Source of supply of imported machines: Hitachi’s original imported machines are assembled in Japanese factories. Hitachi Tsuchiura Factory and Kasumigaura Factory mainly assemble medium and large computers, and TIERRA Factory mainly assembles small computers. Then it enters the country through Tianjin Port. Tianjin Yongli Construction Machinery is the general agent of Hitachi in China. Hitachi machines imported into the country are dispersed at Yongli Construction Machinery. Agents in various places get the goods from here and resell them to users. Differences between Hitachi imported machines and domestically assembled machines 1. Appearance: There is no difference in overall specifications and styling design. 1. On the right side of the Hitachi trademark at the front end of the boom, you can see from the picture that next to the Hitachi "HITACHI" trademark, the imported machine has a logo but the domestic assembly machine does not. This logo is that of Hitachi's domestic general agent Yongli Construction Machinery. logo. 2. Cab glass. On the upper left side of the cab glass, imported machines have a mark indicating the country of origin. This mark indicates which factory the machine was assembled and produced. Domestic assembled machines do not have this mark. 3. There will be an "IMPORT" import mark above the model of imported machinery and equipment. Domestic assembly machines do not have this mark. 4. The origin on the equipment nameplate is also different. The nameplate will indicate the place where the machine was produced, and the manufacturing number is also different. The HHE on the manufacturing number of domestically assembled machines means "Hefei Hitachi Excavators". 2. In addition to being different in appearance, imported Hitachi machines will have unique delivery materials. What are the reasons why the price of imported machines is higher than that of domestic assembled machines? 1. Labor costs. There is a difference in labor costs between Japanese factories and domestic assembly factories, which results in a difference in the cost of imported machines and domestic assembled machines. 2. Production cost The steel used in Hitachi imported machines is high-quality steel from Australia. It is produced on the same production line as Hitachi excavators used in Japan, Europe and the United States, and adopts the same quality standards. It is assembled in a constant-temperature assembly workshop, and the machine precision is higher. The difference between assembly in a constant-temperature assembly workshop and an ordinary workshop is that when the machine encounters stimulation from different external temperatures, the gaps between the machine parts are smaller and the performance is superior. Domestic assembly machines use ordinary steel and are assembled in ordinary workshops. The quality of imported machine parts is also higher than that of domestic machines. Imported machine parts have high manufacturing precision, small assembly gaps and good sealing properties. (For example: when the oil temperature rises in summer, the working speed of domestic and joint venture excavators drops significantly with the temperature, while the working speed of imported machines does not drop significantly with the temperature). However, domestic machines are highly localized and have relatively low quality, short service life, poor product performance stability, and high machine noise. 3. Import tariffs and other fees. When imported machines enter the country and go through a series of tariff channels, the costs will inevitably be added to the machine price. Although imported Hitachi machines are more expensive than domestic assembled machines, many users still prefer imported machines. It is difficult to compare imported machines and domestically assembled machines in the initial use, but after two or three years of use, the maintenance cost of domestically assembled machines is higher, while imported machines have less power drop, lower maintenance costs, slow depreciation of old cars, and high residual values. Users are In the bidding process, under the same relationship, the bidder may give priority to the original Hitachi. After the editor's introduction, I believe that many users have a clear understanding of the specific differences between Hitachi's imported machines and domestically assembled machines, and can better distinguish between genuine and fake when purchasing machines.
