2015 is the final year "twelfth five-year" plan, as the key industries in the field of automation, instrument and meter in this year and achieved good results. Although not released official data, but through January to November data we still can be broadly speculation. Back to the 12th five-year plan, instrument and meter industry in make a great achievement at the same time, still need to bite the bullet and catching up "much starker choices-and graver consequences-in planning objectives.

"Instrument and meter industry five-year development plan of" requirement, by 2015, instrument and meter industry output value or close to one trillion yuan, the average annual growth of around 15%. In 2014, instrument and meter production amounted to 818.567 billion yuan, 1 November 2015, at the same time instrument manufacturing main business of 774.11 billion yuan. In terms of growth rate, growth rate as high as 24.4% in 2011, 1-2015 year-on-year growth of 6.4% in November. From the top can be seen that the 12th five-year plan, the instrument development is rapid, during this time, maximum has made a lot of industry production, output is close to one trillion yuan at the same time, the average annual growth rate has reached the requirement of planning. Looking back on the 12th five-year, instrument and meter industry in China is mainly in three aspects have made a breakthrough.

The first is to strengthen the country's major projects status, meet the demand of the people's production and life. During the planning, actively cultivate the Yangtze river delta, chongqing and the bohai sea three instrument industry agglomeration. Instrument industry base is advantageous to the instrument to form industrial clusters in our country, for each instrument enterprise resource sharing, complementary advantages. Improve the enterprise competitiveness, increase exports, narrowing the trade deficit, achieve steady development. Five-year period, chongqing both more or the joint-stock restructuring, all with the development of the industry base advantage expand their influence. Instrument companies need to firmly grasp instrument industry base, help enterprise steady development, lay the foundation for "much starker choices-and graver consequences-in planning.

The second is to speed up the automatic control system development, attaches great importance to the development of large scientific instruments. During the planning, automation instrument localization and increased investment in instrument research become the two major trends. Automation instrument involves multiple instrument industry and upstream and downstream industries, is very important for the improvement of the planned targets, automation instrument localization in 2015 was a major breakthrough. High-tech, on the other hand, come to the characteristics of the modern instruments and meters, increased the research input to the instrument in our country, reduce the enterprise's r&d, to our instruments the revitalization of the road. The addition of large-scale scientific instrument, has broken the traditional expansion, is bound to further expand the instrument market competition pattern, for our country "much starker choices-and graver consequences-in planning and inject new momentum and energy."

Finally, to gain breakthrough in the new instruments and sensors. During the planning, intelligent manufacturing, industrial, Internet + 4.0, and so on the impact of the new industrial thought, whether from the meter manufacturing itself, still put forward new requirements on the energy and environment, also for the instrument and meter industry has provided a new broad market. During the planning, with the center to develop new type of instrument in our country, strengthen the enterprise design, development and manufacturing capabilities, forming, with sales of billions more instrument enterprise of high and new technology. In terms of sensors, speed up the industrial design and the intellectualized degree of construction, to develop wireless sensors. Planning instrument and meter industry represented by these achievements during the development process.

Countdown to instrument the 12th five-year plan has been packaged, reviews the development of the past, can be said to be the beautiful completed the goal. "Much starker choices-and graver consequences-in planning in the future, in order to increase exports and reduce the trade deficit with China as one of the main target, the road instrument in our country is still a long way to go.
