3) Quality
We have a professional physical and chemical testing room to test the reliability of product parts. The production process has set up 4 to 5 full-time inspection positions and 3 automatic testing positions to ensure that 100% of the products pass the testing of key items. At the same time, 4 to 8 products from each batch of orders are sampled for a 4 to 8 hour cycle ELT initial life test to ensure product reliability.
6. Testing and Certification Center
The Midea Microwave Oven Testing and Certification Center is established in accordance with the international standard ISO17025. It is directly authorized by the company's legal person and operates independently. It exercises independence in product research and development and quality control. of jurisdiction. The center has third-party organization certification witness laboratories, parts and complete machine safety and durability laboratories, transportation and packaging laboratories, environmental laboratories, cooking laboratories, nutritional analysis rooms, electronic chip testing rooms, etc.
The testing and certification center laboratory is accredited by the China National Accreditation Service for Conformity Assessment (CNAS), and the reports produced are recognized in countries and regions where CNAS has signed a mutual recognition agreement; in addition, it has also been accredited by UL in the United States and TUV in Germany. Recognized by SUD, German TUV Rhineland, German VDE, British Intertek, French BV-LCIE, Swiss SGS, DEKRA and other international certification agencies, it can undertake IEC/EN60335-1, 60335-2-25, 60335-2-9, On-site witness testing of GS, LVD, CB, UL, etc. safety test standards such as 60335-2-6, UL923, etc.
It has built the first HALT laboratory in the microwave oven industry and took the lead in formulating the "HALT Tester Test Method", making it a leader in innovation in industry testing standards.
7. Warehousing
The microwave oven finished product warehouse covers an area of ??about 60,000 square meters, using 5-layer three-dimensional shelves, with a total inventory capacity of up to 1.2 million units, and 58 shipping outlets. It can be operated at the same time, and the daily shipment volume can reach 100,000 units. It is currently the largest finished product warehouse of Midea Group. The finished product three-dimensional warehouse adopts the finished product logistics automatic conveying line, which greatly improves the handling efficiency.
8. Logistics
The logistics planning of the industrial park focuses on shortening the distribution distance through one flow, reducing distribution personnel through automated transport of chambers and finished products, and reducing on-site material management through simplification of component operations. Difficulty, improve logistics response speed through warehousing logistics management information system (WMS).
9. Microwave Food Research
On January 8, 2013, my country’s first academician workstation in the field of microwave food research, the Sun Dawen Academician Workstation, was established in Midea’s Kitchen Appliances Division. This workstation fills the gap in this field in China. It is reported that Midea has invested more than 10 million yuan in the first phase of scientific research funding for the workstation, and has set six core scientific research topics.
In order to better integrate the concept of "steaming" with consumers' consumption habits and further enhance the use value of microwave ovens, Midea Microwave Oven has developed a new "steaming cube" based on years of market research data. ” series of microwave ovens.
The "Steam Cube" series of microwave ovens integrate the most cutting-edge technologies in the microwave oven industry, integrating continuously innovative steam function, high-temperature nano-silver, black crystal large flat plate and other technologies. It achieves a variety of steam mode combinations, making the steaming function more powerful; the humidity sensing menu makes cooking more intelligent, bringing consumers a healthy, nutritious, technological, intelligent and environmentally friendly cooking method.
In terms of customer value, the "Steaming Cube" series microwave ovens have further expanded the scope of steamed food menus through technological upgrades. Steamed buns, rice, meat dishes, and vegetarian dishes can all be cooked by the "Steaming Cube" series microwave ovens. Into healthy and nutritious food.
Steam is generated at the bottom of the "Steam Cube" series microwave ovens, which not only saves the area of ??the control panel, but also ensures that the machine components are not affected by water vapor; the "diamond" structural design of the inner tank maximizes microwave heating efficiency and embodies Green and energy-saving design concept. In addition, the industry's exclusive use of high-temperature nano-silver liner utilizes the lotus leaf effect of nano-silver and its bionic technology to make sterilization more efficient and cleaning easier.
