Racing Against the Clock to Prevent and Control the Epidemic Together, HARTING China Helps Containing the Outbreak Nationwide
At the beginning of the Chinese New Year, in the face of the sudden outbreak of COVID-19, all walks of life have joined in the national war to fight against the virus. As one of world’s leading providers of industrial connection technology, HARTING actively fulfills its social responsibilities. It started the emergency response mechanism as soon as possible to ensure staff safety and health as well as stable and organized production. Meanwhile, HARTING has actively raised the fund to support medical efforts to fight against COVID-19, practically contributing to this serious war.
The condition of the epidemic greatly affects all the HARTING’s people. Recently, HARTING launched a fund-raising activity in the whole company, in which employees showed their love and generosity. The company also donated to the China Charity Federation to support the medical efforts to fight against novel coronavirus-infected pneumonia, specifically providing support and emergency medical protective products for front-line medical institutions and health workers.
Simon Chan, Chief Executive Officer of HARTING (Zhuhai) Sales Limited, said, “HARTING originated in Germany and has been greatly marketed in China for years. We, as a local company, will fight against the COVID-19 together with the world. We join hands with all the staff to express our love and fight against the epidemic. We firmly believe that through the concerted efforts of all sectors of society, China will surely overcome the epidemic and the difficulties and welcome the spring! ”
Production Resumption Rate Exceeds 90% without Any Infections
HARTING Zhuhai Factory covers an area of 20,000 square meters, with more than 550 employees. It is the production, logistics, training and R & D center of HARTING in Asia and China. In the face of the epidemic, HARTING Zhuhai Factory quickly established a production resumption team for epidemic prevention and control, took the initiative to make an emergency plan for epidemic prevention and control, made comprehensive prevention and control measures as soon as possible and actively communicated with the authorities. With the joint efforts of the company, employees and the government, at present, each production line and R & D line of HARTING Zhuhai and Beijing factories have their production resumption rate exceeding 90%. And the goal of no infections for all employees has thus achieved.
Marcus Goettig, General Manager of HARTING Factory in Zhuhai, said, “since the outbreak of the epidemic, HARTING Zhuhai Factory has been focusing on epidemic prevention and production. Through safe production resumption and stable production, it ensures the timely supply of medical materials as required. We firmly believe that the Chinese people and the Chinese economy are resilient enough to withstand this epidemic. HARTING will join hands with China to win the war without smoke.”
Manufacture the Technological Devices to Fight Against the COVID-19
At the critical moment of epidemic prevention and control, medical equipment and materials are essential to contain the outbreak and save lives. As the door to epidemic prevention and control, the significance of accurate detection and diagnosis cannot be ignored. Gene sequencing, as a high-precision detection method, can provide strong technical support for scientific clinical prevention and control of epidemic and public health system.
Since the outbreak, HARTING has been gathering personnel of scientific research and technology to quickly transport the gene-sequencing device equipped with its customized RFID automatic identification system to the key areas of the epidemic to fully support the virus detection. The RFID automatic identification system jointly designed by HARTING and its partners can be used to accurately identify reagents and samples, ensure accurate matching between reagents and samples, and further enable the gene testing system to play a role in containing the epidemic.
In addition, the head office of HARTING in Germany focused on this and said that it would give full and unconditional support, prepare materials and technical support in advance, and guarantee the production and delivery of readers and writers.
Fast Delivery to Fully Guarantee the Medical Supplies
A company in Shenzhen is a leading manufacturer of special automation equipment, which previously mainly engaged in manufacturing equipment with lithium battery. Since the outbreak, in view of the urgent demand for medical protective equipment nationwide, during the CNY, we urgently developed and produced a full-automatic all-in-one medical mask machine.
In order to deploy the automatic production line, the company contacted the sales representative of HARTING at once, and confirmed on the morning of February 15 that HARTING’s Han-Modular® and other products were purchased for data, signal and power transmission of the mask machine production line. HARTING responded to the customer's demand in the first time, and Zhuhai Factory immediately entered the status of goods preparation. It received the customer's purchase confirmation from the morning of the 15th, and drove to the factory in the afternoon to pick up the goods. It only took one day to deliver HARTING connector products to the customer's factory safely.
At present, the mask production equipment of the customer factory is under normal and stable operation, and we spare no effort to race against the clock to assist the affected area and other areas and domestic enterprises.
Let’s hold hands together to fight against the outbreak! HARTING will continue to pay attention to the changes of the epidemic condition, continue to practically support China's war of epidemic prevention and control, make preparations for providing connectivity solutions and corresponding services for front-line customers, work with colleagues from all walks of life to overcome the difficulties, and contribute to win the war of epidemic prevention and control!
