Chapter 640: Purchase of a machining center
Muyang is still in Japan, in fact, Japan's machining technology level is also very high, if you want to make a ranking, maybe Switzerland is the highest, Germany is not inferior to Switzerland's machining level, then the United States, and finally Japan.
China, on the other hand, is the largest purchaser of processing machinery.
As for the Japanese machining center Muyang will not be considered, in the real world he is in Germany, if you get a batch of Japanese machining centers, it will be very abrupt, just a few days later the European Machine Tool Expo (EMO) will be held in Hannover, Germany, Muyang is ready to go to this exhibition to Taobao.
Muyang left Japan and came to Hannover, Germany, and the exhibition was held in two days.
The European Machine Tool Expo is supported by the European Machine Tool Industry Cooperation Committee (CECIMO), held every two years, held in Hannover, Germany and Milan, Italy, in turn, the exhibition can be called one of the most authoritative and professional events in the world's machine tool and manufacturing technology industry, fully demonstrating the scientific research and innovation in the field of manufacturing equipment and technology in the world today, and has a pivotal leading position in the field of international metal processing.
On the opening day of the exhibition, Muyang came to the exhibition site, changed his identity, and became a middle-aged German man, watching the machinery and products related to machining in the crowd.
Cutting machines, grinding and milling machines, machines for sheet metal, wire and tube processing, metal forming machines, surface treatment technology, thin film processes, various software in the field of mechanical engineering. Control system, automation components, CAD/CAM quality management system. Robotics and automation systems, logistics and warehousing technology, industrial electronics, sensors and diagnostics, precision tools, diamond tools, gauges, metal forming tools, machinery and tool and mold making, rapid prototyping, models, system design. Instrumentation and control technology, coolants, lubricants, welding, cutting, quenching, heating. Mechanical, hydraulic, electrical manufacturing technology and electronic fittings and much more.
Muyang can be regarded as an eye-opener, after all, checking information on the Internet is shallow on paper. There are too many things, and Muyang can't see it, his purpose is a machining center. And it also needs to be produced in Germany. In this way, Muyang's goal is much smaller.
Finally, Muyang's eyes are aimed at three machining enterprises, German Gitmai Group DMG machine tool, German Rhodes machine tool and German Siemens machine tool three, the strength of these three is undoubted, absolutely are the leaders in the field of machining, no matter which one, are enough to meet the requirements of Muyang.
"I want to buy 10 DMG DMGCTXgamma2100 machining centers, but I don't know what the price is." Muyang asked the reception staff.
"Sir. DMGCTXgamma2100 type is a 2012 product, our company has the most advanced 2300 type. The ultra-high-speed all-round machining center with its own laser cutter and the new digital control program can definitely meet any of your needs. ”
"The price of each unit is 1.7 million euros, and our company will be responsible for giving you door-to-door installation and commissioning, as well as technical guidance, to achieve a full range of services, our aim is to make customers satisfied, where is your factory site, what kind of processing do you want to carry out."
The reception staff heard that Muyang wanted 10 sets, and they were very enthusiastic, but Muyang heard that it was a door-to-door installation and technical guidance, and his head was a little big, did he really want to build a factory?
"It's in Germany." Muyang Road.
When the other party heard that it was in Germany, his face was even happier, which was much simpler, and there would be no other regulations, such as export restrictions.
"However, I only want the DMGCTXgamma2100 model, not anything else." Muyang continued.
"Guest, although we are still producing DMGCTXgamma2100 machining center in small batches, but his processing capacity is not as good as that of the 2300 all-rounder, and the price gap is not large, I recommend you to consider the 2300 model." The receptionist persuaded.
In fact, Muyang has no way, the 2100 type is a product of DMG in 2012, and it is already the latest product that can be accepted by the real world, if you really get a bunch of machine tools produced in 2020, there is no way to explain it at that time.
Finally, Muyang asked, 2100 type, each price is 1.55 million, nine axes and five linkages, which can fully meet the vast majority of processing needs, and also has a laser cutting function, and the gap between processing accuracy is not large, and the gap with 2300 is mainly in processing speed.
In fact, the 2100 was already called a high-speed machining center back then, and it was dazzling to start, but compared with the 2300 model, the speed has nearly doubled, you know, this is not a small number.
Continue to look at the next one, Germany Rhodes Machine Tool Company, after the reception staff introduced to Muyang, Muyang opened his mouth to Roeders MMRT2750 machining center, and the receptionist said in embarrassment: "Sir, we have discontinued the MMRT2750 model, and now we only provide maintenance parts to those customers who have purchased MMRT2750." ”
"That's a pity, I'd like to buy a few more." Mu Yang said with a little regret.
"Sir, I don't know how many you want." The receptionist hurriedly asked. If you want more, you can start producing a batch, anyway, it is a ready-made mature technology.
"10 units, or 20 units, depending on the purchase situation of other companies." Muyang Road.
"Ah, please wait a minute, I'll ask the manager." The reception staff hurried away. Not long after, a middle-aged man came over, he was the sales manager of Rhodes Machine Tool Company, and finally agreed with Muyang that if Muyang wanted 20 units, he could make a batch for him at a price of 1.2 million euros each.
"By the way, since you have eliminated the MMRT2750 machining center, can you transfer the technology of this machine tool to me?" Muyang asked.
The manager looked at Muyang suspiciously, and then said: "Don't you want to open your own processing plant, why do you think of buying the technology of the processing center, sorry, the technical information of these processing centers are the core technology of our company, even if it is a model that has been eliminated, it is not sold to the public." ”
It seems that these companies are still very careful about their technical data, even if it is an obsolete product, they are afraid of causing technical leakage and bringing technical loopholes to the company's future development.
Muyang came to Siemens' exhibition area again, and finally found that the 803E machining center had been discontinued, and Siemens had no idea of restarting production, so Muyang had to leave.
In fact, Muyang just asked the sales manager of Rhodes Machine Tool Company, not that he was on a whim, but that he did have the idea of buying the other party's technology, and no matter how many products he buys, it is not as important as mastering the technology himself. (To be continued.) )
