Piston industry needs to solve three problems

The piston is an important part of the car engine, the engine is called the heart of the car, the development of the piston industry directly affects the further development of the automotive industry. In 2008, the piston production industry is in a very favorable development opportunity.

      China's reform and opening up 30 years. The rapid development of automobile industry has driven the auto parts industry of our country to develop at an unprecedented speed. As the auto parts industry's market demand soared, so the demand for the piston also increased simultaneously, the piston industry ushered in a favorable development of the motor. At present, foreign piston manufacturers have to open up markets in China, the domestic professional piston plant has gradually built, expanded and updated, the domestic piston industry is ready to let go of a big fight. With the addition of wto, the reduction in the threshold of international trade and the adjustment of product structure in developed countries, China is gradually becoming the world's largest processing factory. The processing of piston products is facing more room for development. To seize this strategic opportunity to speed up the development of the domestic piston industry, the urgent need to crack three major problems.

First, the size of the production capacity is blocked

      At present, there are more than 120 piston manufacturers all over the country, of which 100,000 are in production and sales each year, but less than 30 are on sales of 500 million yuan. Most of the piston enterprises because of the limited production scale and economies of scale can not be achieved economies of scale, rely on backward equipment spell manpower fight time. Due to its small size and capacity constraints, in the face of the rapid development of the industry, it can only be hand-held "cake" to others. As soon as possible to change this situation, in addition to their own growth factors, the most effective way is through joint ventures, mergers and reorganization of enterprises to achieve the expansion of capital in order to further expand market share in the competition unbeaten. This is a more popular practice in today's international economy and is also a directionality issue for the development of the piston industry in the coming period. Our country actively promotes the joint reorganization among enterprises, and as soon as possible to create a number of scale enterprise groups. Emancipate our minds on this issue and break the boundaries of the region by breaking the boundaries of ownership and breaking the traditional line of professional division of labor in accordance with the requirements of the 17th CPC National Congress that "there should be a new breakthrough in the reform and new ideas for development." As long as the joint between the enterprises may be able to do it boldly to try, with 3-5 years and strive to create a number of output value of more than 100 million yuan of enterprise groups.

Second, technology is not new products are limited

       The piston industry is a very small and very important part of the automotive components industry. 2008 coincides with the 30th anniversary of China's reform and opening up, in order to meet the fierce market competition at home and abroad needs, the entire auto industry should step up technological innovation, reduce costs, improve product quality, improve market visibility. In 2007, under the guidance of industrial policy of energy conservation, environmental protection and safety, the piston industry in our country has made some progress in the development of new products and the adjustment of product structure, etc. At present, there are many kinds of specifications to make the user's selectivity Strengthen and form a group of well-known brands at home and abroad. Although these products have strongly supported the domestic economic construction, we should be soberly aware that most of our products are generally of technical content or labor-intensive products due to a lack of technology. They do not have many varieties and rarely have the international advanced level. To revitalize the piston industry to develop it must make efforts in technological innovation, to be brave in the research and development of high technology, high labor added value of the world's leading piston products. For example, China has created the first liquid squeeze casting piston, the first wear-resistant alloy set ring piston, the first surface coating graphite piston, the first shaped hole pin piston, the first only cooling oil passage piston, the first A combination of piston, the first pendulum piston, the first electron beam welding piston eight "first" of Hunan Jiangbin Piston Company, the implementation of technological innovation, for its development has brought good prospects. The jb-2 new material with independent intellectual property rights developed by the company was awarded the 2004 special prize for technological innovation and passed the appraisal of scientific and technological achievements at the ministerial level. Piston samples made with this material were road test, running in good condition, and passed several tests of installed capacity, has been approved by OEM users. The company uses capp, cad and other process design; using glide, patran, nastran, marc, fatigue, ug and other advanced software piston processing, design, analysis and development; have a national first-class technology center; through independent design and joint development, For customers continue to provide to meet the European ⅱ, Europe ⅲ and Europe ⅳ and other international emission standards for high-performance internal combustion engine piston. The company's high-grade green, environmentally friendly diesel engine piston design won the "National Science and Technology Progress Award" and repeatedly won the annual "Science and Technology Innovation Award" and so on, the Pistons have formed more than 90 series of more than 300 varieties. The company leads the way in modern production with technology and concentrates all resources on providing high quality engine parts products and services to customers such as automotive, marine, construction machinery and defense industries. By the end of 2009, it will become the first-class high-end piston manufacturing and service enterprise and the international auto parts supplier in the country, achieving the leading technology and the largest scale in the field of high-performance piston. Third, the standard incomplete industry involved

      Everything is fair, this is the standardization. Today, a new concept popular in the world, namely "third-rate companies selling coolies, second-rate business selling products, first-class business selling patents, super-standard business selling standards." For piston companies, this philosophy is equally used. Imagine a professional engine piston manufacturer, if there is no operating instructions for the production, there is no equipment operating procedures, there is no single process flow, there is no fixed working hours, there is no more detailed cost accounting, no personnel assessment system, there is no performance appraisal standards, there is no Product drawings on the production, there is no procurement procedures and contract standards, there is no raw and auxiliary materials testing standards, etc., such enterprises can keep up with the pace of modern lean production? Is it efficient for a company's employees to work without a standard job? Does the piston produced maintain the "heart" "strong beat" of the engine? How long can such enterprises go on? In the domestic industry to shout bigger and bigger, catch up with the world celebrities, take the lean road, we should be more aware of the piston industry, to enhance competitiveness, we must abandon the extensive operation, the refinement and standardization of management, Otherwise, only those who fall into high-cost, low-output repetitive and ineffective labor suffer. Toyota has become one of the most profitable companies in the world thanks to "standardization." In order for the domestic piston enterprises to enter the world auto parts market more steadily, and to gain a firm foothold and grow stronger, they must rely on standardization to streamline, sort out, reorganize and consolidate all aspects. Because, no matter what kind of advanced technology and equipment, no matter what the effective mode of production and management philosophy, no matter how good the ceo employed, and whether purchased the world famous erp software for information technology, if not for you People, machines, objects, environment, management methods and techniques are standardized. There is no simplification, unification and series of transformation and integration. All of them can not be organically integrated into the body of enterprises and exert their due power and effect .

      A sound international standard system, making the global production handy. We Pistons enterprises should actively understand some of the common standards in the world and abandon the principle of "big and complete". They should make good use of the global resources to serve their own businesses, optimize their products and reduce costs through strategic alliances through nationwide or global sourcing , To achieve large-scale, specialized production and management, access to maximize profits.
