A user bought a loader a few years ago and had problems with high fuel consumption and insufficient power at work. Later, he sold the old engine to Weichai Reman at a price of nearly RMB 10,000, and bought a remanufactured engine at a price of 70% of the new engine.
Weichai remanufacturing company purchased the old machine at a price of 25% of the new machine. After re-analysis and measurement, the remanufacturing process such as physical non-destructive surface treatment was reprocessed, the test was reassembled, the market was put again, and resources were realized. Reuse.
This "remanufactured" machine has been given a new life because it is cheap and its performance is similar to the new machine and is highly favored by users. Many users come here to find out how they can purchase "remanufacturing "machine. Contrary to the current situation of market weakness caused by the financial crisis, the products of Weichai Remanufacturing Co., Ltd. appeared to be in short supply, and the market orders had already approached 500 units.
Remanufacturing is the production process that restores waste products to the same technical performance and product quality as the original product, that is, the use of finished industrial products such as electromechanical products (equipment) as raw materials, without substantially changing the product structure and material quality. Next, the use of high-tech cleaning processes, repair technology or the use of new materials, new technologies, professional, batch repair and transformation, making the product in the main technical performance and safety and quality can reach the same standard with the same type of original products Claim.
On April 21, 2008, Weichai Power (Weifang) Remanufacturing Co., Ltd. was incorporated and became one of the first batch of 14 pilot companies in the country. The company used the Weichai 615 diesel engine plant for trial production and became the fastest startup unit among the 14 companies. On January 4 of this year, the company officially began mass production and its output increased month by month: 40 in January, 60 in February, and 81 in March. In April, the company set a new record of over 100 sets per month.
"This year's plan targets 1,000 units, sales revenue is 29 million yuan, and profit is 1 million yuan." Li Feng, general manager of Weichai Remanufacturing Company, is optimistic about the prospects of the remanufacturing market. "We must use the opportunity of the country to promote circular economy and seize it." The time has come to develop rapidly. This is very favorable for winning the national policy."
At present, Weichai mainly remanufactures seven types of models and products: one is the normal remanufactured engine as the main business; the second is the "three-charter machine" on the market; and the third is the remodeling model of the main engine plant, mainly the host computer. The backlog of machines in the factory, Weichai, through remanufacturing, not only revitalized the assets of the host plant, but also provided services for the host plant; Fourth, some of the past inventory of Weichai Weichai products can be re-sale through remanufacturing; Fifth, the maintenance station The teaching machine, which can make some old parts to be reused; six is ​​the exhibition machine; seven is the remanufacturing business of parts and components, the market that will be expanded for the next step.
Remanufacturing brings a new low-cost manufacturing model to Weichai: if it is not to break the body, remanufacturing must be re-used; if it cannot be installed, it is used in the teaching machine, and in addition it is the exhibition machine. Filtering, full use, remanufacturing company's goal is to make Weichai no longer have scrap parts. For the user, enjoy the same value-added benefits of the new machine's performance and services at low prices; for the repair station, this is a new selling point and profit growth point; for the host plant, to eliminate the backlog of machinery Worries are conducive to the revitalization of assets. For the entire supply chain, this is a brand-new win-win strategy and a re-use of resources.
Weichai's remanufactured engine has three major features: the same as the new machine, the economy is the same as the new machine, and the warranty period is the same as the new machine. As a wholly-owned subsidiary of Weichai, the remanufactured company also has its own three major advantages: technical cooperation with the US SRC Corporation; top-notch imported equipment, high starting point, high standards; 2700 repair stations across the country.
It is understood that currently, the Weichai engine has 1.4 million units in the market, and it is growing at a rate of 300,000 units per year. In the face of broad market prospects, Weichai Remanufacturing Company planned the "151 Project," which was to complete 1,000 units in 2009, 5,000 units in 2010 and 10,000 units in 2011. In addition, remanufacturing companies are working hard to solve the problems of building channels and clearing channels to prepare for the sales of 5,000 units next year.
