A "small factory" of more than 60 people

Create annual output value of 60 million

Do you believe?

Today xiaobian will take you into this "small factory"

Zhejiang Shanggong Valve Co., LTD

Zhejiang Shanggong valve Co., Ltd. is a professional development, design, manufacture, sales of all kinds of ball valves as one of the comprehensive enterprises, is also a national high-tech enterprises.   The main products are fixed ball valve series, forged steel ball valve series, thermal insulation ball valve series and other industrial pipeline valves, widely used in petroleum, chemical, petrochemical, papermaking, mining, metallurgy, electric power, food pharmaceutical liquefied gas, water supply and drainage, mechanical equipment, fire, urban construction and other fields.

Machine replacement improves productivity

How did they manage to make $60 million last year with only 60 employees? There is no doubt that improving production efficiency is an indispensable condition. At present, the manufacturing industry is facing many challenges, such as rising costs, market competition and environmental protection. It has become a trend to transform and upgrade to intelligent manufacturing. Shanggong followed the trend and actively responded to promote transformation and upgrading. There is a slow shift towards intelligence in devices.

Shanggong upgrades its equipment almost every year, spending millions every year, nearly $4 million last year. Every year, companies retire old equipment that is technologically backward, or is wearing out or becoming less efficient, and replace it with new equipment. And the use of new equipment, so that the degree of automation is greatly improved, each equipment only need to be responsible for a few people, which correspondingly reduce the input of labor, cost saving, greatly improve productivity. This year, two more devices are expected to be in place next month.

In the process of upgrading equipment to improve production efficiency, the government also gave a lot of support. That is, every time the purchase of new equipment reaches one million yuan, Shanggong can apply for a certain subsidy from the government, which greatly reduces the investment pressure of Shanggong and helps shanggong to produce better and faster.

Laying a solid foundation for new and high technology

Amazing output value "creativity", not without technology. Work valve drive enterprise development by science and technology innovation, the company set up a technology research center, has a seven or eight people team of technical personnel, mainly engaged in valve technology research and development, including basic design, technical improvement, each link of the work team takes effort to do further research and development. In addition, as early as a few years ago, under the docking and cooperation between Lishui Industrial Park and science and Technology Bureau, colleges and universities, scientific research institutes, etc., SHANGgong hired a number of well-known experts to guide the research and development work, to further improve the research and development technology and innovate products.

Since 2013, shanggong has obtained more than 20 national patents in the field of valves by virtue of various independently developed valve technologies. In 2015, Zhejiang Provincial Department of Science and Technology publicity to identify the national high-tech enterprises list, Zhejiang Shanggong Valve Co., LTD. It can be said that high and new technology is the "secret" of more than 60 people to create 60 million output value.
