Minister of Science and Technology Responds to When Can We Use Chinese-made CNC Machines to Use "China Core"
【China Machine Tool Business Network Domestic News】When can Chinese people use the "China Core"? Domestic CNC lathes, CNC grinding machines, CNC machining centers and other intelligent machines loaded with CNC systems, when can you use the "Chinese core"? At the press conference of the Third Session of the Twelfth National People’s Congress held on the 11th, a reporter asked the Minister of Science and Technology of China Wan Gang.
On March 11, the Third Session of the Twelfth National People's Congress held a press conference in the multi-purpose hall of Media Information Center and invited China's Minister of Science and Technology Wan Gang to answer questions from Chinese and foreign reporters on the reform and development of science and technology.

When can the Chinese people use the "Chinese core"? At the press conference of the Third Session of the Twelfth National People’s Congress held on the 11th, a reporter asked the Minister of Science and Technology of China Wan Gang.
Wan Gang pointed out in his answer that in the past decade, the Chinese integrated circuit market has grown rapidly. In particular, after 2008, the country has organized and implemented three major scientific and technological special projects in the field of electronics and information, focusing on the deployment of innovation chains throughout the industry, and providing focused support for key technologies in the core areas of integrated circuit design, equipment manufacturing, and complete sets of processes. Effectively improved the overall technological level of China's integrated circuit industry and the market competitiveness of related companies.
Regarding China’s specific progress in the field of integrated circuit chips, Wan Gang introduced that China’s supercomputers represented by Shen Wei and others have already developed their own CPUs, and their autonomous embedded CPUs have begun to be used in CNC machine tools and industrial equipment. Related technologies such as "TD-LTE/SCDMA" and independent mobile phone chips have begun commercial use and have occupied a certain share.
"But we must see processors and controllers, memory and other high-end chips of integrated circuits. At present, only a few companies in the world can produce and form a global market." Wan Gang explained that the reasons There are two main aspects. One is that China started late in this field, and the other is insufficient investment.
Wan Gang said that the State Council issued the outline of the development of the integrated circuit industry in 2014, clarified the direction, tasks and concrete measures for promoting the development of the integrated circuit industry in the future, and put forward clear requirements for science and technology. The Ministry of Science and Technology next step in the implementation of the program will focus on accelerating the implementation of the country's major science and technology projects, seize and build strategically important points in the key links, in order to enhance the core competitiveness of China's integrated circuit industry to provide technological support.
Wan Gang also stressed that the improvement of comprehensive competitiveness requires the support of scientific and technological innovation, which requires scientific researchers, companies, and governments to play a joint role. "China's ability for independent innovation is like a growing tree, and we need everyone to care for, support and enhance it."
