Hunan Construction Machinery Sings the Main Theme of National Equipment Industry

On March 19, at the request of Tokyo Electric Power Co., Ltd., Hunan Sany Heavy Industry Co., Ltd., a million-million-dollar 62-meter jib pump truck, rescued the Japanese earthquake scene and helped Fukushima nuclear emergency rescue. He has already arrived in Chiba Prefecture, Japan, to participate in field training for rescue workers. This is the second time that the construction machinery industry represented by Sany Heavy Industry has supported the international influence after the Chilean mine rescue.

Behind this international influence is the sustained and rapid development of the construction machinery industry in Hunan. In 2010, the total output value of Hunan's construction machinery accounted for 25.79% of the nation's construction machinery industry. 62 enterprises above designated size in the province had completed industrial output value of 113.3 billion yuan, industrial added value of 36.2 billion yuan, main business income of 108.4 billion yuan, and profit of 14.6 billion. Yuan is 13 times, 12 times, 14 times and 21 times respectively in 2005. Construction machinery has become the first “100 billion sub-industry” in Hunan, and Changsha has also become the first 100 billion industrial cluster in the national construction machinery industry. To create this kind of international influence is the development road of Hunan's construction machinery industry supported by high and new technology in recent years, agglomeration and development as a link, and open development as an auxiliary force to sing the national music equipment industry's independent innovation and work hard to develop the main theme.

The first is to adhere to the path of innovation and development . Over the years, Hunan Construction Machinery has always adhered to the road of independent innovation. The provincial party committee and the provincial government successively took out more than 1 billion yuan of innovation funds to support enterprises in key technological innovations and issued a series of supportive policies to support enterprises in carrying out independent innovation in an all-round way. Zoomlion, Sany Heavy Industry, and Sanhe Intelligent have all been known for producing high-end, unique technology and alternative imported construction machinery. Among them, Zoomlion's industry technology coverage rate exceeds 75%, and Sany Group has authorized effective patents. 892 items and nearly 100 core technologies. The R&D value of three companies (R&D investment as a percentage of sales revenue) has remained above 5%, and individual companies have reached 9% when they are high. In the industry, four state-level enterprise technology centers have been built, including China United, Sany, Shanhe, and Jiangyan. There are also six provincial-level enterprise technology centers and seven postdoctoral workstations. The powerful R&D strength has enabled the company to generate strong vitality in the fierce market competition, and has continuously pushed the development of concrete pump, concrete pump truck, crawler crane and other products to the highest level in the world. Concrete pump and pump products successfully recovered 95% of the Chinese market that was once occupied by foreign brands. At the same time, it has made great achievements in many fields such as concrete machinery, earth-moving machinery, piling machinery, and construction cranes. In 2010, Hunan produced 47,800 sets of concrete machinery. Changsha has become the largest concrete machinery production base in the world without any dispute. Sany Heavy Industry's output of excavators exceeded 12,000 units, making it the first brand of a truly national excavator. 1000 tons of all-terrain cranes and 1,600 tons of crawler cranes represent the leading level in the industry. In the field of piling machinery, Hunan Construction Machinery has always played the role of "lead dancer". Rotary drilling rigs and hydraulic static pile drivers have an absolute advantage in China. In addition, in the areas of construction cranes, road construction machinery, municipal and environmental sanitation machinery, mines and rock drilling machinery, and port machinery, Hunan’s R&D and production capabilities are constantly increasing.

The second is to stick to the agglomeration development . Hunan Construction Machinery is mainly concentrated in Changsha. It mainly produces 12 major categories, more than 100 subcategories and more than 400 model specifications. The product varieties account for 70% of the country's engineering machinery varieties. It is the largest production base of China's construction machinery. Zoomlion, Sany Heavy Industry and Shanhe Intelligent also listed the three listed companies in the construction machinery industry in Changsha, forming a unique and spectacular sight in China's construction machinery industry. The market value of Sany Heavy Industry exceeded 100 billion yuan for the first time in September 2010 and became the first hundred billion shares in China's construction machinery industry. At present, the total market capitalization of Sany Heavy Industry, Zoomlion, and Shanhe Intelligent has nearly reached RMB 250 billion, which is far more than half of the total market value of listed companies in China's construction machinery industry. The advantageous trend of Hunan's construction machinery industry's agglomeration development is mainly due to the fact that the Hunan provincial party committee and government have accelerated the promotion of new-type industrialization and increased the policy guidance and support for the construction machinery industry. In 2007, Hunan Provincial Party Committee and Provincial Government listed the construction machinery industry as one of the 14 key supporting and advantageous industries, and issued the Local Industrial Policy “Opinions of Hunan Provincial People's Government on Accelerating the Development of Construction Machinery Industry”. Actively guide the accumulation of production factors through industrial policies and industrial planning, and support the reorganization of assets of related companies, such as Zhonglian's reorganization of Pu'er, Huji, Huqiao, and Sany's reorganization of Hushui, etc., which will open up low-cost expansion paths for leading enterprises. At the same time, increase local financial support for the construction machinery industry, accelerate the construction of relevant basic industries and public facilities in the construction machinery cluster area, and strive to create an environment for the development of industrial clusters. Seventy percent of all types of guiding funds in the province are invested in the top ten industrial clusters represented by advanced equipment manufacturing industries, attracting hundreds of billions of funds from the society to these advantageous industrial clusters, effectively promoting the rapid and efficient development of the industry.

The third is to stick to the road of open development. With the strong support of the Hunan Provincial Party Committee and the provincial government, the construction machinery industry in Hunan is based on two international and domestic markets and two types of resources, accelerating the pace of mergers and reorganizations and going global, and the level of internationalization continues to increase. In 2008, Zoomlion took the Italian CIFA company, one of the world's top three concrete machinery companies, under its own banner and became the largest manufacturer of concrete machinery. The first-generation ZOOMLION-CIFA composite technology concrete pump truck launched in February this year boasts five key technologies such as the six-arm technology of the long arm rack pump truck that is the first in the industry. Sany Heavy Industry has successively invested in the establishment of four R&D and manufacturing bases for overseas construction machinery in India, the United States, Germany, and Brazil, and vigorously promoted a localized internationalization strategy. The company's business covers 150 countries and its products are exported to more than 110 countries and regions. .
