On October 24, 2024, Guo Chuanxin, Secretary General of the Pile Machinery Branch of the Chinese Society of Engineering Machinery, and Sun Hongwei, Vice Chairman of the Beijing Society of Civil Engineering and Architecture and Deputy Chief Engineer of the Beijing Institute of Architectural Design and Research, were invited to visit Yutong Heavy Industry for on-site inspection of electric rotary drilling rigs. Guo Xudong, Chairman and General Manager of Yutong Heavy Equipment Co., Ltd., warmly welcomed the visiting delegation.
Visit Details
The on-site inspection visit brought together leading figures from China's engineering machinery industry association and civil engineering community to examine Yutong's electric rotary drilling rig technology firsthand. The delegation observed the equipment in operation and reviewed Yutong's manufacturing and testing facilities. Chairman Guo Xudong personally hosted the visit, underscoring the importance Yutong places on its relationships with industry associations and academic institutions.
Technical Discussion
During the communication session, Mr. Sun Hongwei pointed out that in the construction of urban subways and buildings, pile driving machinery is an important component with large quantities, significant emissions, and pollution problems that cannot be ignored. He noted that Yutong Heavy Industries has taken the lead in launching electric rotary drills, which significantly reduce carbon emissions and provide a practical and feasible solution for the dual carbon work of the construction industry in Beijing. This recognition from a respected industry expert validates the strategic direction of Yutong's electrification initiative.
Industry Collaboration
Guo Xudong, Chairman of Yutong Heavy Industry, stated that under the leadership of the association, Yutong Heavy Industry will take multiple measures and solidly promote the development of various key tasks. The company will firmly implement the national green and low-carbon development strategy and promote the green transformation and sustainable development of China's construction machinery industry. Visits of this nature between industry associations, academic institutions, and leading equipment manufacturers play a crucial role in advancing technology standards, sharing best practices, and accelerating the industry-wide transition to electrified and sustainable construction equipment.
