As a key vehicle manufacturing base of China National Heavy Duty Truck Group (CNHTC), Jinan Truck Manufacturing Company actively responded to the CNHTC Group's call to increase production and ensure supply, going all out to guarantee the production and delivery of the Howo series products. All employees are dedicated to the production of Howo models with a spirit of "never slacking off, always at the forefront, and always striving for first place," working day and night, racing against time to accelerate progress and ensure delivery, providing solid support for CNHTC Group to achieve its annual production and sales targets with a high sense of responsibility and mission.
Five Production Lines Working Together, Flexible Production Improves Efficiency
Jinan Truck Manufacturing Company fully leverages its multi-production line advantages, comprehensively implementing a flexible production strategy, focusing on ensuring increased production capacity for the Howo series products. Faced with diversified market demands, the company utilizes a digital system to dynamically adjust the production pace of Howo models at each production base. The Laiwu plant's dual production lines, the Dangjiazhuang plant, the Mianyang branch, and the trial production department—five major production lines—collaborate and flexibly allocate resources to ensure that Howo products are prioritized for production and rolled off the line quickly.
The Laiwu plant's Howo production line utilizes advanced EMS and BOM systems, setting precise assembly parameters for different Howo model configurations to achieve automatic vehicle identification and intelligent material distribution. The Dangjiazhuang plant has implemented modular battery assembly for Howo new energy heavy trucks, significantly improving assembly efficiency and precision. The Mianyang branch, based on regional market demand, optimized Howo model production scheduling and logistics routes, achieving rapid localized response. The trial production department strengthened the verification process for new Howo models, shortening the cycle from vehicle inspection to mass production.
Each production line monitors the production capacity and quality indicators of Howo models in real time through a shared data platform. With a mindset of maximizing every second, all employees achieved a new high of 717 Howo series vehicles produced per shift per day, fully demonstrating the strong market competitiveness of the Howo brand.
Precise Measures, Quality Improvement, and Efficiency Enhancement Through Standardized Operations
Entering the fourth quarter, Jinan Truck Manufacturing Company closely followed the quality improvement requirements for the Howo series products, focusing on key production links and strengthening quality control through standardized operations. The company has refined the process standards for Howo models, standardized employee operations, and improved the quality traceability system to ensure that every Howo product meets premium standards.
The Dangjiazhuang plant, in conjunction with the "quality gate" control mechanism, has increased the intensity of full inspection at key stages of Howo models. Relying on advanced testing and torque data acquisition systems, it conducts full monitoring of key assembly processes for the Howo series. Based on the innovation studio, it continues to focus on optimizing Howo model assembly processes and improving equipment utilization efficiency. In October, it launched a special improvement campaign targeting processes such as the lifting cab and bumper assembly for Howo models, providing strong impetus for the high-quality and stable production of the Howo series.
Focusing on the front line, addressing problems and stabilizing resources as needed
Faced with the dual pressures of Howo model production and efficiency, Jinan Truck Manufacturing Company resolutely implements the work orientation of "focusing on the front line and growing on the front line," strengthening resource collaboration. Various functional departments have gone down to the front line to conduct special investigations on problems such as production rhythm, material distribution, and equipment maintenance for Howo models, establishing a "real-time response to front-line needs" mechanism.
The company implements a "problem list + responsibility matrix" management model, prioritizing the production needs of the Howo series. It strengthens personnel skills training, especially the assembly skills of new Howo models. The company optimizes the logistics and warehousing layout for Howo models, strengthens logistical support, and allows employees to dedicate themselves to the production of Howo products with greater enthusiasm.
Strictly adhering to safety, ensuring stable production and supply, and promoting delivery.
Safe production is the foundation for the stable production and supply of Howo series products. Jinan Truck Manufacturing Company fully implements the safety production responsibility system, builds a safety prevention and control system, and strengthens risk management throughout the entire chain to ensure the smooth production of Howo models.
To ensure the delivery efficiency of Howo models, the company established a special research team to optimize the delivery process, identify bottlenecks in vehicle pickup routes, paperwork, and vehicle inspection, and launched a "one-stop" delivery service for Howo models, allowing customers to pick up their vehicles immediately upon arrival at the factory, fully demonstrating the Howo brand's customer-centric service philosophy.
Jinan Truck Manufacturing Company will resolutely implement the strategic deployment of Sinotruk Group with the spirit of "emphasizing morality, craftsmanship, and action", and take practical actions to help increase the production capacity of Howo series products, continuously optimize the production organization efficiency of Howo models, strengthen the market competitiveness of Howo brand, lay a solid foundation for the completion of Sinotruk Group's annual target tasks, and make new and greater contributions to the high-quality development of Howo brand!
