In the field of fluid environmental protection, Henan Xinxiang Lifelte Filter Co., LTD. (hereinafter referred to as "Lifelte") takes the "craftsman spirit" as the gene, deeply integrating technological innovation and precision manufacturing, and has been deeply engaged in the research and development, production and service of environmental protection equipment such as filtration equipment, air purification equipment, seawater desalination equipment and sewage treatment equipment for 14 years. From the physical production to the two-wheel drive of capital operation, Lifelt takes ingenuity as the anchor and science and technology as the wing to set up a new benchmark of "Chinese wisdom" in the global market.
Founded in 2008, Lifelte is rooted in Xinxiang City, an important industrial town, and opens up a path of "technological differentiation" in the homogenization competition of the industry. Li Jianguo, the founder of the company, led the team to abandon the "low-end OEM" model and enter the market with the ultimate concept of "Although the filter is small, it is related to the lifeblood of the industry". In July 2016, Lifelte successfully landed on the New Third Board, becoming one of the few enterprises in the filtration industry with both physical manufacturing and capital operation capabilities, and driving development with the twin engines of "artisan spirit + capital enablement". At the beginning, the company invested a huge amount of money to build a "micron filter material laboratory" and introduced German precision testing equipment, which compressed the product error rate from the industry average 5% to 0.2%. This "precision revolution" enables its first custom filters to achieve "zero fault" operation in military projects, and has since laid the foundation for the high-end market. Today, Liefert's products have covered more than 10 fields such as metallurgy, petrochemical, electric power and paper making, and established strategic cooperative relations with more than 70,000 customers, and its service network radiates to 128 countries and regions around the world.
The craftsman spirit is not a compromise on efficiency, but an innovation to achieve perfection." Wang Pengfei, technical director of Liffert, introduced that the company builds a "man-machine collaborative" production system: on the one hand, inherits the "fine-tuning skills" of manual craftsmen, sets up a team of old craftsmen to ensure the "human-controlled accuracy" of the core process; On the other hand, it invests 100 million yuan to build an intelligent production line, integrates AI detection, digital twin modeling and other technologies, and realizes the collaborative work of "robot arm + craftsman wisdom". Case: In the research and development of a customized high temperature filter for a nuclear power project, the team went through 32 material iterations and manually adjusted the sealing structure for more than 2000 times, and the final product can withstand 1300℃ high temperature and the filtration accuracy can reach 0.05 microns, filling the domestic technology gap. Such breakthroughs have become the norm in Liffert: the company's annual R&D investment accounts for 18% of revenue, and a total of 1 invention patent and 114 utility model patents have been obtained, of which "multi-layer nanofilter technology" has been included in the national standard
Liffert extends the spirit of craftsmanship to the service chain: each product needs to be tested for 72 hours before leaving the factory, and is bound to the "digital ID" traceability system, which can query the raw material batch, assembly craftsman and other full link information. The after-sales team implements the "15-minute response + lifelong maintenance" mechanism, has developed customized filters for overseas customers, solved their production line failures within 72 hours, and saved economic losses of more than 1.5 million US dollars. "Customer trust comes from exceeding expectations." Sales Director Zhang Lin said that Liffert implemented the "product + solution" model and actively optimized the fluid system design for customers, which reduced the energy consumption of a petrochemical company by 22%. The conversion rate of such value-added services exceeds 80%, and the customer re-purchase rate is stable at more than 90%.
In the Liffert workshop, the development of craftsmen follows a "nine-step system" : from apprentice to "chief craftsman" need to go through nine levels of assessment, and complete 40 hours of cross-disciplinary training every year. The company created a "quality points bank", linked the error rate to the artisan rating, and set up an "innovation trial and error fund", allowing employees to explore technological breakthroughs in a protected environment. "Our craftsmen are not only operators, but also 'product philosophers'." Li Hui, director of the Human Resources Department, introduced that the company's annual training investment exceeded 3 million yuan, and built a training base with Henan Institute of Technology and Zhongyuan Institute of Technology, and launched the "craftsmen equity plan" in 2023, and core employees can share the development dividend of the enterprise. This mechanism keeps staff turnover below 2% for years.
Facing the wave of Industry 4.0, Liffert takes "intelligence without losing ingenuity" as the transformation principle. In 2024, the company launched the "Smart Filter 2.0 system" : the product is embedded in the Internet of Things module to achieve self-diagnosis and cloud optimization; The craftsman transforms into a "data tuner" and debugs surreal working conditions through a virtual simulation platform. "The filter will 'think' in the future, but the source of thinking is still human ingenuity." Li Jianguo outlook, Lifelte will adhere to the belief of "technological evolution does not change the original heart", to become the forefront of the global industry at a faster speed, and inject new momentum into the revitalization of national industry. ** From the Xinxiang workshop to the global market, Liffert has interpreted the value of The Times with 14 years of artisan spirit: it is not only the adherence to "slow work", but also the wisdom of embracing change with an extreme attitude. In the transition from "Made in China" to "Made in China", Liffert takes ingenuity as a beacon and illuminates a win-win road of quality and innovation.
Join hands with science and technology to realize Chinese creation and build the Chinese Dream!
