Review of relevant policies issued in China regarding instruments and meters in the past decade.

With the further development of science and technology and industrial intelligence, instruments and meters have become important "tools" for the development of science and technology. Our country's renowned scientist Mr. Wang Daheng once pointed out: "Machines are tools for transforming the world, while instruments are tools for understanding the world." Instruments and meters are now the "multipliers" of industrial production, the "pioneers" of scientific research, the "combat power" in the military, and the "material judges" of modern social activities. It is evident thatinstruments and metersplay a very important role in promoting the development of science and technology and the national economy in today's era.
Since the development of instruments and meters is very important for the development of industrial society, it will inevitably receive strong support from national policies. Therefore, formulating relevant policies is quite important. Today,Shaanxi Huibo Electromechanical's technical editor will take everyone through the relevant policies in the field of instruments and meters in our country over the past decade. Let's take a look!
In 2010, the Ministry of Science and Technology issued the "National Torch Program Priority Development Technology Fields (2010)", focusing on supporting new types of instruments and meters that have breakthrough developments in precision, range, environmental adaptability, or functionality, as well as new types of instruments and meters that use new principles, new structures, and new materials.
In 2013, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology issued the "Guidelines for the Development of Key Common Technologies in the Industry (2013)", clearly listing "mass spectrometry analysis and detection technology" as a key common technology in the industry with characteristics such as application foundation, relevance, systematization, and openness, prioritizing its development.
In 2016, the State Council issued the "National Innovation-Driven Development Strategy Outline" and the "13th Five-Year National Science and Technology Innovation Plan", among which, the "National Innovation-Driven Development Strategy Outline" targets major national strategic needs, builds a number of national laboratories with international standards, highlights interdisciplinary and collaborative innovation, develops high-end scientific research instruments and equipment, and improves the self-sufficiency level of scientific research equipment;
The "13th Five-Year National Science and Technology Innovation Plan" requires breakthroughs in key technologies such as microfluidic chips, single-molecule detection, and automated nucleic acid detection, developing major products such as fully automated nucleic acid detection systems, medical mass spectrometers, high-throughput liquid phase suspension chips, and rapid pathological diagnosis systems, as well as developing a batch of early diagnosis and precise treatment diagnostic reagents for major diseases and high-precision diagnostic products suitable for grassroots medical institutions, enhancing the competitiveness of China's in vitro diagnostic industry;
In the same year, the China Instrument and Meter Association issued the "13th Five-Year Development Plan for the Instrument and Meter Industry", taking the opportunity of national key industry safety, autonomy, and controllability to promote the process of core technology autonomy for key products, striving to basically form the basic guarantee capability for national large engineering projects, key application field control systems, and precision testing instruments, as well as the basic support capability for major scientific and technological projects requiring control systems and precision testing instruments;
In 2017, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology issued the "High-end Intelligent Remanufacturing Action Plan (2018-2020)", proposing to strengthen key technology innovation and industrial application of intelligent remanufacturing, promote the research and industrial application of intelligent remanufacturing equipment, and accelerate the formulation of intelligent remanufacturing standards, among eight major tasks;
In 2018, the National Bureau of Statistics issued the "Classification of Strategic Emerging Industries (2018)" which included "manufacturing of experimental analysis instruments" in the category of "high-end equipment manufacturing industry", vigorously developing scientific instruments;
In 2019, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council issued the "Guiding Opinions on Promoting the Healthy Development of Small and Medium-sized Enterprises", which is based on specialized, refined, distinctive, and innovative small and medium-sized enterprises, cultivating a batch of "little giant" enterprises with outstanding main business, strong competitiveness, and good growth in the fields of core basic components (parts), key basic materials, advanced basic processes, and industrial technology foundations;
In 2020, the Ministry of Science and Technology, the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Education, the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and the Natural Science Foundation Committee issued the "Strengthening the 'From 0 to 1' Basic Research Work Plan", which aims to strengthen the design and research and development of major scientific and technological infrastructure and high-end general scientific instruments, focusing on the research and development, engineering, and industrialization of high-end general and specialized major scientific instruments and equipment, promoting the rapid development of the high-end scientific instrument and equipment industry.
And in this year's "14th Five-Year Plan", it is clearly stated that we should "strengthen the research and manufacturing of high-end scientific research instruments and equipment."
Finally, the technical editor of Shaanxi Huibo Electromechanical wants to say: In recent years, with the in-depth development of information technology, biomedical, materials science, and nanotechnology, the demand for instruments and meters in our country has also made qualitative and quantitative breakthroughs. Our country has formulated relevant policies to promote the development of the instrument and meter industry. Instrument and meter manufacturing enterprises must continuously improve their independent innovation capabilities, accelerate the shaping of domestic high-end instrument and meter equipment brands, and promote the true high-quality development of the instrument and meter manufacturing industry, which will usher in a broader market development space for the instrument and meter industry.
