Wang Junmin: A leader in scaling the heights of technological innovation

Committed to the localization of complete sets of equipment, expanding industrial and market space. Wang Junmin realized that "introduction can only narrow the gap, innovation can win the future." Therefore, he has unswervingly been committed to the localization of coating processing equipment. Through the digestion and absorption of imported technologies and equipment, he actively carries out independent innovation. In the design and development project of the localization of "large-scale coating processing equipment" (Wuhan Iron and Steel Group Egang continuous hot-dip galvanizing project), he served as the chief designer. Based on the internationally widely used advanced and mature process technology, the project independently innovated and developed vertical degreasing, FK air knife, four-roller wet leveling machine, integrated technology of large-scale vertical annealing furnace, vertical passivation technology, high-speed unit stable pass-through, etc. The continuous annealing furnace flue gas waste heat utilization technology researched in this project has reduced production costs, and the energy saving and consumption reduction effect is significant. The comprehensive energy consumption of the unit is better than that of imported units abroad, and it has won the second prize of Hubei Provincial Science and Technology Progress Award.

Committed to the research and development of new products to fill the gap in domestic complete sets of equipment. He is responsible for presiding over the research and design of the first domestically independently integrated continuous hot-dip aluminized zinc unit. Based on the company's mature continuous hot-dip galvanizing technology and equipment, he digests and absorbs the special technologies of foreign counterparts in aluminized zinc plating, and develops key technologies and equipment with independent intellectual property rights. This project has filled the domestic gap in the processing of complete sets of equipment for aluminized zinc plates and strips, and has successfully replaced imports. Its main technical level has reached the international advanced level of similar equipment. This achievement has been widely used in dozens of steel enterprises in China and exported abroad, achieving significant social and economic benefits. He led the technical team to research and develop a number of new processes and equipment, such as automatic backwashing magnetic filters, pre-furnace tension stabilizers and control systems, zinc pot zinc nose humidification systems, new thin coating air knives, strip magnetic stabilizers, and coating alloying processes and equipment developed for household appliance plates, automotive plates, hot-dip galvanizing and continuous annealing units. The use of these technologies and domestically produced equipment has made it possible to produce high-end household appliance plates and high-strength steel for automotive plates.

Committed to technology integration and experience accumulation, expanding the "Belt and Road" overseas market. In the process of promoting the industrial development and market space of Shanli Company, striving to achieve unconventional and leapfrog development of the enterprise, and laying the dominant position in the domestic "coating processing equipment" industry, Wang Junmin has given full play to his unique technological advantages and personal potential. In the construction of the Huangshi Shanli Xingye 1.2 million-ton cold-rolling key project, he served as the chief designer, and led the completion of the factory area general layout, the determination of the process technology schemes of various units, and the design of key equipment. In particular, he achieved a breakthrough in the development of the "1.2 million-ton continuous pickling unit" and the "large-scale hot-dip galvanizing unit." The successful implementation of this project has accumulated experience for the company in the "miniature cold rolling plant general contracting project", and laid the foundation for the company to face the overseas market and respond to the national "Belt and Road Initiative" strategic thinking. He also presided over the development of super-thick plate hot-dip galvanizing and super-thick coating continuous production technology and equipment, and pioneered the full-line process route of "pickling-leveling-galvanizing" combined unit, which has been successfully implemented and was awarded the "2017 Provincial Science and Technology Progress First Prize" by the Hubei Provincial Government.

Committed to building an industrial technology R&D platform and creating and applying for more national invention patents. Wang Junmin actively responded to the call of the Huangshi Municipal Government to establish several key industrial research institutes, and actively participated in the establishment of the "Huangshi Shanli Plate and Strip New Materials Research Institute", leading the technical R&D team to carry out key technological research in the industry and build an industrial technology R&D platform. With his support, Shanli Company has accumulated more than 60 patents and obtained 7 major scientific and technological achievements. The "Shanli trademark" has been recognized as a "Chinese famous trademark"; "Coating processing equipment" has been recognized as a Hubei famous brand product. Since the establishment of the new materials research institute in 2018, 10 national invention patents have been applied for, and these 10 invention patents are currently pending release.
