What are the six skills of field visit to gas boiler plant?

When purchasing the gas-fired boiler, the enterprise will generally require to visit the boiler factory at the later period of boiler procurement. Via visiting the boiler factory, the enterprise can have a comprehensive understanding of the operation process, production scale, product quality details, corporate management level, factory shipment and other information of the boiler factory, and can further understand the service quality of the boiler manufacturer.

Standardization management

There are many standards for the production workshop of the boiler factory, including operation and quality standards, 6S and safety standards, operation and maintenance standards, process and rework standards, safety stock standards, and so on. By observing the same operation process implemented by different employees carefully, you can tell the differences in the sequence of actions, the intensity of operations, whether there are omissions, and so on. The differences indicate that employees lack standardized operation training, which can greatly increase the possibility of product variation.

Equipment operating condition

In a good boiler factory, equipment should be clean and well-maintained, and the equipment-related information should be clear and updated in time. There is a card attached to the side of each machine to record the equipment type, procurement date, price, supplier, repair and maintenance records, and so on. In addition, the daily checklist should also be complete which records the hidden dangers discovered by the operator, as well as the equipment department’s signature and handling plan. All of these show the good system of equipment management and maintenance.

Employee working condition

At the site, you can first see the mental outlook of employees directly. When walking around the workshop, you can pay attention whether some employees are busy while some others are at leisure. For example, when the machine works automatically, the worker is doing nothing nearby for a long time; or in some workstations, the worker is waiting for materials for a long time. This phenomenon indicates that the factory lacks lean management and personnel utilization rate is low. The idle employees can also affect the working atmosphere of other people, which can lead to the low overall working efficiency and high cost.

Quality test

On-site observation should focus on the traceability of products and semi-finished products. This part of work can be easily observed. In a good boiler factory, each boiler component has a card or a document to follow the circulation, indicating the source, personnel who handles the processing, equipment used and other information. Any problem found in any process can be easily traced back to the source, which is easy to improve the work.

Production delivery capacity

Production delivery capacity and standard delivery time is a good indicator to measure the production level of a boiler manufacturer. In the fierce market competition, the shortening of boiler delivery time decides whether the company can make a profit or even survive. Boiler is a kind of large-scale mechanical equipment with a long production cycle. The delivery cycle of ZOZEN is at the leading position in the industry. ZOZEN promises that boilers below 20 tph are delivered within 20 days, and boilers above 20 tph are delivered within 35 days.

Finished product stock and logistics service

During the visit, you can observe whether the finished and semi-finished products stacked in the warehouse of the boiler factory are laid in an orderly way according to the classification and specification, and whether the materials and hot-selling boiler types are adequately stocked.
