Walking in the factory of Xiamen Zhengliming Metallurgical Machinery Co., LTD., the spacious and bright production workshop is equipped with advanced production equipment, and the standardized operation process will be integrated with modernization and standardization. As long as the staff sits in front of the computer in the office to place orders, the material, forming, cutting, discharging, etc., are automated.
Over the past 20 years, Xiamen Zhengliming Metallurgical Machinery Co., Ltd. has been working on the product standard of "metal sheet roller forming machine" for a long time, from enterprise standards, to local standards in Fujian Province, to industry standards, national standards, and the integration of standards and enterprise innovation.
In the 1990s, the rapid development of the domestic construction industry, the demand for steel structure enclosure system equipment increased, but there is no such raw materials and equipment in the country, the need to import cold forming machines from abroad. Cold forming machine is through the forming roll, the metal plate into a specific section of the machine, the product is widely used in steel structure industry, decoration materials industry and a variety of engineering pipe.
"At the end of the 1980s, we first saw the cold bending molding equipment introduced from abroad in Shanghai Baosteel, after countless failures, we took the lead in the development of" metal sheet roll forming machine (cold bending molding equipment) "in China. Huang Yizhong, general manager of Xiamen Zhengliming Metallurgical Machinery Co., LTD., told reporters.
1994 is liming company a batch of metal plate roller forming machine to export to Southeast Asia, at that time, the customs required the issue of product standards, a listen to the "standard" enterprise was confused, the equipment is not as long as the production can be sold? What other standards are needed? In order to solve the problem, Huang Yizhong turned to the former Xiamen Municipal Bureau of Quality and Technical Supervision for help. "There are no standards, there is no basis for product quality, and customers have doubts about the product." Huang Yizhong said.
With the help of the former Xiamen Quality Supervision Bureau, Huang Yizhong led the organization of technical personnel in 1997 to formulate the first edition of the "Metal roll forming machine" enterprise standard. "The standard is already 'late,' but 'late' is better than 'absent.'" Huang Yizhong said with emotion. Since then, the standard has undergone three major revisions, and the technical level has reached the leading level in China, and won the third prize of the China Standard Innovation Contribution Award in 2008. At that time, the domestic share of the company's metal roll cold-forming machinery exceeded 30%, and the global share reached 8%. "These achievements are closely related to the company's attention to the standard, because of the advanced standards, only have excellent product quality, the favor of large foreign enterprises, occupy the domestic and foreign markets." Huang Yizhong said.
"The leadership of the company is determined to transform corporate standards into local standards and occupy the standard 'voice' in the province and the industry." Huang Yizhong recalled. Therefore, under the guidance and help of the quality supervision department, Zhengliming declared the professional standardization Technical Committee and provincial local standards, and led the development of the "continuous roll cold rolling forming machine" Fujian provincial local standard in 2008, which is the first local standard in the field in China, and laid the leading position of Fujian enterprises in the industry.
The "General Technical Conditions for cold rolling (bending) forming machinery" industry standard led by Zhengliming Company was released and implemented in 2013. "The development of the industry finally has a standard to follow, a standard control, domestic cold forming enterprises have been standardized, and the vitality of innovation has been further enhanced." China's metallurgical machinery brand equipment is relatively small, but compared with the previous' made in China 'equal to' cheap low-end products' era, there has been a qualitative leap." Huang Yizhong said.
The company takes the way of going out and sinking, and goes to a number of domestic enterprises to investigate the status quo of industry technology development and the demand for standards. Huang Yizhong personally led the technical staff to sink to the production line and listened to the common problems and solutions encountered by front-line workers in multiple processes such as welding, installation, level debugging, roller gap adjustment, wheel positioning, test machine, and test plate.
After four years of grinding, the national standard of "General Technical Conditions for Roll Cold forming Machinery" was successfully released in 2017, ending the dilemma that China's roll cold forming machine R & D and manufacturing enterprises have no national standard reference.
"From not knowing what the standard is, to the development of enterprise standards and provincial and local standards, and then to the upgrading of leading the development of industry standards and national standards, the development of standards has driven the research and development work, and the company's R&D team of hundreds of people has focused on breaking through key core technologies to provide powerful scientific and technological support for industrial transformation and upgrading." Huang Yizhong said. In the past three years, the company has obtained 111 intellectual property rights, including 19 invention patents and 92 utility model patents.
Recently developed "sector plate forming machine", successful trial production only half a year, two prototypes were immediately ordered by users, but also signed a number of orders. Zhengliming broke through the traditional mechanical processing of a single process, one time to achieve complex section and ultra-long length needs, to meet the steel structure enterprises on the envelope material requirements, is one of the few suppliers in the industry can provide a total solution, product supply is in short supply, some customers from the order to the final receipt of products, the middle to wait for a period of time, sometimes even up to several months.
Over the past few years, through open standards and data resources, Zhengliming has driven the development of 43 affiliated factory enterprises in Xiamen, and joined hands with these enterprises to research and develop, cooperate and grow together.
