The current situation of the special vehicle industry in Beijing shows that less than half of profitable enterprises produce high-value-added products. According to Li Yuheng, the secretary general of the Beijing Automobile Industry Association, among the 42 companies listed in the announcement, 10 are medium-sized enterprises, accounting for 24%, while 32 are small enterprises, making up 76%. Among these, 10 companies have assets over 100 million yuan (24%), and 8 have assets below 10 million yuan (19%).
In terms of product structure, the majority of the companies focus on professional transport vehicles, which make up 85% of their total offerings. High-tech, high-value functional products account for only 15% of the special vehicle production. The total number of product varieties reaches around 2,400. Within the special vehicle category, heavy-duty models dominate at 60%, with medium and light-duty models each at 20%. This ratio aligns closely with the 5:2:3 target set by the "Eleventh Five-Year Plan."
Most of Beijing’s special vehicles are converted from standard chassis, with FAW and Dongfeng chassis being widely used. Only a few companies use Foton’s chassis. As of the end of 2006, 20 companies were profitable, representing 48% of all special vehicle companies in the city. Among them, 9 had sales revenue exceeding 100 million yuan, 4 generated profits over 10 million yuan, and 5 had profits above 1 million yuan.
From an industrial distribution perspective, since the "Tenth Five-Year Plan," many special vehicle companies have relocated from urban areas to the Fourth and Fifth Ring Roads, particularly in Daxing and Shunyi districts. The market for special vehicles in Beijing has shown steady growth, with a year-on-year increase of 18.4% in 2005 and 46% in 2006. However, only a small portion of products are exported.
Despite this growth, Li Yuheng notes that the industry still faces challenges. While Beijing's special vehicle sector has some competitiveness nationally, it struggles to meet local market demands, leading to competition from imported vehicles. He outlines five main issues: a fragmented layout with no clear industrial advantage, small company size limiting market influence, technological gaps and low R&D efficiency, outdated management systems, and an immature market with inadequate policies.
To address these challenges, An Qingheng, president of the Beijing Automotive Industry Association, suggests leveraging Beijing's unique advantages—its market, talent pool, and strong support from Beiqi Foton. He emphasizes the Olympic opportunity, as the event requires a range of high-value special vehicles, such as TV OB vans, anti-riot vehicles, and specialized transport units. These represent high-tech, high-value products that could boost the industry.
Li Wanli, a researcher from the National Development and Reform Commission, recommends further structural adjustments, encouraging the development of large-scale, specialized, and diversified enterprises. He cites examples like CIMC Group, which achieved 80,000 vehicle sales last year, and Sany Heavy Industry, which expanded into international markets successfully. He also mentions the active special vehicle markets in Suizhou and Liangshan, where cluster-based production has led to growth.
An Qingheng suggests that the government should accelerate enterprise restructuring, promote resource integration, and support key players to become industry leaders. Meanwhile, backward enterprises should be phased out. He also highlights the need to focus on high-tech, multi-functional, and environmentally friendly special vehicles that meet the needs of sectors like health, security, and logistics.
With strong market demand for high-end special vehicles, Beijing has the potential to lead national development. The industry aims to reach 50,000 units in production and sales by 2010, with revenue hitting 10 billion yuan. This vision reflects the growing importance of the special vehicle sector in Beijing's broader automotive landscape.
Screw Conveyor
The screw conveyor is a new type of transport equipment which continuously pushes materials by rotating screw blades in a closed shell with circular cross-section.
Main features:reasonable structure design, small cross-sectional area, light weight, consumption nice sealing, high conveying efficiency, flexible process arrangement, easy to dismantle and move, operation safety. It is used for transporting conveying all kinds of powdery, granular and small bulk materials, such as clay powder,fly ash, cement, sand, grain, small coal, pebbles and cast iron chips. It is not suitable for conveying materials with high viscosity,easy to be curdled and easy to be deteriorated.
screw conveyor has horizontal, inclined and combined forms according to the configuration, which can also match with other transport equipment to complete the collection, distribution, stirring, mixing, dehydration, customized batching, unloading, stacking and other operations. LSY series conveyor is applicable to bulk cement transportation from Cement Silo to mixer or from cement silo to batching machine in Concrete Batching Plant.
