A century old car company recognizes Liaocheng's lightweight technology, and German businessmen come thousands of miles to chat about 'factory inspection'
At 9:00 am on May 20th, Shandong Hongyuan Metal Co., Ltd. in Jiaming Economic Development Zone, Dongchangfu District, Liaocheng welcomed a special guest: the technical team of German century old automotive giant Mahler Group. They not only need to perform "CT scans" on the production line during this trip, but also give the enterprise a "global unified examination" using the strict 1694 standard.
The German businessmen came for inspection mainly for two purposes: firstly, to evaluate the positioning of the equipment and production capacity equipped by our company since its establishment; secondly, to conduct a comprehensive audit of the 1694 standard and 5S management. Once the review and inspection are approved, we will begin mass production to provide global support for the Mahler Group. ”Wang Chaoshui, General Manager of Shandong Hongyuan Metal Co., Ltd., said.
On the intelligent production line, the precision of microchannel aluminum flat tubes manufactured by horizontal extruders and cutting machines is tens of times higher than that of traditional production methods. German inspectors carefully review product information, go deep into the production line, comprehensively understand the production status of the enterprise, and ensure that the products meet international market demand.
We have been cooperating with Hongyuan Company for many years, and every time we visit, we can see their efforts in technological innovation, constantly introducing advanced production and high-end cutting equipment. By cooperating with Hongyuan Company, we feel reassured and hope that the scale of cooperation between the two sides will continue to expand, "said Matthias, Technical Director of Germany's Mahler Group.
Hongyuan Metal's automotive microchannel aluminum flat tubes are sold well in more than 20 countries and regions worldwide, with a total output value of nearly 1 billion yuan. Even this year, which has been impacted by the international market, the production workshops of enterprises are still busy, and the number of orders is growing against the trend. German businessmen travel thousands of miles to "inspect factories" precisely because they are attracted by the "new track" opened up by enterprises.
Hongyuan Metal firmly seizes the opportunity of national encouragement for automobile lightweighting, actively engages in new product research and development, and adopts aluminum instead of copper and carbon dioxide instead of fluorine and chlorine technology. Compared to traditional copper tube products, aluminum flat tube structures are more compact, with significant energy-saving and consumption reducing effects. Each ton of flat tube can achieve a carbon reduction of 7.8 tons. With 11 invention patents and 1 global PCT patent, the company has attracted internationally renowned companies such as Tesla and Samsung to seek cooperation. The company has also signed a global long-term strategic cooperation agreement with the German company Mahler.
Since the beginning of this year, the company has received more than 20 domestic and foreign distributors who came to inspect with intention orders like this. The company is full of confidence in exploring international markets and is also full of expectations for industry development and market prospects.
