From September 12 to 14, the 2024 High-Tech Shipbuilding and Offshore Equipment National Advanced Manufacturing Industry Cluster Development Conference and Shipbuilding Offshore Industry Exhibition opened at the Nantong International Conference Center. HGTECH showcased its overall intelligent manufacturing solutions for the shipbuilding industry, demonstrating its strength in integrating software systems with hardware equipment. At the same time, HGTECH was invited to attend the Second Shipbuilding Industry Digital Transformation Forum, where Chairman Ma delivered a special report on “Construction Ideas and Practices for Intelligent Shipyards.”
Recognized as a Strong Chain Brand in the Shipbuilding Industry: Upgrading Intelligent Manufacturing for Quality Enhancement
The conference announced the 2024 Strong Chain Brands in China’s Shipbuilding Industry, with representatives from HGTECH and five other brand enterprises taking the stage. Since the launch of the Strong Chain Brand selection process last year, HGTECH’s “Intelligent Cutting and Blank Cutting Line” and “Intelligent Assembly and Welding Production Line” were reviewed and recognized by an expert team from the China Shipbuilding Industry Association, earning a place in the Strong Chain Brand product directory. This signifies that the products have strong commercialization performance, occupy a certain market share in specific markets, and possess core independent intellectual property rights.
Leading Intelligent Innovation in Shipbuilding with Smart Technologies to Reshape New Productive Forces
At the exhibition, HGTECH showcased its comprehensive solutions and implementation cases for the shipbuilding industry, attracting many professionals to visit. As a leading supplier of intelligent manufacturing system solutions in China, HGTECH addresses the pain points of the shipbuilding industry by independently developing intelligent manufacturing equipment for hull components, including high-end laser cutting equipment, laser cleaning equipment, comprehensive line marking machines, and laser hybrid welding equipment. It also offers flexible intelligent material preparation and welding lines, as well as digital products like visual sorting and digital twins.
Empowering Digital Transformation for Shipbuilding Enterprises with Full-Process Digital Control
During the exhibition, HGTECH was invited to attend the Shipbuilding Industry Digital Transformation Development Forum and presented a report on “Ideas and Practices for Constructing Intelligent Shipyards,” discussing new technologies and achievements in the digital transformation of the shipbuilding industry.
The presentation delved into the pain points in the cutting, welding, painting, and outfitting stages of the shipbuilding industry, drawing on HGTECH’s extensive experience and innovative practices in equipment intelligence, production line automation, and smart factories. By focusing on self-developed equipment and software, HGTECH provides an intelligent manufacturing overall solution for shipbuilding clients, covering everything from raw material yards, preprocessing, cutting, and sorting to the welding of small, medium, and large components and in-factory logistics.
Currently, HGTECH has established a full-process digital control system for shipbuilding enterprises through its three core self-developed products: “Zhu Shi” (Visual Sorting System), “Zhu Long” (Manufacturing Operation Management Platform), and “Zhu Meng” (Digital Twin Platform). This system enables coordinated operations across the entire process, allowing shipyards to perceive, think, decide, and execute like humans, continuously adding vitality to high-quality corporate development.
