Over 95% of automotive manufacturing parts rely on it—how do "small molds" drive "big industries"?

On April 28, Dongfang Net reporter Wang Weiqiu reported: With annual sales reaching 31 million units, a year-on-year increase of 3%, the penetration rate of new energy vehicles exceeded 50%, and export volume topped the global list at 6.407 million units... In 2024, China's automotive industry achieved landmark development, delivering an outstanding "report card." In automobile manufacturing, over 95% of components rely on mold forming, spanning from body panels to precision electronic parts, as molds permeate the entire product lifecycle. Amid the trends of electrification and intelligence, automotive molds, known as the "mother of industry," are moving from behind the scenes to the forefront, from precise body shaping to integrated battery component forming, from lightweight applications of new materials to multi-process composite mold technology. Molds have become the core support for automakers in reducing costs, improving quality, and rapidly responding to market demands.
