To create a 120 horsepower engine with stable performance, excellent quality, and adaptability to market conditions
tractorThe company has launched a comprehensive field reliability test for the entire machine.
The site of this experiment is located in the Liubei area, and the experimental period is during the rainy season from June to August. Coupled with multiple challenges such as strict experimental standards, tight cycles, and insufficient resource support, a tough battle against time and difficulties has officially begun. The company adheres to a unified ideology and prioritizes efficiency. With strict standards and a proactive attitude, it solidly promotes various field experiments and strives to solidify the foundation of product quality.
01
Concentrate and work together to solve difficult problems
Collaborative efforts from multiple parties to tackle challenges together
The field reliability test of LT1204-CS tractor faces many challenges, each of which tests the team's ability to tackle challenges and collaborative responsibilities. At the beginning of the experiment, the project team first encountered the dilemma of no standardized adaptation to the experimental field, and the scarcity of qualified field work sites directly constrained the progress of the experiment initiation; At the same time, there is a shortage of compliant and certified drivers in the trial production institutions, and there is a significant manpower gap in high-intensity and long-term reliability testing, making it difficult to efficiently advance the testing schedule.
During the prototype testing process, the field conditions are complex and varied, and various types of faults occur frequently. The ability to respond quickly and handle them in a timely manner directly affects the continuity and data integrity of the test. What is even more severe is that the core indicators of this test require extremely high standards, with the first transmission failure time (TTFF) reaching 750 hours. The test duration span is large, and it is a comprehensive inspection of the product's core performance. However, the overall testing period is only 60 days, and time is extremely tight. In addition, Guangxi is in the main flood season in June, July, and August, with frequent and concentrated rainfall. The effective field operation time has been greatly compressed, and the limited operation time has formed a prominent contradiction with strict experimental indicators and ultra long experimental requirements. The difficulty of advancing the experiment is unprecedented.
Faced with a series of complex challenges, the company quickly coordinated and deployed, building a tackling system led by the chairman of the agricultural machinery company and coordinated by multiple departments. The after-sales, manufacturing, testing, research and development departments are seamlessly connected and work together in the same direction. Personnel in each position perform their respective duties and cooperate closely. From site coordination, personnel allocation, prototype rectification to test promotion and data review, a full chain collaborative operation pattern is formed. With the joint efforts of all staff, the test bottlenecks and difficulties are solved one by one, and a solid guarantee is built for the orderly progress of the test.

Prioritize efficiency over timeliness
Racing against time to catch up with progress
The construction period waits for no one. Faced with extremely tight experimental tasks, all experimental personnel uphold an efficient and pragmatic work style, adhere to the spirit of the contract, fulfill their job responsibilities, and promote various tackling tasks with the highest efficiency, making every effort to regain the work time compressed by the rainy season.
In order to solve the problem of the experimental field, the chairman of the agricultural machinery company personally led a team to conduct research, field visits, and coordination. He actively went to multiple places to screen suitable field experimental sites, set a goal to efficiently finalize standardized experimental fields within 2 weeks, completely solve the bottleneck of the experimental field, and quickly open up key nodes for the project.
In response to the shortage of compliant drivers, the after-sales and manufacturing departments took the initiative to allocate resources, quickly sorted out the internal certified personnel ledger, coordinated manpower scheduling, accurately determined dedicated test drivers within 2 days, filled the shortage of test manpower, and ensured the normal operation of test scheduling.
The R&D team is on standby throughout the entire process, fully ensuring the stable operation of the prototype. In the face of various sudden prototype failures in the field, R&D personnel adhere to their job responsibilities, prepare technical reserves and emergency response plans in advance, achieve rapid response within 1 hour and precise troubleshooting within 1 hour, efficiently solve various unexpected problems, minimize equipment downtime, and ensure the continuous conduct of failure tests.
In response to the triple pressure of high reliability requirements for 750 hour TTFF transmission, ultra short 60 day test cycle, and insufficient effective operation time during the rainy season, the project team has launched an extreme attack mode, adhering to the principle of "being able to start work without stopping, and being able to operate without interruption", implementing a 24-hour uninterrupted shift test mechanism, working day and night to compress the test cycle and make up for the operation time with extreme effort, and striving to achieve the established goal of reliability testing.
