当中国做的力量手工具的出口价值被射出超出US$4十亿到2007年底，国家的2,000供应商是在促进他们的市场竞争性的疯狂。 一些通过简化操作使价格增量减到最小，而其他在新的设备和被升级的设施将沉重投资。 结果，新工具发行比以前省能源，紧凑，耐久和用户友好的。

执行摘要：

自2005年以来，中国的力量手工工具发货连续地冠上了US$3十亿，年年攀登平均17%根据价值。 外销在2006年临近了US$3.8十亿， 19%从去年。

风俗统计从1月到4月表明两位数增长在2007年内将继续。 如果26%增量被体验在这个期间被承受，出口价值可能年底以前超出US$4十亿。

成长归因于主要产品的更高的价运送了国外而不是对在出口量上的主要变化。 2006年多数供应商提高他们的行情10%到15%和在2007年的前几个月报道关键原材料的成本飞涨例如铜和镍。

由于强烈的价格竞争，特别是在DIY区段，制作商集中于增长的出口量在今后几个月最大化赢利。 结果，他们将努力维护现价或至少限制进一步增加促进被卖的工具的数量。

下列是我们在中国的力量手工具产业看的某些其他主要趋向：
•  多数供应商是乐观的他们能保留附加价增量在10%之内，因为原料费用减慢了他们的上升趋势。 The cost of copper, for example, rose by only 40 percent in the first four months of 2007 after doubling last year.
•  Makers will streamline operations to generate additional savings and maintain competitive prices. Greater investment in advanced machinery and management systems is therefore expected.
•  More environment-friendly designs will be released to increase sales to industrialized markets. Improvements on tool aesthetics, efficiency, service life, durability and ergonomics also will continue.
•  North America and the EU, which currently absorb more than 70 percent of China’s shipments overseas, will continue to be the main markets for power hand tools. Nonetheless, exports to Eastern Europe, the Middle East and Asia are expected to rise as stricter product standards force makers to reduce their dependence on the two traditional markets.

This report covers the four major categories of China-made power hand tools: drills and routers, saws, sanders, planers and grinders, and fastening tools. Product descriptions and factors related to quality and market positioning are discussed in the Products & Prices section.

An overview of the major production processes, which for most makers focus on assembly, QC and packaging, is presented in the Manufacturing section of the report.

The composition of the supplier base and the key characteristics and capability of small, midsize and large makers are covered in the Industry Overview. An analysis of the key issues and trends affecting suppliers is also provided in the section.

To reflect the industry structure, a mix of locally owned companies, state-owned enterprises, and Hong Kong- and foreign-invested ventures were interviewed for this report. More than 70 percent of these are makers with direct-export capability, while the rest are trading companies or manufacturers that ship their products through third-party agents.
