Pipeline industry faces vicious competition as a result of low entry barrier and relatively simple manufacturing technology. This paper provides a PI based water pipe fittings product development solution. The design has been adopted by ZHEJIANG ZHUJI NANXIN PIPELINE, and the trial-manufacture gains a good market acceptance and success.
