\u201cThe fastest way to grow is through quality management.\u201d These words from Wang Mengzhe, Senior Quality Supervisor at Wuxi Daming, encapsulate not just his journey but also the core philosophy of Daming\u2019s relentless pursuit of excellence in advanced manufacturing.<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\n

Having joined the Daming family in 2006, Wang has spent nearly two decades witnessing and contributing to the company\u2019s evolution. From a young production line worker to a seasoned quality management leader, his growth mirrors Daming\u2019s transformation into a benchmark enterprise in the metal processing and industrial manufacturing sector.<\/p>\n

\n

From the Front Lines to the Core of Strategy<\/b><\/strong><\/h2>\n

\u201cOver the years, I\u2019ve become deeply familiar with Daming\u2019s core processes\u2014slitting,\u00a0cut-to-length, bending, welding, and more,\u201d Wang recalls. \u201cBut the real turning point came when I stepped into the realm of quality management.\u201d<\/p>\n

For Wang, quality management is more than compliance\u2014it’s a holistic management philosophy. Drawing on his experience, he summarizes four key pillars that underpin Daming\u2019s quality culture: system construction, process control, technological empowerment, and team building<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\n

1. <\/b><\/strong>Building a Robust Quality Management System<\/strong><\/h3>\n

At the heart of Daming\u2019s quality strategy lies a structured, standardized system designed around both international standards<\/strong>\u00a0and customer-specific needs<\/strong>. The integration of ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, ISO 3834, and IATF 16949 ensures comprehensive coverage across safety, environment, welding, and automotive industry quality standards.<\/p>\n

\n

A standout example: In a new energy equipment project, by embedding customer requirements into the management system, defect rates were reduced by 17%<\/strong>, demonstrating the power of structured, tailored quality frameworks.<\/p>\n

\n

By charting end-to-end quality flow diagrams and using FMEA (Failure Mode and Effects Analysis)<\/strong>, the company proactively addresses risks in design, procurement, and production phases, preventing issues before they occur.<\/p>\n

\n

2. <\/b><\/strong>Evolving from \u201cFirefighting\u201d to Preventive Process Control<\/strong><\/h3>\n

“Quality issues often lag behind the processes that cause them,” Wang says. That\u2019s why real-time monitoring and proactive prevention are core to Daming’s operations.<\/p>\n

\n

Key process parameters are monitored using statistical process control (SPC)<\/strong>, and the \u201cThree Presentisms\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0(on-site, present object, reality) and \u201cThree No Principles\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0(no accepting, no making, no passing defects) serve as quality cornerstones.<\/p>\n

\n

In a power battery box project, implementing standardized control checkpoints and early risk identification mechanisms helped contain problems before they reached downstream production\u2014cutting variation by 30%<\/strong>\u00a0and reducing defect recurrence.<\/p>\n

\n

3. <\/b><\/strong>Technology as the Driver: Digital Quality Management<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Wang emphasizes the transformative power of digital tools: \u201cTechnology is the primary productive force\u2014and Daming is fully embracing it.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n

With the MES (Manufacturing Execution System)<\/strong> at its core, Daming uses big data analytics to trace quality deviations to their root causes, such as identifying correlations between tool wear and dimensional inconsistencies.<\/p>\n

\n

In a container plate project, advanced data modeling increased the key process pass rate from 92% to 98%<\/strong>, enhancing zero-residue processing accuracy and improving material utilization for customers.<\/p>\n

\n

AI image recognition<\/strong>\u00a0and the Nova steel plate diagonal detection device<\/strong>\u00a0further empower Daming\u2019s real-time defect detection system, ensuring that only fully compliant products reach the customer.<\/p>\n

\n

4. <\/b><\/strong>People-Driven Culture: Embedding Quality into the DNA<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\u201cEven the most advanced system requires human execution,\u201d Wang says. Daming has built a people-centered quality culture<\/strong>\u00a0that emphasizes full participation, transparency, and continuous improvement.<\/p>\n

\n

Through the Quality Points Assessment System<\/strong>, employee performance is directly linked to quality outcomes\u2014such as self-inspections, customer complaints, and quality violations\u2014promoting accountability at every level.<\/p>\n

\n

Cross-functional QC teams<\/strong>\u00a0are empowered to address complex challenges collaboratively, breaking down departmental silos and encouraging innovation. Meanwhile, layered training programs ensure both frontline operators and managers are equipped with the right tools and mindset.<\/p>\n

\n

Annual events like \u201cQuality Month<\/strong>\u201d celebrate best practices, share knowledge through case studies, and foster a sense of shared responsibility through contests, workshops, and awards. Recognitions like the \u201cExcellent Quality Team\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0stimulate internal benchmarking and help cultivate a mindset of \u201czero tolerance for defects.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n

Personal Growth Through Quality<\/b><\/strong><\/h2>\n

Reflecting on his 20-year journey, Wang shares valuable lessons for aspiring quality professionals:<\/p>\n

\n

    \n
  • Be brave in the face of challenges.<\/strong>\u00a0Embrace setbacks as learning opportunities and take responsibility without fear.<\/li>\n
  • Focus on details while maintaining a big-picture mindset.<\/strong>\u00a0Every detail matters in quality.<\/li>\n
  • Leverage collective strength.<\/strong>\u00a0Quality isn\u2019t a solo pursuit\u2014it\u2019s a collaborative effort across departments and functions.<\/li>\n
  • Never stop learning.<\/strong>\u00a0The rise of AI, digital tools, and new standards means constant evolution. Stay curious and proactive.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

     <\/p>\n

    \u201cQuality management is not just a discipline\u2014it\u2019s a way of thinking,\u201d Wang concludes. \u201cIt requires system-level thinking, data-based decision-making, technological support, and cultural buy-in. Only by uniting these elements can we move from simply meeting standards to achieving excellence.\u201d<\/p>\n
