18 months ago Hubei Dinglong Chemical Co., Ltd. formed an associate company, Dinglong New Materials Co., Ltd., based in Zhuhai. Dinglong New Materials Co., Ltd. was formed to research, develop, and manufacture developer rollers and PCRs for color printers.
This new 4,000sqm facility has a total equipment investment of US$20 million, and has state-of-the-art vulcanizing, extruding, grinding and coating machinery that allows for OEM quality rollers to be produced. The complete process is managed and controlled in this new facility that has a capacity of in excess of three million rollers per month.
The product lines to be covered are HP, Brother, and Samsung color models. All rollers are made to OEM specification and are designed to be a “drop-in replacement Item.”
Ian Copsey, European general manager, commented: “We see in certain models now that the OEMs are effectively engineering obsolescence into certain cartridge components. This means in some lines after the OEM first cycle it becomes challenging to get enough good quality virgin empty cartridges due to damage or degradation of developer rollers or PCRs. Hubei Dinglong as a chemical toner producer expects the OEMs to reduce the after-life effectiveness of their products: as a toner manufacturer it is critical we can limit this future impact.”
