In the A.C. era, localization has been expedited by policies in many countries hastened by the pandemic. Goldcard also pursues innovative cooperations that make its powerful R&D knowhows and strong production ability valuable for the overseas customers.
Recently, we successfully helped our overseas customer build its local smart gas meter manufacturing workshop supporting annual output 100k, and obtained production license, despite the challenges of travel ban and distance communication, etc. caused by the pandemic.
All the production localization jobs from manufacturing workshop planning, equipment selection and procurement, transportation and assembly instruction, trial production, etc. were not easy, especially when only communicate remotely. While we handled every step with caution and overcame all difficulities combining our own experiences with customer's realistic situations.
Firstly, to have over 100 machine parts and accessories delivered and received without mistake, we have each item marked and traced on checklist, all connectors pre-matched with labels, photos and guide videos were shot in advance along with the production and packing process in China, so that customer can be well guided on receiving.
"It was like playing a big Lego, easy and interesting, just need to be patient, thank you guys for the wonderful preparation!" said our customer excitingly. They completed most of the assembly before our video call just following the support documents and guidelines.
Calibration process is rather challenging, considering how vital the accuracy performance of a meter is. In the one-week video meetings, we checked one by one the parameters and conditions of sonic nozzel test bench, including humidity, temperature, interfaces, wires, etc. and received correct calibration result in the trail.
We appreciate efforts from the Goldcard technical team, our partners and customers involved. It was a fantastic and successful team work. All that we encountered and overcome yet have become precious treasures that laid foundation for further implementations.
Goldcard will keep summarizing experiences and optimizing solution delivery ability, to further empower more overseas partners, taking advantages of China's large-scale manufacturing and Goldcard's global IoT meter application experiences, therefore, promote worldwide smart utility upgrading, help job creation, contribute to economic recovery after the epidemic, share the future and opportunities that IoT brought to the world.
