On September 5, 2022, a high-quality development achievement exhibition titled "Technology Innovation, Quality Enterprise" was held in Yulin, Guangxi, attracting many industry media from all over the country. In this exhibition, Yuchai will create a vivid picture of development and innovation side by side under the witness of the media of the whole industry. As a leading enterprise in my country's internal combustion engine manufacturing industry, Guangxi Yuchai Machinery Co., Ltd. has left a strong mark in the history of domestic internal combustion engine manufacturing for more than 70 years.

One machine became famous and started a 70-year industry journey

Footprints can only be left long enough if they are stepped deep enough. When the first diesel engine X2105 developed by Yuchai in the 1950s stood intact in the Science and Technology Museum, the development of Yuchai's machines for more than 70 years also began.

The X2105 engine is the beginning of this exhibition of achievements in the Science and Technology Museum, and it is also the starting point of Yuchai's machinery. Following in the footsteps of Chen Hai, Vice President and Chief Quality Officer of Yuchai Co., Ltd., the innovation achievements of hydrogen energy power such as hydrogen-burning engines and fuel cells, and the localization achievements of IE-power hybrid power, unmanned autonomous tractors, crawler tractor engines and other agricultural machinery And construction machinery power innovation achievements, MTU localization achievements, ECU chip products, UAV engines and other technological innovation achievements, comprehensive supporting National VI, non-road National IV vehicle products and other market supporting achievements have been displayed one after another. We have proved that the birth of a generation of strong enterprises is indispensable for the development background of strong technology and innovation.

Craftsmanship research and development, compose Yuchai innovation gene

Pioneering and innovation have long been rooted in Yuchai's gene blood. In the field of research and development, Yuchai has established NVH test rooms, hydrogen engine test rooms and other research laboratories and big data analysis rooms, based on customer needs, combined with Yuchai's powertrain Taking advantage of the advantages in the field, we will conduct joint research and development with OEMs, carry out sufficient road tests, crack customers' actual product application pain points, and create products that better meet customer needs.

Emphasizing talent development has also laid the foundation for Yuchai to develop products that meet customer needs. The person in charge of the research institute said that Yuchai R&D Center has a world-class R&D team, many of whom are recipients of special allowances from the State Council, outstanding talents such as outstanding young experts and experts in the 10,000-person plan, and have worked together to break through a number of "stuck neck" technical difficulties.

Wu Yong, vice president of sales of special vehicles and general machinery of Yuchai, told reporters: "At present, the K08 and k09 designed and developed by the original team of Mercedes-Benz are the two models that we focus on in the field of special vehicles, saving energy and fuel. It has reliable performance and is very popular with customers. Next, we will develop richer and more professional operation functions to fully meet the needs of the professional vehicle market and maximize the creation of value for customers.”

Intelligent manufacturing of China VI, the cornerstone of black light factory reconstruction efficiency

With the development of the industry towards intelligence, the smart factory has become the leading place for the next military strategist. In recent years, Yuchai Co., Ltd. has successively invested nearly 3 billion yuan to simultaneously carry out the intelligent upgrading and transformation of the new generation of National VI production lines, and built a comprehensive application of 5G technology, digital monitoring of the entire process of the management center, and automation of the entire engine process. Towards a "black light factory" where unmanned lights can be turned off.

In a clean, tidy, quiet and constant temperature dust-free workshop, technicians only need to issue instructions in front of the central control system, and the "black light factory" can carry out precise production according to the instructions, changing the traditional production process through robots and automation, and realizing production Accurate, efficient and safe throughout the process. It is reported that after the implementation of the smart manufacturing plant project, Yuchai's labor productivity has increased by 14.36%, energy utilization has increased by 6.6%, and the engine production cycle has been shortened by 20%. The calculated direct economic benefits created each year exceed 20 million yuan.

At present, Yuchai has national-level intelligent manufacturing demonstration projects, from the largest foundry center in Asia, to the machining and assembly workshop at the German Industry 4.0 level, and to 11 years of lean manufacturing practice, Yuchai has built a leading industry by "doing both hard and soft". manufacturing strength.

Thousands of miles to go out to create industry service benchmarks

Starlight has lived up to the rush. Yuchai has built an efficient service system since the beginning of product marketing. At the exhibition site, the person in charge showed the server-side big data and real-time status feedback system. This system allows us to quickly understand the service process and progress. , Yuchai is also one of the few companies in the country that has a special service number. If drivers have trouble on the road, as long as they call the 24-hour online special service number, they can quickly find a maintenance service station within 50 kilometers, and the response is better. In time, driving is safer.

The leader said: "We have launched professional customized services according to different customers and different application scenarios. In addition, we have also cooperated with many first-line supporting enterprises to hold the 'Service for Thousands of Miles' activities, and strive to provide customers with a full range of technical support. "In short, the concept of solving difficulties and troubleshooting for users has penetrated into every link of the after-sales department.

After the exhibition, Yuchai also invited millions of typical users without major repairs to share their car experience on the spot. The user said that Yuchai not only saves worry about products, but also provides more worry-free services. The reason why his trucks can achieve millions of kilometers without major repairs is inseparable from the support of reliable Yuchai ace power.

Time pays off. Last year, Yuchai achieved a cumulative operating income of nearly 48 billion yuan, a record high, and made a good start in the "14th Five-Year Plan"; the cumulative production and sales scale of products exceeded 10 million units, becoming the first company in the industry to achieve production and sales of 1,000 units. Thousands of enterprises. This year, Yuchai has continued to make new achievements. With a brand value of 75.659 billion yuan, Yuchai ranked 101st in the "China's 500 Most Valuable Brands" analysis report, leading the internal combustion engine industry for 17 consecutive years. Whether it is technology research and development or market development, Yuchai Power has a bright future.

In the past 70 years or so, from a small engine to becoming the ace power of China's construction machinery industry, from a micro-enterprise rooted in a small town, to becoming a powerhouse that has led China's internal combustion engine industry for 17 consecutive years. Make the most of this journey. Through this achievement exhibition, we not only saw the exciting development history of Yuchai Machinery from following, side by side and then surpassing, but also witnessed the historical process of continuous upgrading of China's construction machinery industry. In the future, Yuchai Machinery will continue to follow the forward-looking layout of the times one after another, focus on serving customers, take industry development as its own responsibility, intelligently create the "core dirty" of the industry, and lead China's power!  Editor/Zhao E
