Pottery production in the future only need to be fired

The ceramics industry is a labor-intensive industry with poor production conditions. With the increase in labor costs, enterprises that rely on traditional handicrafts will be difficult to survive in the fierce competition. In recent years, the continuous rise in raw materials and continuous increase in labor costs have caused bathroom companies to suffer and they are eager to upgrade. Recently, Xiao Bian visited the national sanitary ceramics mold center production base and director of research and development center, Changshun ceramic mold founder, mold development and production industry master figure Mr. Chen Xujiang, learned that its current research and development of high pressure molding mold, will greatly enhance the bathroom The degree of mechanization produced by the company provides technical assurance for the industry upgrade.

New molds to increase production efficiency The new molds are the first to solve the problem of human resources. In the traditional mold, grouting is a kind of labor process that requires high physical strength. In the “work shortage” environment, workers are increasingly difficult to find, and fewer and fewer workers are willing to do this type of manual work. Need to improve the ease of mold operation, once the high-pressure molding mold is developed and put into production, the use of pipeline pump pressure grouting, will require the original needs of a large number of workers simplistic and easy. It is important to note that the rate of injection of embryos is very fast. One embryo per day can only be injected with a single gypsum mold. The number of embryos a worker can draw out in one day is only a dozen, and the number of embryos per day in a high-pressure mold is not small. In 40, and the use of workers will be greatly reduced. Comparing each other, the high pressure mold saves plant space, saves manpower cost, and has fast production efficiency. This will become the future trend of sanitary ceramics production.

The second is cost savings. The traditional molds currently in use are greatly influenced by the climate during production. Air temperature and humidity have a tremendous impact on the formation and final firing of ceramic embryos. High-pressure molds are not affected by air humidity and temperature, and the quality of sanitary ceramics produced will be more stable. This has long been proven in the production of sanitary ware in foreign countries. In addition, the traditional gypsum molds are constantly worn during use. From the clear and fuzzy edges, the amount of mud is continuously increasing. However, the pass rate of molding is continuously declining, and the cost of artificial embryo repair is also increasing. The ageing of molds is increasing, and the cost of production is increased unconsciously. Usually the cost of calculations by companies is calculated in accordance with the costs incurred when the new molds are in the best state, often neglecting the ever-increasing cost calculation after mold wear. . Once the high-pressure mold is developed and applied, it will be able to save the cost, and it can be seen by the discerning people.

The second is the long service life of the mold. According to Chen, the service life and use frequency of a high-pressure mold can be used for 4-5 years after the expert's demonstration. The frequency of use is about 50,000-60,000 times, and the number of uses of a traditional plaster mold is 80. -120 times, the ceramic enterprise is equivalent to using two sets of plaster molds in one year to meet the production. This is a detailed account, the cost of a single mold, the cost of plaster molds used in 4-5 years, is already a burden on the manufacturer, not to mention there are a variety of losses, labor costs, plant rents and so on. Stability is better than everything. Low loss is a big saving. It not only overcomes the impact of climate, but also stabilizes product molding, reduces labor costs, and improves production efficiency. Although high-pressure forming mold R&D has not yet been completed, it has obtained numerous phases. Hope.

The new mold led to new ideas for the industry. Based on the successful R&D of high-pressure forming molds, Mr. Chen recently proposed with other experts the idea of ​​future sanitary ceramics production: the future sanitary ceramics production area will become a system network, and this network The starting point is in the porcelain mud production base. Porcelain mud production base will purchase professional porcelain clay mixing machinery, and the mixing and mixing of good mud will be sent to each ceramic production plant by setting up similar oil transmission pipelines. Manufacturers can directly use high pressure molding grouting to inject embryos and save the purchase. The process of re-processing the porcelain clay itself is only responsible for firing the embryo.

If it develops smoothly, the future manufacturers can also save the embryo injection process. The industry establishes professional embryo implantation factories and tailor-made professional mechanized production equipment. Workers only need to follow the computer program to complete the injection of embryos. Hygiene ceramics manufacturers only need to go to the embryonic plant to purchase molded embryos and then return it to fire. It is also possible to sign a production contract with the embryo injection manufacturers. Provide its own unique high-pressure molding die. Under this scenario, the social division of labor will reach a greater degree of detail, and the responsibility of the original manufacturer to be distributed to each of the different production organizations will be responsible. The sanitary ceramics manufacturer will only need to be fired, and it will be liberated to the maximum extent possible. Manufacturer pressure.

Imagine providing ideas for industrial upgrading If the above assumptions can be realized, the changes to the sanitary ceramics industry will undoubtedly be enormous and will result in a chain reaction change. First of all, it reduces the demand of workers and reduces the labor intensity. The simple computer operation will only need to find a few young people locally to train for a period of time before they can be employed. The second is the saving of production costs, without mud processing, injection of embryos. , Embryo, large-scale production plant area, a large number of staff quarters, transportation costs, the cost of various other raw materials, etc., the environment, transportation industry will be improved chain. Specialized in the industry, porcelain clay manufacturers have always done the soil, the understanding of the soil is better than anyone, and ceramic manufacturers have been responsible for firing ceramics, the grasp of the heat is also the industry's first. The advantage of division of labor lies in this, each manufacturer can concentrate on their own products, so that they can become more and more refined.

According to President Chen, in June, the Guangdong Provincial Government will hold a 'Guangdong Provincial Enterprise and Foreign Enterprise Joint Venture Contract Signing Meeting', and President Chen will send this idea as a project to the provincial government for evaluation. If the evaluation passes, it will serve as A project that may cooperate with enterprises outside the province on the signing of a joint venture contract between a Guangdong enterprise and a foreign enterprise. At the same time, this project will also be jointly developed with the 'Yanyang Ceramic Research and Design Institute'. This kind of news proves that this idea is not a fantasy. If the cooperation can succeed, the future Chaozhou sanitary ceramics production base will make a substantial leap. The entire Chinese sanitary ceramics industry will achieve a qualitative leap.
