Recently, Peng Fan, Chairman of the National Intelligent Casting Industry Innovation Center/Shared Equipment Co., Ltd., and Liu Yi, General Manager of the 3D Printing Business Unit of Shared Equipment Co., Ltd., and other four people visited Wuyi County, Jinhua City, Zhejiang Province, and went to China Wear-resistant backbone enterprises such as Zhejiang Yurong Industrial Co., Ltd., the rotating chairman unit of the Wear-Resistant Materials and Castings Branch of the Foundry Association, provide enterprise diagnosis and green and intelligent transformation guidance for the local austenitic manganese steel wear-resistant casting industry.
Mr. Peng and his party, accompanied by Song Liang, Secretary-General of the Wear-Resistant Materials and Castings Branch of the China Foundry Association, inspected three key wear-resistant enterprises in Wuyi County. Li Lailong, chairman of Zhejiang Yurong Industrial Co., Ltd., Zhu Jianfeng, chairman of Wujing Machinery Manufacturing Co., Ltd. and Wang Yongwu, general manager, and Fang Debiao, deputy general manager of Zhejiang Huasheng Metal Products Co., Ltd., attended the reception and talks.
During the meeting, Mr. Peng fully affirmed the status and influence of the local austenitic manganese steel wear-resistant parts industry in the country, and proposed a 3D printing combined mold and digital management plan to assist industrial transformation. Mr. Peng pointed out that the manufacturing and storage of austenitic manganese steel wear-resistant molds is a major pain point in the local industry. If the production process of 3D printing combined molds is adopted, it can not only solve the problem of long mold production cycles and mold inventory, but also achieve It is currently produced and recycled, and it is easy to store and does not deform. As product models tend to be standardized, some special tooling can be designed to make the production, use, and cost of molds more in line with actual conditions. In addition, Mr. Peng shared and discussed the transformation and upgrading plans of enterprise digital management with local entrepreneurs. Chairman Peng pointed out that foundry enterprise management is a common problem currently faced by the industry: foundry enterprises have greater difficulty in management due to factors such as employee quality, on-site labor environment and process control. Software and cloud management can be used to make the foundry enterprise more manageable. Enterprise management will be parameterized and standardized from process design, on-site production, quality control, personnel performance and other processes, and the management difficulty and cost will be greatly reduced.
At the end of the talks, Mr. Peng invited local entrepreneurs to share on-site inspections and have in-depth exchanges. Secretary-General Song Liang also said that he would organize a visiting group to visit and share the experience later. Secretary-General Song represents the local wear-resistant casting industry and has formed several cooperation intentions with Sharing to jointly promote the transformation and upgrading of the local industry and promote the green, intelligent and digital development of the wear-resistant casting industry.
