It is understood that the largest diesel engine casting production base in Asia that Yuchai has invested RMB 2 billion has made rapid progress. After the first production line is put into production in March 2010, the second production line will also be put into use in the near future. Yuchai is a nationally renowned enterprise that produces diesel engines. In 2009, the sales volume of diesel engines exceeded 670,000 units, ranking the first in the same industry in China for five consecutive years. Casting is the core component of Yuchai's engine, which is the bottleneck of the production capacity of the body and the cylinder head. Due to the insufficient production capacity of the casting, the production of the diesel engine is seriously affected. In the traditional sales season from the end of 2009 to the beginning of 2010, Yuchai lost about 20,000 orders due to insufficient engine capacity. In the “Twelfth Five-Year Planâ€, Yuchai has to maintain an increase in the output value of 10 billion yuan each year and the task is arduous. To this end, Yuchai Group decided to invest heavily in the construction of a diesel engine casting center to resolve the conflict between supply and demand of castings and improve product quality. The foundry center is located in Yuchai Industrial Park, with a total planning area of ​​1,800 acres, a total investment of about 2 billion yuan, a construction period of 8 years, and planning and construction of 6 complete casting lines. After the center is completed and put into operation, it will annually produce about 300,000 tons of light, medium and heavy-duty diesel engine castings, 250,000 sets of aluminum alloy diesel engine castings, 30,000 sets of large-scale diesel engine castings, and an annual output value of more than 3.7 billion yuan, becoming the largest scale in Asia. Diesel engine casting production base. According to Yu Ping, chairman of Guangxi Yuchai Group Co., Ltd., on February 10, 2009, the first production line of the foundry center was formally started, and it was put into operation on March 12, 2010. The production line has a construction area of ​​36,000 square meters. It was originally planned to take nearly 600 days, but actually more than 200 days ahead of schedule, creating the "Yuchai speed." The line has a high starting point, fast speed, high efficiency, and first class technology level. The robot core technology is the first in the world. Since the production line was put into production, production efficiency has been steadily increasing. In the month of June, 10046 cylinder block castings were produced, 15,896 in July and 16,428 in August. The hourly production capacity has increased from more than 30 units at the beginning of production to nearly 60 at present. . As of August 31, it has cumulatively produced more than 56500 cylinder castings. At the same time, the quality of products steadily increased, and the overall scrap rate decreased month by month, reaching the leading domestic level. At the same time as the first production line was put into production, on July 28, the second production line of the foundry center was officially started construction. The planned area is about 46,600 square meters. The main production of cylinder head castings is to produce an annual output of about 38,000 tons of cylinder head castings. . As of the end of August, the construction of the second production line has completed the “three links and one leveling†of the main plant site, part of the main excavation of the main plant, and procurement of some equipment. It is expected that it will be put into use at the end of 2010 and the production capacity will be greatly increased. The establishment of a foundry center not only meets production needs but also promotes product upgrades. Fuping said that the construction of the foundry center has been fully considered in the aspects of green environmental protection, energy conservation and emission reduction, and lightening of the labor intensity of workers. Its five major laboratories, including melting, core making and styling, have adopted highly automated and mechanized production methods. Effectively improve production efficiency, save resources and energy. The foundry center also applies Yuchai's patent for invention, which is currently applied for, to the “external annealing of castingsâ€, to the existing new casting workshop. This technology will fully utilize the residual heat of the casting, reduce the stress and the energy consumption of the annealing furnace, and achieve energy saving and environmental protection effects. With the completion of the foundry center, Yuchai's output will be even greater, and the products will have higher cost performance, better quality, and be more environmentally friendly and energy-saving, which will greatly increase the market competitiveness. It is estimated that by 2015, the output value of Yuchai Group will reach 80 billion to 100 billion yuan.
