April 27th 2017 is a day worth remembering for all Sullair people. On this day, Hitachi Group and Sullair reached a strong alliance to jointly pursue the goal of building the world's No.1 air compressor brand. With sincere cooperation between the two parties, the leadership of Mr. Xie Weidong, the president of Sullair Asia, and the efforts of all employees and outstanding agents of Sullair, Sullair delivered a brilliant performance in the 2017 fiscal year, with all indicators showing rapid growth.— Don’t Forget Why We Started and Move Forward Bravely —In order to achieve more stable growth for Sullair in the 2018 fiscal year, we embarked on a journey to the east with strong ambition for learning. Sullair Asia’s outstanding agent representatives and the company’s various functional staff set off to the Hitachi Group in Japan under the leadership of Mr. Xie Weidong, President of Sullair Asia, to learn from their experiences.Hitachi Production Systems Co., Ltd. has 9 plants in Japan. The main destinations for Sullair's journey to the east were the Shimizu plant in Shizuoka and the Sagami plant near Tokyo.— The first destination- the Hitachi Shimizu Company —Travel along the road to the east and look for treasures in every step Accompanied by designated personnel from the Hitachi Group, Sullair pilgrims came to their first stop along the journey——the Hitachi Shimizu Company. With a history of nearly one hundred years, the plant focuses on the design and manufacturing of oil-free screws and scroll machines. As Hitachi's "time-honored brand", the Shimizu plant deeply impressed us by its clean and well-managed environment, sophisticated error-proof processes and ingredient design, and their specific attention to detail.Neat and OrderlyIt's definitely not the first time you hear about how nice the environment in Japan . However, in addition to the lively activity area, the quietness and tidiness in the plant is also quite unique. Whether it is a busy production plant, or a neat and orderly office or meeting room, every corner that can be reached by the eye can offer a distinct view.Advanced error-proof processes and ingredient design"Being old in body but young in mind"While the plant has a long history and has an ordinary, and even slightly poor appearance, the production mode within the plant is rather advanced. As the tour went further, detailed designs could be found everywhere. The 100% ingredient-to-line model for all parts ensures efficiency of the execution of production plans. Each part on the line has an independent bar code, standing for a special and unique identity that allows for 100% traceability of each part of each machine, and the process control for quality can thus be accurately managed. There is a visual computer monitor in front of each pre-installed or assembled workbench, and the assembly process drawing of the assembled parts can be instantaneously displayed according to the input instructions of the assembler. When the operator starts the transfer, the computer automatically guides the next assembly operation according to the pace. What was more worth mentioning is that sensors are installed in the material box in front of the assembly table to collect and direct the signals, and they are perfectly matched with the assembly process drawings to instruct (by lighting-up indicator lamps) material selection for each installation part. The rigorous assembly process and efficient error prevention system eliminates errors in the drawing or incorrectly installed parts and ensures perfect quality of the products. Workbenches like this are distributed in different assembly stages, ensuring consistent and stable process control and the quality of products. Every employee of the Shimizu plant upholds the principle of high standards and strict requirements. What does this mean? Unlike outsourced processing and procurement of raw material and internal assembly adopted by most of the air compressor companies in China and overseas, the Shimizu plant has a whole-chain general assembly for products including the manufacturing of sheet metal (including spraying), pressure vessels, structural parts and pipe joints. Its whole-chain control of the product and manufacturing supply chain reflects high product standards. By attending to each product's process details, the quality of all parts can be ensured. In addition, all packaging personnel in the plant wear white gloves and hold cleaning spray in their hands. They keep looking for any minor defect to prevent the outflow of defective products even at the moment of final product delivery.This kind of production system that can quickly adapt to the changing needs of users and streamline redundant steps to achieve the best results in all aspects of production can be regarded as a masterpiece of Japanese lean production.— The second destination- Sagami Company —After saying goodbye to Hitachi's Shimizu plant, the Sullair visitors came to the Sagami Plant, not far from Tokyo. The plant also has a long history and mainly produces Hitachi vortexers and piston engines. What's more worth mentioning is that there are two special numbers related to this plant, namely, the sales monuments of 2million Hitachi vortex machines and 3 million piston engines. This is a supreme honor, and also a driving force that inspires Sullair employees to remember where they started off and continue to strive in the future to challenge Sullair and Hitachi's sales records!— The third destination- Comrade Banquet — Sullair delegates who travelled all the way to the east have also drawn the attention of the Hitachi Group.During the banquet on the last day of the visit, Mr. Aoki, vice president of Hitachi Group had dinner with Sullair delegates.During the banquet, everyone gathered and discussed the future of the Hitachi Machines Business Unit and planned for the future of Sullair Asia.For Sullair, joining the Hitachi Group is undoubtedly the right choice. It not only provides a better development platform for Sullair, but also makes Sullair's production technology and solutions more comprehensive and optimized. We believe that with the better integration and mutual promotion of Hitachi and Sullair, the two companies will become the benchmark of the world's air compressor market industry in the future! Sullair and Hitachi's peer partners are willing to work hard for this end and jointly create success!
As a global leading air compressor supplier, Sullair has been devoted to the development and manufacturing of screw air compressors for more than 50 years. Thanks to the efforts and dedication of every Sullair employee, Sullair Asia's sales and after-sales service network now covers China, Southeast Asia and other Asian regions. This is thanks to the hard work and contribution of every Sullair employee, they are the ones who have created each milestone in Sullair history.Here, in order to respond to market changes and the pace of the company's development, we have organized a training course on complex thinking and knowledge for the heads of the after-sales service department and some of the functional departments on the 19th and 20th of April. Beginning with an ice-breaking game led by Ms. Huang Xiaowei, the HR director, the learning environment was filled with laughter during each themed segment of the training course.Lesson 1: Leadership Sailing depends on steersman; all things grow under the sun. In any team, leadership skills are the winning hand. Today, the Leadership training course brought by Mr. Xie Weidong, President of Sullair Asia helps department heads master the concept of team management from the upper stream of the company and sets the tone for future development.President Xie mentioned that leadership is an art that focuses on people and guides people. It requires ambition and the willingness to undertake responsibility. As leaders, we must first establish a goal and know how to motivate and trust others in the attainment of our goals. As the president of Sullair Asia, Mr. Xie Weidong has established himself as our role model. He not only gave specific guidance to the company's leadership and implementation work, but also summed up three issues for us: 1. Does the team have a clear goal? 2Has the team been given enough time and resources? 3. Has the team received enough support? Conclusion: This is not only a requirement for Sullair leaders, but also a requirement for himself. All Sullair employees should take note and learn.Lesson 2: Brand Sales and Service ConceptsSales is about the delivery of inherent value to customers. Xie Jie, Director of the After-sales Service Department stated clearly in the “Brand Sales and Service Concepts” training that: After-sales service is the value of Sullair sales. In particular, after-sale service is tied to the parts and service of the Sullair brand. ”For Sullair, every after-sales strategy focuses on the development over the next three to five years with the key lying in providing customers with products that meet demand and solve problems. This is also Sullair's concept of creating service-oriented products. Director Xie's arguments on each aspect of brand value selling have been very innovative. Each specific example that was shared brought guidance to the trainees on how to think and act, so that everyone can fully grasp the basic concept and framework knowledge of parts and service sales.

With the objective of strengthening employee team building, increasing team cohesion, nurturing team spirit and collaboration interest, and for everyone to let off some steam and enhance internal communication among employees in the afternoon of October 13, 2017, SSAI launched a one-and-a-half-day team trip to Xunliao Bay, which boasts so-called"Godsent white shores’.After eating lunch, three passenger coaches hit the road heading for Xunliao Bay in Huidong County for a seasideadventure. Everyone took advantage and napped during the ride and the tour guide briefly made some announcementsregarding safety and the itinerary. It took a bit more than 2 hours to get to the Sea Park at Xunliao Bay smoothly. Whenarriving at the reserved hotel there, we saw the automatic e-banner at the hotel door welcoming us. Each of the roomswe reserved had a fantastic view of the sea and the beach.After placing our luggage in the guest rooms and resting for a short while, we gathered at the Sea Park Expansion Base at3:15 pm, where we enjoyed the sea breeze, beach and the crystal-clear sea. Strolling along the winding coastline, gazingat the blue sky and white clouds, and basking in the sunshine, we marveled at the glorious sun and fresh air of nature.Xunliao Bay, also called the Eastern Maldives, is like a painting, with reefs, rocks, mountains and fishing boats in thedistance. Along the coastline, the golden light of the sun shone on the sea, while waves splashed the coast, it was quitepicturesque.Our trainers at the base had already set up tents on the beach and prepared many activities. After warm-ups, our teamwas divided into four groups. Then, through brainstorming among members of each group, each group came up with theirnames and slogans which were shown on placards: Fishing (Catch you all), Sharks (No Match), Invincible (UniversallyInvincible), and No.1 (Always First). It seemed that all groups were not to be underestimated. Which would win? Wait andsee! It turned out that the Sharks won the championship with the highest total score. Seems like their slogan was prettytelling!Our uniform clothing - men in white and women in red - stood out as a beautiful sight on the beach. Many tourists wereattracted by the laughter and cheering along the beach and the fun games and activities we played drew lots of attention.A team needs effective communication and collaboration among team members to outmatch an opponent. Apart frommaking everyone active on the beach, the games were intended to make everyone understand that no matter whetherfacing success or failure, we must stay optimistic with a strong sense of competition and high spirits in both our lives andlearning. Perhaps our daily work is repetitive and dry, but we must bear in mind that excellence is present even in doingsmall things well, but working together with colleagues is a joyful thing.
