Home Appliance Industry Upgrades Core Parts and Accessories

The core components and various materials “armed” each home appliance around us from the inside out. The core components such as compressors, motors, and controllers are directly related to the quality, performance, service life, and safety of the entire machine, and they continuously promote the upgrading of the entire household appliance industry in terms of energy saving and environmental protection, and reducing production costs. At the same time, different materials such as glass, plastics, and steel plates are used as electrical panels, enclosures, and liners, and on the basis of satisfying the functional requirements of the whole machine, after a special treatment of high-tech content, they are given a new mission to make homes. The electrical design innovation space is wider and becomes a fashion highlight in the modern home environment.

It is worth noting that in recent years, various raw materials, parts and components, molds, and manufacturing equipment industries in the upper reaches of the Chinese home appliance industry chain have been developing at a rapid pace, the scale has grown, and the level of production technology has continuously improved. According to the data, in 2012, the total capacity of the entire refrigerator compressor industry exceeded 140 million units, and the capacity of air-conditioning compressors in the industry was not less than 150 million units. According to industry online data, from January to November 2012, the output of refrigerator compressors in China reached 10.08 million units, and the output of air-conditioner rotary compressors reached 105.7 million units. Under the exuberant productivity, China’s home appliance parts manufacturing industry has become quite large and its position in the international market has become more and more important. According to data from the General Administration of Customs, from January to November 2012, China exported 25,349,900 refrigerators, a year-on-year increase. 23.03% growth, air-conditioning compressors 16.5959 million units, an increase of 7.02%. In addition, exports of air-conditioner components other than compressors reached 316,292,500 units, while exports of washing machines with less than 10kg reached 50,805,900 units.

At the same time, China’s home appliance component manufacturing industry is conducting in-depth research on issues such as improving overall energy efficiency, controlling product quality and manufacturing costs, making household appliances manufacturing and use more green, and accumulating a wealth of technological achievements. Many of the "Chinese-made" parts and components have maintained their leading international standards. Taking the refrigerator compressor as an example, in 2012, the COP value of the refrigerator compressor was again refreshed. The COP value of the frequency conversion aluminum wire motor refrigerator compressor launched by Beijing Embraco Snowflake Co., Ltd. was as high as 2.30W/W, and some domestic well-known refrigerators. Compressor manufacturers have also achieved mass production of energy-efficient refrigerator compressors with a COP value of 1.90W/W or more. From the perspective of the average level of production in the industry, the energy consumption of refrigerator compressors has been reduced by more than 60% compared with the early 1990s.

In 2013, the improvement of the manufacturing level of core components has become the key to upgrading the household appliance industry. Against this background, the China Household Appliances Expo 2013 - Shanghai 2013 (hereinafter referred to as "Shanghai Consumer Electronics Show") held at the Shanghai New International Expo Center in March 2013 has set up a special raw material exhibition area for the upstream parts of home appliances. Manufacturers provide opportunities for the display of new technologies and new products, providing a platform for communication and communication between upstream and downstream of the home appliance production chain. The reporter learned from the organizing committee that at present, Shanghai Hitachi Electric Appliance Co., Ltd., Guangdong Meizhi Refrigeration Equipment Co., Ltd., Beijing Embraco Snowflake Compressor Co., Ltd., Huangshi Dongbei Electromechanical Group Co., Ltd., and Gaxibei La Compressor Co., Ltd. Companies, Wanbao Group, Hangzhou Qianjiang Compressor Co., Ltd., Changshu Tianyin Electromechanical Co., Ltd., Suzhou Ruitaike Electromechanical Co., Ltd. and other home appliance upstream component manufacturers have confirmed their participation. According to the organizer, the exhibitors' area of ​​this fair will exceed 1,500 square meters.
