As an established local manufacturer in Jiangxi with 12 years of experience in the medical tire industry, the cooperating enterprise covers an area of approximately 8,000 square meters, owns 3 traditional production lines and employs 85 staff. Its core products include operating table casters and medical AGV wheels, supplying 86 second-class and above hospitals and 15 medical equipment manufacturers across the country with an annual output of about 120,000 tires. With the continuous upgrading of the medical industry’s requirements for product precision, cleanliness and compliance, coupled with the growing urgency of overseas market expansion, the original production model has been difficult to adapt to the market development rhythm, falling into the predicament of order loss and profit compression.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Targeting the core production pain points of a certain medical tire manufacturer in Jiangxi (hereinafter referred to as the “cooperating enterprise”), Haifeng Automation has tailored a full-chain transformation solution integrating “equipment upgrade + process optimization + quality control improvement + certification empowerment”. Focusing on the production innovation of polyurethane medical tires such as medical casters and AGV wheels, the project has promoted the cooperating enterprise to achieve a leapfrog transformation from “manual inefficiency and unstable quality” to “automated high efficiency, compliance and high-end” in just 6 months through the introduction of intelligent linked production lines, optimization of medical-grade material formulas, establishment of a full-process quality inspection system and assistance in compliance certification, successfully opening up channels for high-end medical markets at home and abroad.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Adopting the traditional process of manual mixing + single-mold casting, each tire takes 8-12 minutes to produce, with a daily output of only about 320 tires; changing production for multi-specification orders requires mold modification and manual formula adjustment, taking as long as 3-5 days. The order delivery cycle generally exceeds 20 days, and 3 European orders were forced to be cancelled due to delays in 2022.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Manual batching has large errors, resulting in tire hardness deviation of \u00b16A and a finished product qualification rate of only 82%, with annual rework losses exceeding 500,000 yuan; the production workshop is an ordinary factory building, and dust pollution causes the product surface to be easily contaminated with impurities. Moreover, it has poor resistance to 75% alcohol disinfection, and the surface layer falls off after repeated wiping, failing to meet the sterile requirements of hospitals; lacking international certifications such as FDA and CE, the expansion of overseas markets has been repeatedly hindered.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

During production, key process parameters of the casting machine such as rubber casting volume, casting speed, and casting pressure are not collected in real time, nor can they be managed and controlled in conjunction with parameters such as centrifuge speed and molding temperature. When parameters fluctuate, timely early warning and adjustment cannot be made. Moreover, there is a lack of a complete product data traceability system. Once quality problems such as substandard tire compactness and uneven wall thickness occur, it is difficult to accurately determine whether the problem lies in the casting link or the centrifugal link, resulting in low efficiency of quality rectification.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
