China's competitive advantage in construction machinery continues to strengthen, with wheeled cranes breaking world records seven times - capable of lifting 230 tons of goods to a height of 170 meters
2024-05-29
Refresh records. In March of this year, XCMG XCA4000 wheeled crane completed its first lift in Hengshui, Hebei, successfully lifting a 120 ton engine room, a 95 meter long, 28 ton fan blade, to an altitude of 162 meters. The crane can lift 230 tons of goods to a height of 170 meters, breaking the world's record for the largest wheeled crane for the seventh time by XCMG. Orders keep coming in. At the 2024 Paris International Engineering Machinery and Building Materials Machinery Expo in France, Zoomlion Intelligent High tech Machinery received over 130 million yuan in orders. All electric scissor type, straight arm type... Zoomlion's high-altitude operation platforms are exported to more than 90 countries and regions. "The construction machinery industry is in a critical period of accelerating the transformation and upgrading of new and old kinetic energy." Su Zimeng, President of China Construction Machinery Industry Association, said. Moving towards high-end and improving product quality. Not long ago, the Zhangjinggao Yangtze River Bridge and the north main tower work area of the South Channel Bridge were successfully inspected with a 15000 ton tower crane. The tower crane has a maximum lifting height of 400 meters and a maximum lifting capacity of 600 tons, equipped with 10 world leading technologies. The design standard for a lifting torque of 15000 tons per meter means that the task of lifting 300 cars at once can be easily completed within a working range of 25 meters. "The Zhangjinggao Yangtze River Bridge is the world's largest span suspension bridge, and the construction of the north main tower of its 350 meter high South Channel Bridge will be completed by this' giant's arm '." The relevant person in charge of China Railway Bridge Bureau said. Su Zimeng introduced that since last year, against the backdrop of cyclical challenges faced by the industry as a whole, sales of high-end equipment have achieved a counter trend growth. The sales of major technical equipment such as large excavators, large tonnage cranes, large tonnage mining dump trucks, large-diameter shield tunneling machines, large pile construction machinery, and high meter arm lifting operation platforms have shown a structural growth. Moving towards intelligence and empowering high-quality development in the industry. In February of this year, relying on Beidou navigation positioning technology, XCMG's digital intelligent construction cluster completed unmanned pavement paving on the Chongqing Hunan double line expressway, with unmanned pavers and double steel wheel rollers paving side by side. The technology has broken through the limitations of traditional construction methods, achieving all-weather continuous construction, greatly improving construction quality, reducing operating costs, and ensuring construction safety. The "Lighthouse Factory" of Sany Piling Machine utilizes human-machine collaboration, artificial intelligence, and Internet of Things technology to increase labor productivity by 85% and reduce production cycles by 77%; "Digital technology has penetrated into the construction machinery industry at multiple levels, and many enterprises have been included in the list of excellent scenarios for digital workshops, intelligent factories, and intelligent manufacturing. New progress has been made in digital transformation and intelligent upgrading," said Su Zimeng. Moving towards greenery and gradually forming competitive advantages. In 2023, the sales of electric loaders increased by 210% year-on-year; In the first quarter of this year, 1354 electric loaders were sold, exceeding the sales in the first half of last year, and the market penetration rate jumped to 5.1%. Su Zimeng stated that electric construction machinery is gradually forming a competitive advantage of good adaptability to working conditions, zero exhaust emissions, low noise, high reliability, easy maintenance, and high efficiency. Data shows that last year, China's engineering machinery exports amounted to 48.552 billion US dollars, a year-on-year increase of 9.59%. In the first quarter of this year, the export value of construction machinery in China reached 12.007 billion US dollars, a year-on-year increase of 2.6%. With the continuous acceleration of enterprise internationalization, the global marketing service network is becoming more sound, traditional markets are further stabilizing, emerging markets are growing rapidly, and China's competitive advantage in the international market of construction machinery continues to improve. "Looking ahead to the whole year, with the gradual effectiveness of policies and the steady improvement of the market environment, the overall domestic market demand will be better than last year," said Su Zimeng.
