On November 6th, in the Xuzhou Economic and Technological Development Zone, the construction and maintenance machinery manufacturing base of the Xuzhou Economic and Technological Development Zone represented the world's highest level of compaction, and the XS365 XC365 road roller slowly exited the assembly line. With more than 20 independent patented technologies, XS365 is the masterpiece of Xugong's large-tonnage road roller in recent years. The precision control far exceeds the industry average, and the design life of the vibrating wheel is up to 10,000 hours. Su Zimeng, vice president and secretary general of China Construction Machinery Association, believes that the mass delivery of this product marks the first phalanx of China's compaction machinery manufacturing from quantity, technology to quality.
Building maintenance machinery is a traditional advantage industry of XCMG. In the 70 years of development, from the initial market-changing technology to leading independent innovation of Chinese enterprises, XCMG successfully seized the opportunity of China's transportation industry development, leading, reliable and core. The products of technology lead the Chinese construction and maintenance machinery enterprises to grow step by step, to be better and stronger, and to serve the whole world. Xugong Road has become the world's fourth, China's number one and the world's leading industry leader in complete sets.
From the analysis of production and sales data in the first three quarters of 2018, the sales of the construction machinery market remained unabated, and some products still maintained a substantial increase. In the field of construction machinery, building maintenance machinery belongs to a category with a wide variety of products, high technical requirements and distinctive professional features. The road roller is the most important product. As a single champion product evaluated by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, Xugong Road Roller has created a number of firsts in China's transportation construction equipment. The sales volume has led the industry for 31 consecutive years, and the domestic market share is close to 30%. In the 1990s, Xugong Baitai road roller was exported to the United States in batches, setting the first time for China's construction machinery to enter the global high-end market. Today, it is exported to more than 150 countries and regions around the world. Xugong's large tonnage roller has the world's largest sales volume.
Zhou Xianyu, president of the Pavement and Compaction Branch of the China Construction Machinery Association, who attended the off-line ceremony, was as full of respect and touch as 34 years ago. He said that the factory name of Xugong Road was called Xuzhou Construction Machinery Manufacturing Factory, which is directly under the Ministry of Construction and is responsible for the R&D and production of road rollers. In order to meet the growing needs of the country and the people, Xugong sent people to Europe to actively introduce technology and absorb the research and development experience of roller compactors in Germany and Sweden. After arduous efforts in the day and night, in 1984, the CA25 heavy-duty road roller with complete independent property rights in China was successfully developed. China's first expressway, Shenda Expressway, was also built in 1984. The type of road roller produced by Xugong was immediately put to use, which made a great contribution to the smooth passage of Shenda Expressway. At that time, Zhou Xianyu worked in the Harbin University of Architecture, which belongs to the Ministry of Construction, and participated in part of the research on the road roller. He also had the honor to participate in the event that year.
Since 1960, China’s first steam-type road roller was off the assembly line of Xugong, Xugong relied on the “one-strength†spirit in the field of construction machinery and the gold standard of “technology is never to be destroyedâ€. XCMG road roller has already been in R&D and manufacturing. With its own characteristics, it has formed five series of single-roller wheels, double-steel wheels, tires, static mills and light-weight products. The market performance has remained the first for many years. Not long ago, the world's largest circular vibratory roller XS395's downline marked the beginning of the Xugong roller has become a first-class brand internationally.
Yang Dongsheng, general manager of Xugong Group, told reporters that relying on Xugong National Technology Center, two provincial R&D centers, and two R&D centers in Europe and America, Xugong Road Machinery Division will continue to adhere to the strategy of innovation and “two integrationâ€, facing the world. In the future, we will develop more high-quality compaction machinery products with independent intellectual property rights, and make new and greater contributions to the new era of China's building maintenance machinery industry.
