Qidong Electric Tools Industry Transformation and Development

In the domestic electric tool industry, talking about Tianyi in Qidong City is almost unknown. Tianyi, after years of adjustment and promotion, has become China's important power tool R & D and industrialization base and exhibition center. Among them, sales accounted for "half of the country."

In the “Eleventh China Qidong·Tianyu Technology Hardware Fair” co-sponsored by the China Electric Appliance Industry Association’s Electric Tools Branch and the Qidong People’s Government this year, nearly 1,000 Chinese and foreign companies were attracted to participate in the exhibition. Ten thousand person-times, the turnover amounted to as high as 4.5 billion yuan, all set a record high.

“The power tool industry is a featured industry that is emerging in the city’s economic development. The key to this industry’s ability to grow stronger and bigger is to innovate the public service platform for science and technology, accelerate the improvement of independent innovation capabilities, and promote the industry. The overall level of development to high-end.” Said Mao Hongyu, director of the Qidong Technology Bureau.

According to the person in charge of the Qidong Electric Tools Chamber of Commerce, in order to promote the power tool companies to improve their independent innovation capabilities and improve their overall technological level and competitiveness, they are located in Qidong City and Tianzhu Town (now merged into Lusigang Town). Under the leadership, in September 2005, Qidong Sugong Power Tools Technology Innovation Center was established. In recent years, the center has continuously expanded the public service function of the platform and promoted the power tool industry under the strong support of the Electric Tools Branch of the China Electrical Appliance Industry Association, the Shanghai Electric Tools Research Institute, and Jiangsu, Nantong and Qidong. The development has achieved positive results and was named "Jiangsu SME Technical Service Demonstration Platform".

Unlike the public service platform for science and technology established in the past, Qidong Tianyi Power Tools Technology Public Service Platform does not rely solely on government investment, but it is powered by the National Electric Tools Industry Productivity Promotion Center (corporate) and Qidong Electric Tools Industry Association. Legal person) and Lu Jianxin (natural person) were jointly formed.

The center is dominated by the government, with the chamber of commerce as the main body, relying on the National Power Tools Productivity Promotion Center and the Shanghai Institute for Electric Power Tools, and adhering to the principles of openness, public interest, and market-oriented operation, it provides public services to Qidong and surrounding areas. Independent operation and independent financial accounting.

What is more noteworthy is that the center uses the director responsibility system under the responsibility of the board of directors in the organizational structure. The new systems and mechanisms have effectively demonstrated their advantages in science and technology resources and soon formed a team with a high level of expertise in public services. At present, the entire center has 20 existing staff members, including 10 senior professional titles, 4 intermediate professional titles, and 6 general technical personnel.

At the same time, the center has established six service platforms, namely: enterprise science and technology information service platform; scientific research and inspection service platform; transformation and promotion of scientific and technological achievements; service platform for quality certification; intellectual property service platform; professional exhibition service platform.

"Through these platforms, Qidong City and its surrounding areas will provide new product development, design testing, product testing, inspection services, certification services, exhibition services, personnel training, and enterprise information services. By doing so, it will fundamentally solve the problem. In the past, the problem of decentralized and inadequate corporate resources met the needs of the company's technology and product development,” said Mao Hongyu.

Take the center to carry out product testing. With the support of the Shanghai Electric Appliance Testing and Testing Institute and the Qidong Quality Supervision Bureau, the center jointly invested more than RMB 2 million with the Chamber of Commerce to build the Qidong branch of the Shanghai Electric Apparatus Testing and Test Institute, and quickly launched the electric tool product inspection business. Since 2005, more than 1200 batches of electric power tools and more than 900 batches of stator and rotor have been inspected, and more than 270 technical improvement suggestions have been submitted for 115 companies, effectively improving the quality of Qidong Electric Power Tools products, and enhancing The overall technical quality of the enterprise.

Let's take a look at doing business training. In response to business needs, the Center has conducted more than 30 sessions of MBA special courses, power tool production site management, corporate teamwork training, Sun Tzu’s art and corporate management, SME development strategy management, corporate rational tax avoidance planning, and testing of power tool products. The company's management training seminars have attracted more than 2,200 participants. Together with vocational schools, they have trained technicians and senior technicians to more than 3,000 person-times. They have solved employment difficulties for enterprises and have effectively improved the quality of employees and management of enterprises.

In addition, the center also vigorously promotes cooperation between industry, universities and research institutes. Over the past few years, we have actively helped companies to build bridges, strengthened research with the Shanghai Electric Tools Research Institute, Guilin Institute of Electrical Science, Xi'an Electric Power Equipment State Key Laboratory of Electrical Insulation, School of Mechanical Engineering of Xi’an Jiaotong University, School of Mechanical Engineering of Southeast University, School of Mechanical Engineering of Nantong University, etc. The connection and cooperation between units and universities provide support for the promotion of technological innovation. Among them, the companies and research institutes have promoted substantial cooperation in the use of auto-cooling motors, carbonless brush motors in the use of power tools, linear motor tool project development and small air compressor technology improvement, and achieved good results. Effectiveness: Actively help companies apply for patents. Since 2005, they have helped companies declare 28 invention patents and 86 utility model and appearance patents. Encourage enterprises to create engineering centers. At present, a total of 12 municipal engineering and technology centers in Nantong and 5 provincial-level engineering and technical centers have been completed.

What is even more gratifying is that the establishment of a technology public service platform has effectively promoted brand cultivation. The center cooperates with Shanghai Aesop Quality Certification Center and other service agencies and actively provides enterprises with system certification, brand name products, famous trademarks, and other reporting services. Helped more than 60 companies pass the ISO9000 series of quality management system certification, more than 300 companies passed the 3C certification, registered trademarks 398. To help Dongcheng's "Dongcheng" and "DCA", Guoqiang's "Guoqiang", "ACE" and other trademarks were registered in more than 30 countries such as Madrid treaty countries. Helped Dongcheng and Guoqiang company's series of products to successfully apply for inspection-free products in China, and achieved a breakthrough in Jiangsu's power tool products as a national zero-inspection product. The company successfully helped to declare one well-known trademark in China, 12 famous trademarks in Jiangsu Province, 10 brand-name products in Jiangsu Province, 23 well-known trademarks in Nantong City, and 21 brand-name products in Nantong City.

According to reports, the center further strengthened the characteristics of the exhibition on the basis of strengthening technological innovation services, prompting the “China Qidong Tianhao Technology Hardware Fair” to become an effective carrier for the majority of the electric tool industry to grasp the market conditions and realize the convergence of production and sales. The international and domestic popularity and influence have been continuously improved, which has effectively stimulated the development of the electric tool market in Qidong and even the whole country.

The center also established a special database of business websites and power tools to guide enterprises in e-commerce. Helped Dongcheng, Guoqiang, Hengfeng and many other companies establish corporate websites and provide information technology services. The company has developed and implemented a special data information system for Qidong Electric Tools Co., Ltd., which has developed more than 1,400 corporate members, registered 2,254 registered users, registered 1,150 companies, issued 1,400 pieces of information, and recorded more than 150,000 total records.

The innovative development model, in the form of market-based mechanisms and intermediary services, provides SMEs with complete and high-quality services, and promotes the rapid enhancement of the regional industrial competitiveness. It can thus be seen that Qidong has embarked on a brand new approach to success in the construction of a technology public service platform.
