On December 29th, the "Laying the Foundation for a Strong Nation: Achievements of China's Manufacturing Industry in the 14th Five-Year Plan" exhibition was opened, it jointly organized by the National Museum of China and the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. More than 300 sets of major technical equipment from across the country were selected, and the 5m-class shearing equipment developed by Fangda Group's Northern Heavy Industries was successfully included in the exhibition

The 5m-class shearing equipment exhibited by Northern Heavy Industries Group Co., Ltd. (NHI) was strictly selected by the Liaoning Provincial Department of Industry and Information Technology and then submitted to the News and Publicity Center of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. The equipment was selected by the expert review committee organized by the organizer based on comprehensive evaluation factors such as the progressiveness, representativeness, and integrity of the exhibits. This selection is a comprehensive affirmation of NHI's technological innovation, manufacturing capabilities, and industry contributions, and it also serves as a powerful demonstration of the high-end equipment manufacturing level in Liaoning and even the whole country. NHI has injected strong momentum into the independent and controllable, high-quality development of China's equipment manufacturing industry.

Northern Heavy Industries Group Co., Ltd. is a core backbone enterprise in China's equipment manufacturing industry and one of the foremost manufacturers of metallurgical equipment. Over the past seventy years, it has been deeply engaged in the industry and committed to innovation, producing more than 1,000 sets of various rolling and shearing equipment, and achieving numerous records in China and the world. With its precise, efficient, stable, and reliable product performance, it has earned the industry reputation of "China's Shear King" and become a technological benchmark and quality symbol in the industry.

Northern Heavy Industries Group Co., Ltd. (NHI) has always relied on technological innovation to tackle development challenges. Now, it has the capability to supply complete sets of equipment for 5-meter-class wide and heavy plate finishing lines, including rolling shear double-side shears, rolling shear crop shears, rolling shear cut-to-length shears, rolling shear slitting shears, etc., which have been introduced to domestic and international markets. Through research on rolling shear cutting trajectory simulation, cutting mechanism design, complete finishing line drive system design, electromechanical and hydraulic integration, system digitization, and other technologies, NHI has broken through the core and key "bottleneck" technical bottlenecks of rolling shear for 5-meter-class wide and heavy plate finishing lines, breaking the foreign technology monopoly and filling the gap in the independent development and research of complete sets of equipment for 5-meter-class wide and heavy plate finishing lines in China. It has formed core technical equipment with independent intellectual property rights, reaching the international advanced level and promoting the high-precision, large-scale, serialized, and intelligent development of complete sets of equipment for wide and heavy plate finishing lines in China.

In May 2025, the first domestically developed and manufactured 5.5m wide heavy plate cutting and head cutting shears of the world's largest specification by Northern Heavy Industries Group Co., Ltd. were successfully put into operation in Zhoukou, Henan Province. As the New Year approaches, the manufacturing workshop of Northern Heavy Industries Group Co., Ltd. is unusually busy. The research and development and manufacturing services for customized shearing equipment provided for several key projects such as the green high-end nickel-chromium new material intelligent manufacturing of Zhenshi Group Dongfang Special Steel are progressing as planned.

Manufacturing is the lifeblood of a country's economy, serving as the foundation for nation-building and the cornerstone of a strong nation. Looking ahead, Northern Heavy Industries will anchor its goal of becoming a manufacturing powerhouse, focusing on the development directions of intelligence, greening, and integration. It will continuously enhance product quality and core performance, promote the deep integration of technological innovation and industrial innovation, and make greater contributions to the upgrading of China's high-end equipment manufacturing industry and the cultivation and enhancement of new productive forces.
