Ningbo Water Meter Debuts Shanghai Water Treatment Exhibition

Only focus can go further

Ningbo Water Meter, established in 1958, is a top-ranked water meter company in China. Its predecessor was Ningbo Water Meter Factory, a professional manufacturer of water meters that was originally designated by the Ministry of Machinery Industry. In the course of nearly 60 years of development, Ningbo Water Meter has always adhered to the tenet of “One industry is the main, and is doing fine and strong”, focusing on the R&D and manufacturing of various types of water meters. After years of research and exploration, the company's main products have more than 600 varieties. “In terms of water meter production alone, our company is already ranked first in the country or even in the world.” Director Chen introduced that in 2016, the company’s annual production of water meters reached nearly 10 million units.

At this exhibition, Ningbo Water Meter brought the company's most representative products - traditional mechanical water meters and narrow-band Internet of Things water meters that lead the times.

Traditional mechanical water meter Needless to say, as a star product, the company’s traditional mechanical water meter has domestic leading R&D and manufacturing technologies. According to the introduction of the Director Chen, the small-diameter high-precision water meter independently developed by the company has a range ratio of 160 or 200 times, representing the highest level in the country; another narrow-band Internet of Things meter is related to Huawei, China Mobile, China Telecom and other companies. Cooperation is the leader of the future intelligent water meter.

Years of concentrated research and development, making Ningbo water meter products have been well received by the market. “According to the early market feedback of the remote water meter (cable), the stability rate of the product is as high as 99.98%. This stability rate is currently at the absolute leading position in China!” Chen told the reporter. “Because we only make water meters, In this field, it can be said that the study is very deep and detailed. We have always believed that only concentration can go further."

The tide of intelligent age

With the rapid development of information technology and the active construction of water supply and drainage projects such as “Intelligent Water Services” and “Ladder Water Price”, the company keeps pace with the times and continues to invest in water meter R&D products. From the remote water meter to the remote direct-reading water meter, Ningbo water meter has achieved one after another technical breakthrough.

In order to meet the production needs of smart water meters and better ensure the stability of product quality, in 2016, Ningbo Water Meters carried out technological transformation projects and implemented comprehensive improvements in both hardware and software. Including the introduction of European imports of fully automated assembly robots, automatic welding of cutting surface robots and other equipment, greatly improving the product quality and accuracy.

Talking about the future development direction of the company, Director Chen believes that at this stage, mechanical water meters are still the mainstream, and large-diameter water meters are widely used in the industrial field. In addition, the problem of shortage of water resources in the country has become increasingly serious. How to effectively control the leakage rate of the water supply network is the current challenge facing the entire industry. Therefore, the company will continue to improve the research and development of the metering precision of mechanical water meters. Through the introduction, absorption, and foreign advanced technology, the company promotes the upgrading of products and brings better user experience.

At the same time, the water meter industry is undergoing an unprecedented transformation and transformation. As the leader in the national water meter industry, the company will continue to increase investment in R&D on the basis of the development of mechanical water meters to increase the level of intelligence in water meters and provide users with More convenient, stable and reliable smart water meter.

With decades of profound accumulation and forward-looking strategic vision, Ningbo Water Meter has achieved a well-deserved "No. 1" in this highly competitive industry. Director Chen said, “Through this exhibition, we have more fully understood the market trends and needs.
