Xuchang County, which has successfully built the country's largest processing base for hair products, soy products and children's shoes, has now locked in another ambitious goal—building China’s largest auto parts base.
One of Xuchang County's actions to implement this magnificent plan is to help the superior and to make great efforts to cultivate the leading enterprises, make full use of them to promote and radiate their roles, and form enterprise clusters; another action is to attract investment and attract a group of brands. Rapidly-arranged auto parts companies with strong market competitiveness have rapidly settled, and have taken solid steps in expanding the total number of companies and improving their quality.
The Xuchang Automobile Driveshaft Factory, an old state-owned enterprise established in 1954, is the first automobile driveshaft manufacturing base established by the State Bureau of Machinery Industry. In 2003, it was named one of China's top 500 machinery enterprises and top 50 auto parts enterprises. Xu Chuan Plant was officially reorganized into Xuchang Far East Automotive Driveshaft Co., Ltd. on June 16 this year. Today, the company can produce light, heavy, medium and special automotive transmission shafts and construction machinery, steel rolling machinery, internal combustion machinery, marine machinery transmission shaft more than 40 series, more than 4000 varieties, annual production capacity of 1.2 million sets. After the reform, Xu Chuan issued a stronger dynamism, which further laid the foundation for the country's industry with the largest production scale, the most complete varieties, and the strongest adaptability.
Built in 1995, Xuchang Wanxiang Qianchao Co., Ltd. has a total asset of 30 million yuan. It produces 2 million sets of universal joints, cross shafts and differential cross shafts annually. On May 24 of this year, Hangzhou Wanxiang Qianchao Group Company and Xuchang County People's Government signed an investment agreement and decided to invest an additional 120 million yuan within three years. By 2010, the company's production capacity can reach 30 million sets, accounting for 35% of the total market share of the joint sales in China.
Driven by the “Far East†and “Wanxiang†money tides, the automobile parts and components companies in Shangji Town, the county, have a total of 32 driveshaft assemblies, universal cross shaft assemblies, accessories, and precision school enterprises. National transmission shaft production, sales, fine school distribution center.
At the same time, in the county town of Jiang Liji, a group of windshield glass processing companies led by Xubo Automobile Glass Plant of Xubo Group was formed, with 18 modern windshield production lines, and windshields were processed and processed annually. With a capacity of 3 million square meters, the market share has steadily accounted for 40% of the domestic market, and it has become the automotive glass processing base in the five provinces in South China.
Up to now, the county's auto spare parts enterprises have grown to 38, with total assets of 420 million yuan. In 2003, the industrial added value was 272 million yuan, sales income was 840 million yuan, and profits and taxes were 110 million yuan.
A Century of Good Ideas
For over a century, automobiles have been equipped with one or more windshield wipers. The earliest was a hand operated unit: handle on the inside of the windshield, brush on the outside, with a connector passed through the frame. Soon after, the rubber squeegee replaced the brush. Today we have computerized mechanisms that sense rain, start their process automatically, and clear windshields continuously unassisted, intermittently as chosen, or automatically as needed.
Changes in Weather, Changes in Composition
Progressive change in the design, manufacturing, and production of windshield wipers and wiper systems have been largely uniform, due to standardized changes in technology and little change in the basic elements of weather. Industrialization has released acids into the atmosphere that weren`t there in vast numbers 100 years ago, but synthetic rubber, the use of stainless steel, and galvanizing processes, by and large, have worked well to fend off a significant impact on everyday reliability with only a fair share of incremental cost to the consumer. Still, though, windshield wiper arms and assemblies are not indestructible. By today`s standards a windshield wiper system will be in operation for about 12 years. Consumers will still find a need for after-market arms and assemblies during that period due to mechanical wear and prolonged exposure to the elements.
Electronic Mechanisms, Less Common for Problems
Switches, modules, circuit boards, and motors are the more expensive elements of the windshield wiper system. They fair better, in longevity, than arms, assemblies, and windshield wiper blades- more along the 12 years durability of the vehicles themselves. First off they are shielded from the elements of whether, and don`t require regular maintenance or human physical contact. Secondly, with the exception of motors or actuators, they don`t physically move, but rather passively handle the passage of low voltage electrons. If a motor does fail, more than likely the failure will not be a hardwire issue, but rather something that will signal a need for attention with noise, such as a worn bearing or damaged spline.
Natural and Synthetic Rubber
Since the outbreak of World War I (1914) the demand for rubber products has been instrumental in the growth of industrialization. Shortages due to geopolitical changes in South America and Asia spurred the need for synthetic rubber. By 1943, two years after the start of WWII, petroleum based synthetic rubber surpassed the supply of natural rubber. Windshield wiper blades followed suit, but despite advancements, synthetic or natural, rubber windshield wiper blades continue to succumb to elements of acid rain, fluctuating temperature, and constant friction.
Most Common Windshield Wiper Problems
Dirt, grease, and grime are among the most common problems associated with wiper blades. The good news is, dirt, grease, and grime can be removed by frequent cleaning with alcohol wipes or soap and water. A small amount of petroleum jelly will replenish the natural oils lost under normal conditions. If you don`t expect the blades to do the work of an ice scraper, your blades will surprise you with their longevity, barring unexpected injury do to road hazards and abuse. Make sure to physically remove ice and frozen grime from your windshield and wiper blades prior to running the windshield wipers.
When your wipers leave fine streaks and lines on your windshield, and cleaning the blades has no effect, or when your wipers become noisy as they move across the windshield- check for damage such as rips, bends, and brittleness. If you find the blades are damaged, replace them with refills when available or assemblies from your local automotive retailer.
If the wipers appear to jump along the windshield at high speeds or leave large streaks on your windshield under every day conditions, pull the Windshield Wiper Arm back and inspect the springs and linkage. Sometimes their function can be restored with a lubricant. If not, then, replace the arm or assembly as needed with any one of the fine replacements found in your local retailer. Some retailers will install blades, assemblies, and arms free with your purchase.
