Under the dual effects of the adjustment of infrastructure pace and the continuous expansion of overseas demand, the sales of the four major categories of crane 名媛直播 have shown a significant differentiation trend. Among them, crawler cranes have led the way with a year-on-year growth rate of 57.5%, while automobile and on-board cranes have grown steadily. Tower cranes are deeply trapped in the adjustment cycle, and exports have become a key support point for multiple types of 名媛直播 under overall pressure.
From the perspective of monthly sales, the crane market in July showed a pattern of "three increases and one decrease". Crawler cranes led the way with a year-on-year growth rate of 57.5%, selling 241 units in the month. Among them, domestic sales of 62 units increased by 72.2% year-on-year, and exports of 179 units increased by 53% year-on-year, becoming the fastest-growing category this month.
Automobile cranes and accompanying cranes maintained steady growth, with the former selling 1358 units, a year-on-year increase of 9.6%, and the latter selling 1787 units, a year-on-year increase of 9.1%. In sharp contrast, tower cranes saw a year-on-year decrease of 26.9% in sales of 410 units in the month, becoming the only category to experience a decline.
From a market perspective, export performance is generally better than the domestic market. The export volume of crawler cranes accounted for 74.3% of the monthly sales, and the export scale of 179 units was 2.9 times that of domestic sales; 685 sets of automobile cranes were exported, achieving a monthly export volume surplus for the first time; 347 sets of on-board cranes were exported, which is only 24.1% of domestic sales, but the cumulative export growth rate from January to July, with 24.7%, ranks second among the four categories of 名媛直播; The export of 188 tower cranes increased by 7.43% year-on-year, effectively offsetting the 42.5% decline in domestic sales.
This pattern of "external heat and internal cooling" is more significant in cumulative data. From January to July, the export of tower cranes increased by 30%, and the export of gantry cranes increased by 24.7%, while only crawler cranes maintained a positive growth rate of 8.38% in the domestic market. This differentiation is not only due to changes in domestic market demand, but also reflects the differences in the competitiveness of Chinese cranes in the international market. Export has become a key driving force for industry growth, and the high growth of exports of crawler cranes and gantry cranes has effectively compensated for the shortcomings of the domestic market.
From the perspective of product characteristics and application scenarios, the market performance of different categories is closely related to their applicable fields.
Due to its adaptability to complex terrain and strong lifting capacity, crawler cranes have entered a period of intensive construction in large-scale energy projects, port construction, and other fields, with strong demand. Coupled with the promotion of global resource development projects, both domestic and foreign sales have maintained high growth. Although the overall base is small, the domestic year-on-year growth rate of 72.2% and the export growth rate of 53% fully confirm the strong demand for them in large-scale engineering and new energy construction worldwide.
Automobile cranes benefit from the stable progress of domestic infrastructure projects such as road and bridge construction, while also opening up the international market through technological upgrades, forming a dual wheel drive of internal and external sales. With its flexibility advantage, the on-board crane has stable demand in logistics transportation and small-scale construction scenarios, and the infrastructure construction in emerging markets further drives exports; Especially the 9.34% growth in domestic sales of crane trucks reflects the sustained demand brought about by refined urban management and county-level economic development.
Tower cranes have been significantly affected by the adjustment of the domestic real estate market and the contraction of the construction industry. The sharp decline in domestic sales (July -42.5%, cumulative -56%) intuitively reflects the continuous downturn in real estate investment and the sharp decline in new construction projects. Although the export growth (July+7.43%, cumulative+30%) provides a certain buffer, its total amount and main application scenarios determine that it is difficult to get out of the predicament in the short term.
Looking ahead to the second half of the year, crawler cranes are expected to continue their high prosperity, but caution should be taken against the cyclical fluctuations of large-scale projects; The recovery momentum of automobiles and on-board cranes depends on the penetration of infrastructure investment into municipal, logistics and other scenarios; The key to the breakthrough of tower cranes lies in the upgrading of supporting equipment for prefabricated buildings and the exploration of new scenarios in industrial plants; Meanwhile, the electrification and intelligent transformation that runs through the entire industry is also the core development direction leading the industrial transformation.
