The Wenling Pump Valve Industry accounts for a quarter of the output value of the local scale industry, which brings about 200,000 jobs. Wenling, which covers an area of 36 square kilometers, will create 6 billion yuan in output value by gathering high-end intelligent manufacturing enterprises and talents. Since January this year, Wenling Pump Smart Town has been promoted to the second batch of Characteristic Towns in Zhejiang Province. Various resources and elements are being integrated and reconstructed in the new carriers of characteristic towns, and this pioneering land is once again full of vitality.

Excellent Technology Matching "Shape Revolution"

Since March, Leo Group, located in Wenling Industrial Zone, has been accelerating production. At the 10th China Pump and Motor Exhibition held recently, more than 45,000 purchasers from all over the world gathered in Wenling, bringing 347 million orders to the local market. Leo Group also entered the fast lane of production.

In the stamping workshop of Leo Group's spare parts factory, you can see a special production line. The latest robots on horse realize automation in feeding, welding and casting aluminium. One person only controls two machines, but the per capita output increases by 70%.

Garden pumps come down from the assembly line, and then enter the shell coloring link. It used to be gray and black, which was not very impressive and had a low resolution. After improvement, Leo Group's new products are not only no longer bulky, but also subvert people's impression of the monotonous color of pumps: yellow, bright red, green... Colorful Leo Garden Pump brings warm and bright colors to the front. The development of more than 40 color systems has brought about nearly double sales growth for Leo.

Nowadays, when we enter Leo's product exhibition hall, the fountains controlled by different head pumps are delicate like an umbrella, or beautiful like a rainbow in the early sunshine after rain. On the shelf, after experiencing the "shape revolution", garden pumps of different shapes are unified into the color between green and blue. This is based on the company's R&D department brand development strategy, the final conclusion of the "Leo Se", and has applied for patents.

Intelligent devices are in use

104 National Highway Wenling Daxi Section, busy. The road, which is five kilometers long and 50 meters wide, is known as "Pump Street", and it is named after more than 700 pumping enterprises on both sides of the road. Qiantao Pump Industry is located on the west side of the road - although the annual output value of the company is 100 million yuan, the site is less than 5 mu, to the high-altitude key areas, the plant area reaches 120,000 square meters.

This dilemma is confirmed by the Haubei pump industry next door. "After 20 years of development, we have also encountered bottlenecks in production, but the factory buildings are broken, the space is small, and the good equipment for transformation can not come in." Mr. Guan Mincheng, chairman of Haubei, said.

The start-up of the pumping industry's smart town is undoubtedly an opportunity for Wenling's pumping industry to start afresh. Haubei Pump Industry and Qiantao Pump Industry did not hesitate to catch olive branches and raised 15 mu of land respectively. Zhao Fuzeng, chairman of Qiantao Pump Industry, told reporters that after moving to a small town, it would be impossible to continue such extensive production. He wanted to introduce robots to improve production efficiency, and green waste gas treatment facilities should be in place immediately.

Leo Group invested nearly 200 million yuan to enter the intelligent digital factory. "Drop-drop" - With the group parts factory director Li Mingxi mobile phone text message prompt sound, the actual number of pump housing processing, operator name, first inspection qualified degree and other series of data, through the Internet of Things system, real-time transmission to the mobile phone. Grafting the "smart brain" of the Internet of Things, the company will realize intelligent and digital management of the whole process from design, processing to testing and equipment. It is expected that the automation rate of key equipment will be more than 80% in 2017.

More pumping enterprises abide by the spirit of craftsmen, focusing on product innovation and operation in the field of subdivision, revitalizing the large market from a small incision. Zhejiang Dayuan Pump Industry Co., Ltd. has been focusing on the research and development of small canned pumps. At present, the domestic market share has exceeded 30%. Wenling Xinlei Air Compressor Co., Ltd. has been the leader in the field of air compressors after 20 years of innovation and development. In Wenling, the pump and motor industry will also vigorously develop intelligent integration, focusing on entering the industrial pump, medical pump and high-end air compressor market.

Find the right problem and fill the short board

A few days ago, the reporter entered Wenling City Product Quality Supervision and Inspection Institute, a set of pump comprehensive performance testing system is running, five staff cooperate with each other to test the new equipment just developed by the enterprise.

It is a pump testing center integrated with testing and scientific research, and one of the six major centers in the construction of Wenling Pump Town. It is accelerating the construction of the second national pump product quality supervision and inspection center. After the completion of the small town, the testing center will move as a whole, not only to achieve intelligent testing process, relying on the high-end talents attracted by the small town, but also to provide services for 85% of the pump products in the smart town and surrounding provinces.

"Through the inspection of product quality of enterprises, participating in the formulation of national and industrial standards, the testing center is committed to promoting the transformation of pump products in small and medium-sized enterprises." Jin Shibin, senior engineer of the testing center, believes that the construction of Zhijian Town is also a process of "finding problems and making up shortcomings". Compared with the world-renowned pump enterprises, there are still shortcomings in Wenling's pump enterprises, such as inadequate R&D and design capabilities, silent brand name and so on.

"Intelligent high-end pump industry" and "growth pump enterprises", these keywords define a clear future for small towns. In addition to the application of "cryogenic technology" in Wenling Pump Industry by the Chinese Academy of Sciences to solve the problem of pump shaft deformation, the New Territories Pump Industry, one of the high-end intelligent pumping enterprises, will be joined by China Airlines.
