Nanjing 7425’s new assembly plant No 3 was officially put into production on August 6, with the first batch of 800 flexible brake hoses coming off its enclosed constant-temperature dust-proof hydraulic continuous production line.
Construction of the assembly plant began in Feb this year with a total investment of 4 million yuan ($653,800). It covers an area of 1,500 square meters and was put into trial run in early Aug after half a year of infrastructure construction, equipment installation and debugging.
The plant integrates the most advanced designs for a hose assembly manufacturing line, featuring a compact and efficient overall layout. It applies process visual management and ensures no product parking during the transfer process, which greatly improves production efficiency. Its products will mainly go to Dongfeng Peugeot Citroen Automobile, Guangqi Honda, Dongfeng Honda, Dongfeng Nissan and SGM. After going into production, the plant will realize a capacity of 3 million hoses per year, with output value of 45 million yuan and profit of 6 million yuan.
