Abstract

The purpose of this article is to analyze modern indicators of the mechanical engineering industry and suggest ways to improve economic indicators. The research methodology is the analysis of scientific works of domestic and foreign scientists, as well as the use of indicators from the official website of the State Statistics Service. The results of the study are considered the main trends in the development of machine-building enterprises in Ukraine. Territorially, machine-building enterprises are located in all regions of Ukraine. However, against the general background, the 8 largest cities engaged in mechanical engineering stand out: Dnipropetrovsk, Kharkiv, Zaporizhia, Kyiv, Lviv, Odessa, Luhansk and Donetsk. Products manufactured by machinebuilding enterprises, depending on the market it is focused on, can be divided into the following groups: heavy engineering, tractor and agricultural engineering, railway engineering, automotive industry, electrical engineering, instrumentation, machine tool. The development of mechanical engineering in 2017-2020 is analyzed. Today, Ukrainian machine-building enterprises face very acute problems that need to be solved as soon as possible. Machine-building enterprises have a very clear limitation of the latest technologies and financial stability, so the domestic market has very limited opportunities. The general decrease in the number of sold products of the machine-building industry in the structure of industrial products, difficult financial results of the industrial sector of the economy and in particular in machine-building, very low level of profitability of operating activities create an environment of enterprise development risks The volumes of sold products are highlighted. A study of the main problems of mechanical engineering in Ukraine. It is noted that the industrial potential of the state, its competitiveness in foreign markets, the level of social development, scientific and technological progress, including human productivity, reduction of material consumption, quality of the final product, energy conservation depend on the development of mechanical engineering. Industry provides comprehensive mechanization and automation of production for various sectors of the economy. Recommendations for improving production capacity for domestic enterprises are of practical importance.
