The life of passion lengthened by pump

Chairman Ahn Sang-gu of CW-Hydro called himself an engineer, not an executive.  
His enthusiasm for technology and his endless efforts have inspired him now.
I heard the story of him and CW-Hydro with the development of Korean industry.

Making the heart of the industry  
CW-Hydro Ahn Sang-Gu chose to read Thomas Edison's biography at the third grade of elementary school and to become a scientist or engineer. In order to achieve his dream, he graduated from Hanyang University, Department of Mechanical Engineering. He joined Icheon Electric Industrial Co., Ltd., the former head of Toshiba Corporation in Japan, where he received design technology from the only pump designer in Korea. In 1967, he quit his career at the age of 29 and founded his own company with friends. Since then he has lived as a pump engineer for a lifetime. A half century has passed since Chairman An Sang-Gu founded CW-Hydro. It is time to share the history of industrial development in Korea. In fact, Chairman Ahn Sang-Gu has pierced through the period of Korean industry's development, development, upsurge and re-leap. In the early days of CW-industry, we produced burners for heavy oil combustion for pumps and boilers. In 1968, a year later, POSCO was able to design and produce dredging pumps for landfill sites. It was a pump of only one size. Since then, CW-Hydro has continued its relationship with POSCO. In the 1970s, the heart pump was the main force of the Cheongwoo industry . "At that time, it was an agricultural society. It was a difficult time for me to eat a meal when it was cold and the famine came. At that time, the government supplied water pumps . Our company has made several thousand. The problem was that the pump was only able to suck out underground water 7 to 8 meters deep. I had to stop working at the rice fields and factories because I had to use deeper groundwater . But I had a patent for a heart pump. It was a pump that pumped water down 10 meters. The pump was doing quite a lot of work. "And a lot of apartments were built to solve the urban housing crisis . Buildings, government offices, and large-scale factories also came on the scene. Everything needed a pump. It was a boom of the pump, but the pump that was easy to make had the disadvantage that it was as easy as the clone. When the original technology was designed and produced, it did not work. Therefore, Chungwoo Industry, which had original technology , changed its direction from producing general pumps to producing special pumps used in power plants, steel mills, chemical plants, oil refineries and paper mills. Unlike normal 10-year cycle pumps for nuclear power plants with more than 40-year cycle into it was also produces pumps. Until then, all of the products were imported from abroad. The know-how accumulated and exported to foreign countries began. At that time, we made an agreement with Hydro in the US and changed our mission to CW-Hydro . Sometimes Sometimes himsseun the development of the right rinara as a descriptor as executive ansanggu long passion and commitment of the President he was awarded Bronze Tower Order of Industrial Service Merit and the New Korea impression, Value Innovation Award, Best Quality Certification Award of President awards such as Best Domestic machine development phase, such as Secretary of State Only the prime minister can know. Not only that, I received many awards, such as exemplary SMEs, engineers, and proud SMEs . "The criteria for judging success are mind and body. I think there are three aspects of wealth. Knowledge and wisdom. We have to have spiritual aspects like personality to succeed. Then the health. The last thing is wealth. " Live with passion "The pump is the heart. If the pump does not move, the country will have to die. "Listening to the time he passed, he was able to fully understand the praise of President Ahn Sang-Gu for the pump . These pumps are used in a variety of industries, but large companies can not easily jump in. From a business standpoint, the efficiency and effectiveness of pumps are significantly reduced. No matter how large or diverse the order amount is to the tank trillion won, it is difficult to develop and produce individual pumps for each situation, and it is difficult for a large amount of orders to be continuous. In the case of companies, purchasing cheap materials and making them in a short time makes the greatest profit, but you should not approach the pump in such a way . "Each pump is a creative product. Even if you make one, you have to consider all the thousands of factors . I do not have the same product . Because each use differs, contents which are demanded in material and technical are different. So, we have the know-how accumulated by all the personnel from sales to development and production for a long time. I have to. Similarly, managers need to have experience and practical knowledge. " Therefore, CW-Hydro has many employees who have been in service for more than 10 years . The relationship between the company and its employees is quite deep. In 2007, labor union declarations were made. The technology we have accumulated with our employees, sometimes at a loss, has helped us grow into a world-class pump manufacturer that produces in a short period of time while maintaining exceptional quality . Ahn Sang-Gu has now stepped down to some extent from the management front, but is still involved in technology development . As a result, several patents have recently been wwwd. And he brought out the word 'Win-won'. It means that the sellers and the buyers must have the benefit of each other to be sustainable. '' The engineer is accomplished . The fun of making money is greater than the fun of earning money . I've read Edison 's biography and it' s been a while now. People can not be all - powerful. Sometimes I come to the trouble. If you are not disappointed and develop your passion for what you do well, you will find happiness . Trouble i
