Japan's "3.11" earthquake, there have been various company parts, materials, tools, suppliers sent by fax or e-mail, or come in person to explain the situation, is a core topic: because the earthquake in Japan affected,glue stick the company could not deliver according to the normal schedule, request the user to forgive.
These are the factory directly affected by the disaster or an attack, such as Japan Carbon factory shutdown in the affected areas, the graphite can not be delivered on time; or interrupt the logistics, such as Artemis indemnity company itself is a trading company, no factories, no factory commissioned in the affected areas, but the logistics interrupted, the inventory in the East can not be shipped to Japan, Japan to the West; and even appeared in another class of problems, like the author's company uses a parts production in Canada, is now out of stock, trading companies, aspects The news that has landed at Narita airport, the parts are not customs clearance, because the airport was fully occupied with dealing with disaster relief supplies.glue gun Without even the transportation of parts made flights can not be found, resulting in the use of our products can only delay the delivery of parts.
Earthquake was in this influences the economy.
All core industries suffering.
Many earthquakes in Japan is a country, to live the same as in the cradle, we have not seriously. Japanese death toll in the eyes of the earthquake on the second digit be called a real earthquake. But the real major blow to the economy before the earthquake actually only the 1923 Great Kanto earthquake, with magnitude 7.3 in 1995 after the Great Hanshin Earthquake hit on the economy are not much, because Kobe was the only real disaster City. Osaka and Kobe is basically a "bed town" (Sleeping City), many residents work in Osaka. Kobe before the earthquake had a very large addition to the port outside the manufacturing sector is not a well-developed industrial city, have been hard hit in large enterprises only Kobe Steel.
And this earthquake is different from the first hit is huge scope of the above magnitude 5 have Aomori, Iwate, Miyagi, Akita, Yamagata, Fukushima, Ibaraki, Tochigi, Gunma, Saitama, Chiba, Tokyo, Kanagawa and Yamanashi, etc., account for almost a quarter the size of Japan's Honshu Island.
The direct attack on the Tokyo earthquake around the two major industrial regions: the Chiba City, Chiba Prefecture facing Tokyo Bay as the center of the "Keiyo industrial area" and from Tokyo to Yokohama, the so-called "Keihin Industrial Zone" extending from including Saitama, Gunma, Tochigi and Ibaraki Prefecture, "Kita-Kanto Industrial Region", these areas are Japan's iron and steel, chemical, petrochemical, automotive and semiconductor industries concentrated area, and these industries the products are Japan in the international market the most competitive part of it.
Manufacturing stop logistics disrupted.
Japan's chemical and steel materials industry has always been the world's leading industry, but this blows is quite large, Mitsubishi Chemical, Mitsui Chemicals, Shin-Etsu Chemical of these world-renowned chemical companies have at least two to three factories stopped workers, the steel industry iron Sumitomo Metal's Kashima included in all, including the production of both blast furnace stopped production of all of Nippon Steel's wire suspension, JEF Chiba factory fire.
Consumption of oil industrial zone is large, so that area of ??the oil companies refining facilities and storage facilities of various clouds, in addition to Cosmo refinery caught fire and exploded outside the company, Nippon Mining Nippon energy, Tonen General Petroleum, petrochemical and other Maruzen Japan's major oil companies have factories closed or subject to loss.
Earthquake hit the electronics and semiconductor industry is very objective, Renesas has seven factories in the affected area to stop all, a round silicon in Japan fell by half capacity, Sony continued in Miyagi Prefecture of more than a thousand factories manufacturing the tape stopped working, Murata three factories that area where all the work stoppage. Computer motherboard with aluminum disk is almost monopolized by Japanese production, Tochigi Prefecture, where Kobe Steel Moka Moka City Manufacturing accounted for 60% of world output, Nikko City, Tochigi Prefecture, Nikko the cause of Furukawa Electric accounted for the remaining 40%, and now the two factories and plants were damaged due to power outages and completely stopped production. Canon SLR digital camera and inkjet printer production base and Panasonic digital cameras are all in the region to stop production.
Not directly destroyed by the earthquake that part of production can not play. Because of their own destroyed in the earthquake resulted in logistics transportation network disruption, but also continue to use that part of the transport network during this time can not for the production and use, based on experience of the Kobe earthquake, highway transportation network will be concentrated in a few months with in the delivery of relief supplies. The author's company actually had a relationship from all the logistics company received can not schedule the east of Japan on notice of shipment, this confusion will continue to not know when.
