“The equipment in the flame-retardant bio-based polyester workshop, spinning workshop, winding workshop, and packaging workshop have been debugged.” At the National Advanced Functional Fiber Innovation Center Pilot Base (hereinafter referred to as “Innovation”) located in Shengze Town In the main control room of the “Central Pilot Base”, engineers reported the operating status of the equipment through the intercom.
Reporters recently learned from the innovation center pilot base that the first phase of the flame-retardant fiber pilot line has entered the final stage of joint debugging and joint testing and is expected to be officially put into use at the end of June.
Before a company determines a product project, it needs to go through several stages of laboratory research and development, small tests, pilot tests, and industrial mass production. “Pilot tests” are a very critical stage and are often called innovative. “Valley of Death”. What is about to be put into use this time is the flame-retardant fiber pilot line of the first phase of the innovation center pilot base. The project has officially pressed the “start button” since March 2021. Although it has experienced several rounds of the new crown epidemic, the project team has innovated its working methods. Methods, the “combination punch” of epidemic prevention and control was carried out, and the “acceleration” of project construction was achieved.
“The equipment of the flame-retardant fiber pilot line involves more than 200 suppliers across the country. In the face of transportation difficulties caused by the epidemic, we have specially set up a working group for epidemic prevention and control and project promotion to maintain close contact with relevant departments. Communicate closely, adopt prevention and control measures such as advance reporting, pick-up and drop-off at highway intersections, overall disinfection, and closed-loop management, and actively promote the entry of equipment.” Xu Song, general manager of the pilot base of the innovation center, told reporters that after the equipment arrived, everyone worked together to work overtime In addition, it only took 15 days to complete a month’s work.
It is reported that the construction standards of the pilot base of the innovation center are high and the tasks are heavy. In the first phase of the flame-retardant fiber pilot line alone, more than 1,000 units of various equipment were installed, nearly 100 test and testing equipment were installed, and more than 200,000 units were completed. Welding of inch-mouth pipes, using nearly 1,000 tons of various types of materials.
“As an important part of the innovation center, the pilot base has many technologies at the world’s leading level. After being put into use, it will solve the difficulties and difficulties in the research and development and testing of functional fibers, cutting-edge fibers and other technologies in the innovation center. It provides important platform support to promote the key technologies of the innovation center from the laboratory to industrial mass production.” said Mei Feng, chairman of Jiangsu New Vision Advanced Functional Fiber Innovation Center.
The National Advanced Functional Fiber Innovation Center is the 13th national-level innovation center in the country and the first national-level innovation center in the country led by private enterprises. It focuses on new functional fiber materials, high-end fiber materials and Conduct cutting-edge research in textiles, cutting-edge fiber and new materials and other directions. At present, the center has established a technological innovation supply system supported by key laboratories, pilot bases and national textile testing centers.
