The disposable medical devices industry involves medicine, machinery, electronics, plastics and other industries, is a multidisciplinary cross-cutting, knowledge-intensive, capital-intensive high-tech industry. The basic characteristics of high-tech medical equipment are digitalization and computerization, is the crystallization of multi-disciplinary, cross-disciplinary modern high-tech, its product technology content is high, high profit, so it is the major scientific and technological countries, international large-scale companies competing with each other's commanding heights, the threshold of intervention is high.

Even in the industry as a whole low gross margin, investment is not high sub-industry will continue to have high-tech products, and from which to breed some enterprises with strong profitability. Therefore, the overall trend of the industry is high investment, high returns.
