Auto parts independent innovation focuses on words


Since the country has raised the requirement of independent innovation to the height of the policy, this topic has always been the top spot in the industry. Whether or not a car has high technology is reflected in auto parts and parts. Therefore, this independent innovation has also scratched the auto parts field. Most companies are desperately relying on this word regardless of whether they have real technology and are happy about it. . Once someone jumps out and sings a negative tone, he will immediately be met with an indiscriminate "stick hit". The level of impetuosity is evident.

Having core technology is the lifeline of a company. It's nothing wrong with it. It's also a good thing. The problem is that at present, certain parts and components companies are better than others, and they think that they have participated in several independent innovation forums and have made several impassioned speeches. They have become the subject of independent innovation, and they seem to be laughing.

Put an end to impetuosity

Some parts and components company CEOs told reporters that in the past two years, the Forum on Independent Innovation has been blossoming. Sometimes there are more than a dozen independent innovation forums in the country every month. People are kindly invited to participate in the forums. .

"After all, the company is currently in a stage of development and growth, and it cannot always be reputed that it does not pay attention to the reputation of independent innovation." The CEO reluctantly said that because of the limited number of years in the automotive industry, it is impossible to identify the level of the forum and the role it can bring. The organizer As well as attending the guests' posts as the standard to measure their participation, "If there are company customers, we must be obliged to participate. Sometimes, all the company's top managers are sent out to participate in the forum, the company has something, only through The telephone commander solved it."

The words of the person in charge of the company reflected the voice of a group of parts and components company executives. The weak position of China's domestic parts and components companies has determined that they must always turn around the vehicle factory. If they neglect it, the customer may be snatched away.

The complexities of forums of various names are the buzzwords of the industry, and this impetuous style also exists in many parts and components companies: emphasis on formalism, “thunder and thunder, and small raindrops”. From time to time, some “will establish an R&D center. How many professor-level and high-level R&D personnel will be recruited? These are high-profile, but there is no practical action behind this "chanting." No matter what product, whether it is a self-made technology or a purchased technology, as long as it is produced, it will be marked with the concept of independent innovation, and this will lead to various kinds of patent disputes.

Are there subjective desires, enthusiasm, or the introduction of several new equipment from abroad equivalent to independent innovation? Of course, the answer is no, but it is a considerable part of the current enterprise's understanding of independent innovation. "This is a long and difficult and complicated process. We must take the initiative. If we always wait for the state to send funds and send technology, we will lack the perseverance and determination to make it difficult to succeed," said a senior executive of Wanxiang Group.

China's self-owned brand car companies have gradually grown, multinational auto giants have stepped up their "China procurement," coupled with shorter and shorter product development cycles for domestic OEMs, prompting OEMs to devote their energies to vehicle development and assembly technologies. And production, the demand for other auto parts, to a certain extent, depends on the external independent parts and components factory. These factors allow local auto parts companies to see opportunities, but also realize that they are in an embattled position.

According to statistics, currently more than 70% of the world's top 100 parts suppliers are operating in China. There are nearly 1,200 foreign-owned or joint venture companies that manufacture auto parts in China. On the other hand, China's spare parts industry has not been effectively rectified.

How to win in the squeeze of a series of world-renowned parts and components companies such as Bosch, Delphi, Mangner and Valeo, the key is to down-to-earth and truly develop their own products. Chen Bin, deputy director of the Development and Reform Commission's Industry Department, believes that an important symbol of self-development is that the company has its own product trademark, which needs to be obtained through independent development.

Do not "taste and fish"

According to media reports, the annual investment in technology research and development of auto parts companies in China accounts for 1%-2% of sales revenue. Most SMEs are still in a stage where they have no R&D capability or almost no R&D investment. The situation is severe.

In this regard, the reasons for local auto parts manufacturers seem to be sufficient. "The size of the company is too small to spend money on research and development. Moreover, we also cannot afford to spend time. It took us a year or two to develop a technology that people have long squeezed us." In mid-September. At the "2006 China International Automobile Industry Development International Forum," the boss of a parts and components company told reporters.

He said that some foreign-funded parts and components companies have scaled up through long-term operations, and the time to fight with them is no different than hitting rocks. As a non-influential small-scale parts and components company, currently only limited funds can be spent on To cope with the immediate market, first grab some market share and say it.

“Independent innovation is not to talk about it so easily. If you want to feel easy, just sit in my position and try it out.” The words are not rough, and the above remarks of the bosses reveal on the surface whether there is a chicken or egg first. The problem, but it can not withstand scrutiny. "The lack of body care, in the end, chickens, eggs, all the results of what is said, this is a kind of ambiguous and fishing practice." Another company's R & D manager issued a voice of opposition.

In this regard, some experts believe that local auto parts companies must do what they can. Small scale, less investment, only focus on one or two products with core advantages, small and precise; large scale, more investment, appropriate expansion of product lines. However, we must absolutely not engage in R&D without an excuse for lack of technical support or financial strength. Without strength, it will eventually be the fate of being eliminated.

At present, this situation is changing. With the gradual improvement of the domestic intellectual property protection system, parts and components companies that used to imitate the past have been unable to achieve rapid development. Some companies with strategic vision have begun to touch the river and increase investment. Conduct research and development.

It is understood that about 50% of parts and components companies in Guangzhou have established corporate R&D centers, of which Huanan Rubber Tire Co., Ltd. has a provincial R&D center. Another example, Yangzhou Yapu Auto Parts Co., Ltd., this year's investment in research and development is expected to exceed 30 million yuan, compared with last year, almost doubled. Relevant data show that these parts and components companies with leading position in the industry have annual R&D investment accounts for more than 4% of sales.

From "small and refined" development to "big and full," companies have many ways to go. Experts suggest that parts and components companies start from their own reality and tailor their clothing to find a development model that meets their actual needs.

According to industry sources, in the current industry situation, there are mainly three models for the development of auto parts companies: First, the centralized dependency model represented by the components of the Auto Group and FAW-Fuyang Auto Parts Co., Ltd. The company’s parts and components companies conduct unified and coordinated management; the second is the independent development of parts and components represented by Wanxiang Group, which is independent of the vehicle manufacturer and provides complementary supply and service for multiple vehicle companies; This is a model of a merger-and-parts-components group represented by the Hunan Torch. It relies on capital operations such as mergers and reorganizations to take shortcuts to rapidly expand its scale and strength and form large parts and components groups.

Cultivate a dominant company

As the leading enterprise of independent innovation, it is the highlight of the auto parts industry. Recently, several Chinese parts and components companies disclosed the three quarterly reports. Among them, Fuyao Glass's net profit increased by 41.9% year-on-year; Ningbo Huaxiang, which produces interior and exterior trim systems, expects the company's third-quarter results to increase by more than 300% from the same period last year; Aerospace Electromechanical's main air-conditioning company expects net profit for the first three quarters of the year. It will increase by more than 100% year-on-year; FAW Four Rings, which had a loss of 69 million yuan in the first three quarters of last year, said that it expects to achieve profitability in the third quarter of 2006; net profit for the first half of this year is basically the same as that of the same period of last year. Facts have proved that as the scale goes up and the strength increases, the company can make profits. However, only a few leading companies are far from enough for the huge automotive industry.

It is understood that the globally stronger parts and components companies are relying on their own strong vehicle industry to grow and develop. Delphi and Visteon in the United States, Bosch in Germany and ThyssenKrupp in Germany, and parts and components giants such as Denso and Aisin Seiki in Japan have also proved this statement.

However, in a sense, China's spare parts companies are in the same boat as local automotive design companies and cannot enter the interior of multinational auto companies. To promote their rapid development, however, they also rely on the strength of Chinese auto makers with independent purchasing rights. . “This is a win-win situation. On the other hand, how can low-quality and poor-quality parts and components assemble high-grade cars?” some experts said.

Taking the road of large-scale development and cultivating leading enterprises is a necessary stage for the growth of the industry. This cannot be separated from the support of the government. It is reported that in South Korea, the government plans to provide US$91 million in funds for the auto parts industry by 2008 to support the establishment of technology innovation centers, education and training, and information and communication networks. By 2014, the South Korean government will also provide US$65.24 million in funds to assist auto parts companies in developing automotive core technologies such as liquefied gas fuel vehicles and fuel cells. Compared with South Korea, we obviously have not done enough.

He Desheng, a specialist in carrier rockets and autos, believes that China can also try to establish a national technology development team to integrate existing domestic technology resources. This is also very tiring and laborious, but it is very useful.

As a commercial entity, all are economically efficient. If Chinese parts and components companies truly have the characteristics of low prices and high quality, and meet their supporting standards, on some day, domestically produced engines can become the “heart” of a joint venture vehicle.



Flat Gasket

Flat gaskets provide the static sealing of two flat sealing surfaces. Since flat gaskets are especially used in the chemical industry, but as well in the food and beverage and pharmaceutical industry. For secure sealing, a flat gasket is used; contact pressure is applied to it.
These flat gasket sets are made of high quality material that will not corrode or fade, and can be used for a wide variety of applications such as kitchens, hallways, entryways, cabinets, doors, windows, cars, lockers, laptops, computers, computer monitors and other flat metal parts and appliances.
