First, security cable product introduction Security cable refers to a series of flame retardant and fire resistant, high temperature resistant, low temperature, low inductance, low noise, green, low smoke, halogen-free, anti-termite rat, waterproof and moisture resistant Specially structured cable products.
1. Flame-retardant and halogen-free low-smoke cables According to statistics, fire caused by electrical accidents accounted for half of the fire accidents, and 80% of fires occurred in shopping malls, song and dance entertainment venues were caused by electrical accidents. In electrical fires, due to the aging of cables and overloaded use, they account for a large proportion. Ordinary PVC cables (insulated and sheathed) burn quickly and promote fire. They lose their power supply capacity within 1 to 2 minutes. The black smoke emitted by combustion and decomposition can reach the level where the fingers cannot be seen, causing difficulty in breathing and evacuation. Even more serious is that PVC will decompose and release hydrogen chloride (HCL) and dioxins and other highly toxic and corrosive halogen gases when it burns. It is the main cause of death caused by fire (accounting for 80% of the fire death factors), and it forms rarities. Hydrochloric acid conductive film adheres to electrical equipment, severely degrades the insulation performance of the equipment and creates secondary disasters that are difficult to remove. Many countries in Europe have adopted flame-retardant, halogen-free and low-smoke cables through legislation and regulations to restrict or prohibit the use of PVC cables in buildings.
1) Fire-retardant cable Flame-retardant cable shall have flame-retardant properties. According to GB/T18380.3-2001 "Bundle Wire and Cable Burning Test Method", it can be divided into three flame retardant grades A, B, and C. Grade A The highest flame-retardant performance.
The American Institute of Standards and Technology conducted comparative combustion tests on flame-retardant and non-flame-retardant wires. The test results are as follows:
a. Flame-retardant wires can provide more than 15 times of escape time than non-flame-retardant wires;
b. The material burned by the flame-retardant wire is only 1/2 of the non-flame-retardant wire;
c. The heat release rate of flame-retardant wires is only 1/4 of non-flame-retardant wires;
d. The amount of toxic gas generated by combustion is only 1/3 of non-flame-retardant products;
e, smoke production performance, flame retardant products and non-fire-retardant products no significant difference.
2) Halogen-free and low-smoke halogen-free low-smoke cables shall have halogen-free, low-smoke and flame retardant properties, according to GB/T17650.2-1999 (halogen-free test) and GB/T17651.2-1998 (low Smoke test), the indicators required to achieve: PH value ≥ 4.3, conductivity r ≤ 10us/mm, minimum light transmittance T ≥ 60%.
At present, many domestic cable manufacturers can produce flame-retardant or flame-retardant halogen-free low-smoke cable with technical level and quality up to international standards.
3) Application requirements for flame-retardant and halogen-free low-smoke cable Requirements for flame-retardant and halogen-free low-smoke cables are stipulated in the current regulations, which are only required in principle and have no detailed regulations. Except for the relevant contents of the current fire protection regulations, Article 3.4.7 of the “Code for the Design of Electrical Engineering Cables†GB50217-94 stipulates: “In locations where low-toxicity, non-flammable fire protection is required, cross-linked polyethylene, polyethylene, or ethylene-propylene rubber can be used. Insulation and other non-halogenated cables. When fire prevention has low toxicity requirements, PVC cables should not be used.†Chapter 7 of the specification is a special chapter of “Fire Protection and Prevention of Delayed Combustion of Cablesâ€. Article 7.0.6.3 stipulates: “The same channel In the meantime, it is not appropriate to arrange non-flame-free cables and flame-retardant cables in parallel."
In 2002, Shanghai Municipality compiled the "Design Code for Fire Protection of Civil Building Wire and Cable" DBJ08-93-2002. The general requirements for the selection of cables were as follows:
1 Cables laid directly and concealed through pipes can use ordinary cables.
2 Wires used for ordinary equipment circuits can use ordinary wires when piped in dark.
3 When the cables are laid in bundles, fire-retardant cables should be used.
(4) In places where the external fire is required to maintain the integrity of the line for a certain period of time and maintain power, the line shall be fire-resistant or mineral insulated.
5 When selecting the cable, the flame retardant level should be selected according to the place of use and laying conditions. However, the flame retardant and fire retardant fire-retardant cables used in the same building should have the same flame retardant rating.
6 Except for the cable laid directly and the cables used for pipe laying, it is used in special grades and first class places (super high-rise buildings are special grade places, a type of high-rise buildings and important multi-storey public buildings, underground buildings are one The cable for class venues should be halogen-free and low-smoke type, and the cable used for secondary sites should be halogen-free and low-smoke type.
7 The flammability rating of cables shall be determined based on the non-metallic content of the cables within the same cable channel: Class A flame retardant is applicable to special grade places, Class B is applicable to Class I places, and Class C is applicable to Grades II and III.
2. Fire-resistant cables According to the fire test index of fire-resistant cables (for fire temperature and time), the test method for fire resistance of wires and cables GB 12666.6-90 provides: A-class 950-1000°C, 90 minutes; Class-B 750-800 °C, 90 minutes. The IEC331-1970 standard specifies 750°C for 3 hours, which is equivalent to China's Class B standard. From the latest draft of IEC60331 provided by the IEC for the latest vote, the temperature of the fire is still 750°C to 800°C for 3 hours. If this standard is passed, China will adopt the same, then the fire-resistant cable will have no A and B points.
Fire-resistant cables can be divided into flame-retardant fire-resistant cables and non-flame-retardant fire-resistant cables according to their non-metallic materials. The domestic products of fire-resistant cables are coated with mica-coated conductors and extruded flame-retardant sheathes. Most of them are Class B products. Currently, A-class standards include the use of special synthetic mica tapes and mineral insulation (copper copper cores, Magnesium oxide insulation, also known as MI) fire-resistant cable. The mineral insulated fire-resistant cable has the characteristics of non-combustible, smoke-free, corrosion-resistant, non-toxic, impact-resistant and spray-resistant. It is called fire-proof cable. The fire performance is most prominent in the fire-resistant cable variety, but the manufacturing process is more complicated and the price High, limited manufacturing length, large bending radius, and easy moisture-proof, cross-section 25mm2 and above specifications can only provide single-core products, and must use permanent dedicated terminals and intermediate connectors, and the installation is complicated. As with flame-retardant products, many domestic manufacturers can provide full-rated series of fire-resistance wire and cable products with technical standards and quality that meet international standards.
3. Environmentally friendly cable Environmentally friendly cable is a flame-retardant ecological material cable, also known as EM cable. Its characteristic is that it will not cause environmental pollution and harm to human body during the entire life cycle of product manufacturing, use and disposal. .
From a technical point of view, environmental protection cables are higher-level products of wire and cable, which are in line with the trend of the times and development trends. They have received extensive attention upon their arrival. Developed countries such as Europe, the United States, and Japan have formulated a series of standards for production and application of products. , vigorously promote the application. The characteristics of environmentally friendly cables are:
a, Halogen-free, combustion does not produce harmful gases and corrosive gases;
b. Low smoke when burning;
c, with the same flame retardant properties as current polyolefin cables;
d, does not contain lead and other heavy metals, does not contain environmental hormones, does not pollute the soil;
e, can be reused.
The Olympic Games project in 2008 all use environmentally friendly building materials, including environmentally friendly cables. Subsequently, environmental protection cables will gradually be widely used in important public projects4. The rodent-proof and termite-resistant cable research results show that the rat bite wire and cable is not only a molar, but also a part of eating; at the same time, the number of cases of termite damage to cables in the wet place in the southern region has gradually increased, so the cable against rodent and termite in construction projects Harmful work can not be ignored. At present, some domestic manufacturers have been able to produce series of rodent-proof and termite-proof wire and cable products that meet the standards.
II. Status Quo of Security Cable Industry and Forecast The booming and rapid development of the information industry has led to a growing demand for wire and cable products. Wire and cable products of various specifications have been applied to communications, networks, security, and fire protection. And other emerging high-tech industries.
After more than 20 years of vigorous development, the security industry in China has continuously expanded its scope of application. From the initial security protection of important government units and key departments, it has developed into a full range of security for businesses, schools, communities, and families. From single technology, single project to the direction of system integration. At the same time, digital, intelligent, networked new technologies and products have also entered the security industry, and now has more than 10,000 manufacturers, distribution, engineering and service providers. According to incomplete statistics, in 2007, the expenditure on dedicated security cables for intelligent building communities in China reached 8 billion yuan. Each year, the sales of special cable products nationwide is about 40 billion yuan, and is growing rapidly at a rate of about 20% per year. Security cables are the main components of China's special cables, and there is ample room for future development.
As an important connection and transmission medium, wire and cable products are constantly updated and developed in the security industry, and their usage is also increasing. Since the 1990s, the manufacturing of wire and cable industry in China has developed rapidly. At present, the production scale has ranked second in the world, second only to the United States. According to incomplete statistics, the total output value of China's wire and cable industry reached 160 billion yuan by 2004, and the demand for wire and cable products in the security industry was 2 billion yuan. With the full application of the security system in social life, the wire and cable industry is once again facing enormous development opportunities and broad market prospects.
From 2004 to 2008, the average annual compound growth rate of China's security electronics industry reached 28.2%, much higher than the average global growth rate over the same period. From 2006 to 2007, under the impetus of Olympic Games safety construction, safe cities, and the second batch of science and technology strong police projects, China's security electronics industry has entered a period of rapid development and there has been a peak of growth. In 2008, although the global financial crisis had a negative impact on the export of security electronic products and domestic corporate projects, the security electronics industry in China still maintained a rapid growth rate. In 2008, the industrial scale reached 51.38 billion yuan, an increase of 22.5% over the same period of last year, and the growth rate has dropped from 2007. In 2009, the scale of the industry led by major projects such as the Shanghai World Expo, the Guangzhou Asian Games, and the Shenzhen Universiade reached 57.13 billion yuan, an increase of 11.2% year-on-year. It is expected that by 2011, the industry scale will reach 83.58 billion yuan.
Third, the security cable industry problems 1. Smaller companies in the wire and cable industry require high-performance production and testing equipment to ensure product quality. In order to fully ensure the high efficiency of the production process and material control, some mainstream companies in the domestic wire and cable industry have invested a few years ago to introduce domestic and foreign advanced equipment units and testing equipment. These advanced equipments range from a few million to as much as tens of millions of yuan. Although high-performance equipment plays a crucial role in product quality control, the high price makes many companies deter high-performance products when selecting equipment.
With the rapid development of the domestic security industry, a large number of wire and cable products are used in various types of security systems. As the blood vessels and meridians transmitted by the system, they undertake important tasks of connection and transmission. Compared with other industries such as communications, electric power, and broadcasting and television, the security cable industry has objective conditions such as late start-up and small-scale industries. At present, the security cable industry operating manufacturers are uneven, most of them are small and medium-sized enterprises throughout the country, the annual production capacity and sales are generally not more than 10 million yuan, operating in the security industry's annual sales of more than 50 million Yuan's cable manufacturers are handful, and the backbone enterprises that can exceed 100 million yuan are even more. In contrast, the main wire and cable manufacturers operating and serving other power, broadcasting, telecommunications and other industries, whether it is the size of the enterprise, the advanced level of production equipment, the ability to research and develop new products and technologies, the control ability of product quality, and the employees The quality is far more than the current cable companies in the security industry.
According to incomplete investigations, more than 70% of cable manufacturers working in the security industry are still using equipment in the 1970s and 1980s due to restrictions in various aspects. Some manufacturers even use equipment that has been eliminated by regular manufacturers. . In general, the total investment in such equipment is less than RMB 1 million, and a considerable proportion of the manufacturers even stay in the small workshop-style production stage, investing only several hundred thousand yuan to purchase a few necessary production equipment. The production process needs to be completed by hand. There is no professional testing equipment and testing methods, and production process management is chaotic. Small business owners often play a leading role in the production, supply, and sales of products. On-site production workers are both manufacturers of products and inspectors of product shipments. At the same time, due to the small size of the industry players, it is impossible to introduce some high-quality professional talents, leaving almost no space for product quality control and product development. Under such production equipment and management conditions, the quality of the product and the reliability of its use performance cannot be guaranteed at all. The research and development of professional high-performance products is even more inconceivable. If such a cable product is selected for use in security projects, there is no doubt that a time bomb is buried in the system. The quality consequences and adverse effects it brings will be enormous and even irreparable. At the same time, many types of cable products for security applications that are often required for security projects cannot be fully provided due to the lack of supply capabilities of small manufacturers. If cable products of different manufacturers are used in the same project, it may affect the use of cables in construction. Security system transmission of some products in the compatibility.
Therefore, at present, the manufacturers of cable products in the security industry are small in size and cannot form industrial advantages. The limitations of production capacity, research and development capabilities, and management have affected the reliability of product quality to a certain extent, resulting in security system engineering. The effectiveness of the transmission cannot be fully guaranteed, thus affecting the quality of the entire security project.
With the continuous development of the security industry, the majority of users and security engineering construction continue to increase the requirements and emphasis on cable products. The healthy development of the security industry requires the development of a number of cable companies with a certain scale of enterprises, focusing on quality management and product development. At present, some companies in the industry fully realize this, and some mainstream companies have also increased their capital in equipment. Input. Leading high-precision and free molds in the wire and cable industry, laser diameter measuring instruments, on-line testing equipment and serial production lines, automatic coding rice meters, automatic ring forming machines and other advanced equipment are widely used in various production processes. High-performance advanced equipment not only greatly improves the quality of the product, but also effectively controls the material loss, increases the production speed, and reduces the production cost. The produced cable products are widely used in various domestic and foreign security projects. In the system, the effectiveness of the transmission part of the security engineering system is guaranteed.
2. Significant differences in the nature of enterprises Security cable production companies in accordance with the size of the company and the characteristics of operations can be divided into the following four categories:
1) International companies International companies have good brand appeal and excellent service guarantees, and product quality is stable and reliable. However, due to high product prices, they are not easily accepted by general users, so they only have a small part of the market in domestic high-end security systems. Share. However, in terms of security cable products, most of these high-end international brands are produced in the country, or commissioned domestic production companies to OEM production.
2) National professional manufacturers This kind of company has a certain scale of enterprises, has relatively good production and testing equipment, product quality can be guaranteed, and brand and service awareness is strong. Individual companies have long been engaged in the production and operation of security cable products, have strong product R&D capabilities, and have expanded their domestic markets through direct sales and channel agent distribution. At present, there are individual large-scale production companies whose sales of security cable products have exceeded 100 million yuan. Such manufacturers are familiar with the security industry, understand the product and engineering requirements of the security system, various types of certification are complete, product quality meets national standards, and can fully ensure the effective operation of the cable in the security system. Domestically regulated engineering companies with high reputation and users who attach importance to the quality of engineering supporting products usually choose products of such manufacturers and gradually become long-term partners. Such manufacturers are mainly concentrated in China's Yangtze River Delta and Pearl River Delta region.
As the most important cable product research and development base in China, Shanghai has concentrated on well-known R&D and production units of wire and cable products such as the Shanghai Wire and Cable Research Institute, the 23rd Institute of China Electronics Technology Group Corporation, and the Shanghai Cable Factory. The cable product R&D, manufacturing, and supporting capabilities are the strongest in the country. This advantage is also reflected in the production of cable products in the security industry. Some well-known international security companies have begun to consider the gradual transfer of production and manufacturing links to mainland China after an extensive market inspection. They have adopted the form of OEM to organize production and processing. Some of the security cable companies in the Shanghai region have started These internationally renowned companies co-produce and export security cable products to foreign countries and sell them all over the world.
As the leading and window of the domestic security industry, Shenzhen has also concentrated on a large number of production and sales companies in the industry. The cable companies in Shenzhen have entered the domestic security cable market earlier with the development of the local security industry. Through the cooperation with local security product manufacturers, agents and contractors in Shenzhen, the product’s domestic awareness and Market coverage is high.
3) Local manufacturers There are local security cable manufacturers in most areas in China. They can also be divided into two types: The first type is a state-owned or joint-stock cable enterprise with a considerable scale. Security cables are just one of them. product. Such manufacturers have strong technical strength and reliable product quality. However, because of the lack of professionalism in production or the high cost of production due to the factors of the management system, there is a disadvantage of high market prices and long lead times. The second type is small manufacturers of personal investment because of lack of funds, etc. For various reasons, the product specifications are single and the quality is difficult to guarantee. To a certain extent, there are cases of counterfeiting, cutting corners, and reducing the number of meters. This kind of product is applied to the construction of the project and often poses various hidden dangers for the system. However, because of its familiarity with local market conditions, abundant human resources, and flexible operation, it can also occupy an appropriate market share in the region.
4) Three non-manufacturers These manufacturers are basically the workshop-type production mentioned in the previous section. Some manufacturers do not even have a company to register, and none of the relevant certificates and quality inspection reports. The products are basically sold at low prices in the local electronics markets. Way to sell. The quality of products and service guarantees of such manufacturers are beyond our reach.
3. The market operation is not standardized The security industry is an emerging industry. Security cable companies have significant differences in terms of the size of the enterprise, the nature of the enterprise, and the quality of the product. Therefore, it is inevitable that there are some non-standard areas in the market operation. In the following points:
1) Service security needs to be improved The wire and cable industry is a traditional industry. The overall quality and cultural level of employees are relatively low. Most of the traditional sales model is to establish a facade in the sales of hardware cables in various regions or in the electronic computer market, waiting for customers to come to the door. This kind of business service awareness is generally not strong. In recent years, as the industry’s leading security cable companies improve their sales and service models, and constantly improve and deepen their marketing strategies, they have fundamentally changed the traditional sales appearance, brand awareness and service awareness of cable in the security industry. Significantly improved.
The domestic mainstream security cable manufacturers currently concentrated in the Yangtze River Delta and Pearl River Delta regions generally adopt marketing strategies that are based on local and national markets. Most of the market channels are built through agents, or externally known as branches and offices, and are still internally accounted for independently for internal sales. The drawback of this sales method is that the agent or contractor lacks loyalty to the brand, and may sell the products of multiple manufacturers at the same time, or only short-term agents of a certain brand of products. This virtually eliminates the practical significance of quality assurance commitments that make products used in security systems. Users and contractors in the purchase of cable products for engineering construction or system operation require effective and timely service follow-up by the product manufacturers, and the service links that the users should enjoy will be greatly reduced by the agents. It is common for some agents to mislead the user about the use of products and products in the system and mislead the user. Even without regard to the true performance of the products, the quality guarantee period is irresponsibly promised, and even worse is the fact that some agents have their homes. There are counterfeits that counterfeit certain well-known brands and disrupt the market. In addition, due to poor cooperation between the agents and the manufacturers, they could not be supplied in time and thus affected the project.
At the same time, with the continuous development of the security industry, the scale of some security cable manufacturers has been continuously expanding, and management capabilities and service awareness have also been continuously strengthened. Such manufacturers set up branches or offices in major cities in China, and the market channels are flat. With effective and direct management, the interests of users have been maximally guaranteed.
2) Vicious competition in the market With the rapid development of the domestic security industry, the original security cable manufacturers have expanded their production capacity, and other cable manufacturers and some newly established companies have also joined the security industry, and the market competition has intensified. . In order to increase market share and obtain a certain amount of living space, most security cable manufacturers often adopt low-cost strategies. When the sales price of a product is close to or even lower than the actual cost of product manufacturing, some manufacturers can only maintain operations and production by means of cutting corners, reducing the number of yards, and shoddy in order to ensure profits and control costs. In recent years, the prices of raw materials required for cable production in the international market have continued to rise, but the sales price of domestic cable products has been limited. Formed a small manufacturer price does not rise, the quality of declining, large manufacturers price increase is limited, the profit is significantly reduced, not only affects the normal operation and development of enterprises, but also endanger the domestic security industry's healthy and orderly development and the interests of the majority of security users.
The most direct users of security cable products are often security system integrators and contractors. For some integrators and engineers who are still in the early stage of development, the scale of the company is very limited. The management mechanism needs to be further improved, and there are still certain loopholes in the procurement management of products. This makes some of the sales of security cable sales by individuals or family members as the main body of sales or manufacturers have the means of rebates or rebates in the form of sales means, undermining the good market order.
However, some companies with considerable scale and strength and a certain degree of social responsibility have fully realized the serious consequences of this low-cost vicious competition for the entire security industry. Therefore, they are vigorously promoting the sale of security cable products in a clear and real-value manner. Although this type of sales may affect the company’s sales profit and market space in a certain period of time, in the long run, it is positive to promote the healthy and orderly development of the entire security industry by standardizing the security industry market. .
3) Low-quality products are popular The security industry is an emerging industry in China. Users and contractors pay great attention to the selection of equipment or other equipment during the purchase or construction process, but often neglect the quality or service of cable products. Coupled with fierce price competition in domestic security engineering bidding, engineers often consider price as the primary factor in the purchase of cable products, coupled with the particularity of cable products, their quality and some performance and service life. Such as the need for professionals or equipment to identify, which to a large extent caused a certain percentage of substandard products in various security systems are widely used, and some even national key projects. Due to the use of low-quality and inferior security cable products caused by problems in the quality of the project or project acceptance can not pass through other incidents, has caused a negative impact on the reputation of the engineering firm, but also to the user's interests suffered losses.
Need to cause the industry to attach great importance to: Because the construction and application of cable products are generally hidden projects, the quality of the product quality can not be observed directly from the outside, so the hazard is also hidden. Randomly select some unqualified products, so that the normal service life of the system can not be guaranteed. In the end, digging the walls and digging the ground will not only cause losses, but will also seriously endanger the safety of users' lives and property during use.
4. The user and the project engineer do not pay enough attention The security project is a project in which a number of different functional devices are combined with each other, and it is the cables that are responsible for the connection between these various devices. The correct use and purchase of cable products will directly affect the compatibility and stability among various devices. However, many users or engineers have not yet fully realized the important role of cables in system engineering. Usually spend a lot of energy on the security engineering equipment from the front end to the back end, from domestic to foreign countries, from the price to the service and other aspects of detailed understanding and selection, but for the middle of the cable plays an important role in transmission is not enough Pay attention. Some engineering associations will temporarily go to the local electronics market after all the equipment has arrived at the venue. If they do not understand the quality performance and service guarantee of the cable products, they just pay attention to the price and buy it back. Some will even be perfunctory in the purchase of cable products, and directly require the equipment vendors to purchase together, just holding the idea of ​​"cheap on the line." This phenomenon is a certain percentage in the current domestic security projects.
Many experienced engineers have encountered similar situations during construction. For example, if a device has a problem, it is normal to detect the devices one by one. When connected together, they cannot work. After careful investigation of the reasons, it is known that a fundamental mistake has occurred in the selection of cable products. After the appropriate cable is replaced, the problem is solved. From this we can see that in the course of construction or use of the project, if we do not completely change this erroneous concept of material selection, such problems will continue to emerge in an endless stream. Optional cable products, in addition to low prices, quality and service are not guaranteed, not only in the construction process to the engineer to bring unnecessary trouble and trouble, but also for the late project acceptance and after-sales service with A series of hidden dangers.
5. The application of new products is not popular enough. The cable industry is a traditional industry where the development of technology tends to mature. Since the 1990s, China's wire and cable manufacturing industry has developed rapidly. The current production scale ranks second in the world, second only to the United States. By 2005, the total output value of China's wire and cable industry had reached 160 billion yuan. With the rapid development of human social science and technology, China's information industry has also flourished since the middle of the 20th century. Wire and cable products of various specifications and models of new processes and new materials have appeared one after another and are widely used in communication systems, networks, and fire protection engineering systems. A large number of cable products with unique performance and special structure, such as flame-retardant and fire-resistant, high temperature and low temperature resistance, low inductance and low noise, green environmental protection, low smoke, halogen-free, anti-termite and rodent-proof, waterproof and moisture-proof, etc. It has been applied in all walks of life. Cable products have become essential for people's social life and production. As an important transmission medium in an information-based intelligent system, it plays a more important role in connection, so that the system's security, security, and quick effects can be normalized. Compared with other industries, in addition to some major or national key projects in domestic security system engineering, the application of such new technology and new materials has not been popularized for various reasons. In sharp contrast to this, in the western developed countries, the above new technologies and new products have been mandatory requirements of the government or related departments, and are widely used in various types of security engineering systems.
With the continuous improvement of people’s living standards and social productivity, China’s information construction will be fully carried out, and the requirements for safety awareness and security system engineering will be further enhanced, and the application of new technologies and new products in domestic security systems will become more and more More attention and popularity.
6. Industry standards urgently need to introduce China's security industry after decades of development, from scratch, from small to large, from a hundred years ago, flourishing, to the current stage of product improvement, gradually expand the scale of business enterprises, the management system continues Sound, increasingly standardized market operations, and continuous improvement in the quality of talents are making great strides in the direction of internationalization and modernization. Then, how to ensure the healthy development of China's security industry and improve the competitiveness of the international market, this is a question that management departments and business enterprises are jointly thinking about.
The current status quo is that the security industry as a domestic emerging high-tech industry has achieved rapid development in recent years. However, due to the lack of industry technical standards, there is no uniform standard for practitioners to refer to, creating a chaotic situation in local market competition. In a certain period of time, it has affected the healthy development of the industry.
Mr. Liu Xiqing, Secretary-General of the National Security and Alarm System Standard Technical Committee, pointed out: "Industry standards are the basis for the development of enterprises, because socialized production requires specialized division of labor, and this division of labor requires the existence of standards. There is no standard. Socialized division of labor and collaboration cannot be achieved.As a new industry, the security industry has gradually formed a consensus after years of development: If an industry does not have its own technical standards and national standards, the long-term development and prosperity of the industry will With the absence of trees, the market will not be able to regulate and the technology will not be able to develop. There will be no way to improve the competitiveness of the industry and enterprises."
In connection with the current application and development status of the domestic cable industry in other industries, when cables are used in the power industry, the industry standards for power cables in the power industry are implemented; in the communications industry, standards for communication cables in the communications industry are implemented. , In the broadcasting and TV industry, fire protection industry, etc. are combined with the performance of cable products and the application requirements of the industry, developed the relevant industry standards. However, due to various objective conditions, the security industry has not yet established technical standards for cable products. In this way, on the one hand, there is no standard for users and contractors when designing and purchasing products; on the other hand, some cable manufacturers with large and small, uneven cables enter the security market one after another. The vicious competition that leads to low quality and low price can neither guarantee product quality nor restrict the healthy development of some regular enterprises.
Therefore, the development and introduction of technical standards for the security cable industry is very urgent and necessary.
Fourth, the development trend of cable in the security industry 1. New technology products are widely used, and product technology has entered the era of standardization. In order to better promote the security industry and ensure the harmonious development of social life and work, security cable products must be developed in a safer and faster direction. China is one of the most important cable product R&D and production bases in the world. Currently, it has fire-retardant and fire-resistant, high-temperature and low-temperature resistant, low-inductance and low-noise, green environmental protection, low-smoke and halogen-free, anti-termite and rodent-proof, water and moisture proof, etc. A series of cable products with unique performance and special structure have already formed certain productivity. With the continuous improvement of social security and system security requirements, through the extensive publicity, promotion, and collaboration of governments, industries, and companies, the above-mentioned high-performance, high-efficiency and safe new technology cable products will surely be as developed in Western countries. Security systems are widely used.
Industry standards are the basis for the development of industries and enterprises. Product technical standards are an effective guarantee for product quality. With the development and maturity of China's security industry, the national authorities are pushing for the standardization of the security industry. At present, the development of technical standards for security cable products has been incorporated into the next phase of the work plan. With the joint efforts of the government, industry and enterprises, the production and quality assurance of the security cable products will be followed in a rule-based manner. The security cable technology and application will be more reliable and professional. The field is moving fast.
2. Industrial concentration continues to increase, leading companies occupy the mainstream market China's security industry starts from scratch, grows in competition, and has developed into a certain scale after decades of development. With the promotion of global economic integration, there will inevitably be leading companies among the different products in the industry, and the degree of industrial concentration will continue to increase. Only industry concentration has emerged in the industry, leading companies emerged and the industry can be established to form a common development philosophy. Only from the perspective of the most basic survival considerations can companies enter the most important areas of scientific management, core technologies, and core products to promote the healthy development of the industry, so as to avoid unfair competition of low quality and low end. The chaotic competition between the large and small, miscellaneous wire and cable manufacturers, the lack of technical strength in the industry, and the size of funds will gradually end for local interests and vicious competition.
At present, leading companies in the domestic security industry have begun to show signs, and the domestic security cable market has formed a number of mainstream companies. These enterprises have expanded through continuous product extension and channels, through continuous improvement of enterprise management and team building, whether in the brand The degree of influence or the overall improvement of product quality, service specification has been increasingly accepted by the industry and users. It is believed that with the continuous improvement of industrial concentration, with the continuous expansion of the production scale of such enterprises, the productivity generated by the scale will be fully reflected in the market, and cost-effective products plus standardized services will occupy the security cable. The vast majority of market share.
3. The user's attention has been continuously strengthened, and “full-line compatibility and full-service†are all in sight. The cable products are responsible for the transmission of important data, images and other information in the security system. Due to the insufficient attention of the user or the engineering firm to the purchase of cable products, problems such as the improper selection of the cable products and the quality problems that affect the entire system engineering are not uncommon, causing certain losses and negative impacts. The profound lessons of the past have led more and more users and contractors to pay close attention to the quality and correct use of cable products, and gradually changed the use of security cables. . Through the concerted efforts and publicity of governments, industries, engineering companies, and production companies, the phenomenon of coexistence of high-end equipment and low-quality cables in security engineering systems is becoming less and less. The important role of users in the use of security cables in the system is also increasing. The more you pay attention.
Security engineering requires a perfect combination of different functional devices and the reliability of the transmission part of the product is critical to the entire security system. Although the security cable is the main component of the transmission part, the compatibility and consistency of the transmission performance of the cable product between different model specifications and the compatibility, matching, and stability between the cable and the connected related equipment are also frequent. Ignored by industry users. The future security cable manufacturers are not limited to the provision of simple products at the current stage, but also need to continue to extend the product chain while strengthening the service concept to provide users with a full range of compatible products, and provide the full range of products for the correct and reasonable use. The technical support and service will surely become the market development trend of the security industry.
4. International cooperation and development are irresistible. “To be a global security company and to build an international brand of China’s security industry†has become the development goal and enterprise mission of outstanding enterprises in the industry. Guided by such beliefs, China's security products have extensively penetrated into many areas of the world's security industry. International cooperation between domestic enterprises and advanced developed countries has been launched in all directions. At present, several of China's most powerful security cable companies are also following the international trend of market development. Several years ago, they have started to fully formulate and launch a global development strategy. They have extensive cooperation and exchanges in technology, capital, and management. The introduction of advanced technology and management concepts of foreign companies has enabled the company's strength to be rapidly upgraded and developed. And actively go abroad to seek international markets, increase product exports, there are a large number of security cable products exported to the rest of the world.
Security cable industry market conditions and development prospects
