The company has successively participated in drafting 6 national and industry standards including the "JJG-1021 Verification Regulation for Power Instrument Transformers," undertaken more than 90 provincial-level or above scientific and technological innovation projects, and obtained 131 authorized patents, including 17 invention patents.
The company specializes in producing three major series of products: 10kV ~ 1000kV instrument transformers, surge arresters, and complete test equipment. The instrument transformer products have passed type tests by internationally renowned testing institutions KEMA and CESI, and the company is one of the main suppliers to State Grid Corporation of China and China Southern Power Grid. The market share of 35kV and above instrument transformer products ranks among the top two in China. The products have been operating safely in key projects such as Beijing Daxing Airport, Central Tibet Interconnection, Zhaluite UHV, Daqing Oilfield, Shengli Oilfield, Lanzhou-Xinjiang Railway, Beijing East Station, Tianjin South Station, Guangzhou Mumian, and Baihetan-Zhejiang. The company's products are exported to countries including Singapore, South Korea, Russia, the United States, Brazil, Australia, India, and Angola.
The company possesses a domestically first-class professional production and testing line. From raw material incoming inspection to product delivery to users, every stage has complete testing methods, and the process equipment has reached international advanced levels. The company has more than 20 imported dedicated winding machines, more than 20 fully automatic wrapping machines and rolling machines, with 100% fully automatic control of key processes; it has 13 sets of vacuum drying treatment systems, 3 sets of vacuum impregnation systems, and 3 sets of complete insulating oil treatment devices; the company has built 3 fully shielded high-voltage test halls, with an overall system background noise level of ≤ 0.8pC, which is currently the highest level in the industry; the company has advanced testing equipment including a 3000kV fiber-optic integrated measurement and control impulse voltage generator, a 1100kV test transformer, high-current temperature rise test equipment, AC/DC partial discharge test systems, high and low temperature extreme performance test systems, and a 0.1mHz-100kHz wide-frequency-domain dielectric spectroscopy test system; it has built a high-standard physical and chemical performance laboratory with the capability to test the performance of key materials such as various gas, liquid, and solid insulating media. The products can meet the usage requirements of multiple operating conditions including special temperature, humidity, altitude, and earthquakes, with an annual production of more than 30,000 units of high-voltage instrument transformers and surge arresters at 1000kV and below.
The company has established a digital control center with the MES system as its core, integrating upper-level systems such as PLM, ERP, and OA. Through the DCS data acquisition system, it collects various data from the production process in real time, converging all information of the entire digital factory including logistics, process quality, equipment parameters, and production takt time, achieving agile and efficient management and real-time control of plan scheduling, production logistics, process execution, process quality, and equipment management. Through industrial big data analysis, continuous improvement of the entire process of planning, supporting, and execution has been achieved. The company's digital control center has achieved seamless integration with the State Grid Smart IoT Platform. Data such as incoming inspection of raw materials and components, production processes, and routine factory tests are automatically collected. In 2022, it was awarded Shandong Province Smart Factory.
The company adheres to the values of "helping others succeed to achieve self-success, collaboration and synergy, honoring contracts, and strong execution," with the vision of becoming the most respected and trusted enterprise in the industry.
