China's Internal Combustion Engine Manufacturing Scale Still Needs Policy Support

After the development in recent years, China's internal combustion engine industry has formed a certain remanufacturing production capacity, and remanufactured products have begun to be accepted by some users. According to incomplete statistics, China's remanufactured internal combustion engine production has so far produced more than 100,000 units. Take the example of several companies visited by the author when he participated in the research activities of internal combustion engine remanufacturing enterprises. Sinotruk Jinan Fuqiang Remanufacturing has formed an annual capacity of 20,000 sets of complete machines and 120,000 sets of parts and components. Weichai again Production has formed an annual production capacity of 20,000 units. Wuxi Dahao and Yuchai Remanufacturing (Suzhou) all have an annual production capacity of 5,000 units. Shanghai Happy Ribeid will have the capacity to remanufacture 30,000 internal combustion engines and transmissions annually in 2015.

It can be said that the remanufacturing of internal combustion engines has formed a certain scale in China, which has contributed to a certain extent for the internal combustion engine industry's circular economy and sustainable development. However, if we look at the long-term goal of China's macroeconomic overall goals, energy conservation, emissions reduction and resource conservation, there is still considerable room for the development of the internal combustion engine remanufacturing industry. Related policies and standards need to be further improved.

The concept of remanufacturing has not yet been fully accepted by the society. In the context of the country's development plan for energy-saving and new-energy automotive industries, compared with new energy vehicles such as pure electric vehicles and hybrid vehicles that are also in the industrial incubation period, the remanufacturing of internal combustion engines has become even more With considerable realistic significance, people in the industry generally believe that they should be supported. In particular, the remanufacturing of internal combustion engines in the initial stage of industrial development, the relevant concepts have not been accepted by more people, and even some policy-making departments have not clarified the relationship between remanufacturing and major repair services, resulting in serious lags in related incentive policies. Therefore, compared with the mature developed markets, the industrialization of China's internal combustion engine remanufacturing is struggling.

Due to the traditional old concepts and related lack of publicity, most internal combustion engine users lack the necessary understanding and understanding of the performance, efficiency, and after-sales service of remanufactured internal combustion engines, and related management departments have not yet established the remanufactured internal combustion engine products. The unified quality standards cause users to worry about using remanufactured products, and the degree of recognition is low. In addition, since the implementation of social vehicles for many years is a policy that the five major vehicles of scrapped vehicles can only be sold to local automobile dismantling companies, the recycling channels of internal-combustion engine remanufacturers are narrow, and many resources cannot be recycled promptly. Waste of social resources.

The main problems reflected by remanufacturing companies still come from the recycling and sales links. The formulation of relevant policies is the most concerned and expected by all companies. Many companies such as Shanghai Rebecca Ruibei proposed that they should re-establish regulations on the management of end-of-life vehicle recycling and other relevant regulations, and issue a catalogue of remanufactured products as soon as possible so that the internal combustion engine remanufacturing enterprises can have a clear objective and target.

In fact, since many remanufactured original components are in the category of used products, there is no remanufacturing of this industry in the national related product business. At present, almost all remanufactured old parts cannot be issued with VAT invoices for the corresponding taxes. Deductions have already affected the economic benefits of remanufactured companies to a large extent. At the same time, due to the relevant national laws and regulations that remanufactured internal combustion engines can not be used for new products, enterprises have also encountered difficulties in the replacement and use of “three-packet machines”.

In some enterprises’ old recycling machines and old storage areas, some old machines and old parts are stored in the open air or covered by a simple canopy. When it encounters wind and windy weather, it will definitely cause re-contamination of the environment. The secondary pollution problem in the manufacturing industry chain should also be highly valued by relevant companies.

It is imperative to improve laws and regulations to broaden marketing channels. “We give bright sunshine.” Ms. Ge Hong, deputy secretary-general of the China Internal Combustion Engine Industry Association and in charge of internal combustion engine remanufacturing affairs, spoke plainly on behalf of related companies. This simple sentence of hers also reflects, to some extent, the circumstances in which companies involved in the remanufacturing of internal combustion engines struggle alone without corresponding policy support.

During the visit, it was learned that due to the large number of correspondences between high-volume internal combustion engine remanufactured products and their newly manufactured products, the current overall internal combustion engine remanufacturing enterprises in the industry are mainly based on the remanufacturing of their own products. Most companies Production and sales are still small. However, relevant responsible persons for companies such as Weichai Remanufacturing and Jinan Fuqiang indicated that the remanufacturing market has great potential. Although companies that are currently put into production are almost all in a state of insufficient food, all companies must have an open mind and work together. China's internal combustion engine remanufacturing industry is doing.

With the participation of the China Internal Combustion Engine Industry Association, the Shanghai Institute of Internal Combustion Engines and related companies participated in the preparation of the industry-related standards, which have been put on the agenda. The contents include the national standards for remanufactured general-purpose internal combustion engines and the general technical conditions of the major components. , and the remanufactured internal combustion engine parts and components dismantling technical specifications, classification technical specifications, cleaning technical specifications, assembly technical specifications and internal combustion engine and component remanufacturing process pollution control specification.

During the survey, Xing Min, executive vice chairman and secretary-general of the China Internal Combustion Engine Industry Association, said in an interview with the author that the internal combustion engine remanufacturing enterprises should proceed from the perspective of changing the production mode, adjusting the industrial structure and adjusting the growth model, and integrating the policies. All the resources within do a good job of each company's own work. He also pointed out that opening up the market is the key to the survival of remanufacturers. It is gratifying that, in the context of the relatively limited availability of domestic old machines and old recycling resources and channels, group customers based on public transportation, etc., have maintained good quality and quantity of old machines, and they have already had remanufactured products. With full awareness and acceptance, they have become the main force in the use of remanufactured internal combustion engine products.

Through visits to several major remanufacturing companies, most companies have already deployed networks in their new 4S shop channels. Among them, the Shanghai Automotive Co., Ltd. Shanghai Volkswagen, Shanghai General Motors and other brands of re-manufactured enterprises --- Shanghai happy Ruibei De, has begun to plan the SAIC Group's internal vehicle manufacturers have stopped production of the main after-sale maintenance parts Production business. At present, the industry, which is entirely based on the social market, is faced with difficulties in managing the remanufacturing industry. Positioning itself in high-end overhaul services and expanding the overall after-sale solutions for discontinued models is a realistic way to go.
