China becomes Ford's fastest growing market in the world


On January 7, Ford Motor (China) Co., Ltd. Chairman and CEO Ge Zhinuo announced here on the 7th that in the past 2009, Ford Motor sales in China reached a record 440619 units, an increase over the same period last year. 44%. China has become Ford’s fastest-growing global market.

Affected by the financial crisis, Ford’s global sales have fallen sharply. However, in the Chinese market, it has achieved remarkable results. Ford's passenger vehicle joint venture in China, Changan Ford Mazda Motor Co., Ltd. sold 315,791 vehicles in 2009, an increase of up to 55%. Higher than the average growth rate in China.

Another Ford-invested commercial vehicle company, Jiangling Motors Co., Ltd. sold 114,688 vehicles last year, of which the Ford Transit commercial vehicle sales reached 33,585 vehicles, an increase of 22% year-on-year, and continues to lead the Chinese mid- to high-end light commercial vehicles.

He Junjie , vice president of Ford (China) and general manager of Changan Ford Motor Sales Co., Ltd., said that Ford’s sales performance last year benefited from the continuous sales of all Ford brand cars, including the new Ford Fiesta and 2010 Ford Mondeo - winning. Good market performance for new products such as Ford Focus and Skylight.

Ford Motor Company is one of the world's largest automotive companies, headquartered in Dearborn, Mich., and has automotive brands such as Ford, Lincoln, Mercury and Volvo. Ford Motor Co., Ltd. has seven wholly-owned and joint ventures in China, with a capacity of 447,000 passenger cars per year, 52,000 Ford brand commercial vehicles and 350,000 engines.

Cold Drawn Steel Bar

Cold drawn steel bar is produced by Hot Rolled Steel Bar or wire rod to get smooth surface, more precision size, higher mechanical properties, which improves machining characteristics. It can also get various sections and sizes. So cold drawn steel bar is a better choice for machining users.


For high carbon steel or alloy steel bars, to avoid the cracks in inner or surface, the bars are usually required to be annealed before cold drawing.

To get different mechanical properties or hardness depending on final usage, the cold drawn bars will also be heat treated such as annealed, normalized or quenched and tempered(Q&T).

For CNC machines usage, to get much more precision sizes or much more better surface roughness for chrome plating, the cold drawn steel bars can also be centerless ground or polished.

We have more advantages on producing cold drawn steel bars:

1) Big stocks of hot rolled round bars or wire rods as raw materials

2) Wide range of cold drawn steel bar sizes: from 10mm to 150mm

3) Different cold drawing medias powder or oil to get different surface

4) Straightening machines to get better straightness up to 0.5mm/m

5) Grinding and polishing machines to get better roughness upto 0.4um

6) Heat treating furnaces to adjust the mechanical properties

7) Full sets of testing equipment to test the sizes, mechanical properties and microstructure.

8) Multiple packages to avoid broken packages and anti-rusty
