Since the Aluminum Alloy fuel tank is one of the pillar of the company Foma products, is the company's strategy of "going out" the first implementation of the export product assembly.
But Foma Aluminum Alloy tank "go" has been very cautious, in addition to the cost problem, for a small number of customers to partition welding extreme oil leakage problem has been one of the difficult problems in such technology, technique and equipment. In addition, in order to better go out, how to improve equipment utilization, fully release the existing equipment and facilities capacity, is also the direction of the company has been trying.
According to the existing hardware level of the company, through the multi department to assess the existing fuel line equipment and process conditions, the single purchase of rolling equipment and process improvement needs more than 30 yuan, the cost is relatively high. In order to solve the above problems, avoid "behind closed doors" at the end of September, Xue Yongchang led the leadership of the company technology department, safety equipment department, production workshop and other relevant personnel to Shandong a similar enterprise to study. That night, after the return of the hotel will convene an analysis meeting, the relevant personnel said that as soon as possible to take out the process upgrade and equipment upgrade program.
After returning, the technology and process department immediately improve the product process route, modify the product data model, the safety equipment department according to the product numerical model and process requirements to carry out the design of special equipment structure, mold. In mid October, homemade program, the budget is 6 yuan. All equipments, moulds, fittings and raw materials are purchased, processed and assembled according to the price of the drawing. In the middle of November, the equipment maintenance class is assembled and debugged, and the mould maintenance class is engaged in the research and debugging of the self-made mould. The joint debugging, the effect of its use fully meet the requirements of the relevant provisions of the standard of the product quality and process, the basic solution to the tank due to the welding stress concentration, easy to produce welding related problems produced by using limit state. At present, two presses have already had the batch production condition, the total cost is more than 5 yuan.
Because the aluminum alloy fuel tank needs large working area when stamping, the required tonnage is very small, and there are many kinds of punching holes, so it is necessary to adjust the mould regularly. Ordinary punching machine because the worktable is not enough, unable to meet the production requirements. The company is currently the 1250T hydraulic press operation cost is very high, and the need to frequently adjust the tank stamping mould, time-consuming, and serious delay the normal production of other artifacts. To this end, the first half of this year by the Department of safety equipment maintenance spare time has designed and manufactured 3 units from the tank depth sensor, heater 530-710mm hole deep throat stamping equipment, basic solution tank products occupy a large equipment, a single tank processing cost and equipment allocation decreased by nearly 5 yuan.
The equipment development once again, Foma maintenance technology work ability, management ability, design of equipment maintenance personnel thinking ability has been greatly improved, but also saves much cost for the company.
It is worth mentioning that the deep throat press in the use of institutions and structural design on the declaration of 1 invention patents, 3 utility models patents, benefits and reputation, can be described as double harvest!
