Metal scourer is a kind of tool for cleaning which has Non-chemical, non-bacterial-reproduction, non-pollution, and can be reused a great many times. It is widely applied in family, hotel, school, office, factory and other places. It has become a necessary appliance in daily life, machine industry, chemical industry, medical treatment, sanitation, construction and other fields. Its special cleaning function is very effective for floor, table-board, wall, metal, porcelain, glass and other surfaces. Metal scourer has a lot of varieties of uses, low cost and immense market demand. It isn't much to look at but brings the tremendous business opportunities.

   ·Take one 6-wires treble scourers making machine for example, which the output is 150 KGS a day.
* Cost of raw material(stainless steel wire):
150KGS × RMB13.5/KG==RMB2025.00
(Note: It’s priced in Nov 2008, the raw material cost is fluctuating in the market)
* Cost of manufacturing: RMB750.00
RMB750.00 includes the daily expenses of comprehensive water use, power consumption, house rent, taxation, labour cost of scourer making, packaging material cost, labour cost of packaging, machine depreciation expense and its maintenance, raw material consumption and waste, etc.
In order to safeguard our interests and the legitimate rights of our valued customers, to avoid the illegal copying and other forms of piracy, the cost estimation of detailed lists as above is inconvenient to be made public. You're very welcome to acquire more information at our factory when you visit us.
Total cost: RMB2025.00+RMB750.00=RMB2775.00

Profit:
Take a 15g scourer for example.
150KGS=150,000GRAM
150,000G/15G=10,000 unit scourers
Ex-work factory price: RMB0.027/Gram (General quotation in China in year 2008)
RMB0.027/g × 15g=RMB0.40/unit
RMB0.40×10,000units(one day output)=RMB4000.00
Daily profit: RMB4000.00-RMB2775.00=RMB1225.00
Monthly profit: RMB1225.00 × 30days=RMB36,750.00

Investment requirements:

* Plant area: one set machine/8 m2

* Each shift of labour: one operator for 1 machine; 1-2 workers for finished scourer packaging.

* Invested funds of equipments: Depends on different machines you selected.

* Cash flow:RMB9000.00

* Power supply: 220V/380V, power consumption depends on different machines you selected.

1. Invested fund of Packaging:

A. Fee of printing film of Packaging bag: RMB200.00/colour
    × 4(4 colours) = RMB800.00 (in one design)

B. Fee of PP packaging bag: RMB0.035 ~ RMB0.065/PC
    × 20,000 PCS bags= Approx RMB1000.00

C. Fee of carton: RMB3.50/PC × 200PCS CTNS = RMB700.00

2. Raw Material Fund:

Diameter 0.13mm galvanized wire: Appr. RMB13.50/KG
    × 200KGS = RMB2700.00

Diameter 0.13mm stainless steel wire: Appr. RMB8.00/KG
    × 200KGS = RMB1600.00

Purchase above two kinds of raw materials according to the market quotation, take 200kgs for example in here, you would calculate your actual material KGS to start with.

3. Reserve Funds: Appr. RMB2000.00

I. What are the characteristics of the scourer item?
Answer: Comparing with other industries, the scourer item has three obvious characteristics:
1. The product cannot change the quality, surpass the guarantee period, or be devalued. It hasn’t fashion period as clothing, or shelf life as food.
2. It belongs to daily expendable, so it has broad sales area and the demand is great.
3. The investment of carving out is less. If you buy one set of equipment and some raw materials, you can produce at home. The profits are huge and can afford your family.

II. Where are the scourers sold?
Answer: General merchandise and small commodity wholesale market, hardware building material s market, hotel, restaurant, supermarket, food market, subsidiary food and daily-use articles store, the group order for the welfare of administrations, enterprises and institutions, the eatery of schools, cleaning company and vehicle maintenance, etc.

III. Is a drawbench necessary for the scourer making machine?
Answer: If the production and sales volume of scourers is about 6 ton/month, the drawbench will be not necessary. Because in the beginning of carving out, your production and sales volume is not high, and the market and source of clients are not stable, id you invest too much on the drawbench, the risk will be increased. If you have a scourer making machine, you only need to buy the wire with diameter of 0.13mm to produce.

IV. Can the product been sold exclusively and recalled?
Answer: The exclusive sales and recall of the product is not possible at all. We can tell you: The person who promises it must be a cheat! Some agencies of scourer making machine in Beijing and other areas cheated many clients ago.

V. Is the machine combined pulling wires with producing scourers possible?
Answer: The foolish activity was performed by us before 1995.

VI. Why can you keep continuous and high-speed production with the speed of 1600 revs by 6 wires and the scourers’ reeds cannot be distorted, while other manufacturers’ scourer making machines only has 3 wires, and ex is only about 1000 revs only by 3 wires and wire clipping, wire breaking and the scourers’ reeds with distortion takes place while their speed reaches to about 1000 revs.

Answer: 1. The precision of the scourer making machine is very important. To guarantee the precision, for the material selection, processing and heat treatment techniques, we have researched some key technologies together with the heat treatment staff room in Huazhong University of Science & Technology. The floating tolerance should be controlled well to prevent the machine from breaking itself based on guaranteeing the precision. When you buy the scourer making machine from manufacturer, the on-site speed may be 1200 revs, which is not bad. But several days later, the parameters of the scourer making machine change completely, which due to the precision’s failure. Then the scourer making machine has begun to break itself.

2. For the transmission and conveying speed ratio system of the scourer making machine, we test and calculate in high, middle and low stages, and then debug and finalize the design according to relevant data. The process is very important for the whole machine to stably run and continuously and fast produce.

3. We take strict measures to guarantee working stability for the collocation and selection of electrical components. Even if an unsuitable component belongs to famous brand, it cannot be applied. Other non-specialized manufacturers or workshops do not produce as the above three points at all. Therefore, none of their scourer making machines meets the requirements in precision, material heat treatment, installation tolerance, transmission and conveying speed ratio and the collocation of electrical components, etc. In terms of our years of experience in modifying their scourer making machines, we think they are not aware of the standard or even the basic knowledge about operation security. They install the console at the lower left of the equipment’s facade, but a worker must operate it on the equipment’s right, so it is far for the worker to operate the console, and many security accidents are caused by it (See the picture). At present, some manufacturers have begun imitating us to improve their products.

4. The production of scourer making machines is closely related to the industrial basis and technological level in the local area. For instance, some special components need to be manufactured by external cooperation with special equipment. We possess such a manufacturing environment in Hanyang-Wuahan, where the industry is flourishing.

To sum up, we disregard some costs to produce the most professional and high-quality scourer making machine in China. We believe good manufacturing equipments can bring super market competitiveness! Comparing with common scourer making machines with less-known brand, our products can save the material consumption by over 20,000Yuan/year.
