In the Xinhan Industrial Park of Luyang Economic and Technological Development Zone, Hefei, a blue truck is parked on one side, carrying N95 medical mask production equipment that just arrived in the early morning of the 8th. The company that purchased the N95 medical mask is expected to start production next week after the first batch of raw materials are transferred in, "said Liang Qigang, the person in charge of the company.

Newly arrived mask production equipment

On the morning of the 8th, reporters walked into the Grande production workshop, where machines roared and more than ten workers were producing disposable bed sheets, duvet covers, pillowcases, boot covers and other medical products at full power.
It is reported that the enterprise is mainly engaged in the production of foreign trade hygiene products. Due to the sudden outbreak of the epidemic in China, export production was urgently suspended and turned into the production of scarce hygiene products. On February 6th, 500 sets of disposable bed three piece sets were rushed out and sent to Hefei Binhu Hospital, "company official Liang Qigang told reporters

Testing of mask production equipment

In order to realize the transfer of export to domestic sales, the relevant departments of Luyang District also launched the emergency plan as soon as possible to handle the domestic sales approval and other procedures for enterprises.
However, for enterprises, another key task at present is the production of masks. Liang Qigang told reporters that a year ago, the company purchased two N95 production lines from Jiangsu due to receiving orders for foreign masks. Unexpectedly, the outbreak of the novel coronavirus epidemic resulted in a shortage of masks.
In order to produce as soon as possible and support the front line of the "epidemic", the company coordinates with equipment manufacturers to expedite shipment. Due to traffic restrictions during the epidemic, we first found a local truck from Jiangsu to transport the production equipment to the intersection of Jiangsu and Anhui highways, and then sent a local truck from Anhui to pick up the goods at the intersection. A few days ago, a semi-automatic mask production line arrived, and the fully automatic N95 medical mask production line has just been brought back! "Liang Qigang told Anhui Business Daily Rong Media.

Production of disposable sanitary products by enterprises

Although the production equipment is already in place, the raw materials are still being urgently transported. Liu Fenghua, the general manager of the company, said, "We will send people to the upstream raw material manufacturers to 'grab' goods. Every bit we can get is every bit, and once the materials are in place, we can debug and produce them." It is reported that the first batch of 99.6 kilograms of raw materials will arrive in Hefei on the 9th, and after the production line debugging and testing are successful, it is expected to start production next Monday. The first batch is expected to produce thousands of N95 medical masks. "The production capacity of our equipment can reach 100000 pieces per day, which is mainly limited by raw materials. The company is still coordinating in many ways, and the second batch is expected to purchase one or two tons of raw materials. But now there are too many variables, and everything is still uncertain." Liu Fenghua said that the first batch of N95 masks produced will give priority to the front-line personnel of Hefei, such as medical staff, public security traffic police, and community workers.
