Valves are essential fluid control equipment in industries such as petroleum, chemical, power plants, and metallurgy. With the deepening of economic globalization, customers have increasingly high quality requirements for enterprises, and quality issues such as valve leakage, internal leakage, and poor appearance quality are becoming more prominent. How to quickly and effectively improve the quality management level of enterprises has become a practical problem facing entrepreneurs
There are still many defects in quality management in China's valve industry. Firstly, the manufacturing process has been more or less overlooked. Many enterprises have quality assurance systems, but they are useless in practical work. The implementation of quality management is not thorough, and the assembly process is sloppy. Unqualified assembly. Let's piece it together. During the coating process, it can also be omitted. If there are no standards for paint, standards will be established. If the previous process of the accessory itself is not handled properly, the defect will be covered by paint. Moreover, there is no strict control over valve debugging, resulting in some valves running, leaking, dripping, or leaking just after installation.
In terms of processing sites, many valve processing plants in China have chaotic or uneven ground conditions, with large items stacked on the ground and the sites being crushed; Or with poor environmental awareness, the treated iron filings cannot be effectively treated and prevented. Dust, workpiece dust scattered in factories without rust preventive oil, with rust stains. How can this processing process ensure appearance quality?
In contrast, foreign valve companies have complete and advanced quality control methods, complete cold and hot experiments, and use advanced coordinate measuring instruments. All types of flaw detection equipment have undergone strict inspection, and every quality assurance link is in place. Each link in any process is clear at a glance, with detailed records and clear responsibilities; Good surface quality, including forging quality, surface polishing, and weld quality, almost eliminating bumps and scratches; The cleanliness is also high, including civilized production in the workshop, environmental hygiene, and prevention. The dust prevention, rust prevention, burrs, flashing, polishing, cleaning, and pre assembly cleaning and drying of product parts can all be achieved without leaving any marks. The employees are also very dedicated and meticulous.
At the same time, we must be soberly aware that China's economy is gradually aligning with the world economy, and strong foreign enterprises are flocking to the Chinese valve market. These overseas legions have strong funds, high-tech capabilities, and rich business strategies that Chinese valves cannot see. The market poses a certain threat and is also our main competitor in the valve industry. At present, they are acquiring domestic valve enterprises, recruiting high paying technical design talents in the valve industry, and using well-known brands to seize the high-end valve market in China. Some have invested in building factories in China, some have relocated their headquarters to China, and some have established research and development centers in China.
The domestic valve manufacturing industry has successively adopted foreign advanced technical standards, and the promotion and improvement of new materials, technologies, and processes, as well as the integration with foreign advanced technical standards, indicate the implementation of national and industry standards. The standards are somewhat outdated. The lag in standard formulation and revision also restricts the development of the industry. Due to a lack of understanding among some users and owners about the performance of domestic valve manufacturers and existing valve products, domestic enterprises have no performance and are unwilling to purchase domestically produced products that reach international standards. This also affects the rapid development of domestic enterprises and narrows their development space. The gap with foreign countries. One of the reasons.
The gap and problems are not scary, as long as we adjust our development thinking, enhance confidence, strengthen enterprise quality management, focus on technological innovation and core technology research and development, and improve the core competitiveness of the enterprise. In the near future, China's valve industry will be able to catch up with and surpass similar foreign enterprises, occupy a certain share in the world valve market, and become a strong valve manufacturing country.
