Chinese company donates automatic mask production lines to Pakistan

One of the leading Chinese high-tech companies, Xuzhou Xunyike System Technology, specializing in integrated solutions for intelligent manufacturing, has donated a couple of automatic intelligent mask production lines to help Pakistan build the mask industry. 

The production line, routed through the Pakistan Embassy in Beijing, has the capacity for fully automatic production. Each machine can produce 100,000 masks per day, according to Qin Ping, General Manager of Xunyike, located in Xiangcheng District of Suzhou. It can also ensure remote data collection, debugging and maintenance services by giving operating instructions in Suzhou. 

“There is no mask industry in Pakistan, so we are donating the production lines to help Pakistan build the mask industry,” Qin Ping was quoted as saying during his interview with the Economic Daily-China Economic Net. 

“When the Hubei epidemic broke out, we donated some masks to Hubei province. Later, outbreaks in foreign countries began to occur in large areas. We also wanted to donate some masks at the beginning. However, our company did not originally produce masks. It was difficult to buy masks at that time. We decided to donate a mask production line,” he added. 

“Pakistan is closer to us and one of the countries with better relations. Considering the opportunity to do some communication in the future, I chose to donate to Pakistan,” Qin Ping disclosed. 

“We initially considered donating a complete, fully automatic (mask production line), but considering that Pakistan itself does not have a mask industry, we later handed over relatively easy-to-operate semi-automatic equipment, at least to ensure that export masks can be produced immediately,” he explained.
