Break through the technological barrier

             The picture shows Ma Xingbao, chairman and chief engineer of Jiangsu Tianma General Equipment Co., Ltd

      At the age of 50, he "went to the sea". At the age of 73, he still worked more than ten hours a day. Through independent innovation, he broke through the key core technology in the field of lighting equipment and owned a series of invention patents in the leading industry, creating a legend... This is Ma Xingbao, an innovative tycoon who regards technology as life and the legal representative and chief designer of Jiangsu Tianma General Equipment Co., Ltd.

      There was once a thought-provoking saying in Chinese business circles: "innovation is seeking death, and failure to innovate is waiting for death." Indeed, for enterprises, especially science and technology-based enterprises, innovation is the only way to go in the face of technical barriers, industrial competition and various environmental conditions. However, whether the end of innovation is the end of the mountain or the willow, it depends on opportunities and skills!

      Ma Xingbao led Jiangsu Tianma to win the position and brand in the field of stainless steel (aluminum) deep processing machinery surface finishing equipment manufacturing in China and even the world, which is the result of insisting on "technology is king". The secret of Jiangsu Tianma's success is that they do not believe in authority, do not follow the trend, and dare to bite the "hard bone". With their courage and toughness, they have created a flat (roll) plate oil grinding and wire drawing production line, a direct connection 8K mirror grinding machine, a texturing machine, a sb machine and other technical achievements that reach or exceed the world level, filling the gap in the industry. In addition, relevant cutting-edge technologies and products adhere to the concept of environmental protection, adding more color to green manufacturing.

      "We have always been very confident and confident, because we have the backbone team's enterprising spirit of taking the enterprise as the home and striving to be strong, the full support of the local Party committee and government of Wuxi City, and the support of banks. For us, as long as we grasp the 'trump card' of core technology, we will never worry about the market and development prospects." Ma Xingbao said, "we aim to become a national enterprise with international competitiveness and let the world love Chinese creation."

      Among a series of well-known scientific and technological products in Jiangsu Tianma, the breakthrough of acid free 8K mirror machine has the industry wind vane significance. It is understood that the international stainless steel deep processing surface finishing equipment, such as the oil grinding and wire drawing plate production line and 8K mirror grinding machine, which are sold for tens of millions of yuan, have been manufactured in Italy, the Netherlands and other countries as early as decades ago. However, the processing technology has been used to this day, especially the processing method of 8K mirror grinding fluid using nitric acid and other corrosive agents that seriously pollute the environment as auxiliary materials has not changed so far.

      Relevant resources show that nitric acid is a transparent colorless or yellowish corrosive liquid with unique asphyxiating odor, which is one of the six strong acids with strong oxidizing and corrosive properties. It decomposes into pungent nitrogen dioxide when encountering water, moisture or heat. It can corrode various metals and materials, which greatly shortens the service life of the plant (especially the steel structure) and equipment, and increases the investment and production cost. In addition, nitric acid liquid and nitric acid vapor have strong irritating and corrosive effects on human skin and mucosa. The 8K mirror panel processed and ground with nitric acid as an auxiliary agent is widely used in families and luxury and high-end public places. The residue of nitric acid on the substrate will become a "hidden killer" that pollutes the environment and endangers the human body.

      However, the steel template, stainless steel template, hot press template, stainless steel hot rolled plate (decorative sheet), aluminum plate (decorative sheet) produced and processed by this traditional technology and process are widely used in leather, paper, floor, furniture, medicine, elevator, construction, textile, aviation, high-speed rail and other industries, and are indispensable "hard supports" for the industry.

      On the one hand, it is the cost of environmental protection, and on the other hand, it is the dependence of the industry. How can we balance and solve the situation? China adheres to the principle that "economic development must not be at the expense of environmental pollution" and "green water and green mountains are golden mountains and silver mountains", and vigorously rectifies polluting industries. It is understood that up to now, only the Foshan area of Guangdong has ordered to close hundreds of enterprises engaged in 8K mirror panel processing. Beijing is even stricter, and explicitly prohibits the retention of acid related enterprises. In this way, enterprises engaged in 8K mirror panel processing or tearfully adjust the production structure, or go to cities with weak acid prohibition measures to fight "guerrillas", or attempt to invest in expensive sewage treatment systems... However, such short-sightedness and short sightedness are not conducive to enterprise development and environmental needs.

      In Ma Xingbao's view, "the brave will win if they meet on a narrow road. There is no escape. Only reform and innovation are the way out, the way to live and the right way." In the face of this worldwide problem, Ma Xingbao overcame various criticisms from experts and scholars from all over the world that "acid free grinding 8K is simply a Arabian Nights". He led a six person research team composed of Qiu Dejun, Xue Peiliang, Chen Rongxiu, Ma Zeyu, Li Yakai and Zhang Qi from the design Center reviewed and recognized by Wuxi science and Technology Bureau to discuss how to implement the green development concept The application technology of acid free 8K mirror machine was developed as a new project of Tianma.

      After investing a large amount of human, material and financial resources, and after six years of repeated tests and continuous technological development and technological transformation, the new technology, new process and new products with great market value unprecedented in the field of international stainless steel (aluminum) deep processing machinery surface finishing equipment manufacturing industry have finally been born. They are acid-free, zero emission, green and environmental protection 8K mirror grinder with national invention patents and utility model patents. This is another milestone in the field of environmental protection and governance in China and another vivid example of "made in China".

      What is striking is that the consumption of acid free grinding auxiliary materials of the 8K mirror grinder is lower than that of the acid processing process. The gloss of the plate surface produced and processed by the 8K mirror grinder is tested to be more than 620, and the roughness of the plate surface is tested to be less than 0.02 μ m, while the gloss of the plate surface produced and processed by the acid is only 550-615, and the roughness of the plate surface is only less than 0.04 μ M. It is not difficult to see that the acid free 8K mirror machine can produce and process the effect that the acid free 8K mirror machine cannot carry out or achieve without using any auxiliary measures due to the application of new technologies and processes.

      This revolutionary initiative and world-wide breakthrough opened a new chapter in the history of stainless steel deep processing. Jiangsu Tianma has made new contributions to the development and revitalization of national industry, presented generous gifts for the 40th anniversary of China's reform and opening up and the 70th anniversary of the founding of new China, and has been widely praised in all circles of society.

      It is worth mentioning that Ma Xingbao has worked in the army for many years. From a military cadre to an enterprise boss, what has changed is his career and identity, and what has not changed is his passion and dream. "Technology control", "workaholic" and "teacher Ma" are his labels in everyone's eyes, which also reflect his dedication to research.

      "Only reformers can advance, only innovators can be strong, and only reform innovators can win." At the moment when China has entered the deep-water reform zone and various industries have strengthened the supply side structural reform, Ma Xingbao's "ice breaking" action led by Jiangsu Tianma has leading significance and responsibility spirit, and has also cast the quality and soul of enterprises and entrepreneurs in the new era.
