Service-oriented　manufacturing　is　an　advanced　manufacturing　mode　focused　on　integrating　service　with　manufacturing.　The　remarkable　importance　is　known　to　be　strongly　associated　with　the　development　of　service-oriented　economy　in　the　period　in　which　China　transfers　the　traditional　equipment　manufacturing　industry　to　the　service-oriented　manufacturing.　We　take　a　close　insight　into　basic　theories　of　service-oriented　manufacturing,　and　then　we　analyze　the　characteristics,　profiles,　as　well　as　the　present　situation　of　the　equipment　manufacturing.　Finally,　we　propose　some　countermeasures　for　transferring　the　equipment　manufacturing　to　the　service-oriented　manufacturing　from　the　views　of　the　aggregation　mechanism,　the　network　of　innovative　mechanism　and　manufacturing　value-added　chain.
