Selected times the chain must see: different configurations of rice price comparison and avoid the pit guide

​"Why do some people quote $1,000 for the same metre-long multiplier chain and others dare to ask for $10,000?"This problem is like a newbie how to quickly increase the powder as crazy - the surface looks simple, but the water is so deep that it can drown people! Today we will use the vernacular to peel off the bottom of the industry, look at the end you go to buy equipment, to ensure that you are not fooled around.

First, the truth of the price difference: four configurations directly determine the life and death of the

I just joined the industry at that time also confused, and then ran around the factory to understand that the price all depends on the configuration of the rating (to put it bluntly, "materials enough to be ruthless"):

  1. ​Simple beggar's version ($1000-2000/m)​

    • What to do: light work such as assembling small electrical appliances and sorting couriers.
    • Disassembled to see: carbon steel frame + miscellaneous motors, running not much faster than walking (≤ 5 m / min)
    • ​Where's the pit?: Dongguan Li bought cheap 1800 yuan / metre, the results of the installation fee charged another 2600! Calculated per metre cost of rubbing up!

  2. ​Prime grade for labourers ($2,000-5,000/m)​

    • Carrying work main: car parts, mobile phone assembly such work (80% factories are using this gear)
    • Conscientious configuration: aluminium alloy rail + domestic motor with base tensioning device
    • ​market price: The mid-range goods on 1688 are basically stuck at 1500-2500 yuan per metre, and the price/performance ratio is the most stable at around 3000 yuan!

  3. ​Landlord special edition ($5000-10000/m)​

    • Playing scenes: new energy batteries, heavy machinery and such ruthless characters
    • Expensive for a good reason: stainless steel rails are 30% more expensive directly! If you add a servo motor, add another 2000+ per metre!
    • ​A case of blood and tears: A factory in Shanghai to buy the HELV004-01 model, the base price of 5000 yuan / metre, the result of the electrified transport function and an additional charge of 15%

  4. ​Burning customised models (10,000+/m)​

    • Dazzling speciality: medical equipment, chip production line
    • Inside the sky: stuffed with robot arms, AI quality control modules, the debugging fee alone is enough to buy a regular piece of equipment

Second, the four big assassins poking and prodding price against this table to save 30%

​the "rip-off" routine​ ​price water​ ​break a move​
​material science​ Carbon steel → aluminium alloy → stainless steel The difference is up to 30% Food factory choose stainless steel, ordinary workshop aluminium alloy is enough
​electrical engineering trick​ Normal motor → servo drive 2000-3000 extra pits per metre Don't touch servo if it's not precision work, inverter motors are more fragrant.
​add extra drama to a feature​ Automatic tensioning/electrified transport 10%-15% per item of overcharge Don't pay for features you can't use!
​an aura of foreign influence​ Imported vs Domestic Multi-Hollow 20%-50% Non-highly sophisticated production line? Domestic first line is more cost-effective

​lit. real people fall into a pit (idiom); a real person falls into a trapShandong Wang boss figure cheap to buy "5000 yuan / metre" equipment, the contract did not write clear load-bearing parameters, the results of the chain slipping every day, the maintenance fee smashed into more than 100,000 yuan!The contract must be signed in black and white: what is the maximum load and speed error!​

Third, the connoisseur to save money trick manufacturers will never tell you

  1. ​The longer it is, the cheaper it is.::
    Single line more than 30 metres, the unit price can be cut! 40 metres of production line is cheaper than 10 metres per metre 15%, the principle is very simple - the drive system only needs to be fitted with a set of

  2. ​Buy equipment like Lego.::
    Get the basic frame (standard 250-900mm wide) first, and add upgrades like servo motors later.for example: Install $2,000/m base line for the first period, then add the servo module in the second year to save 30% over buying the high-end model outright!

  3. ​Clutching Channel Wool::

    • Manufacturers around industrial zones are cheaper than in big cities 20% (some factories in Changzhou can also inspect goods on site)
    • The mid-range equipment on 1688 is concentrated in 1500-2500 RMB/m, remember to choose "pay after inspection".

Soul Blast: Do you really need multiplier chains for your line?

​"Speed less than 5 metres/minute? You can get it for $500/m for a regular roller line!"The core of the speed chain is to make the work plate run faster than the chain (double speed 2:1, triple speed 3:1), if there is no such need, change the ordinary conveyor line to save half of the money directly.

​And finally, something offensive.In the cost of the so-called "$10,000 high-end chain", 35% is paying for your anxiety. Remember the formula.True Cost = Base Price × (1 + Material Factor + Function Factor)Take the comparison table in the previous article to calculate their own, so that manufacturers can not fool you a penny - after all, our money does not come from the wind, have to spend on the knife edge ah!
