Red Net Moment reporter Huang Yiping reported from Changsha
Spread out a world map, marking the projects that are applying Knight Pump Products one by one, Tianjin LNG Receiving Station, Sinochem Quanzhou Ethylene and Refining Renovation and Expansion Project, CNOOC Jinzhou 25-1 Platform South Oil and Gas Field Phase II Project, Indonesia Weidabei Power Plant, UAE Construction... It is not difficult to find that the Knight Pump Industry is going to the whole country and the world, and has played a big role in many major projects at home and abroad.
The years do not live, the seasons are like a stream. Always adhering to the "lean thinking", The Knight Pump Industry has continued to grow and develop for 22 years, with the introduction of new "product innovation" and top-down "integrity management", seizing the commanding heights of the development of the pump industry.
Break through import dependence, deep ploughing subdivision field to start the reputation of Hunan enterprises
"Knight Pump has always been a 'specialized, refined, special' enterprise. We focus on market segmentation, lean in product technology, to provide users with solutions, products can compete with domestic and foreign counterparts, with irreplaceable characteristics and quality", Geng Jizhong, chairman of Hunan Naipu Pump Industry Co., Ltd., defined the Naipu pump industry.
In 2000, Geng Jizhong led a group of technical backbones in the pump industry to establish The Nap Pump Industry in Changsha. "Initially, there were more than 20 people." In the past 22 years, Nepp pump industry has grown vigorously into a well-known brand in the pump industry, mainly engaged in industrial pumps, emergency rescue equipment and submersible pumps and other energy-efficient new products, the number of employees has increased to more than 350 people.
In Geng Jizhong's view, innovative products, integrity management and management capabilities are the core competitiveness of The Gap Pump Industry. "The development of the Knight Pumps industry has been steady, and we have always focused on market segments."
In 2012, PetroChina's liquefied natural gas (LNG) receiving station required a vertical long-axis seawater pump. At that time, all such equipment relied on imports, and the domestic pump industry did not see a breakthrough.
"This is a challenge, but also an opportunity." After unremitting efforts, Geng Jizhong led Knight's research and development of vertical long-shaft seawater pump with intellectual property rights, which successfully replaced the imported seawater pump that originally required more than 40 million yuan, and the quality and efficiency were better. In 2012, the product was rated as a national key new product by the Ministry of Science and Technology. In 2007 and 2017, Knight Pumps also participated in the development of national standards for vertical long shaft pumps and vertical inclined flow pumps.
Since then, the vertical long-shaft seawater pump has become the trump card product of the Naipu pump industry, and has been applied on the marine platform in the Bohai Sea, the South China Sea and other seas, which has made the industry remember the "Naipu" Hunan pump brand inside and outside.
22 years of non-stop steps, build a solid "base" for industrial manufacturing
In the last month of 2021, Liuyang Economic Development Zone ushered in exciting good news: Hunan Naipu Pump Industry Liuyang Intelligent Manufacturing Base officially started construction, and is expected to add more than 200 million yuan of output value per year after completion.
This intelligent manufacturing base covering an area of 32.57 acres will transform and upgrade the existing vertical long shaft pump and the new permanent magnet series pump production base, while expanding the production capacity of fist products, the new base will further enhance the informatization and intelligent capabilities, improve the quality and performance of pump products, especially increase the development of permanent magnet energy-saving series pumps and applications in multiple fields such as cryogenic pumps and submersible pumps, filling the technical gaps in the field.
However, this is only a small microcosm of the development of the Knight Pump industry.
As the leader of the domestic pump industry, Knight Pump industry has formed a design, production, assembly, testing, installation and commissioning, after-sales service integration of the production quality management system, the cumulative ownership of 51 granted patents, 3 software copyrights, participation in the formulation of national and industry standards 3, with 23 series, 247 varieties, 1203 specifications of the products, the products mainly serve petrochemical, LNG, marine platform, emergency rescue, electric power, steel, municipal, water conservancy and other fields, The product quality has been widely recognized by users.
In the Knight Pump Industry, technological innovation has always been regarded as the core competitiveness of enterprises. Chairman Geng Jizhong is busy with work on weekdays, but he also serves as the director of the Technology Research and Development Center, leading the team to carry out difficult exploration and overcome technical problems.
In his view, when Knight Continues to refresh its past impressions, show its technological innovation ability in the industry, and show unique competitiveness in the product segment, it just shows that the company is moving in the right direction.
Playing "first-hand chess", "new" technology activates the "old" advantage
Walking into the production plant of the Knight Pump Industry, dozens of automated production equipment are running at full speed, and the pumps weighing several tons are transported here after production and assembly.
When you turn your attention to the production base of Divo Technology, you may be surprised by the compact portable permanent magnet submersible pump. Here, mobile emergency drainage and rescue vehicles are parked in an orderly manner and are ready to go.
If you want to play a good development of "first-hand chess", key technologies must be laid out in advance.
Founded in 2012, Diwo Machinery is the first scientific and technological equipment manufacturing enterprise in Hunan Province engaged in the research and development, production, sales and service of emergency water supply and drainage equipment.
At the beginning of its establishment, Diwo Technology took the lead in launching the "Mobile Emergency Drainage Rescue Vehicle" with "High Flow Portable Submersible Pump" as the core technology in China, which was well received by customers. Nowadays, Changsha Diwo continues to innovate on the basis of the original products, and forms an emergency water supply and drainage series products suitable for various working conditions, not only has a flow of 150-5000m³/h, a head of 6-120m of various types of high-flow portable permanent magnet submersible pumps, but also a variety of high-flow portable (portable) permanent magnet submersible pump products and trailers, pickup trucks, containers, vans, amphibious crawler intelligent emergency drainage vehicles, domestic single flow of up to 5000m³ emergency equipment, products throughout the country 28 provinces.
On July 20, 2021, a particularly heavy rainstorm disaster occurred in Zhengzhou City, facing the people's lives and property trapped, Changsha Diwo Machinery Technology Co., Ltd., under the command of General Manager Geng Wei, urgently led the "Changsha Emergency Diwo Rescue Team", mobilized 34 rescue team members, 19 permanent magnet high-flow drainage trucks, 12 high-power generator sets, 137 sets of drainage units to support zhengzhou disaster relief work, and for 24 consecutive days of uninterrupted rescue, the total displacement exceeded 11.21 million square meters, using Changsha people to "eat bitterly and dominate the barbarians" The spirit of participating in and excellently completing the restoration of complex areas such as hospitals, subways, tunnels, etc., has won high recognition from the people of Henan and has been praised by the people's government of Henan Province.
Anchor the first-class enterprises, strategically lead the "pump" to develop new strength
"The unavoidable problem is that the pump industry is still full of challenges." Geng Jizhong believes that the market capacity of the pump industry is 500-600 billion yuan, the "ceiling" of the industry is very high, and the emergency rescue equipment industry is also in a fast lane of rapid development, "However, at the same time, many products in this market are still very dependent on imports." ”
However, Geng Jizhong also believes that through the joint efforts of the industry, the development of the domestic pump industry will get better and better.
If the manufacturing industry is stable, the economy is stable, and if the manufacturing industry is strong, the economy is strong. As a representative enterprise of advanced manufacturing industry in Hunan Province, Naipu Pump Industry keeps in mind the entrustment, actively practices the "three highs and four new" strategy, immerses itself in hard work, moves forward courageously, and uses the spirit of "breaking through", the momentum of "creating" and the style of "dry" to better serve the economic and social development of Hunan.
"We advocate 'lean thinking', with consistent craftsman spirit, sense of innovation and perfect corporate governance structure, unremittingly increase investment in research and development, and build The Knight Pump Industry into a first-class enterprise and a modern enterprise in the industry, and recently maintain an annual growth rate of 15-20%." Geng Jizhong said.
