According to the law of market economy, powerful foundry enterprises can achieve competitive economic scale through mergers, reorganizations and alliances. Small enterprises follow the path of “specialization, refinement and specialization”, and form specialized small foundries with capable personnel, flexible operation and strong adaptability. , improve the level of social production, and form its own competitive advantage. It is necessary to establish and improve the technological innovation system with enterprises as the main body as soon as possible, and accelerate the construction of technological innovation capabilities of enterprises. Large and medium-sized foundry enterprises must establish enterprise technology centers; actively promote joint development projects of production, learning and research; gradually increase technological innovation of enterprises Invest, focus on the development of computer-aided design, auxiliary manufacturing, auxiliary process management, computer integrated manufacturing system, computer simulation technology, agile manufacturing technology, rapid response manufacturing technology, precision manufacturing technology and other high-tech as well as new materials and new processes in foundry production. The application of high-tech transformation and upgrading of foundry enterprises, and promote the technological upgrading of enterprises.
In the face of fierce foreign market competition, enterprises are required to have high market development capabilities. Enterprises should improve their economic and trade awareness, be familiar with the rules of the WTO, and use the WTO anti-dumping law and relevant Chinese laws and regulations to enhance their ability to protect themselves. On the premise of ensuring quality, efforts should be made to reduce production costs and improve product competitiveness. Foundry enterprises must implement talent strategy and put people first. Formulate policies to attract and stabilize scientific and technological talents, and create conditions to attract scientific and technological talents to work in enterprises.
To have outstanding innovation ability, not only to be able to produce, but more importantly to have their own innovative technology and innovative casting products in these fields, with advanced production technology and stable and excellent quality. In addition, the support of powerful foundry equipment and raw and auxiliary material enterprises and foundry consulting institutions is also an element of a strong foundry country. In these respects, Chinese foundry companies obviously need to work harder.
There is still a big gap in the overall level of my country’s foundry industry. Although we are starting to become a powerful foundry country, we still have a long way to go, and we need to take every step to become a powerful foundry country. Regardless of research and development, equipment, materials, or casting products, the quality of employees, etc., all show that my country’s foundry industry has begun to take steps to become a powerful foundry country. The combination of “macro-specialization” is the behavior of the entire industry at the macro level. The industrial cluster will promote the structural optimization and industrial upgrading of the foundry industry, and the leading enterprises will promote the deep specialization and cooperation among enterprises in the cluster. Become bigger and stronger in the area of expertise you are good at. Start with the “head”. Starting from the “mind” changing concept, solving problems from the “source”, and optimizing the casting process from the “start”, the improvement of the quality and ability of employees at all levels is the “root” of competitiveness. Demand-oriented. The foundry industry is developing rapidly in the face of demand.
Due to the increase in international demand for castings and the improvement of the quality of my country’s foundry industry, which further promotes the expansion of the export casting market, more and more domestic companies choose to switch from clay sand dry casting process to no-bake resin sand casting process. Compared with the clay sand dry casting process, the no-bake resin sand casting process has many incomparable advantages: high dimensional accuracy, good surface quality of castings, low scrap rate, wide application range, and low technical level requirements for workers, which greatly reduces the labor cost. Labor intensity of workers and improved working environment. However, the disadvantage is that the casting cost is high. In order to reduce the casting cost, all casting production units are exploring ways to reduce the casting cost. In 2002, our company newly installed a no-bake resin sand production line with an annual output of 3,000 tons of iron castings. After more than four years of continuous exploration, we believe that to reduce the cost of resin sand casting, we can reduce the cost of resin sand casting from the aspects of equipment, raw materials, and production processes. consider.
To change the current situation, it is necessary to increase the reorganization and structural adjustment of foundry enterprises, develop specialized production, further expand the scale of advantageous enterprises, and improve the level of technology and equipment; And implement the research and development system combining production, education and research to promote independent innovation; environmental protection and labor security must be taken as a major event; energy consumption and raw material consumption must be vigorously reduced; casting professionals must be further cultivated and employees must be strengthened The technical training of the team will improve the technical and labor quality of the workers in the whole industry.
