Wu Liang did not refuse the invitation of Director Qu, but offered a condition, "Tell me about the process content of the spark plug production line?"

This line is one of the best production lines in Xianghuoju, and the other is the Boda automatic assembly line of the U.S. Boda Company. It was introduced in the same year. Director Qu is quite proud of being a workshop director on this line. of.

Coupled with Wu Liang’s previous posture that he is not unfamiliar with the equipment, Director Qu still feels a little unusual, not to mention who this is sacred, just looking at the appearance of the other side’s skin and tender meat, he I know, maybe this is a high-achieving student from where the factory recruited. Otherwise, the Minister of Human Resources personally took them to visit.

This is the advantage of being a big banner with tiger skins. Wu Liang expressed a strong curiosity about the production line, and Director Qu had a good impression on him. Naturally, he said what he said, leaving aside the technical aspects. Not afraid of being known by outsiders.

This is where the charm of industry lies. With the same production line, some companies produce good quality products, while some companies produce waste products. The reason lies in the process settings.

For example, when Director Qu introduced the constant-temperature tunnel kiln, he only introduced, "The ceramic blanks from the prilling tower are calcined and shaped with natural gas here, and they basically become semi-finished ceramics!"

The high temperature that spark plugs can withstand inside the cylinder can reach up to 800 degrees, and only ceramics are capable of both high temperature and insulation at the same time. However, the temperature of ceramic calcination is 1580 degrees, which belongs to the scope of the process, don’t look at it. A small temperature index is closely related to the particle size and density of ceramic particles after being polished by a ball mill.

This belongs to the core of the core. Whether it is a professional or not, this temperature can be reflected.

Wu Liang smiled and asked, "1600 degrees?"

Even if the temperature is deviated, but the big difference is not bad, Director Qu immediately became vigilant. He didn't affirm or deny it. Instead, he smiled at Wu Liang's words, "Do you also know this?"

Wu Liang smiled and explained briefly, "I saw something similar to this in a molybdenum mine factory before. It seems that it can burn to 1900 degrees?"

Director Qu secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Perhaps this was just an unintentional guess from the other party. He also smiled, "Yes, it seems that this kind of equipment is also used for burning lime, but compared with theirs, this one is more accurate and more compact. It's incomparable to them!"

This is also true. The rotary kiln is a large-scale equipment. Although the principle is similar, what is placed inside the workshop is still called a calcining kiln. How big can a small spark plug be?

Wu Liang took a rough look at the entire production line. In addition to ceramic production, there is also iron shell production, and finally the final assembly, that is, the iron shell and ceramics are assembled together.

After that, there were hot press assembly, internal voltage testing, etc., and even simulated air pressure monitoring. Wu Liang saw a rare look, but he also expressed extremely high appreciation for the degree of automation of this production line. "This line is quite advanced. Why did the company lose money?"

Wu Liang had some understanding of this public case, but he was able to listen to the views of the parties personally. This is the real seeing is believing.

However, the expression on Director Qu's face is really wonderful, "Loss, it was before, this year, how can I increase the output of last year by 20%, 60 million?"

Wu Liang was also quite surprised when he heard this number, "Huh? Not bad!"

Seeing Wu Liang’s astonishment, Director Qu was a little proud, but soon, his eyes dimmed again, “Don’t talk about it, wait for a drink together in the evening, and listen to your accent not like a local, let you taste Authentic Hunan cuisine!"

Wu Liang smiled, rubbing his hands and said, "That's a good feeling. I just brought a few bottles of wine from my hometown to give you a taste. Oh, by the way, how much do you call, I'll call you one!"

After the two people exchanged phone calls, at Wu Liang's strong request, Director Qu took him to the extensive production line to take a look at it. They were similar, with similar production capacity, and the equipment also kept going.

This visit was another half an hour later. Wu Liang also met the director of the workshop, Long Zhouqiu, who was black and thin, wearing a short sleeved overalls, and the hair on his arms seemed to have not evolved completely, and some chimpanzees. One fight, blocking the face is probably the genuine "Planet of the Apes".

Director Qu invited guests, Longzhou Qiu Cengfan, a few people made an appointment, at 8 o'clock in the evening, let Zhang Jianjian wait for the call-Wu Liang left Zhang Jianjian's name.

Why is it 8 o’clock? The explanation given by Director Qu is that there has been a delay of two hours in the afternoon, and it’s a little bit cooler in the evening. I postponed the day shift by two hours and the night shift by two hours to find a way to complete today’s production tasks. .

This is a surprise again.

In enterprise management, especially in manufacturing enterprises, several of the most basic management, quality, cost, and delivery time are indispensable. The most common saying is that "products without quality are invalid products." , This point can be reached in many companies, and even some companies will play the slogan of "Quality Zero Defect Standard Internationalization" as the corporate management concept.

As for whether it can achieve zero defects?

Anyway, the person in charge of the company will think, "Believe it or not, anyway, I believe it!"

Needless to say, the cost is high quality and low price. Only when the cost is low, the competitiveness is strong.

Leaving aside these two points, in terms of delivery time, many companies actually manage relatively loosely. For example, the production plan changes three times a day. What lies behind this is not just workshop management issues, but also the entire sales and manufacturing. Deviations have appeared in a series of links such as the supply chain.

The first thing to bear the brunt is the management of sales orders. The worst thing for many foreign companies is to lock their production plans for three days unchanged, but what about China?

Few can lock the plan unchanged.

Often when there is an urgent order, the sales will scream, crying that the supply must be guaranteed, otherwise the order will be lost.

Losing orders is intolerable for a sales-oriented manufacturing company. It is not only the sales staff’s commission is affected, but also the business owner’s preference for sales. The reason is also simple. There will be a profit if the payment is returned. If the boss is not clear about the account, then such a boss should go to bed!

Of course, in the case of a small company, the accounts will be easier to calculate. The boss only needs to figure out how much money is spent and how much money is sold, and then distribute the profits clearly, or use more lofty terms, such as break-even point This concept calculates how much money the company has to spend on a day's shift to turn it around, and how much the annual output can reach before it loses money, etc.

In other words, as a boss, as long as the accounts are clear, such a boss can at least guarantee the normal and orderly operation of the enterprise. As for the competitiveness, there are more factors to restrict it.

Similarly, Wu Liang also calculated an account. For a company like Xianghuoju, an annual output of 50 million pieces will definitely reach the break-even point. If not, it must be due to the bloated organization and weak profitability. And other factors.

According to the analysis report that Yan Yisheng gave to Wu Liang, if the staff structure is reasonable, 50 million yuan can make money properly. If it can reach 60 million yuan this year, the profit will be considerable.

However, listening to the words of Director Qu, Wu Liang still feels a little unusual, and the only good news lies in the management of the delivery date, at least in the entire production system. From the current point of view, at least the management of the production plan is not bad. Yes, the workshop director also knew that the production task was not completed that day, so he took the initiative to adjust working hours without incurring too much overtime expenses.

Wu Liangqiang suppressed the doubts in his heart, and bid farewell to Director Qu Jianlei and Director Long Zhou Qiu from Zhang Jianjian, and patiently drove the air-conditioning in the car around the streets of Jianning City, waiting for Director Qu's call.
