In 2024, China's bearing industry delivered another remarkable performance: revenue exceeded 231.5 billion yuan, with production reaching 33.7 billion sets, both setting new historical records. The first quarter of 2025 maintained this momentum, with industrial output value up 11.14% year-on-year and exports increasing by 8.7%, including a 25.3% surge in March alone (68,366 tons). This growth stems not only from stable domestic demand but also breakthroughs in high-end sectors, where Chinese bearings are transitioning from "quantity expansion" to "quality transformation"

2. Wind Power and Robotics: From Followers to Leaders
3. Material Revolution: Doubling Lifespan with "Black Tech"
A team from Dalian University of Technology developed resin-matrix composite bearings, extending service life from 1,000 hours to 6,000 hours while reducing weight to 1/6 of copper alloys. These are now used in aerospace engine fuel pumps
1. Self-Sensing Bearings: From Passive Components to Active Managers
2. 5G + Industrial IoT: Full Digitalization of Production
LUZHOU invested over ¥1 billion to upgrade legacy lines with "5G + Industrial IoT," digitizing design, material selection, production, and delivery. Efficiency surged by 40%
1. Persistent Weaknesses
2. Policy-Driven Upgrades
According to China Machinery Industry Federation forecasts, China’s bearing industry will hit ¥500 billion in total output by 2030, with high-end bearings accounting for 40% and smart bearings penetrating 30% of applications. Innovations like ceramic matrix composite bearings (targeting aerospace) and AI-driven predictive maintenance systems are poised to redefine global standards
As President Xi Jinping emphasized during his 2025 inspection of LYZHOU, "Bearings are the joints of industry. Mastering this core technology is vital for China’s industrial sovereignty." With relentless innovation and strategic investments, China is closing the gap—one precision bearing at a time.
