简体中文 Think about it, the production line suddenly stops, the boss is in a hurry, the workers are staring blankly - a check is actually a cracked conveyor belt! Suppliers can not get through to the phone, the maintenance team delayed to come ... this kind of scene, engaged in the factory who has not experienced?Pick conveyor line company, just look at the price and advertising? That's really stepping in a big hole every minute!After more than ten years of equipment purchasing, I have learnt my lesson the hard way.Recognising these 5 qualifications is a hundred times more useful than listening to sales bluster!
🔧Scenario 1: Conveyor belt suddenly breaks, supplier dumps it? --Check the basic qualifications first!
Thousands of tonnes of goods on the production line under pressure, the belt "click" a broken, direct production stops for half a day loss of hundreds of thousands of dollars! At this time, if the supplier's hands spread out: "We do not have the safety standard qualification, do not dare to repair ah", you have no place to cry!
Mandatory check items.
- Business Licence + Production LicenceWithout these two is an unlicensed black workshop, it is difficult to find someone in case of an accident;
- Manufacturing licence for special equipment: Conveyor lines involving pressure and high temperatures are a must, and coal mines and the chemical industry should be especially kept on their toes;
- Safety Standard Certification (MA/KA): Conveyor belts for coal mine must be with MA labelling, otherwise the security check will be stuck directly!
A case of blood and tears: A mine in Shanxi, trying to cheaply choose a small unlicensed plant, conveyor belt breakage triggered blockage, was safety supervision fined 800,000 + suspension of rectification - save the money doubled out of the payout!
📜Scenario 2: Failed quality control returns? --ISO certification is the bottom line!
Purchasing boy signed the contract in a hurry, arrived at the goods a test - wear resistance is not up to standard! Returns? Supplier tug of war: "We did not sign a quality agreement ah"...
Mandatory check items.
ISO9001 Quality Management System Certification::
- Without this certificate is equal to no quality control process, raw material procurement, production is all by hand;
- Focus on the scope of certificationIt says "Conveyor Manufacturing" to make it count, and you're fooling around with tyre certification? Directly pass!
Teacher's experience: Have vendors provideQuality inspection reports for the last six monthsThe wear-resistant layer thickness, tensile strength and other parameters must be black and white - just take a copy of the certificate? Eighty per cent is bought!
🚨Scenario 3: Equipment leakage and fire? --Safety licence saves lives!
The duty phone rang in the middle of the night: "The conveyor line motor is burning, and smoke is coming out of the workshop!" A check is the wire insulation layer jerry-built...
Mandatory check items.
Safety production licence::
- State mandatory requirements, proving that the company has the ability to control safety;
- You can't tell the grade by looking at it.: Level 3 certificates can only do simple equipment, large mine lines have to look for companies with Level 1 certificates!
hidden details of the industry: Some factories use recycled rubber to save money, which releases toxic gases when exposed to high temperatures!Check the traceability records of raw materials-What you can't provide, you can't have even if it's cheap!
⚙️Scenario 4: Smartline frequently dies? --Industry-specific certification is the hard power!
Invested several million on the automation line, the results of the sensor every day false alarms, times the speed of the chain card into a "constipation chain"...
Mandatory check items.
- CE certification (required for export)EU security pass, without which you can't even connect to the harbour equipment;
- Functional safety certification (e.g. SIL): The heart of an intelligent conveyor line, an uncertified PLC programme is the equivalent of a time bomb;
- brand authorisation: With German doubler chains and Japanese motors? Must see original authorisation! There are too many used refurbished sold as new!
Smartline purchasing know-how: Let the supplierLive demonstration of the same type of project--For example, the car factory to demonstrate the whole car assembly process, just put the PPT of all as a liar!
🧪Scenario 5: After-sales delay for half a year? --The proof of technical strength is the ultimate trick!
Equipment installed faults constantly, after-sales calls always "next week to send people"...
Mandatory check items.
- Patent certificate/technical report::
- surname ZhaUtility Model Patent No.(Official website can be verified), no patent is equal to no core technology;
- regard asLoad test dataFor example, "230 tonnes of heavy-duty continuous operation for 1,000 hours without failure", bragging is directly visible!
- Installation qualification level::
- Level 1 qualifiers can take on large projects, while Level 3 qualifiers can only install small belt lines;
- Focusing on the biographies of technical leaders: Engineers with more than 10 years of experience lead the way for a solid installation!
anti-skimming technique: Before signing the contractUnannounced factory visits--Look at the production line to see if it is neat and tidy, whether the quality control table is in use, the warehouse is cluttered, the equipment accumulates dust, run quickly!
💬Personal view: qualification is the ticket, the real world is the litmus test
After all these years of fiddling around, I've come to my senses.The credentials are as complete as they are, but they have to be verified on the ground!For example:
- Coal mining projects must be checkedFlame retardant belt with coal safety certificate + underground installation cases(Don't buy into the "get a licence now" crap);
- Food Factory Focused LookFDA food-grade certification + clean room real photoThe ISO22000 is not enough;
- When signing the contractWithholding of 10% final payment, paid in full six months after acceptance - the one who dares to promise is really reliable!
Dump the big truth at the end.The "assured" conveyor line company, must be fully qualified, case hard, after-sales service on call!According to these five levels of sieve down, to ensure that your production line turned more stable than a clock!
