On March 19, a visit to the production workshop of Bengbu Longhua Die Casting Machine Co., Ltd. revealed high-speed precision machine tools in operation, technicians closely monitoring screens to adjust parameters, and rows of intelligent die casting machines ready for shipment to countries along the Belt and Road Initiative. With a history dating back to 1950, this time-honored enterprise started as one of Bengbu’s "Top Five Machinery Brands". After more than 70 years of dedicated development, it has become a benchmark in China’s die casting machine industry, showcasing Chinese intelligent manufacturing going global with solid strength.

As one of China’s earliest professional enterprises engaged in the R&D and manufacturing of die casting machines, and once the leading brand among Bengbu’s "Top Five Machinery", Bengbu Longhua has focused on core fields including die casting machines, molds, and industrial automation equipment since 1982. It has established a full industrial chain integrating design, R&D, manufacturing, sales, and after-sales service. Today, the company’s products are exported to 45 countries and regions, with technical and marketing offices established in 7 countries, forming a global marketing and service network covering Asia, Europe, Africa, and the Americas, including more than 30 countries along the Belt and Road. It has become a vivid example of China’s industrial machine tools "going global".

Deep commitment to technological innovation is the core driver of Longhua’s success. Since 2014, the company has strengthened industry-university-research cooperation, partnering with prestigious institutions such as the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and Bengbu University. A professional R&D team of 58 members has been set up at the headquarters, including 14 doctors and 12 postgraduates, with high-end talents accounting for over 40%. With strong R&D capabilities, the enterprise has been recognized as a National High-Tech Enterprise and an Anhui Provincial Specialized, Sophisticated, Unique and New Enterprise. It holds 14 national invention patents and 21 computer software copyrights, and has developed core achievements such as the group standard for artificial intelligence cold chamber die casting machines and Anhui Provincial First Set of Major Technical Equipment, ranking among the industry leaders in technical level.

As core equipment of "industrial machine tools", Longhua die casting machines feature high precision and high productivity, and are widely used in non-ferrous metal processing fields such as aerospace, new energy vehicles, robotics, and communication equipment. Their precision castings can be found in applications ranging from aircraft carrier components and household hardware to drone bodies and automotive parts. The quality motto engraved on the company’s wall — "Today’s Quality, Tomorrow’s Market" — has long been integrated into every production process, earning Longhua the trust of customers worldwide.

Looking ahead, Longhua is aiming for the strategic goal of "achieving global domestic substitution and enabling the world to adopt Chinese intelligent manufacturing", continuously increasing R&D investment and accelerating intelligent upgrading. From a time-honored factory rooted in Bengbu to an international Chinese brand, Longhua, with over 70 years of craftsmanship dedication, has injected strong impetus into the globalization of China’s industrial machine tools and made solid contributions to the high-quality development of the local real economy.
