EVAThe device started running smoothly and successfully produced qualified products, becoming the first set of equipment to resume production after a major overhaul in the entire factory, laying a solid foundation for the company to stabilize production and increase efficiency in a complex market environment.
Affected by factors such as tight international crude oil supply and rising prices, the entire plant is temporarily suspended for material waiting after the completion of major maintenance. Faced with the severe production and operation situation, the company has conducted in-depth analysis and decided to overcome difficulties and prioritize the early start of EVA equipment with marginal benefits.
It is reported that this EVA device involves 144 maintenance and renovation projects, all of which have been completed with high quality and efficiency. Among them, the high cycle technical renovation project is the first domestic application of the high-voltage system of EVA devices in the industry. After being put into use, the system operation will be more stable, providing strong support for the subsequent production of high value-added EVA products.
The smooth operation of the EVA device has accumulated valuable experience for the company's comprehensive resumption of production after major maintenance, and has also strengthened the company's confidence in responding to the current severe market situation. Next, the company will take the successful resumption of production of the EVA device as an opportunity to continue deepening the overall planning and scheduling of production and operation, and steadily promote the preparation work for the resumption of production of other devices.
