Shandong Hwapeng Precision Machinery Co., Ltd. creates new competitive advantages through technological innovation and achieves antitrust orders until latter half of the year

According to a report released on January 3, 2025, by reporters Liu Fei and Zhang Yalin from the Laishan District Media Center, Laishan District company Hwapeng Precision Machinery Co., Ltd.(Hereinafter referred to as “HWAPENG”)is targeting key technologies and creating new competitive advantages through technological innovation. The company is receiving strong orders and is busy with production.

For any enterprise, innovation is an inexhaustible driving force for development. HWAPENG is located in Laishan District and is positioned as a complete set of core equipment and digital technology service provider for the production of new energy materials. Over the years, it has seized opportunities such as national industrial upgrading and high-end value chain transfer, targeted key technologies, and broken the foreign technology monopoly through strategic drive and product innovation. It not only occupies a leading position in China but also sells well in many countries and regions around the world, showing a strong development trend and innovative vitality.

Research and development innovation is the lifeline for manufacturing enterprises to achieve long-term development. Since its establishment, HWAPENG has closely followed and grasped the changes in the forefront of science and technology, insisted on keeping the initiative of innovation and development firmly in its own hands and created new advantages in the pursuit of innovation and change. At present, its users are all over the country, including domestic enterprises such as CHALCO, SINOSTEEL, State Power Investment Corporation(SPIC), and international enterprises such as POSCO, MITSUBISHI, and SHOWA DENKO. In the view of Wang Yi, chairman of HWAPENG, independent innovation is the key to today’s achievements. “HWAPENG has established an independent product research and development center to continuously develop new products, improve and enhance product performance, so that our products always maintain the leading level at home and abroad. We have strong technical strength, advanced manufacturing technology, modern production equipment, complete test equipment, and scientific testing methods to ensure the high level and stability of product quality.” Wang Yi said.

Along the way, HWAPENG has won half of the industry with its “Specialization, refinement, distinctiveness, and novelty” and secured a stable domestic market share. “In 2024, our orders will increase by about 50% year-on-year, and existing orders have been scheduled until the second half of 2025,” said Sun Liqun, Production V.P. of HWAPENG.

Entering the production workshop of HWAPENG, all production lines are running at high speed, forklifts and loaders are transporting parts back and forth, and the flying iron flowers, the roar of machines, and the busy figures of workers outline a vivid scene of the company racing against time to seize production.

In the workshop, the most eye-catching thing is HWAPENG’s “main product” – the preheating kneading and cooling system. Sun Liqun introduced that this system was independently developed by HWAPENG. It uses a number of patented technologies to achieve high-temperature preheating, kneading, and low-temperature kneading cooling of materials. It is a key equipment for the kneading process that meets the international advanced carbon production process. Its performance has reached the international leading level, replacing imported products, and is the only dual-temperature kneading system in China.

The reason why the products are so popular in the market is inseparable from the company’s emphasis on research and development. In terms of independent innovation and research and development, HWAPENG has vigorously developed advanced technologies in the industry to create value for users in order to achieve the goal of “replacing imports domestically and reaching advanced levels internationally”. After years of hard work, HWAPENG’s high efficient preheating kneading and cooling system has completely replaced German products; the HP-EVC1500 Series Airbag Pressurization Vacuum Vibration Forming Machine used in new energy vehicles has replaced foreign brands; the artificial intelligence carbon block cleaning system has broken the market monopoly of many countries… One after another, the “stuck neck” technologies have been broken, which not only makes HWAPENG full of confidence in the fierce market competition, but also makes Chairman Wang Yi and all employees of HWAPENG feel excited, and more determined to continue on the road of independent innovation. “Users’ demand for industrial products is to improve production efficiency and reduce production costs. We must continue to work hard to develop more products that surpass the advanced level of foreign countries in terms of production efficiency, product performance, and quality, and show HWAPENG’s technology and strength to customers at domestic and abroad.” Wang Yi said. At present, the company has presided over the formulation of two national industry standards, owns 77 intellectual property rights of various types, and has R&D platforms such as Shandong Enterprise Technology Center and Shandong “One Enterprise One Technology” R&D Center. It has been selected as a national key “Little Giant” enterprise.

“We will invest more energy this year to actively, steadily, scientifically, and orderly develop advanced products and technologies, enrich product categories, optimize product structure, and strive to realize the digitization and intelligence of complete sets of large-scale equipment, so as to contribute to the green, environmental protection and safety of the carbon material industry.” Wang Yi said that through the busy reality, exploring the development history of HWAPENG, it will be found that in recent years, the company is accelerating the forward-looking layout and making every effort to seize the commanding heights of future competition in related industries, and the tone of innovation and change is more obvious. It can be seen that by finding the right development path, high-growth enterprises can also be born in traditional manufacturing industries, and the output value can be “doubled”.
