Foton Motor Guangdong to set up a new factory

<


On June 26th, Foton Motor Co., Ltd., the first brand of China Commercial Vehicles, once again marked out a generous plan and laid the groundwork for its Sanshui plant in Guangdong Province. It echoed with the Foshan factory's Ouhui Bus Factory in Guangdong, and the Fudan Automotive South China started slowly.

A center, two factories, and brothers' bases. At this point, the world-famous "Guangdong factory" will take a more solid step in the magnificent transition from "manufacturing" to "creating," and Foton Motors will be able to deploy two major territories in Guangdong. The factory will be an important role that cannot be ignored.

Heavy layout in southern hinterland of quality improvement drive business breakthroughs <br> <br> southern China lives up to its "Facing the Sea" geographical advantage, the market economy has enjoyed for centuries, "spring" in the world; and Guangdong, as China's economy The most vigorous and open areas have always been the powerful pedal for world-class companies to deploy in China. Although the financial crisis that swept the world since 2008 has caused some foreign companies to exit from the predicament, it has also brought their own brands an opportunity to seize the market.

In 2011, Foton Motor formally established the “North and South Layout” for its strategic unit, the Ouhui Bus, and used Beijing as its operation center to build a more modern and technological Guangdong plant outside the Beijing factory with rich manufacturing experience. Global considerations, detailed pen down, Futian cars never played random chess. Coinciding with the pace of negotiation between Futian and Daimler, the Ouhui Bus Guangdong Plant is a top-class passenger car R&D and manufacturing base built in accordance with the Daimler Manufacturing Standards. It has the most advanced and complete technical equipment in the domestic passenger car industry and can achieve Annual production capacity of 20,000 vehicles.

However, the increase in production capacity has never been the core purpose of Futian Ouhui's layout in Guangdong. On the one hand, the global financial crisis has forced the “Made in China” of factories in the world to push the bottleneck of improving quality and building brands. On the other hand, due to the development of high-speed rail, the impact of rising oil prices and the increasingly strict reality of environmental protection standards, the passenger car manufacturing industry is also facing With the increasingly fierce "Red Sea" competition. The self-owned brands of large passenger cars are no longer simple assembly processes. In the case of slowing market expansion, how can Futian Ohui stand on “quality”?

This stems from their unique "Damle Manufacturing Standard."

At Futian Ouhui Guangdong Plant, benefiting from the joint venture of “Fukuda Daimler”, the factory has fully integrated with the European standard quality inspection system and established 36 quality inspections for four systems from R&D, supply to production and sales. In order to ensure the excellent quality of the product. Among the 36 levels, only the production process will monopolize the standard of 27 weights, which indicates that Futian Ouhui’s profound insight into “quality”.

For example, the Guangdong factory has applied an automated production monitoring system (MES system) in a full range, which enables timely monitoring of production and quality information; and, in the production workshop, production line, and squad, the process has been completed, ensuring that quality defects are not transmitted. And the production schedule; the standardization of quality doors enables the factory to focus on whether the key and safety control points of the bus are embodied in the actual car; after the completion of the manufacturing, the first-class automated vehicle inspection line is launched to ensure that the entire vehicle performance is always stable; , Guangdong factory implements a strict audit of the entire vehicle Audit, in order to stand in the perspective of the user, and constantly improve the physical quality of the vehicle.

"Gold Value Chain" flares core power industry achievements bus boutique <br> <br> not only in the manufacturing sector, relying on strong support Beijing headquarters, Fukuda Europe hui Guangdong factory analysis of the value of the bus, stand higher and also see farther.

Through the upstream and downstream, a "golden procurement chain" is created. Starting from the source parts of the bus, the customer's actual operation value will be improved with the best choice.

This is a veritable "golden chain," which is the highest quality core resource in the industry. With the group advantage of "China's first commercial vehicle brand", Foton Motors has developed a joint venture with Cummins to develop Foton Cummins Powertrain. This year, the Foton Cummins ISG Powertrain, which was officially released in volume in batches, will soon be applied to Futian Ouhui's rice segment. On the high-end bus; In addition, Ouhui also established international strategic alliances with Iveco Power, ZF, Michelin, WABCO, etc., and built a global parts procurement system with this as its core; Guangdong factory benefits from this global gold procurement chain. Very shallow.

However, whether it is large or small parts, or the last full meter of the vehicle product, the physical value delivered to the customer can not be separated from a subtle but ubiquitous details of protection, that is, "logistics."

This reporter learned that from the beginning of the factory parts logistics management planning, the Guangdong factory of Foton Bus has invited Germany's Fabrug Logistics Consulting to provide complete solutions for logistics information systems. The Toyota production method of SPS into sets of accompanying supply system. The logistics model behind this system's speed requirements is very powerful and it is also the ultimate model to maximize the efficiency of operators. This is also a model widely used in current advanced car manufacturing plants, and Futian Ouhui Bus is the only passenger car manufacturer in China and even in the world that adopts this production management model.

"Green engine" look to the future upgrade strategy to drive in the South China region <br> <br> this beautiful landscape of the area, a large car manufacturers, the "green bus" as its strategic direction, not only on behalf of its current commitment Social responsibility reflects its strategic vision of the future.

Futian Ouhui Guangdong factory, synonymous with new energy bus base.

In recent years, Foton Motor has actively responded to the national new energy policy and catered to future industry development trends. Both Futian Automotive's R&D and manufacturing are far ahead of the major bus companies in the industry. In this area, Futian Ouhui Bus has mastered the key core technologies.

A horse.

It is relying on strong technology reserves and strategic vision, Foton passengers take the lead in expanding the field of new energy buses. As the earliest enterprise entering the field of new energy buses in China, Futian Auhui was at least five years ahead of its competitors.

The country's related new energy promotion policy was formally introduced only one year later.

Since 2014, benefited from the new round of new energy promotion policies of the country, with abundant product resources and mature operating experience, Futian Ouhui won one batch after another bulk orders, Beijing, Tianjin, Hebei, Shandong, Zhejiang, Guiyang , Heilongjiang ...... everywhere Futian Ouhui new energy bus figure, whether plug-in hybrid bus, or online charging, fast charge, quick-change pure electric bus, Futian Ou Hui with excellent quality and personality The solution has gained the trust of customers. They have chained with authoritative experts such as Tsinghua University, Beijing Institute of Technology, and China Road Transportation Association, and they have also achieved good practice with the “Zhilan” new energy solutions jointly promoted by outstanding suppliers such as electric motors, batteries, and electronic control.

After the Sanshui plant is put into production, the pickup brand will work together with the Auhui brand in southern China to comprehensively enhance the high-end brand effect of Foton Motor's “China Commercial Vehicle First Brand”.
