to 300 machines annually. In order to ensure the quality of the production, 35% of the total investment in Wuxi was allocated for state of the art machining equipment. “If we produce parts ourselves, the transfer of knowledge will be so much easier,” said Robin Lu, president of the die casting division at Bühler China. As the headquarters for Bühler China, the Wuxi facility
will be used not only for manufacturing but also research and development, sales and service, as well as training. “Along with Europe and the USA, China is one of the three large centers for our business,” said Marcello Fabbroni, head of product management and marketing at Bühler. “Of course, it is crucial that we maintain a presence on site in all of these centers.” Te market for die casting machines will continue to
develop very quickly in China. Next year, Bühler expects growth of approximately 10% for the production of com- ponents manufactured by the die casting division. “Tat is huge,” said Fabbroni. “It has become clear that Chinese customers are increasingly paying more attention to quality. Tis represents a great change in thinking.” ■
能增加到每年300台的规模。为了保证产品质量，无锡 新厂总投资的35%用于购置最先进的制造装备。布勒 （中国）压铸事业部总裁Robin Lu 说：“如果零部件 的生产实现了本地化，技术的成果转化将变得更加容 易。”
作为布勒（中国）的总部，无锡工厂将不仅作为一 个生产基地，也将作为研发中心、销售和服务中心、培 训中心。“中国是布勒集团在欧洲和美国以外的三大 业务中心之一” ，布勒集团的产品管理和市场负责人 Marcello Fabbroni说，“当然，我们在所有的市场都 要占有一席之地，这是非常重要的。”
压铸设备的市场需求将在中国持续快速发展。布勒预 计明年10%的增长来自于压铸事业部。Fabbroni说：“ 这个增长是巨大的，中国客户越来越重视质量，这体现 了观念上的巨大变化。” ■
