01_THE COMPANY.
We have succeeded in transferring
revolutionary ideas.
THE COMPANY.
Success is a matter of competence and visionary power. But there
is more to it than just this: the courage to tread on an unknown
path; the determination needed to trust one’s own strengths; correct
timing; plus humility and a bit of luck as well.
Zhafir Plastics Machinery GmbH was launched in Germany in the
spring of 2005 with a team of highly-qualified development engineers
and experts in the plastics processing field. The goal was to develop
new kinds of technologies for the plastics processing industry, while
creating solutions that are equally compelling from an economic
perspective. Innovations that offer multiple value surpluses but that
are also affordable. In the process, the close cooperation between
German and Chinese development engineers has proven to be a
relationship that is extremely durable and productive.
Using the market know-how and experience of Haitian International,
we have succeeded in transferring revolutionary ideas and innovative
concepts into professional solutions for our customers: all-electric,
high-grade energy-efficient, precision injection-molding machines at
an attractive price-/performance ratio. These capabilities create vast
competitive advantages for the operator while opening up completely
new horizons.
In August 2007, Zhafir was incorporated into Haitian International
Holdings Ltd., a manufacturer renowned for injection-molding machines
of the highest quality. Since then, as its German subsidiary,
Zhafir has complemented Haitian’s global, multi-brand strategy.
This is why we are optimally positioned to develop further the advantages
of the Venus and Mercury Series. The potential has been
scratched.

02_OUR HISTORY
WE HAVE INCORPORATED OUR
VISION INTO A CONCEPT.
OUR HISTORY.
Haitian was first established with 100 RMB of starting capital. In over
four decades the founders, with their passion, persistence and technological
specialist knowledge, have created reliable machine concepts
with crucial competitive advantages for the customers in the plastics
processing industry. Haitian is not only a company name. Haitian, in the
Chinese language and culture, means “sea (hai) and sky (tian)”. Right
from the beginning we have incorporated our vision into this concept.
For us, water typifies dignity – it stands for the diversity of technological
potential. The sky, on the other hand, knows no limitations – it allows
every imaginable step forward. Over the last four decades this ideal
has always been the motivation for us to invest a great deal of energy
and capital into our product improvement. Today Haitian enjoys an
excellent image worldwide as a brand name. On the one hand, our
quality, high-grade machines fulfill the requirements for precision and
profitable efficiency demanded by our international customers. And on
the other hand, Haitian is valued for its customer-oriented and comprehensive
service. In this tradition, we will also be a reliable partner
for our customers, as well as a good employer for our employees.

03_our Mission.
Leadership is a commitment
The success of the plastics processor is of pivotal importance to our
approach at Haitian. As the Planets have orbital reliance on the Sun,
we have branded our products with the same customer commitment.
With consistent customer focus we became a world leader in the injection
molding machine industry.
Belief in our core values is paramount, as is a sincere appreciation for
the trust of our customers and the support of our competent partners
and investors supported by the continuous diligence of all our staff.
An important reason for our success is that we have pursued and lived
our vision in every detail - to offer technology of premium quality at
affordable prices. We have continually questioned our thinking and
actions through our communication with all market partners and other
involved parties. We work on creating innovation – whether it is big
or small, and constantly strive for perfection and the highest efficiency
with our own manufacturing. This is equally true for machine performance
on the customer’s premises.
We continue to maintain this policy with competent expansion. Everything
we do is intended to place our customers in a position to overcome
challenges profitably and sustainably. With this promise we shall
enjoy success together in the future.
Secure growth through stability
We are committed and motivated to maintain Haitian’s leading market
position. It is now necessary to combine tradition with an eye on the
future, to protect stability and secure future growth. In Far Eastern philosophy,
Bamboo is synonymous with toughness and strength which
maybe the best symbol for this effort. No other plant combines endurance
with flexibility, lightness with robustness, in such an impressive
way. When used as framework it provides enormously high stability,
even in typhoons. Likewise, Haitian is also steadfast and constant to
all its customers and partners, with reliable support in all situations.
Another comparison: Bamboo can be found in many countries around
the world due to its dynamic growth and adaptability to local environments.
Likewise for Haitian, the dynamic development of our global
manufacturing and service network is a logical progression. We use all
of our collective knowledge and experience in new research projects
for the benefit of our market partners and customers anywhere in the
world.
Knowledge with understanding, learning for improvement
communication.
Our machine and solution concepts have
reached a secure design status for specific
market and customer requirements. For
mutual inspiration, we continually pursue
information between all market partners to
gain perspectives, understand trends and
fulfill customer desires to create a stronger
than ever influence on our product design.
Innovative thinking is thinking in terms of the customer

Quality and precision is
essential to our work.
Made in
Germany.
The think tank of the plastics industry
Germany continues to be the think tank of the plastics industry and
offers special advantages in regards to location. We make full use of
this. Our direct proximity to experts such as raw material suppliers,
electronics manufacturers and drive technology designers gives us
easy access to new application possibilities and future trends. It’s an
inspiring environment and one in which our teams of engineers have
already developed many innovative concepts and made them ready
for the market.
Zhafir Germany’s core business includes the further development of
the Mercury principle and the optimization of corporate technologies
also for all other Haitian brands, for example, the optimized toggle
system design for the new Haitian Mars II Series. Other focal points
are the series production, optimisations of assembly processes and
procedures, and, last but not least, fine-tuning of our machines in line
with market requirements and in accordance with EU standards and
customer needs.
Sustainable production and assembly
Our employees are highly skilled in production and assembly and
are a further guarantee of the premium quality of our products and
solutions. The various assemblies are manufactured in the 4,000 m²
manufacturing hall on the premises of Zhafir Plastics Machinery in
Ebermannsdorf from top-quality standard parts and components in
accordance with CE safety guidelines. Machines assembled on-site
are checked for compliance with the rigorous safety and quality
criteria that are customary in Germany, in close cooperation with
the responsible German test centers, such as the TÜV, the German
Technical Inspection Agency. Quality and performance are also the focus
in our 250 m² technology center, which serves as a ready contact point
close to the Global Players with its Headquarters in Europe. Here they
can see in detail for themselves the many different performance benefits
of our machines and technologies; aspects such as precision, energy
consumption, safety and ergonomics are regularly examined at the test
station. Upon request, the technology center is also available to our
sales partners for application support purposes.

EFFICIENT production for
quality and availability.
Made in
China.
Lean Production
Zhafir´s success in Ningbo is based on the carefully detailed
planning of structure and scheduling, in all areas of our plant.
In addition to this, we have also been able to rely on our highly
specialised management and the forty years of experience of
the whole Haitian Group.
At the same time, the combined use of innovative technologies,
lean organisation and highly motivated employees ensures
smooth performance right through all assembly and production
processes – and quality controls from A to Z are included. This
allows us to achieve a total production output of around 1,000
units per year, with a plant area of now some 18,000 m².
Short response times
Efficient robotics and sophisticated logistics are the keys to such
high productivity. Components, structural elements and important
small parts are not only centrally stored but are also kept
ready in side stores next to the assembly lines.
Increased efficiency and output
This guarantees continuously uninterrupted procurement of
materials throughout our modularised assembly. In addition,
the u-shaped design of our modern production lines increases
both efficiency and output. Not only does it shorten
transport routes in-house, but it gives us a high degree of
flexibility so that we can react very specifically and with unusual
speed to individual changes in our customers’ needs.
Last but not least, our comprehensive testing and control measures
at each stage of modular assembly guarantee excellent
quality and availability of the machines delivered. And, thanks
to efficiency in production, all of this is offered on attractive
terms.
