The continuous spread of the new crown pneumonia epidemic, so that masks and other protective materials have become scarce supplies. At this critical moment, the social responsibility of some enterprises will appear, car companies have BYD, Guangzhou Automobile and SAIC General Motors Wuling three began cross-border production of masks. Other aside, the behavior of these car companies must be praised!
Shanghai Automobile General Motors Wuling hit the first gun, mask daily output is expected to reach 1.7 million
Car companies on the automobile General Motors Wuling took the lead in mobilizing supplier resources to produce masks. It is understood that SAIC-GM-Wuling is through the alteration of the production line to the production of masks, its original production space converted to 2,000 square meters of dust-free workshop, plans to build 14 new mask production line, of which 4 for the production line of N95 masks, 10 for the production line of the general medical protective masks. The daily output of the masks is expected to reach 1.7 million.
BYD to produce masks and disinfectant, expected to ship on Dec. 17, with a daily output of 5 million
BYD officials announced on Feb. 8 that the company will deploy resources to produce masks and disinfectant. Unlike SAIC-GM-Wuling, BYD is not realizing the mask production through joint conversion, but through the addition of a new business scope.
It is understood that BYD salary wholly-owned subsidiary Shanwei BYD Industrial Co., Ltd. has added a new business scope of disinfectant liquid product development, production and sales, while masks are produced by BYD Baolong nine. According to BYD said, the end of this month can achieve the mask daily output of 5 million, disinfectant liquid daily output of 50,000 bottles, is expected to be shipped around February 17th.
But it's worth noting that the first batch of masks and disinfectant solution produced by BYD will be donated to people such as bus, cab and online taxi drivers and volunteers before subsequent products are supplied to the market.
GAC visits mask maker, technicians learn mask production technology
On Feb. 6, the chairman of Guangzhou Automobile Group and his entourage traveled to Dongguan to visit mask production equipment maker Fast Yuda to learn about the manufacturing assembly and debugging technology of the mask production equipment and to study the technological feasibility of a new production line for the masks. And on the next day of the visit, GAC technicians went to the mask production company for learning.
On February 8, BAIC also declared that it was studying the creation of a mask production line, and was currently mobilizing resources to urgently demonstrate and study for early implementation.
Car companies cross-border production of masks, whether it is in line with the production of medical materials class access qualifications?
I believe that many people will have the same question with the author, that is, car companies cross-border production of masks, whether it is consistent with the production of medical supplies class access qualifications, and the production of masks and other products in line with national standards? In fact, this problem does not need to worry.
First of all, the qualification aspect, BYD said, for the medical supplies class production access qualification is actively preparing for the approval of the certification, and the government has also opened a "green channel" for the shortage of materials. That is to say, the masks produced by the car company will be in strict accordance with the current national standards.
Additionally, car manufacturers have an advantage in producing masks.
First, the site and equipment. Site, the automotive industry will generally set aside part of the site, like some of the automotive electronics industry itself has a clean room, anti-static workshop, etc., to be transformed and rearranged can soon be put into use; equipment, car companies, robots, fully automated equipment, automated transportation equipment, etc., and car companies have a wealth of product purchasing and supplier management experience, so for the masks of the equipment needs should not be a problem. The demand for mask equipment should not be a problem.
As for the personnel, due to the automobile parts itself for precision and safety requirements are extremely high, so the car companies have a large number of internal reserves of automation, quality control and other talents. Under the regulation of these talents, the quality of the mask can be guaranteed.
What is the role of an enterprise?
We often think, a company's responsibility is what? And this outbreak gives a good answer.
According to incomplete statistics, the automotive industry has donated cash and materials totaling more than 1 billion yuan, which is rare. Because the auto industry is not good in 2019, everyone is actually tightening their belts to live. But in the face of the epidemic, many car companies not only donate money and materials at the first time, but also put into the production of masks in the case of shortage of medical supplies, which is rare.
This is the embodiment of the social responsibility of car companies. With all the Chinese people in the same boat, we believe that this difficult time will soon be over!
