Cultivation of the industrial chain is an important starting point for promoting high-quality economic development. A few days ago, Xinxiang City held a conference to promote new industrialization, key industry chain cultivation and deepening of the "Ten Thousand People Helping Thousands of Enterprises" activities, requiring further clarification of work ideas and methods, continuously gathering high-end elements for the development of manufacturing chain clusters, expanding development space, improving the "chain length + special class" operating mechanism, and the "alliance + association + chain owner" collaborative mechanism to promote the optimization of industrial structure and the leap in scale and level. Our city will passEfforts will be made to cultivate and expand 17 key industrial chains, including new chemical and new material industrial chains, to form a group of tens of billions of industrial chain groups and tens of billions of enterprises, to create a strong manufacturing city, to polish the foundation of an "innovation town" with "industry revitalizing the city", and to strive to build a national innovative city. From now on, this newspaper will launch the column "'Chain' Creates 'New' Wonders", focusing on the gathering of enterprises to form chains and the gathering of chains to form momentum, and show the vivid story of our city's improvement and strengthening of the industrial chain.
114 complete machine-scale manufacturers have driven the integrated development of 1,042 upstream and downstream small and medium-sized enterprises. Changyuan's lifting equipment industry chain is like a giant aircraft carrier, riding the wind and waves with unrivaled power and invincibility.
"Making the world easier" is the goal that Weihua Group strives for as a leading lifting company. The top two domestic gantry cranes are both located in Changyuan. There is one enterprise with an annual output value exceeding 10 billion yuan and one enterprise exceeding 5 billion yuan. There are more than 2,600 sales outlets at home and abroad, and the market share of gantry cranes has reached more than 70%.
With an arm soaring high, everything is calm. Taking industrial crane products as the leading role, plus port machinery and equipment, three-dimensional intelligent parking equipment and other products, Changyuan City has become the country's largest lifting machinery manufacturing base with the highest concentration and the most complete industrial chain. With a clear lead, the reputation of "China's Lifting Hometown" is well-deserved.
How many lifting industries are there
At Zhoukou Port Terminal, an important hub connected to the "Maritime Silk Road" in Henan, nearly 80,000 tons of goods are loaded and unloaded here every day. What ensures the smooth transfer of these goods between land and river transportation are the cranes from Changyuan.
Building a modern industrial chain, the supply chain connects the upstream, strengthens the midstream, and connects the downstream. Since last year, Changyuan City has focused on industrial collaboration and innovation synergy, and a number of individual champions and hidden champion companies with unique skills have stood out. Many "national brands" have been listed in Changyuan.
In this industrial chain with leading enterprises in the industry such as Weihua Group, Henan Mining, and Yufei Heavy Industry, heavy lifting machinery continues to go to the world, including single-girder cranes, gantry cranes, and special cranes.For cranes, port cranes, electric hoists, reducers, hoisting motors, hooks, etc., in more than 100 countries and regions around the world, you can see the "sky giants" produced by Changyuan lifting, moving, grabbing, and rotating.
This is the list of important tasks for the lifting machinery industry in Changyuan City: the annual output is 300,000 sets of complete lifting machines and 1.7 million units (sets) of parts and components. The industrial chain mainly involves 50 categories of products. In addition to steel products, there are supporting production companies and a sales force of more than 100,000 people. In the lifting equipment industry chain, there are 46 "specialized, special and new" companies.
Why is the lifting industry strong
A crane often weighs hundreds of tons, and the spreader shakes greatly during the operation. How can the staff achieve precise control?
Since 2006, Weihua Group began to develop crane electrical anti-sway technology, and finally successfully achieved independent research and development of anti-sway precise automatic positioning control technology. With the continuous improvement of technology, the swing amplitude of lifting equipment has been reduced by more than 95%, which is at the leading level in the world.
With heavy investment, Weihua Group invests 4% to 6% of its annual sales revenue in product research and development. It has more than 1,400 authorized patents. In 2022, the group will invest more than 800 million yuan in research and development.
The "planetary reducer" production technology that ensures the smooth operation of lifting equipment has been monopolized by foreign companies for a long time. As an upstream enterprise in the lifting industry, Henan Purui Precision Machinery Co., Ltd. has established a scientific research team to jointly tackle key problems with universities and scientific research institutions such as Wuhan University of Technology and Zhengzhou Machinery Research Institute to develop a full range of "planetary reducers".
Issuing a package of policies, Changyuan City supports key enterprises to cooperate with universities and research institutes at home and abroad to build innovation platforms such as national innovation centers and key laboratories, focusing on R&D, design, manufacturing and marketing services. It strives to break through "stuck neck" technologies, strengthen the supply of common basic technologies, and gradually extend the industrial chain to both ends.

Where there is water in the big river, there is water in the small river. Leading enterprises take the lead, and small and medium-sized enterprises focus on innovation and improvement in industry subdivisions. They organize production according to the production processes and product standards of large enterprises, integrate into the supply chain of large enterprises, and actively provide collaborative support for large enterprises. The "combination punch" is very powerful.
According to the industrial link map, Changyuan City focuses on areas with concentrated industrial connections such as the Yangtze River Delta, Pearl River Delta, Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, Shandong, and Anhui. Focusing on key intellectual property rights, cutting-edge technologies, sales and service resources, it actively visits national scientific research institutions, experts and talents, well-known enterprises, national industry associations, etc. that support industrial development, and strives to introduce a number of major projects and high-growth enterprises with strong driving capabilities and high industrial relevance to effectively strengthen and optimize the industrial chain and enhance the level of industrial development.
Carrying out in-depth quality improvement actions, Changyuan City strives to increase varieties, improve quality, create brands, expand investment in equipment updates and technological transformation, promote high-end, intelligent, and green development of industries, and create an internationally competitive advanced manufacturing cluster.
In addition, the abundant human resources in the Central Plains region have provided a large number of professionally trained technical workers for industrial development; thousands of supporting enterprises and more than a thousand supporting operating households have provided supporting services "without leaving Changyuan", saving production enterprises Save production costs; more than 2,600 service outlets integrate product sales, installation and commissioning, after-sales service, and information services, covering domestic and foreign markets. The advantages of time, location, and people have given Changyuan a growing voice in the lifting industry.
How will the lifting industry develop in the future
Strive to build an industrial structure system characterized by innovation drive, intelligence leadership, green development, and chain agglomeration by 2025, and build a world-class intelligent lifting equipment industry city. This is Changyuan's ambition.
One chain "chain" and multiple chains, the government joins hands with enterprises to realize the comprehensive integration of innovation chain, industrial chain, supply chain, data chain, capital chain, service chain and talent chain of large and medium-sized enterprises, so that large and small enterprises are interdependent and promote each other.
Although Changyuan City has obvious advantages, shortcomings also exist. Not only do we need to make up for the shortcomings in sensors, control systems and other industries, but we also need to encourage collaborative innovation among upstream and downstream enterprises in the industry chain to accelerate the development of complete cranes towards high-end, intelligent, customized and service-oriented.
In the future, the lifting machinery industry has the goal of expanding into the field of intelligent logistics equipment to achieve cross-border integration, expanding into the field of robots, and accelerating frontier layout. It has the ideal of creating a cloud-based industrial chain with a complete product series and leading intelligence levels, and has drawn up a blueprint for promoting high-quality economic development through the lifting equipment industry chain.
