Thoughts on Development Trend of Automobile Engine Manufacturing


Facing the gap between China's engine core technology and foreign countries, experts suggest that we should proceed from the following four points: First, national policy support; second, concept change; third, talent training; fourth, accurate positioning of enterprises and strict management system; The company's ability to innovate.


The changes in the automobile industry landscape in the future have become the focus of attention. The United States puts forward the "Industrial Internet" strategy and builds the country's new competitive advantages in deep integration of information network technology and manufacturing; Germany proposes the "Industry 4.0" strategy and promotes smart manufacturing and smart factories; India launched the "Made in India" strategic plan in September 2014 , announced a series of major policies to attract foreign investment, intent to build a new generation of world manufacturing plants.

Recalling the first three industrial revolutions, due to various historical reasons, China did not participate in the first three industrial revolutions, and the Industry 4.0 revolution is the fourth revolution led by intelligent manufacturing that is the Internet of things and manufacturing service. "Made in China 2025" takes the deep integration of informatization and industrialization as the main line and participated in the fourth revolution. Although new problems and new challenges are constantly emerging, new thinking and new models are also trying to subvert, but the Chinese auto industry is actually in the best era. On the one hand, China is the world’s largest auto market; on the other, it is led by Asia. The clean energy revolution, clean energy and the Internet have provided new opportunities for the development of the automotive industry. China's manufacturing industry faces the double challenges of "engagement" between developed countries and other emerging economies. The new round of scientific and technological revolutions and industrial changes are forming a convergence with China’s accelerated transformation of economic development patterns, and the new pattern of international division of labor is reshaping. Especially with the constant emergence of various new technologies, profound changes have also taken place within the manufacturing industry.

At present, China’s foreign technology dependence is on average more than 50%, compared with 30% for general industrial countries, and 5% for the United States and Japan. This is due to the lack of innovation capacity and the difficulty in transforming scientific and technological achievements into realistic productivity. As a result, the self-sufficiency rate of our core technologies and key technologies is low. On the one hand, the intensity of R&D investment is significantly lower than that of innovative countries. At the same time, there are problems with scattered and closed science and technology innovation activities in various fields, departments, and fields, and the lack of a unified database. On the other hand, for many years, our country has been There are inefficient transformations of scientific and technological achievements into real productivity. There are many institutional and technological barriers in the science and technology innovation chain. The links between production, study and research, and innovation and transformation are not close enough. Due to the lack of core technologies, many high-end products cannot be independently guaranteed and rely heavily on imports. More than 20 million cars are produced each year, but the engines are basically joint ventures. Many of the components are foreign technologies. We have a long way to go to change these.

Faced with the gap in the core technology of the engine, we must narrow the gap and change the status quo. I think there are four key aspects: First, the support of the state policy; Second, the concept of change; Third, personnel training; Fourth, the company's accurate positioning, strict management system, improve the company's ability to innovate.

The tilt of the national policy can also mobilize the enthusiasm of enterprises. The development of China's automobile industry is truly powerful, and independent innovation is the only road. The state must formulate industrial policies that are conducive to independent innovation and the development of independent brands, not just a single industrial policy. The relevant government departments form an investigation team to conduct a thorough investigation on the status quo and existing problems of China's auto industry, find out the key to solving the problem, and issue authoritative guidance and effective policies and measures. Learn from the laws and regulations for the protection of national automobile brands in various countries, formulate binding and protective government procurement regulations, and clearly stipulate the procurement rules for self-owned brands. In the process of participating in the new round of industrial revolution, China must also base itself on giving full play to its existing advantages. There are many fields involving the smart industry, and an innovation model called multi-industry alliance should be established under the guidance of the government department.

As manufacturers, they must first change their concepts and become impetuous. From the perspective of technological development, imitation is inevitable and the best way to learn effectively. Japan is not only automotive technology, but also heavy industry is the latecomers to the top, through reverse engineering, is to use the United States, Germany's engine, chassis, anatomy, absorption and digestion to produce Japan's own car engine.

The Korean auto industry has a very similar development path with Japan. When other companies are in joint ventures and cooperation, they have opened up their immediate rewards and devoted themselves to R&D. Of course, this also requires the reverse engineering of European and American countries’ automotive technologies to absorb and learn from each other’s advanced achievements while developing and improving. Adapt to the technologies and achievements of the local market. Germany's industrial development was not as good as Britain and France at the initial stage. It imported complete sets of foreign new equipment; sent personnel to learn advanced foreign technologies; hired foreign technicians; set up factories for foreign companies; and implemented a strict scientific management system; German universities and colleges were factories. The company has trained a large number of scientists, engineers and other senior staff members. Primary and secondary education has trained a large number of technical and skilled workers for the company. Only by changing concepts and researching can we narrow the gap. Sincerely hope that through the pursuit of practical efforts, the engine's independent research and development capabilities will rapidly increase.

We also need to study Germany in our country, pay attention to the training of follow-up talents, and set up technical schools to train engine R&D talents and skilled technical workers. The formation of high-end talent groups is the prerequisite and foundation for our innovation and development. We must attach great importance to the introduction of talents and personnel training. We must provide them with all the conditions we can provide to enable them to release as much intelligence and wisdom as possible and transform their research results into new advantages in economic development as soon as possible. It is necessary to start from the aspects of concepts, investment, and systems, establish a flexible and diverse vocational training learning system, improve the level of training of skilled personnel in vocational and technical colleges, and create incentives for innovation.

The development of engine companies is a close combination of the company's strategic positioning, accurate positioning of market research, and business models. How to use innovative means to make products stand out in the market is a top priority for corporate thinking. In 2012, Harbin Dong'an Automotive Power Co., Ltd. was affected by the adjustment of the domestic automobile market environment and industrial structure. The sales volume of the company's main vehicle manufacturers fell sharply, and the engine output decreased year by year. The company's marketing department conducted an accurate investigation and research aimed at the fourth stage fuel consumption and national V emission regulations. , Formulate engine production policies for fuel consumption and emissions, and actively promoted to the vehicle manufacturer to provide powertrain solutions. The R&D center plans dual VVT, booster, direct injection and new energy engine platforms, laying the foundation for the company's DAM series products to reach the market. . Formulate a vehicle-grading project grading plan, and conduct comprehensive scans on sedan cars, MPVs, micro-subsidiaries, light trucks, and micro-cargoes, and combine the customer's entire vehicle status quo and product planning to form a “one plant, one policy” promotion plan. The engine projects of more than ten new car manufacturers such as Beiqi Foton, Beiqi, Chery Automobile and Fujian New Longma. In 2014, it effectively increased the market share of DAM series engine products. The company also seized the opportunity to change the diesel to steam market. With the tightening of the country's emissions, the company's marketing department aimed at the opportunities for the replacement of gasoline engines for diesel engines of commercial vehicle companies, and seized the market for light diesel trucks and micro-cards. The PT model cooperating with Foton Zhucheng Ao Ling, a light truck leader, will carry out the vehicle calibration and durability assessment test on the DAM15R engine. Into the field of new automotive energy, and the Beijing New Energy Company launched the Saab electric vehicle equipped with the M10 Ranger project, and successfully selected the National Science and Technology Support Project of the Ministry of Science and Technology. The project will effectively promote the company's follow-up new energy market development. Three years of sword-sharpening has finally gained. In 2015, the company's output increased substantially.

As an accessory industry of automobile enterprises, engine companies must adapt to the needs of reform and development of automobile enterprises, strengthen R&D and innovation, establish a firm foothold in the fierce market competition, and create a brand that is well-known.
