When it comes to fasteners, some people don't know what they are, but when they mention its common name - screws, they will understand.
In the eyes of many people, fasteners are not rare, and they think that they do not have much scientific and technological innovation content. In fact, this is not the case. In today's industrial world, technological advancement has brought about tremendous changes and development.
In Ganyu District, Lianyungang City, there is a company specializing in the production of high-performance connection auxiliary bolts and high-performance large-size bolts - Jiangsu Yongyi Fasteners Co., Ltd. Here, fasteners, known as the "rice of industry", forge powerful new productivity.
Recently, the author walked into the nationally certified fastener inspection and application laboratory of Yongyi Fasteners, and rows of developed instruments came into view. Thanks to its emphasis on research and development, Yongyi Fasteners empowers traditional industries through technological innovation and transformation and upgrading, cultivates new productivity, and becomes a specialized and special new enterprise in Jiangsu Province and a leader in exporting China's high-performance connection auxiliary bolts to Europe. "In the past few years, our company's sales have risen steadily. It will be 260 million yuan in 2022 and 280 million yuan in 2023. Since the first quarter of this year, orders have maintained steady growth." Wei Changhong, the company's production manager, said.
How do small fasteners "grow" into high-precision ones? Enterprises are always exploring and moving forward.
It is understood that the company's founder and core team have more than 30 years of experience in fastener R&D and manufacturing, have participated in the formulation of national fastener standardization many times, established cooperative relationships with many universities, and obtained numerous fastener technology patents. The best answer is the "Yongyi No. 1 List" on the company wall. Wu Maoshuang, the company's technical director, pointed to the "list" and introduced them one by one: "The first company in the industry to actively respond to and win the EU anti-dumping investigation, the first to apply fully automatic hot heading equipment for large-size bolts, the first to The first batch of fastener inspection and application laboratories that have passed national certification... These more than ten industry firsts are all achievements made by Yongyi who are not satisfied with traditional industries and have always attached great importance to research and development."
Mentioning "the first company in the industry to actively respond to and win the EU anti-dumping investigation", Sun Liyue, chairman of Yongyi Fasteners, still couldn't conceal his excitement: "From 2021 to 2022, in the EU's anti-dumping investigation against China, During the investigation, we argued with the European Commission for a year, argued with evidence, used multilateral trade settlement rules, and proved from many sources that the fasteners exported by Yongyi did not cause actual damage to the EU industrial industry. Passed We worked tirelessly and finally won the case, making our greatest efforts for fair international trade. Currently, Yongyi has the lowest tax rate among all EU exporters in China."
Faced with the mention of new quality productivity today, Yongyi Fasteners has also made plans in advance, focusing on fastener products, increasing research and development efforts, and riding on the "east wind" of technological innovation-driven development to climb high and pursue new innovations.
"Our company now produces more than 50,000 tons of high-performance fasteners per year. The entire product process and the complete set of bolts, nuts, and gaskets dedicated to connection pairs are produced in-house, making the quality more reliable and controllable." Sun Liyue said, "New Quality productivity, the core lies in scientific and technological innovation, and the key lies in the transformation of results, with the goal of high-quality development. For example, the application of automated production lines such as fully automatic hot heading equipment for large-size bolts, a fully automatic hot-dip galvanizing production line for fasteners, and a fully automatic domestic heat treatment line, etc., to produce The efficiency has been greatly improved. The application of technologies such as the phosphating-free process for cold heading production, the pickling-free process for the entire bolt production process, and the low-temperature blackening technology for fasteners has reduced the pollution caused by production. These are the benefits of new productivity to traditional industries. able."
It is understood that Yongyi fastener products are widely used downstream, including ship components, photovoltaic supports, wind power towers, petroleum equipment, steel bridges and tower cranes, etc. The sail-hull connection solution for my country's first unpowered sail tanker was provided by Yongyi Fasteners.
