The textile workshop of Alashankou Zhende Medical Textile Co., Ltd., located in the Alashankou Comprehensive Bonded Zone, has a legendary existence in the local area – not only two employees were awarded the “Autonomous Region Model Worker” the year before last and the year before last. The title of NationalTextile IndustryModel Worker” has also been awarded as the “March 8th Red Flag Bearer” of Alashankou City, the “Advanced Grassroots Party Organization” of Alashankou City, and the “Model Workers’ Home” of the autonomous region ”, the Autonomous Region Federation of Trade Unions’ Certificate of Development and Construction of Xinjiang and other honorary titles.
In April this year, Zhende Textile Workshop received another good news and won the title of “National Worker Pioneer”.
How is “Legend” developed? On April 25, the reporter walked into Alashankou Zhende Medical Textile Co., Ltd. to explore the reason.
That afternoon, in the textile workshop, huge automated textile machines were operating in an orderly manner. The workers only needed to arrange the bags of white cotton under the machine in an orderly manner, and the thin and long cotton slivers The cotton sliver is continuously “spit out” by the machine, and finally the cotton sliver is spit out evenly on the automatic spinning machine and is continuously wound into bobbins. “The workshop is more than 10,000 square meters. Although the area is small, the output value is very high.” Qin Songxiang, the person in charge of the company, told reporters pointing to the non-stop running machines. “Twenty-four hours of uninterrupted automated machine operation ensures the company’s daily tasks. Quantity.”
Due to the epidemic in August last year, Alashankou City implemented closed control, and all enterprises within its jurisdiction were closed for production. The products of Zhende Textile Company belong to the forefront of the medical supplies industry chain. However, the company’s suspension of operations and lack of supply directly caused downstream companies to wait for rice to be served, which to a certain extent affected the development of some medical and health undertakings. healthy growth.
To start work or not to start work? Zhende Textile Company was once in a dilemma. “When we start work, we can’t guarantee the staff, and even eating is a problem.” Qin Songxiang recalled that the company had been suspended for a month due to the epidemic, and most of the employees had gone home, and no employees were with the company. Failure to resume operations will not only cause factories downstream in the industrial chain to be unable to produce, but will also affect the normal supply of medical products.
In critical moments, make prompt decisions and put the overall situation first. Under the leadership of General Manager Tang Zhongming, Zhende Textile Company overcame various difficulties and began to resume work and production. At the beginning, there were only about 20 employees available, which was one-third of the usual number. “Although there were few people, everyone obeyed the workshop arrangements in an orderly manner and started all the machines on the same day.” Qin Songxiang said, “At that time, the company’s electricians, mechanics, test workers, warehouse managers and office department managers and managers Everyone went to the production workshop to cover their shifts, and the employees showed their dedication.”
In addition to overcoming various production difficulties, we also have to take into account epidemic prevention tasks. Employees at work cannot go home, so they treat the company as their own and directly build floors in the factory. The machines run 24 hours a day and night, and although the labor force is small, they work in shifts in an orderly manner. The output has been maintained at the original status, satisfying the supply of goods for downstream factories. As people continued to enter the area, equipment maintenance was carried out normally. In the end, two-thirds of the normal number of employees had to continue until the mountain pass was unblocked.
Qin Songxiang said frankly that the reason why everyone was able to ensure normal production was not only because everyone worked together to overcome difficulties, but also because of the company’s technical breakthroughs.
Previously, due to the differences in cotton fibers in different countries, the company’s production efficiency was unstable, so the textile workshop set up a technical research team to conduct research on the fiber properties of Uzbek cotton, Kazakhstan cotton, Tajikistan cotton, American cotton, Australian cotton, and Brazilian cotton. Through process testing and continuous research, production efficiency has been greatly improved.
Zhende Textile Company is still exploring experience in the production environment. After technological transformation, it has realized waste heat recovery and utilization, greatly saving energy use, and formed “Zhende Experience”.
Qin Songxiang said, “Through research, we have determined the ambient temperature that is suitable for our spinning production requirements. Alashankou is known as the ‘wind outlet’. There is a large temperature difference between winter and summer here. Therefore, we want the textile equipment to maintain normal operation in the cold winter, so that the workshop can Maintaining a suitable temperature for spinning is an urgent problem to be solved.”
At that time, the Alashankou Comprehensive Bonded Area Management Committee helped the company install a temporary boiler in the winter of 2016 to supply steam to two spinning mills in the Comprehensive Bonded Area to solve the company’s heating problem, at a cost of over one million. In 2017, the Comprehensive Bonded Area Management Committee decided to build two 1.5-ton electric boilers (including supporting facilities), requiring an investment of nearly 10 million yuan. It was estimated that the monthly electricity bill for the two electric boilers would be hundreds of thousands of yuan, plus the boiler workers’ Staff wages are unaffordable for companies. Through exploration, drawings and related information, Qin Songxiang successfully came to the conclusion that the heat generated during the operation of the equipment can be recovered and used for workshop heating. The company invested more than 100,000 yuan, with almost negligible operating costs, and obtained the approval of the management committee.
Energy recycling is not only a technological innovation, but also a model for enterprises to energy conservation and emission reduction. This technology has also been used by companies in the Alashankou Comprehensive Bonded Zone.��Other companies have followed suit, and the Comprehensive Bonded Zone Management Committee has also saved nearly 10 million yuan in investment. In 2020, Qin Songxiang was awarded the Autonomous Region Model Worker.
What motivates the employees of Zhende Textile Company to continuously explore so many unusual technologies at work? “We not only focus on production, but also on corporate culture and employee growth.” Qin Songxiang gave the answer.
In order to enable new employees to become proficient in equipment operation techniques as soon as possible, Zhende Textile Workshop carefully organized and arranged for old employees to conduct training for new employees to help employees grow. “In order to allow trainees to get on the bus early and start work early, during the training process, the experience is imparted to new trainees without reservation, ranging from how to walk the tour route to handling a stop at the station.” Qin Songxiang said, the textile workshop carried out Various forms of labor competitions, such as “QualityPacemaker”, “Female Operator Expert”, “Excellent Employee”, etc., “stimulate the inner motivation of cadres and employees and create a sense of being an expert” , a strong atmosphere of being a master. Currently, 12 employees in the workshop have been awarded the title of ‘Outstanding Employees’ of the group.”
“This is how I grew up!” Liu Yuxin, leader of the electrical equipment team, told reporters excitedly. He joined the company as an ordinary electrician in 2016 and has now become the leader of the electrical equipment team. Last year, he also won the honorary title of “National Textile Industry Model Worker”.
After work, in order to relieve employees’ stress and relax their mood, Zhende Textile Company actively carries out “one-on-one” heart-to-heart talks, karaoke in conference rooms, card competitions, self-haircuts and other amateur activities for employees. “After continuously and effectively providing care and concern to employees, the entire team is full of positive energy.” Qin Songxiang said.
In the days to come, Qin Songxiang told reporters that under the leadership of the general manager, all employees will work together, practice hard, pioneer and innovate, and jointly “weave” a more exciting life and make due contributions to the high-quality economic development of Alashankou contribution.
