Anhui foundry industry cluster has begun to take shape

When it comes to Ningguo City, Anhui Province, in addition to the familiar names of “Hometown of Chinese Pecans” and “Hometown of Bamboo in China”, it also has a “title” in the foundry industry – “China's Wear-resistant Casting Capital” .

In 2009, the city's wear-resistant castings production value reached 4.1 billion yuan, wear-resistant castings accounted for nearly 21% of the country. Through the rapid development since 2000, the city has initially formed a wear-resistant casting industry cluster based on key enterprises, small and medium-sized enterprises, and related products centralized production and cooperation. Its leading Anhui Fengxing Wear-resistant Material Co., Ltd. (Ningguo Wear-Resistant Materials General Factory) is the largest in Asia and the second in the world.

When promoting the construction of the foundry industry cluster has become one of the important means of industrial restructuring, transformation and upgrading, and is determined to be the future development direction, the first step of the Ningguo wear-resistant casting industry cluster will undoubtedly have a small demonstration effect.

So how do you do it locally? Where will the next step go? At the 9th China Foundry Association Annual Meeting held recently, Wang Pu, member of the Standing Committee of Ningguo Municipal Committee and executive deputy mayor, answered this question one by one.

Sketch: the capital of wear-resistant castings
The wear-resistant casting industry in Ningguo started in the 1970s. At present, the industry has a scale of assets of 1.5 billion yuan, employing nearly 10,000 people, with an annual production capacity of 800,000 tons, and over 67 of the 118 enterprises, over 10 million. There are 21 yuan enterprises, 6 enterprises with 100 million yuan, and 1 enterprise with more than 500 million yuan.

Around the production of more than 100 products in eight series, such as grinding balls, castings, forging balls, lining plates and steel ball molds, the city has also formed production and supply of raw and auxiliary materials, casting process equipment, related molds, heat treatment and testing. The development and manufacture of equipment, and the comprehensive utilization of warehousing and logistics and industrial waste.

According to reports, as of now, Ningguo wear-resistant castings enterprises have more than 150 patented technologies, including 65 national invention patents, filling a number of gaps in China's wear-resistant materials industry.

With the continuous enhancement of technological innovation capabilities, the core competitiveness of related companies is also increasing. According to Wang Pu, Ningguo wear-resistant castings production company has established more than 30 branches in and outside Anhui Province, and has established long-term cooperative relations with more than 3,000 enterprises in 31 provinces and cities in China. The products are exported to the United States and Canada in batches. In Australia, Argentina, Pakistan and other 30 countries and regions, the production capacity and market share rank first in the industry.

At the same time, as one of the pilot cities of circular economy in Anhui Province, Ningguo City has paid more attention to guiding the enterprise to extend the recycling chain of resources within the industry and the industry, and to improve the comprehensive utilization rate of resources. As the slag, slag and waste oil produced by various enterprises are sold to cement enterprises as raw materials, and some scrap metal and waste sand are recycled and reused, the wear-resistant casting industry utilizes more than 300,000 tons of scrap metal every year.

Analysis: The road to industrial clusters
After careful elaboration, the key practices of Ningguo City to promote the development of the casting industry cluster are as follows:

First, focus on building a development carrier platform. The local government insists on the construction of the park as the carrier, utilizes the advantages of regional resources, and specializes in the fine wear-resistant casting industry, continuously promotes the formation and extension of the industrial chain, encourages scattered enterprises to enter the district to gather and cluster development, and strives to form a prominent division of labor and close coordination. An industrial group with significant economies of scale.

In the past three years, Ningguo City has invested nearly 1 billion yuan, with a planned development area of ​​more than 40 square kilometers, and a built-up area of ​​12 square kilometers. More than 90% of the wear-resistant casting production enterprises in the city are concentrated in the Hegang Industrial Zone and the Heqian Industrial Belt. Within a specific geographic area. The relative concentration of production areas has created favorable conditions for the intensive development of the wear-resistant industry.

Second, focus on building industry cooperation platforms and technical service platforms. In September 2007, the city established the Wear-resistant Casting Industry Association to lead the company to jointly resist the storm and open up the market. As early as 2003, the local renewable energy industry association was established to effectively guarantee the supply management of raw materials for the wear-resistant casting industry.

Scientific and technological innovation is the lifeline of the development of wear-resistant castings. Ningguo City actively strengthens the construction of enterprise innovation platform, guides enterprises to strengthen new product research and development, and builds a technological innovation mechanism for production generation, reserve generation, and development generation. The municipal government has also set up 5 million yuan of new product research and development incentive funds to encourage enterprises to increase investment in research and development. For technical transformation and technological innovation projects with a fixed asset investment of more than 5 million yuan at the provincial level and above, a 20% subsidy will be given according to the interest on the actual loan of the project.

It is understood that the city has 2 state-level high-tech enterprises, 25 provincial-level high-tech enterprises, and 43 provincial-level private technology enterprises, of which wear-resistant castings production enterprises account for a considerable proportion. At the same time, the local community has spared no effort in the construction of the structural upgrading platform. It has successively issued documents such as “Opinions on Encouraging and Leading Enterprises to Merger and Reorganize (Trial)”, accelerating the adjustment of industrial structure; and formulating the access conditions for Ningguo wear-resistant casting industry. Eliminate and limit backward production capacity and increase industry concentration; fully promote the merger, reorganization, cooperation and cooperation of wear-resistant casting enterprises, and cultivate a group of large-scale leading enterprises with international competitiveness, specialized production centers and “specialized special new” The group of small and medium-sized enterprises forms an industrial pattern with complementary advantages and coordinated development.

In addition, the local government is also committed to building a policy support platform and financial service platform. Wang Pu said that from the entrusted Anhui Economic Research Institute to compile the "Ningguo City wear-resistant castings and other industrial cluster development planning", to organize the implementation of the wear-resistant industry "2151" project, determine a number of wear-resistant castings key investment and development projects, to Continuously improve the financing mechanism of coordination and linkage of government and bank enterprises, further reduce the threshold of secured loans, and provide effective guarantees for wear-resistant casting enterprises. Ningguo City has created a good development atmosphere for enterprises in all aspects.

Target: National first-class research and development base
"To prevent technology, management level and production efficiency from being low, environmental pollution is still simple and agglomerate, and the development mode is effectively changed." Talking about the industrial restructuring and transformation and upgrading of the foundry industry, attending the industry and the 9th China Foundry Association Annual Meeting Miao Wei, deputy director of the Ministry of Information Technology, stressed.

In his view, "the foundry industry agglomeration should focus on improving the organization of production, rational allocation of resources, increasing investment in technological transformation, promoting advanced manufacturing technologies and cleaner production methods, improving material utilization and production efficiency, and reducing energy consumption. Reduce pollutant emissions."

In this regard, the Ningguo Municipal Government, determined to build Ningguo into a national and even world-class production base for wear-resistant castings, is also confident in the next step of the industry.

Wang Pu said that Ningguo City will promote the research on the development strategy of wear-resistant casting industry, compile the innovation and development plan of the industrial equipment manufacturing industry, and guide the construction of a new pattern of industrial development with the guidance of planning; Introduce and further extend the industrial chain; standardize the production and operation of enterprises, establish an evaluation system for wear-resistant castings production enterprises, and implement a backward elimination mechanism.

"Accelerate the construction of technological innovation system in the wear-resistant casting industry, encourage enterprises to carry out technological innovation and cooperation on key technical processes, gradually form industrial technology alliances and innovation systems, and at the same time establish and improve incentive mechanisms for talent innovation," Wang said. Grasping innovation and promoting industrial transformation and upgrading will also be the focus of future work.
