On November 12, Chery Automobile Co., Ltd. announced that it will fully authorize Malaysian ALADO to manufacture, assemble, distribute and import six types of Chery cars. This marks Chery's formal entry into the ASEAN auto market. ALADO is part of BSA Group, the largest aluminum alloy manufacturer in Malaysia, specializing in automotive trading and sales. In accordance with the phased execution plan signed by both parties, in early December, ALADO will import 10,000 Chery QQ cars in the form of imported vehicles, and then gradually switch to CKD as planned. The new factory will be located in Nanma. A well-known local automobile assembly plant in Fowey. ALADO plans to introduce Chery’s other three new models by 2005 and complete the introduction of all six vehicles in 2006. In addition, as an important strategic location for entering the ASEAN automobile market, the Malaysian plant will provide Chery Automobiles with resources allocation, service, and technical support for entering the ASEAN market. According to reports, the joint venture company will gradually recruit 40 to 50 franchise dealers in the ASEAN region, and this plan will be launched first in Vietnam and Indonesia. It is reported that Chery has signed contracts for exporting whole vehicles or CKDs with 23 countries around the world. The products include Fengyun, Qiyun, QQ, Sons of the East, and the upcoming SUVs and NEW CROSSOVER models. In 2003, more than 1,200 vehicles were exported, which accounted for more than 90% of China's total car exports. In 2004, it was expected to complete exports of 10,000 cars. By October of this year, Chery had accumulated more than 8,000 vehicles and accounted for more than 80% of China’s car exports. (Zhang Chen)

Fasteners

Fasteners are a type of hardware device that mechanically joins or affixes two or more objects together. They play a crucial role in a wide range of industries, including construction, manufacturing, and automotive. Fasteners come in various forms such as bolts, nuts, screws, studs, pins, and nails, each designed for specific applications and materials.

One of the most popular materials used in the production of fasteners is stainless steel. Stainless steel is an iron-based alloy that contains a minimum of 10.5% chromium, providing excellent strength, corrosion resistance, and durability. These characteristics make stainless steel fasteners ideal for outdoor applications and in environments where corrosion is a significant concern. They are commonly used in sectors like marine, chemical, and food processing industries.

Bolts and nuts are among the most widely used types of fasteners. Bolts are typically used alongside nuts to hold materials together, creating a secure and robust joint. They are often used in construction, machinery, and automotive applications. On the other hand, nuts are internally threaded fasteners that secure a bolt or screw, providing a firm hold.

Screws are another common type of fastener, designed to hold objects together and in place. They are typically driven into a material using a screwdriver and are widely used in woodworking, metalworking, and in electronic devices.

Studs and pins are used in situations where one side of the fastened material is inaccessible. Studs are threaded on both ends and are often used in automotive and plumbing applications. Pins, on the other hand, are unthreaded and are used to align or hold parts of a machine or structure in place.

Nails are a type of fastener typically used in construction and woodworking. They are driven into the material using a hammer or a nail gun. Nails come in various sizes and types, each designed for a specific application.

The production of fasteners often involves Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machines. CNC is a manufacturing process in which pre-programmed computer software dictates the movement of factory tools and machinery. This technology allows for precise control of speed, location, coordination, and feed rate of the machinery, resulting in high-quality, consistent, and complex fasteners.

In conclusion, fasteners are indispensable components in various industries. Whether made from stainless steel or other materials, whether in the form of bolts, nuts, screws, studs, pins, or nails, these small devices play a massive role in holding our world together. And with the help of technologies like CNC, the production of these fasteners becomes more efficient and reliable.
