The sewing machinery industry, as a crucial component of the light manufacturing sector, serves as a significant pillar for the digital and intelligent upgrading of downstream industries such as textiles and apparel, automotive interiors, and home furnishing. It is also a quintessential representative of China's high-end equipment manufacturing industry. China's production of sewing machinery accounts for over 87% of the global market share, with CNC equipment accounting for more than 90%. The quality of these products has reached the global advanced level, with some indicators surpassing those of international brands. Innovation-driven development has become the primary driving force behind the sustained growth of the entire industry. During the 14th Five-Year Plan period (2021-2025), the total number of industry patent applications exceeded 36,000. The adoption of smart sewing machinery production solutions such as intelligent workshops and digital factories are accelerating, and the shift from production-oriented manufacturing to service-oriented manufacturing is gathering pace.
