Luo Baihui: Hardware companies should pay attention to the establishment of standards

Recently, the European Commission's non-food rapid alert system (rapex) issued a consumer warning for products produced from China's hardware power tools. Domestic related hardware tool manufacturers and exporters should attach great importance to this. Why are Chinese hardware companies warned of power tools exported to the EU? The main reason is the lack of understanding of EU hardware product directives and standards.

Power tools are the most widely used hardware tools in the whole society. With the advancement of the times and society, the power tool market is developing rapidly. At the same time, the damage caused by various types of power tools to consumers due to various quality problems also occurs from time to time. The demand for power tools in the domestic market is becoming increasingly strict. The European Union has developed a special 60745-1 standard for hardware and electric tools. Its purpose is to establish specifications for hardware power tools and to regulate the power tools that enter the European market, thereby reducing or avoiding the damage caused by power tools to consumers. Europe has also introduced an electrical certification law.

All the specifications and series of power tool products exported by relevant enterprises to the EU must be certified and marked by the EU Electrical Directive before export. The products that are due to expire must be applied for certification in time. In addition, within the inspection time of the power tool, the company needs to do the preparatory work in advance. Enterprises need to accumulate experience, and the products involved will be adjusted accordingly according to EU regulations, otherwise they will be eliminated by the market.

Repeated anti-dumping of Chinese hardware from abroad shows that there are still quality problems in China's hardware industry, and it also shows that no unified standard is absolutely impossible for China's hardware industry. Whoever has the standard, who has the market! Who is the first to participate in the standard, who will participate in the future! With the deepening of global economic integration, "standards" have become more and more important in the global market competition. Luo Baihui, an industry expert, pointed out that hardware companies should timely understand and master the regulations and standards for the safety of power tools imported by importing hardware tools, such as the latest requirements for power tools in the EU; enterprise product design and quality management personnel should be familiar with and understand standards. When developing design products, we must not only consider the shape and function of the products, but also pay attention to the safety performance of the products according to the inspection standards of the countries that are exported to the country. The product is designed to meet the testing standards of the country of origin, and the product has market value. Luo Baihui believes that the entry threshold of the hardware industry is currently low, the standards of hardware enterprises are not perfect, some hardware products lack the definition of standards, the quality level is not uniform, and the dragons are mixed. Some consumers' understanding of products is also sloppy, and there are very few understandings of the industry standards. Whether it is hardware or hardware, the hardware industry lacks uniform standards, so the hardware industry has always been in a state of imperfect standards. . Luo Baihui pointed out that there are many kinds of hardware products, and the replacement is very fast. There is still a way to go to establish a molding hardware standard. Leading companies in the hardware industry are required to bring such a thing. And it is necessary to set up a special hardware standard auditing organization. This will become a system.

From the above analysis, the hardware industry lacks unified standards. In the case of fierce competition at home and abroad, it is necessary to establish a standard institution of its own. At the same time, the leading enterprises of hardware take the lead in doing this to ensure the orderly health of the hardware industry. development of.
