In China, automobiles have become the pillar industries of the national economy. The development of the automobile and parts industry in Liuzhou is quite large and it is an important industrial town in Guangxi. The reporter recently learned that Liuzhou, relying on the vigorous development of the auto industry, has accelerated the expansion of the automobile industry scale and plans to invest 70 billion yuan to build the “100 billion automobile city” that is closest to ASEAN. After completion, it is expected that Liuzhou will add 150 billion yuan worth of industrial output in 2015. "One Thousand Auto City" includes functions such as vehicle manufacturing, parts and components, automotive commerce, and services, while auto parts extend the value chain of the auto industry.

What are the characteristics of informationization of these auto parts companies? What are the characteristics? What commendable experiences are shared with peers? This reporter walked into Liuzhou and visited Wuling Liuji, Longjie Auto Parts, Yinxiang Group, and Liuzhou Guoji. And other auto parts companies. The reporter found that these companies are all green and environment-friendly companies that meet the development trend of modern automobiles, accompanied by domestic industrial software, and believe that the automotive industry in Liuzhou will achieve a good and rapid development.

Long Jie Auto Parts: Let Design Realize Knowledge Management

“Since we have introduced the advanced CAXA PLM design management platform, the results of the design department have become the accumulated knowledge of the company and the overall technical strength has been greatly improved. Now we have been able to participate in the technical research and development of the entire vehicle company, while others Most auto parts factories still stay in the foundry state according to the drawings.” Deputy General Manager Xu Liusheng of Liuzhou Longjie Auto Parts Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as “Longjie Auto Parts”) told the reporter, “Involved in the research and development of the entire vehicle company in advance, It can be considered in advance what structure is optimized and what process cost is the lowest."

Xu Yinsheng, who graduated from the university in the 1990s, gave up the work assigned by the state and took the first bus of his own choice. He resolutely joined a private company to do basic design work. Because he used the CAXA electronic drawing board, he could always Fast and good completion of the design tasks delivered by the leadership, won the appreciation of the leadership and was quickly promoted. Currently, he is the deputy general manager of Longjie Auto Parts and is responsible for the company's R&D and information file management. And what he called PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) software includes a series of software for key businesses such as bidding, project design, product design, process design, manufacturing, and maintenance services. Together with ERP software, it is a wide range of machinery manufacturing companies. Another hot topic of concern is generally considered by industry professionals to be the basis of ERP software.

Longjie Auto Parts was founded in 1997. In 2005, it began to produce sheet metal pulleys, idlers, tensioners and various automotive stamping parts. Products are widely used in automobiles, garden machinery, agricultural machinery and other industries. It has been produced for Shanghai General Motors, Shanghai Automotive, SAIC-GM-Wuling Automotive, and Yulin Diesel Engine Factory. The company's sheet metal belt pulleys have the advantages of light weight, beautiful appearance, small moment of inertia, simple structure, and reliable connection, which can effectively improve the vehicle's dynamic performance and meet the requirements of the vehicle's low fuel consumption and light weight. At the same time compared with the traditional cast iron pulleys, sheet metal belt pulleys have the advantages of more environmentally friendly production process, higher production efficiency and lower energy consumption. At present, the company has obtained six national patents, one of which has won the National Venture Capital Award.

The idea of ​​letting Long Jie Auto Parts launch the PLM platform is a supplier to Long Jie Auto Parts. A few years ago, a major supplier of Longjie Auto Parts had problems. Long Jie Auto Parts found that they could not find the drawings of some products while tracing the root causes of the problems. Some products had several drawings. It turned out that not long ago, they had left a file control staff, and newcomers to the company did not know much about the company's technology and products. Understand the causes of the incident, Long Jie auto parts management attaches great importance to Long Jie auto parts in addition to several products to supply the OEM market is small-volume production, the rest are in large quantities. If this situation occurs in Longjie Auto Parts, it will cause incalculable losses, and then it has generated the idea of ​​using a certain management system to effectively manage all the company's drawings and technical data. After the contact between Longjie Auto Parts and CAXA, China's largest PLM software supplier, the management concepts of the two parties coincided and the CAXA PLM management system was successfully introduced.

“Our Longjie auto parts system systematically managed all the design data of the company in only two weeks. At the initial stage of application, some designers did not adapt to the new management system. We took the method of controlling the print output. The comments were also made on the PLM platform, which allowed the designers to gradually adapt to the document management system.” When talking about the implementation of PLM, Xu Zongtao said.

After implementing the PLM R&D platform, the original scattered drawings have been effectively managed. After receiving orders from users, technicians only have to search through the existing technical database and find out what similar or similar products have been done before. Corresponding drawings are redesigned, which greatly improves the speed of product development and shortens the development cycle. When the personnel change, the succeeding person can understand the original designer's design ideas and reference materials in the figure document, and can quickly enter the design state and improve the design efficiency. In the communication with the OEM, the advantages of the wide compatibility of CAXA software are fully reflected.

Not long ago, Mr. Paul, the global supporting system manager of U.S. General Motors, and his team visited Longjie Auto Parts Co., Ltd. to inspect and negotiate with them. The members of the delegation included the important accessory product procurement manager of U.S. General Corporation. After visiting some of the production sites, they expressed their appreciation for the technical management and production process of Longjie Auto Parts. The two sides conducted discussions on the production status of domestic sheet-metal belt pulleys, the lightweighting of automobiles, and the company scale, product variety, and development planning of Longjie. The conversation confirmed the identity of the general supplier of Longjie Auto Parts.

Yinxiang Group: speed up group management

The successful implementation of the PLM R & D platform is also the Yinxiang Group, a company that mainly produces various non-road wheels. There are about 200 kinds of products, and the main supporting manufacturers are Liugong, Xiagong, XCMG and China Railway Design Institute. Single to large quantities.

Because Yinxiang Group’s subordinate Yuxiang Company is a young enterprise with a good information foundation, the company began to attach great importance to the construction of the information platform. Therefore, Yinxiang Group first promoted and applied the domestic CAXA electronic map in the design department of Yuxiang Company. Board and figure document management software. Yuxiang Wei, deputy general manager of Yuxiang Company, told reporters: “Because CAXA software is easy to learn and use, and supporting resources are abundant, most designers are quick to get started with CAXA software. Our graph document management system has also been implemented smoothly. System data query is quick and easy, and the product catalog is clear at a glance. For technical executives, after data is centrally managed, security is ensured. The most prominent point is that the uniqueness of product data is guaranteed, which is crucial for the successful implementation of the ERP system in the future. important."

Director of the Yinxiang Group Office Huang Linfang told reporters: “With the help of the CAXA chart document, we have adopted an online and highly centralized management method, which enables the company’s latest scientific research results to be controlled by the company in real time, thus eliminating the core intellectual property losses of the company. The technical center of our Yinxiang Group is now a Guangxi-level technical center, and our products have been leading the country."

The management of Liuzhou Yinxiang Group has a clear understanding and a clear plan for informationization. After Yuxiang’s smooth implementation of the PLM system, Yinxiang Group plans to promote the CAXA series of software to subsidiaries such as Yinxing Wheels and Yinxiang Machinery. The company also plans to use VPN networks to connect several production sites and implement OA, ERP, and other information platforms, so as to concentrate the company's design power and production capabilities, and play a greater role in creating a trusted market for consumers. famous brand.

Liuzhou Guoji: Safeguarding Data Security

Since entering the 21st century, China has gradually increased the emission standards for automotive engines. The engine electronically controlled fuel injection system (referred to as the "EFI system") is an important technical means for achieving compliance. Speaking of the EFI system, the reporter recalled an international seminar on automobile emissions that he had attended many years ago. The schedule of the meeting originally arranged for a visit by a well-known foreign fuel injection system manufacturer. When the conference delegates arrived at the door of the company, the company suddenly changed to bring the conference delegates to the local luxury hotel for a long time. It is understood that the injector is the most important actuator in the electronically controlled fuel injection system of the vehicle, and can also be compared to the "soul" of the EFI system. Although more than ten years ago, foreign manufacturers introduced the product into China, but the relevant technology has been kept secret, so the drama has just appeared. As the core technology of EFI has been controlled by foreign companies, China has not made fundamental breakthroughs in the core components of EFI. As a result, the Chinese auto industry has had to hand over hundreds of billions of profits generated by this advanced technology to others over the years.

Liuzhou Guoji Industry Co., Ltd. is a high-tech enterprise specializing in the production of gasoline engine solenoid valve injectors, EFI systems and other key components of automobiles and motorcycles. In 2005, Liuzhou Guoji Industrial Co., Ltd. cooperated with famous universities to develop a solenoid valve injector with gasoline engine with independent intellectual property rights. It fills a gap in domestic high-tech products and not only ended the long-term monopolization of domestic EFI systems by foreign manufacturers. History, with the characteristics of reasonable design, excellent manufacturing, and superior performance, has reached the advanced level of similar international products. In 2008, it was awarded the "Invention Patent Certificate" issued by the State Intellectual Property Office, and the national Torch Program was submitted in the same year. Now mainly for the automotive aftermarket sales, with the auto vehicle companies also achieved a phased breakthrough in the cooperation, a number of models of products will enter the mass production phase.

Affected by foreign counterparts, Liuzhou Guoji also attaches great importance to technical confidentiality. In early 2008, the CAXA PLM R&D management system was introduced. It is worth mentioning that CAXA PLM not only protects the intellectual property of Liuzhou Guoji Industrial Products, but also protects the data security of Liuzhou Guoji's production process and equipment. Minister Zhou Peng of Liuzhou Guoji Industrial Quality Control Department told the reporter, “In order to ensure the leading technology and technological advancement of our products, the core equipment and fixtures of our injection valve production line are all developed by us and all drawings of the production line equipment are also Stored in the PLM system, only a few engineering and technical personnel have permission to view.

Liuzhou Guoji is currently undergoing evaluation and selection of ERP software. With the successful implementation of PLM, the Liuzhou State Machine is full of confidence. "We hope that the ERP software can interface with our PLM platform so as to maximize the effectiveness of ERP and PLM software." Zou Peng added.

Wuling Liu Machine: Build a modular design

Different from Longjie Auto Parts and Yinxiang Group's successful implementation of the PLM R&D platform, the Liuzhou Wuling Liuji Power Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as “Wuling Liuji”) located in the same city has some twists and turns. Wuling Liuji was founded in 1928 and is China's largest micro-vehicle engine production base. It is a national large-scale second-class enterprise and one of the top 500 machinery enterprises in China. In recent years, it benefited from the rapid development of the automobile industry and the national automobile industry. In the revitalization plan, engine sales have increased year after year. In 2010, it is expected to reach 650,000 units.

Because Wuling Liuji has a long history, many years of development have allowed companies to accumulate a large amount of technical data and have formed certain document management standards. Product documentation has always been managed by humans, and management work has been carried out in an orderly manner. However, with the rapid development of the market in recent years, there are more and more derivatives, and the traditional management methods are somewhat overstretched. The management team began to innovate the informationization of PLM technology research and development.

Yuan Xuan, Manager of Technical Management Department of Wuling Liuji, participated and witnessed the change. He told reporters that after Wuling Liuji had been in the CAXA PLM R&D management system in previous years, the number of engine components was as many as 6,000 or so, and the borrowing relationship and version relationship between product drawings was very complicated. Some people doubted that PLM R&D management. Whether or not the system can manage such complex relationships has led to the PLM management platform being in a state of shelving for more than six months. Nobody cares. After experiencing some low-level mistakes in the duplication of part numbers, the leaders of the technical management department finally made a determination to change this phenomenon, and the graph document management system was reactivated. In the related classification of engine components, the product design adopts a modular design mode, and all data are managed in a centralized manner and shared with related personnel according to the authority. When designing the product, the designer only needs to pull out components, such as the cylinder block, cylinder head, crankshaft, connecting rod, piston, camshaft, and valve, etc. that meet the requirements from the PLM system. The cycle is greatly shortened.

Another gain from the implementation of the PLM R&D platform is that data security has been effectively guaranteed. In order to ensure the superior performance of the engine, the core components of the engine, such as the cylinder block and cylinder head of the engine, are produced by Wuling Liugong. However, the product information of these core components is stored on the server and is shared by files. The authority cannot be effectively controlled. A large number of personnel can access the product data. The security of the core data is beyond discussion! CAXA PLM R&D Management The system centralizes all data, including these core data, to the server, manages it using database technology, performs strict encryption in CAXA diagram files, and assigns rights to R&D technicians to ensure that only a few authorized personnel can Browse for use.

At the CAXA 2011 New Product Tour Liuzhou Railway Station meeting, Yuan reminded the technical directors of manufacturing companies from all over Guangxi to share the information technology construction of Wuling Liuji. “Before we used the Wuling Liu Machine in the PLM system, the designers lacked communication with each other. Some components, such as the hoop on the engine, had to be drawn from scratch when the designer needed it. In fact, the same type of pipe hoop may have already Drawing a lot of times has caused a large amount of man-hour waste for designers, and this situation is commonplace in many non-informational companies.With the PLM R&D platform, we first built a product structure tree using CAXA diagram files, and straightened out the products. The borrowing relationship and the version relationship between parts have increased the speed of drawings and reduced the occurrence of errors. "Yuan Yuan said," At the same time, our management can also know the progress and status of product development through the PLM system at any time, which helps to improve Product design efficiency. CAXA PLM system has been operating steadily since its implementation until now and has become an important basic management platform for Wuling Liuji's design and process department."
