“Without innovation, there is no Fast today.” At the end of February of this year, when a joint research team of 13 national ministries conducted research on the construction of the national independent innovation demonstration zone in Xi'an High-tech Zone, Fast chairman Li Dakai said firmly. Rapidly developed from an unknown "third-line enterprise" to become a giant in the auto parts industry. From the loss-making large-scale households in the province's machinery industry to the leading enterprises and taxpayers in the revitalization of the equipment manufacturing industry in Shaanxi Province, Fast has experienced an innovation. road.

Independent innovation to create products that suit the national conditions

Fast's predecessor, the Shaanxi Automobile Gear General Plant, is a three-tier company founded in 1968. The factory has developed the first generation of 5J80T transmissions for China's first generation of military off-road vehicles and achieved zero breakthrough in domestic heavy-duty transmissions. In 1985, it imported dual-shaft transmissions from abroad as an important standard for heavy-duty vehicles. Boosted the rise of China's heavy-duty vehicles.

From the late 1980s to the end of the 1990s, like many state-owned enterprises, the development of the Shaanxi Automobile Gear Plant fell into distress. “The product is aging and the system is rigid. There is no salary, and the foreign debt is several hundred million.” Tian Qinchang, formerly head of the company's human resources department, witnessed all this. In 2001, with the reform of a new round of state-owned enterprises, Shaanxi Automobile Gear Factory was renamed Fast, and it also started an old state-owned enterprise innovation.

"Double-shaft gearboxes imported from abroad have always had various problems in use and are not suitable for China's complex terrain and road conditions." Li Dakai, who is technically advanced, knows the importance of technological innovations for products and is determined to create suitable products for China. National conditions of transmission.

In view of the shortcomings of the original imported product stalls being only 5 gears, the company independently developed multi-position gears of 6th, 7th, and 8th gears, up to the 10th, 12th, and 16th gears. transmission. Currently, Fast, only the automotive transmission products are supplemented by double countershafts, and independently developed a high, medium, and low-grade complementary development pattern. There are more than 40 series and thousands of products, and they are realized in the 4th to 24th gear market. All-round coverage, widely matched to various models such as heavy-duty vehicles, buses, medium and light trucks, engineering vehicles, mining vehicles and low-speed trucks with an input torque of 400-3000 Nm and a load capacity of 3 to 60 tons. . The products are selected as the fixed-point supporting products by more than 150 kinds of domestic automakers and exported to the United States, Australia, Eastern Europe, South America, Southeast Asia, the Middle East and more than 10 countries and regions. The market share exceeds 70%, and the market has more than 5 million units.

Take the lead and use technology innovation to lead the market

Whether it is to adapt to market demand for the development of production, or whether it has led the market in the foreseeable future and led the market, Fast chose the latter.

In order to seize opportunities for development, Fast has adhered to the concept of “production generation, trial generation, R&D generation, and concept generation”. It has established a technology development system that combines independent development and technological innovation with the introduction of technology, digestion and absorption, and collaborative development. , Has invested billions of dollars to build an innovative platform, built a state-level enterprise technology center and specialized intelligent production lines and other advanced R & D and manufacturing base.

Large-scale Swiss die-casting equipment in Fastfax factory in Baoji

In the old base of the Baoji Fast, two large die-casting equipment from Switzerland are eye-catching. "This is the world's top equipment. There are only two in China. We are here." He Dongdong, deputy director of the Fast Institute of Technology, said proudly.

Today, Fast has internationally advanced modern forging production lines, CNC machining production lines, heat treatment production lines, and assembly production lines to ensure more stable product quality and higher accuracy.

The National Enterprise Technology Center and Academician Expert Workstation owned by Fast have focused on grasping the pulse of the market and developed a large number of new products that meet the needs of customers. Taking into consideration the energy shortage and environmental conservation trends, the company proposed a product lightening idea and independently developed a series of new transmission products that adopt lightweight design of the all-aluminum alloy housing. The average weight of each transmission was reduced by more than 100 kg, which became a high-end model for domestic heavy trucks. The main push products represent the highest level in China's gear industry; taking into account the increasingly higher requirements for vehicle comfort and operability, AT automatic transmissions and AMT automatic transmissions have been developed to reduce the driver's fatigue strength and achieve automation. As the country attaches more importance to safety, Fast has also developed a new generation of hydraulic retarder products, breaking the monopoly of foreign companies in the domestic heavy-duty vehicle brake system market, its superior slow-speed performance, fully satisfied New requirements for efficient deceleration and braking of medium- and heavy-duty vehicles; taking into account the long-term planning of the country's energy strategy, we are now developing a hybrid transmission...

At present, Fast has authorized 274 patents, and 100% of them have been converted into scientific and technological achievements to achieve industrialization, ranking among the forefront of the national gear industry. Among them, patents such as “lock pin type automobile synchronizer” were authorized by the United States Patent Office’s invention patent. The company's self-developed series of 10 full- helical gears, 20-speed heavy-duty transmissions, and AMT, AT automatic transmissions, and hydraulic retarders have quickly captured the market's commanding heights, formed a scale development advantage, and become a new economic enterprise. growth point.

All staff innovation, sound mechanism to stimulate business vitality

In Fast, whether Xi'an or Baoji, Xianyang factory area, whether it is a research institute or a first-line workshop, can feel the atmosphere of innovation.

On March 11th, 2015, in the 6DS area improvement activity display board of the Second Toothwork Workshop of Baoji Plant Area, the improvement results of the month were displayed: the “One Axis Retainer Groove Card Board Design” invented by the workshop worker Ao Jiangping won the first prize; The improved “Chip Trough for Lathe Chip Chuck” won second prize and so on. What is even more amazing is that even Li Xinlian, the cleaner, has promoted the “Improvement of Discharge of Floor Cleaning Agents”, which was also awarded the third prize. “Each before the improvement, we will use 80 barrels per month. According to her method, only 35 barrels per month, 25 yuan per barrel, and $13,500 a year will be saved. Therefore, this is also the scope of our encouragement and commendation. It will be conducted every month," said Wang Lei, deputy director of the KTJ office at Fast.

“In recent years, we have focused mainly on technological innovation, but management innovation has also been strengthened. The most effective implementation is KTJ, which has been implemented since 2009, that is, scientific improvement, efficiency improvement and cost reduction,” said Li Dakai.

Fast Transmission Production Line

The intermediate shaft production line is the first production line used by Fast to implement KTJ lean improvement activities. In the first year after the transformation of lean production, a total of 19.5439 million yuan was saved, and all the 80 improvement projects submitted were successfully completed. With the continuous deepening of KTJ activities, production efficiency has increased significantly. The daily output of single-line production has increased from 900 in the previous day to 1,250 today. With more work being done, the labor intensity of employees has been greatly reduced, and with the effective advancement of multi-energy work, an operator can perform 2 or 3 types of work, which greatly balances the labor pressure among different types of work.

According to Chang Hengchen, the assembly workshop’s KTJ promoter, the improvement of the improvement level is not only the production efficiency, but also the employees’ ideology. From passive acceptance to active improvement, from individual highlighting to full-scale popularization, the spirit of KTJ has become common practice.

It is reported that in order to encourage scientific and technological personnel to forge ahead with innovation, Fast has adopted a number of measures, such as the establishment of the "Science and Technology Innovation Award", the highest award for the award of 1 million yuan, and the selection of "10,000 yuan per person" and employee independent innovation Excellent innovation projects, to be commended and rewarded.
