China News Network Taiyuan, June 26th Title: Shanxi’s “post-85” overseas returnees build a dream ingeniously: Let “Chinese intelligent manufacturing” go to the world

China News Network reporter Yang Jieying

Global total sales of refrigerators and air conditioners are about 270 million units a year, of which 3 units are “made in China”. In every 3 units, there is one compressor components from Shanxi. This private joint-stock equipment manufacturing enterprise located in Linfen City, Shanxi Province, has its products sold to Europe and the United States, and has set up multiple branches overseas.

"The market share of smart home core components is the world's largest, the single factory of industrial equipment parts, and the number one in the country's first in the country's first in the country's first in the country's first in the country's first in the country's first in the country's first in the machining capabilities of smart home parts." After ten years of hard work, this is the "report card" of the "post-85" returnee Wang Yuan in the ten years.

Wang Yuan, from Linfen, Shanxi Province, graduated from Aston University in the United Kingdom. Since he served as the president of Shanxi Huaxiang Group in 2012, he has long focused on the fields of metal material forming and processing, and has gradually built Shanxi Huaxiang Group into a leading enterprise in the sub-sectors of China's equipment manufacturing industry. Huaxiang Group has also won the honor of "Single Champion Demonstration Enterprise" of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. He has successively won the title of "China Foundry Outstanding Entrepreneur", the "Creating Shanxi" Innovation and Entrepreneurship Special Award, and the Shanxi Province "May Fourth Youth" Medal and other honors.

In midsummer, the reporter followed the Linfen event field tour group of the "Three Jin People's Congress Representatives' Field Trip Tour" to interview Wang Yuan. Since being elected as a representative of the Shanxi Provincial People's Congress, Wang Yuan has conscientiously performed his duties and responsibilities, submitted suggestions and proposals on important issues such as expanding recruitment of talents, increasing talent cultivation, promoting industrial cluster construction, optimizing resource allocation, promoting the development of the private economy, and developing strategic emerging industries, actively making suggestions and jointly seeking development.

As the head of the enterprise, he led the majority of employees to actively participate in the development wave of intelligent manufacturing and new energy industries, and shoulder the mission of "serving the country through industry and developing science and technology".

"We always pay attention to the craftsman spirit and continuous innovation to polish product quality." Wang Yuan told reporters that compared with the general manufacturing industry, the production of casting parts has high requirements for the accumulation of production process experience, which requires casting enterprises to have strong independent innovation capabilities, and also require a large number of skilled technical managers and production technical workers, which are "craftsmen".

Wang Yuan requires "craftsmen" to have 15 conditions, including being independent, being moderately professional, and innovating according to different needs. The company also conducts the "Huaxiang Craftsmen" selection every year. At present, the company has more than 160 "big craftsmen" for more than 30 years. "Huaxiang craftsmen" for more than 10 years account for about 20% of the total number of employees, and are distributed in production, quality, technology, R&D and other positions.

From "manufacturing" to "intelligent manufacturing", Wang Yuan led the company to adhere to technology-driven development and build an intelligent manufacturing system that integrates the "three-integration" of the intelligent manufacturing system. "' three-transform ' means automation, informatization, and lean." Wang Yuan introduced that the main production lines of the company have been automated and transformed with information systems to solve the previous problems of information islands and information transmission, and at the same time, the manpower saved by automation is transformed into the main force of lean improvement.

"We have established a special intelligent equipment manufacturing company to independently develop and manufacture lean automation equipment, process inspection and transmission simple automation equipment to better match our product family." Wang Yuan said that this is a process of pursuing excellence, a process of painful research, and a process of cultivating talents.

At present, Shanxi Huaxiang Group has become the world's largest white household appliances compressor parts supplier, accounting for more than 23% of the global share. At the same time, it actively plays the core function of the main chain of the chain, continues to extend the industrial chain, and enhances added value, and is committed to building the Linfen white household appliance industry cluster.

Speaking of the future, Wang Yuan said that he will continue to innovate production technology and equipment manufacturing level, rely on 5G+ smart factories, build an intelligent manufacturing demonstration base, realize the high-end and intelligent industrial chain, and contribute to the development of China's equipment manufacturing industry.
