Often will receive questions from purchasing customers: "in one sentence, how should we choose titanium cooperation manufacturers?"Combined with 12 years of titanium service experience rooted in Baoji China Titanium Valley, it is our understanding, Learn to ask key questions, You can tell the true strength of titanium suppliers.In this paper, five problems that need to be verified in the early stage of titanium procurement are sorted out, help industry, ocean, Pharmaceutical industry procurement personnel efficient screening of suitableTitanium Plate、titanium bar、titanium pipeSuppliers, reduce the risk of follow-up supply and quality.

Procurement inquiry phase, Many buyers only compare quotes, Ignoring verification of source supply capacity, Subsequent mixing of raw materials is prone to occur, work simplification, Delivery delay, After-sales prevarication, etc.Especially in the titanium market, Traders mixed with physical manufacturers, Through targeted questions, You can filter out some of the weaker partners.

Question 1: Can the source of raw materials be explained? The quality of raw materials directly determines the performance of titanium finished products, and it is also the primary information that needs to be verified for procurement.Baoji titanium supplier with physical production capacity, Can clearly inform the source of titanium sponge supply, For example, Shuangrui, baoti, pangang, Dragon Python Baili and other regular sponge titanium production enterprisesAt the same time, you can introduce your own smelting equipment configuration, single furnace production scale, and display your own raw material inventory. If the docking party only gives "there are channels, The quality of raw materials is no problem."Such vague answers, Lack of raw material traceability related data, Buyers need to pay more attention.

Question 2: Can you provide a third-party test report? The test report is an important proof of titanium quality verification.Reliable entity manufacturer, Long-term and SGS, Cooperation with third-party testing agencies such as Puni, Complete chemical composition can be provided in batches, Mechanical property test documents, It also supports the purchaser to designate a third-party organization to carry out re-inspection. If the other party uses "product does not need to be tested" and "testing requires additional fees" as a reason to evade, Procurement requires careful assessment of cooperation risks.

Question 3: How is the stock of conventional specifications? Spot inventory is an intuitive manifestation of supply responsiveness.Regular source manufacturer for 1‑30mm thicknessTitanium Plate、Φ10‑200mm titanium bar, common specificationstitanium pipeFor categories with large market circulation, spot resources will be prepared, Inventory available, Storage data, Regular spot orders can be delivered in short cycles. If all specifications are produced in single order, The delivery period is generally extended to one or two months, It means that the other party's own spot reserves are limited, High probability belongs to trade middlemen.

Question 4: What is the complete production process? The production process directly affects the stability of titanium finished products.entity production enterprise, to fully explain the melting process., forge, hot rolling, anneal, acid pickling, Finishing complete machining process, Heat treatment furnace, Pickling workshop and other core production equipment, Customers are also welcome to visit Baoji factory site to visit the production site. It's just a verbal emphasis on years of experience., verbal commitment quality, But I can't explain the complete processing flow, it is difficult to ensure that stability of the finis product.

Question 5: If there is a quality problem, what is the corresponding after-sales disposal plan? Perfect after-sales technical service is the basis for long-term stable cooperation.leading suppliers, Clarify the process of handling quality objections, For the quality problem of the product itself, the corresponding disposal scheme can be givenAllocation of full-time technical team, Can simultaneously assist customers to solve subsequent processing, Questions related to working condition selection, The cooperation process is synchronized with technical communication. If the merchant indicates that "the goods no longer bear relevant responsibilities after leaving the factory, Not responsible for downstream operating conditions.", Cooperation requires careful consideration.

Complete the verification of the above five questions, You can also supplement the three bonus information, Further assist in judging cooperation fitness, You can view past industry landing project casesEvaluate whether samples can be provided for preliminary testing;Communicate the feasible scheme of order payment settlement, and understand the capital turnover strength of the enterprise from the side.

It can be comprehensively screened in three ways, Apply for factory real shot video, If conditions permit, you can go to Baoji production plant for on-the-spot investigationCheck the business scope of the business license and confirm whether it includes production-related categories;Request Melting Furnace Equipment Model, Production related details such as single furnace capacity, Pure trade businesses generally do not have their own smelting production equipment.

Do manufacturers accept small-batch orders? Entity source manufacturers can undertake small-batch orders, value the possibility of long-term cooperation, and generally set a reasonable minimum order threshold.Encounter propaganda 100 kilograms can also bear all the freight suppliers, middlemen relatively high probability.
