Just entered the industry, Li boss spent 500,000 yuan to buy a second-hand flexible production line, the results of the transfer found that the equipment was mortgaged, the court directly seized -Money and goods!Guess what? In the second-hand trade.35%'s title dispute all due to process loopholes! Don't panic! Today, we'll dismantle the whole process of avoiding lightning.Save 30% cost + speed up 15-day delivery👇
I. Pre-preparation: one step less = ten buried mines
"Just as long as the equipment works? Big mistake!"Flexible equipment is most afraid of dark injuries and title pits, and these three documents are missing:
- Equipment ID: Photo of nameplate + factory number (Call the original hotline immediately to check the record! 2024 a case 30% nameplate forgery)
- proof of ownership: Purchase invoice + tax clearance certificate (Focus on mortgage records! (A factory lost $800,000 in a seizure due to missed inspections)
- health file: Three-year maintenance record + key component inspection report (Flex cable must see flex life test! <(<5 million dynamic bends = scrap warning)
Tears of blood case: Dongguan Zhang total save 200,000 to buy "no case" equipment, put into production on the day by the original lock machine - dismantling found thatMotherboard serial number does not match the nameplate, the rights are not available!
Self-checklist::
- Does it exceed the design life of 80%? (If the design is 10 years, buy with caution if it has been in use for 8 years.)
- Does it come with a list of accessories? (Price increase of 3 times at a later stage if the type of wearing parts is not clear)
- Does the contract allow for a 7-day inspection period?(Dark Sickness Machine final escape door!)
Second, channel selection: three types of sellers hedge guide
Choosing the wrong channel = money down the drain! What's so special about flexible equipment?Spherical bearings and cable sheathing are the hardest hit by refurbishment.!
Channel Type | mortal risk | Flexible equipment exclusive countermeasures |
---|---|---|
change hands personally | No after sales + unclear title | Must check court seizure records + sign transfer agreement |
buy (on behalf of sb) from overseas | Tariff Stacking 30% + Parts Out of Supply | Confirmation of domestic agent's spare parts pool (otherwise it would take 3 months to wait for spare parts) |
Used dealers | refurbish and pass off as good | Ask for the ISO 14572 bend test report! |
Golden Rule::
✅Preference for local stockistsOn-site inspection saves shipping costs, and after-sales response is 3 times faster (over 45 days for disputes in other places).
✅Locking of detachable equipment: A factory Amoy scrapped line dismantled 80,000 worth of servo motors, the cost of the whole machine straight down 60%!
Third, the contract minefield: black and white to lock up these 3 articles
Signing an agreement without these = waste paper! Flexible equipment is most often planted in this::
1️⃣"Dynamic Performance Warranty Clause"
▶ WriteNo-load noise ≤ 60dB(Exceeded standard ≈ bearing scrapped)
▶Shield coverage ≥85%(otherwise signal interference shutdown)
2️⃣Default daily compensation formula
▶ Compensation for suspension of production = average daily production value × 2 (a factory recovered $220,000 in losses by this article)
▶Flexible line special supplement: joint bearing warranty ≥ 1 year!
3️⃣Clean Title Commitment
▶ "The seller guarantees that there are no mortgages or seizures, otherwise the deposit will be returned three times."
▶High resolution image with device serial number(anti-snare!)
With the words:
"Mr Chen, why don't you attach the customs duty payment slip and bearing replacement record to the contract attachment? After all, flexible equipment eats these two pieces the most!"
--This technique helped a certain price cut 15%.
IV. Delivery and acceptance: 4 steps to plug the final loophole
You think it's safe to sign the contract?30%'s Pit in the Acceptance Session!
Step 1: Delivery of on-the-spot title checks
▶ Check the status of your equipment on the National Movable Property Mortgage Registration System.
▶Highlights! Verify that the original serial number matches the contract
Step 2: Violent testing against dark diseases
▶Continuous Bending Test: 500 S-bends in 5 hours (direct return for joint noise)
▶Load Running Speed Test: Up to the design maximum speed of 120% operation (a factory did not test the loss of 180,000)
Step 3: List of documents to be delivered
▶ Original instruction manual + wiring diagram (without which the later maintenance fee is doubled)
▶ Warranty card + operator training video (to avoid damage from misuse)
Step 4: Final instalment payment
▶ Leave 20% final payment after 1 month of use (specialising in hidden faults)
▶Special terms for flexible lines: 3 days of trouble-free production at full capacity before billing
Exclusive data: the old hand's death-defying demotivation technique
▲ Cost Control Tips
▶Staggered purchases save 25%: Annual March Factory Upgrade Wave, Used Market Inventory Increases 40%
▶reorganisation method of disassembled parts: Amoy the same type of scrap machine assembled, the cost of the new machine 30% (an electronics factory test)
▲ Judicial Hazard Code
▶ Increased success rate in defending clear title equipment 76% (2024 White Paper on Secondhand Disputes)
▶ The contract states that "the place of arbitration is the location of the buyer" - the cost of local defence is reduced by 60%!
▲ Flexible equipment life formula
▶ Remaining life (years) = (10 million times - number of bends already made) / annual bending frequency
▶Example: has been bent 3 million times, annual frequency of 500,000 → remaining life = (1000-300)/50 = 14 years
Let's end on a positive note.: depth of water for used flexible equipment.It's not the price, it's the process.The first time I saw this, it was a very good thing that I was able to get it right! According to this set of steps, the rate of stepping on the pit is straight down 90%. turn to the friends who need it, saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda!
