Our people: Nancy Xue
As a project engineer for tools at MAPAL China in Shanghai, Nancy Xue is making her way in what is supposedly a male domain.
The Chinese site requires intelligent solutions for the growing requirements in terms of tool inventory, warehouse optimisation and tool management. Project Engineer Nancy Xue specialises in tool manufacturing. What inspires her about her employer is the drive towards constant improvement, but also the interpersonal aspect.
“I am responsible for designing the tools and calculating the prices”, Nancy Xue says, describing her area of activity at MAPAL China Ltd.
In addition to the sales company, MAPAL also has a large production company in Shanghai that specialises in PCD tools, solid carbide tools and indexable inserts. Nineteen sales offices in strategically important metropolitan areas ensure short response times in terms of customer support, sales and service.
MAPAL is the first professional stop for the engineering graduate, who joined the company in 2012 and has been able to gain experience in sales and purchasing along the way. Today she is an experienced project engineer in the Technology Expert Team. “As a project engineer, my first priority is to meet the demands of the fast-growing Chinese market. I deal with how we can implement the machining of a complete workpiece for our customers and optimise the accuracy of machining.”
订单的完成只是战斗的一半
自由的发展
在MAPAL 集团内部，对员工的再教育是一项非常重要的工作。集团会定期举办针对不同技术、不同部门和不同工件加工的培训课程，通过这些丰富的课程积极向员工传授各种应用知识。这些课程内容不仅设置合理，同时大部分内容是基于最新的技术研究成果和当前的客户需求而制定的。"如果针对员工不进行进一步的技术技能培训，那么员工的个人技术技能水平就会止步不前。因此，我觉得公司提供这样的培训非常有意义。这些培训让我提高了专业水平，有效地推动了我在专业上取得了长足的进步，" Nancy说。
