After the "Twelfth Five-Year Plan", China's informatization began to take the road of integration of informatization and informatization. The work was transferred to the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. This is an important watershed. Since the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology does not subsidize the research and development of industrial software that is considered to be basic scientific research, the state's funding for 3D CAD research and development has almost disappeared.

The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology cannot directly support the research and development of enterprises with funds. It can only subsidize enterprises through pilot demonstrations and the implementation of the two industrialization standards. The key support targets are manufacturing enterprises, and domestic industrial software RD companies basically cannot receive direct support. . An indirect consequence of promoting informatization construction through enterprise applications is that a large amount of funds subsidized by the state for the integration of industrialization and industrialization are used to buy foreign industrial software.

Since then, in the past ten years, there has been almost no clear financial investment to support domestic independent CAD/CAE software. Today, in the field of high-end CAD, PTC, UG (now owned by Siemens), and CATIA have established a monopoly position, while the middle and low-end Solidworks, Autodesk, and SolidEdge are firmly in the grip. China's CAD, CAE are defeated.

With the development of the mainstream of the entire design and RD digital technology turning to the integration of 3D CAD/CAE, due to insufficient attention to this, the capital investment intensity of the entire industry for 3D CAD/CAE has been very low. During the 15th and 11th Five-Year Plans, the total investment in 3D CAD software research and development is about 40-50 million. CAE mainly has some general projects through the National Natural Science Foundation of China, which may be about 10 million a year. investment weakness. Coupled with some indirect promotion of the integration of industrialization and industrialization during the 12th Five-Year Plan, it is estimated that in the three five-year plans, the national investment casting in the research and development of core industrial software such as 3D CAD/CAE is less than 200 million yuan.

Compared with the investment of foreign software manufacturers, the funds invested by the state can be directly crushed in an instant. Ansys, the world's largest CAE simulation software company, invested USD 350 million in research and development in 2016, or about RMB 2 billion.

The one-year research and development investment of a foreign CAE simulation software company is equivalent to 10 times the sum of government investment in 3D CAD/CAE software research and development in the three five-year plans (10th, 11th and 12th five-year plans). Considering that this is a company’s concentrated investment for more than ten years, and the Chinese government’s project adopts a decentralized pepper-sprinkling method, which further highlights the difference in software investment between the two countries.

The United States has always regarded "digital modeling and simulation" as its core strategy. For decades, the American industry has never stopped shouting, and has never stopped taking action. From 1995, it began to accelerate the innovation strategy of digital modeling and simulation. In 2005, Bush’s report proposed computing science. By 2009, relying on modeling and simulation Simulation, until 2010 when high-performance computing talked about modeling and simulation, and now the Advanced Manufacturing Partnership Program, are all around tool modularization and open platforms. In 2014, the 11 key areas identified by the U.S. Presidential Science and Technology Committee have a score. According to indicators such as impact on the country, visualization, informatization, and digital manufacturing are one of the three key areas.

Today, industrial giants such as Siemens, GE, and Schneider are desperately merging and acquiring software to create a company that integrates software and hardware. In terms of the number of lines of code alone, the largest software company in the world is not Microsoft or SAP, but the leader in manufacturing and Lockheed Martin, the world's largest arms dealer.

Today, almost every industrial product is the crystallization of industrial software, and every piece of equipment cannot run without software. However, no one can tell what is in each type of foreign industrial software.

For china cnc turning industry, industrial software is a short board. With the in-depth development of digitization, networking and intelligence, China is rapidly transforming to intelligent manufacturing. The lack of core industrial software in China's manufacturing industry will be a sword of Damocles hanging over the top of China cnc milling and turning manufacturing industry.

At the moment, the industry is eerily silent. The development of independent high-end CAD and CAE software has become impossible in people's minds.

According to the official data of DARPA, the advanced research agency of the US Department of Defense, in the 2018 fiscal year, 216 million US dollars will flow into the Electronic Resurgence Program. In China, many design companies are still drawing with pirated CAD.
