Automobile manufacturing starts with steel plate, and steel plate also has a lot of attention.
Galvanized steel plate is plated with a layer of zinc on both sides of the steel plate, which can prevent rust. After being used in the car, the car can avoid the early rust of the car body.
Of course, using ordinary steel plate also has anti rust technology, but it is much inferior to galvanized steel plate. Ordinary steel plate, with paint on the outside, is not easy to rust under normal circumstances. However, if the customer is in high corrosion areas such as the seaside, the paint of the car can not resist the erosion of water vapor. In this way, it is easy to burst the skin from the inside.
In the hands of the customer, it began to rust after three or four years of use, and the galvanized sheet can ensure that it will not rust for at least ten years. After ten years, should the customer change the car? Of course, this refers to places with large water vapor. If they are in the dry climate in the north, they will not rust for 20 years as long as they don't bump.
However, only cars with relatively high prices, at least those with more than 100000 yuan, will use galvanized steel plates. It is hard to believe that Han people lavishly use galvanized steel plates in 50000 yuan vans. Don't they care about the cost?
"Compared with the input of galvanized sheet, the improvement of quality is worth it," said director Zhang "In fact, in our country, some automobile factories use ordinary steel plates to make vans. Although the appearance is very beautiful and the price is cheaper than ours, users find that their cars have rusty body after several years of use, which will naturally be more inclined to our cars. We want to do long-term work. The most important word of mouth is galvanized sheet This aspect cannot be saved. "
Their vans are more expensive, but the quality is good. In this way, after several years of market, they have naturally accumulated a good reputation.
Do you ignore the cost for the sake of quality? How do you control the cost? Zheng Zhouyun is very strange at this time. Can they control it to less than 50000 yuan? Even with their low domestic labor cost? You know, an automobile factory needs a large number of workers, and the cost of these workers is quite high and expensive There are various welfare measures, none of which can be less.
What do they make money on?
The answer was soon revealed. Zheng Zhouyun continued to look forward and couldn't hide his surprised expression: "those are mechanical arms?"
There are not many workers on the production line, because many jobs are replaced by mechanical arms.
For example, after the steel plate has just been uncoiled and cleaned, they start to cut into pieces, cut into corresponding shapes, and then put them on the stamping machine for stamping. These are manually completed in their modern automobile factory, but now, they see a mechanical arm with a washing plate with a magnet on it, suck the cut steel plate, rotate it, and put it on the machine Under the press, the press will bang, and a steel plate on the roof will be stamped, and then the mechanical arm will suck up the steel plate and transfer it to the lower production line.
In the production line below, the roof, door frame and other components are accurately spliced by the mechanical arm. Those smart mechanical arms turn left and right on it, and the electric spark splashes. They are special welding robots that automatically weld the whole body.
Even Hans, the first country in industry, may not be able to use this technology on a van production line, right?
Moreover, the cost control here also reveals the answer.
Reduce the use of people and make a lot of use of robots.
Take the stamping process just now. It was originally operated by people. Once it was operated by people, it must ensure safety. Once there is any mistake, the workers' hands may be squeezed out by the stamping machine. This industrial accident will make the factory pay a sum of money.
Or, the factory has to take out a lot of money to insure the workers. After using the mechanical arm, it is not needed. This money can be saved. Although it may be more expensive when it is just purchased, the cost will be controlled after long-term use.
But how could they have such a modern factory? It's incredible.
He thought it was just a small factory like a manual workshop. Now it seems that his modern automobile factory is the real manual workshop!
The BIW has been manufactured. There is a special electrophoresis workshop. There is a need for quite pure inside the factory. The workers work in dust-proof clothes, which is comparable to the electronic workshop. The standard here is an order of magnitude higher than theirs!
"Come here and see it again. It's really a lot for us." Zheng Zhouyun sighed. Looking at his peers' Park Zhihui and Li benxian, there is a lonely feeling in their eyes. They are sitting in the sky.
The modernization procedure of the Han people here is far beyond their imagination. It is only a body production. As for others, engines and so on, it is also advanced and modern.
"We also want to see your QQ car." it's noon after the visit here. However, Zheng Zhouyun's interest is not reduced. He doesn't even plan to eat lunch, so he wants to visit the car production line.
"The car production line is in another factory," said Zhang. "You'd better have dinner here first."
After the car was developed, he only tried to put it into the market, and the result was highly praised. Therefore, without hesitation, factory director Zhang applied for land from the government with a bank loan, so he established a second factory to produce this QQ car.
Sure enough, as he expected, the products of QQ car are in short supply, and the production line is in a state of three shifts. Relying on this project, they have also changed from the van manufacturer to a car manufacturer.
If the red flag car is tall and meets the living needs of high-end people, QQ is the same as the van. It takes the route of surrounding the city from the countryside. The rich people in the countryside, after they have money, set the alternative products of the van on QQ. This kind of car, with Haihe automobile factory, has achieved a leap again.
"OK, let's talk while eating." Zheng Zhouyun knows that he can't be too anxious. He can also talk about a lot of things during dinner.
"Does your QQ car have a special sports car version?" Zheng Zhouyun first asked after a large table of Han cuisine came up in the factory's guest house.
Just got off the bus yesterday and was overtaken by a small QQ, which made Zheng Zhouyun resent it all the time and keep it in mind. Now he finally asked.
Hearing this question, factory director Zhang smiled in his heart. Hum, you are really on the hook.
