At the scene, 6 new 100-ton C series products performed the crab walking position. The tire corners of each car were basically the same, and they moved diagonally and linearly, just like a crab crawling horizontally, showing the unique multi-mode driving of XCMG all-terrain cranes. Technology gives a new feeling of being as light as a swallow.
The ability to have such a visual feast firstly benefits from the high emphasis on technological innovation by enterprises.
“Since this year, XCMG has focused on super cranes’ 100-meter high-altitude performance, heavy-duty transitions, safety control, precise control and other technical directions to continue to overcome difficulties, and innovations have been blooming frequently.” Sun Jianzhong, Vice President of XCMG Machinery and General Manager of Hoisting Machinery Division It was introduced at the launch site that as a landmark product for the localization of high-end all-terrain cranes, the newly launched 5 C-series cranes have achieved 100% domestic autonomy, completely subverting the curse of "Made in China without cores".
It has reached the world's leading level in lifting performance, power performance, intelligence level, and controllability level.

In the construction machinery industry, "the one who wins parts wins the world."
In order to ensure the safety of the supply chain, XCMG actively replaces important materials and parts with localized products.
Innovative projects such as transmission and hydraulic core components continue to gain new results, and the localized independent matching rate of some products continues to increase.
Around 2010, XCMG Cranes began to implement a large-scale localization strategy.
In the next five years or so, with the rise of China's manufacturing industry, XCMG cranes have basically realized localization of products under 50 tons; by 2018, they have basically realized the localization of products under 300 tons.
This year is the first year of the "14th Five-Year Plan". Driven by multiple benefits such as infrastructure stimulus, upgrading, and standard upgrades, China's construction crane industry has achieved steady growth.
Su Zimeng, president of the China Construction Machinery Industry Association, introduced that manufacturing companies represented by XCMG adhere to their main business, continue to cultivate, have achieved fruitful independent innovation, outstanding achievements in major technical equipment, outstanding achievements in green development, and further product performance, quality, reliability and durability. Improved, many technological breakthroughs have achieved domestic firsts, and some have even reached the world’s advanced or even internationally advanced level.
"XCMG puts technological innovation in the first place. We now have five major R&D centers in the world, the industry's number one national technology center, the industry's only high-end engineering machinery intelligent manufacturing state key laboratory, and the industry's only national industrial design center. Nowadays, through the unremitting efforts of more than 4,000 scientific and technical personnel of XCMG, our technological innovation level continues to lead the development of the industry, and gradually realizes the parallel and surpassing of competitors in Europe, America and Japan. It is on this basis that we can see this here today. Many of XCMG's shocking power tools are made by XCMG." XCMG, XCMG Chairman and Party Secretary Wang Min said.
Since the beginning of this year, XCMG mobile cranes have obtained 44 domestic patents and a total of 1,272 valid domestic patents, including 804 valid domestic invention patents; 9 authorized overseas invention patents and 51 overseas invention patents accumulatively lead the industry.
