Rely on the ability of continuous innovation to occupy the high-end market


From the development of a company in the Qinling mountain valley 40 years ago to today’s world’s largest manufacturer and supplier of heavy-duty transmissions, the high-tech route of Shaanxi Fast Automotive Drive Group is not surprising: introduction, digestion, absorption, and innovation. However, the Fast people do more seriously and more carefully in every aspect. Through the full digestion and absorption of imported technology and the formation of its own unique technological innovation culture, a traditional supporting small plant has finally become an internationally renowned high-tech brand enterprise with a global market share of 55%.

In the domestic heavy-duty truck manufacturing industry, FAW, Dongfeng, China National Heavy Duty Truck, Beiqi Futian and other more than 10 well-known manufacturers compete fiercely and show their strengths. But they all have a common supplier. This is the Fast Group. 86% of the domestic market share is derived from Fast's powerful integrated innovation capability, and also from the selection of a high-profile technology platform more than 20 years ago—the introduction of Eaton’s dual countershaft transmission manufacturing technology. Compared with the single-shaft transmission technology commonly used in China, the dual-shaft technology is more suitable for China's national conditions in terms of comprehensive road conditions, loads, and transport capabilities. As the only company dominated by double countershaft transmissions, Fast's technological platform advantage has been prosperous to the present and has promoted the upgrading of mainstream transmission products in China's heavy-duty industry.

Entering Fast's product showroom, dozens of heavy-duty transmissions are virtually indistinguishable in appearance. However, each one represents a special product line, and the Faster told reporters: "The changes are all inside the casing." In the past three years, Fast has introduced more than 40 heavy-duty transmissions with completely independent intellectual property rights to the market. More than half of the new products have obtained national invention patents, achieved full coverage in the transmission of 5-16 transmissions, and exported to the United States. Australia, more than a dozen countries and regions. Among them, Fast 12-speed and 16-speed transmissions with completely independent intellectual property rights have exceeded the threshold of 1,000 units.

“High-tech can be bought with money, but the ability to continue innovation cannot be bought. Therefore, in the process of digesting and absorbing high-tech abroad, cultivating the enterprise’s own system innovation capability and innovation culture is the inevitable choice for traditional enterprises to enhance their technological competitiveness. In the heart of Fast Group Chairman Li Dakai, Fast's most precious wealth and achievements in the past 10 years were not the introduction of world-class manufacturing equipment, nor the dramatic increase in corporate profits, but the construction of a unique " The enterprise innovation culture.The introduction of the American Eaton transmission technology in 1985 is the first time we have systematically introduced foreign advanced technology. It is also the last time. According to statistics, in the past 8 years, the total amount of technology and research and development funds invested by the Fast Group has exceeded 1 billion yuan. Yuan Renminbi. In 2006, Fast Group and Jilin University and Shaanxi Automobile Group jointly established a national gear research institute. The “heavy duty automatic transmission” project was included in the national 863 plan; in addition, research and development equipment of the R&D department such as the Transmission Technology Research Institute was well-equipped. Staffing has increased dramatically. “In the past, we have also hoped to obtain foreign high-tech products through the formation of joint ventures, but later practice proved to be difficult.” Therefore, the Fast Group takes high-tech talent echelon as its top priority. Since 2002, Fast has hired more than 1,000 undergraduates to enter the factory. 80% of them are placed in the production line as workers. The "college blue-collars" become a fast-skilled, knowledge-based workforce and innovative echelon cultivation. The "Landscape". In recent years, the "10,000-thousand-thousand-thousand-dollar" innovation activity carried out by Fast is another bright spot for the construction of corporate innovation culture. This activity encourages ordinary workers to establish their own positions and actively carry out technological innovations, technological inventions, technological innovations, and research on energy conservation and consumption reduction. The company's front-line staff improved the positioning of imported equipment, namely Grinson's seven-axis NC gear shaping machine GP130SCNC pinion cutter. The equipment stability was greatly improved while ensuring product quality. During the event, only the toothed joint workshop received 24 innovations reported by employees. Ten R&D personnel and skilled workers who have made outstanding contributions to the development of new products received a reward of 750,000 yuan. Since 2005, the Fast Group has invested more than 8 million yuan to set up awards and grants in the automobile departments of many universities and colleges such as Tsinghua University, Jilin University, Xi'an Jiaotong University, and Wuhan University of Technology.

Today, in the field of heavy-duty transmission at home and abroad, "FAST" is not only a concept of a product brand, but also a symbol of a concentrated high-tech innovation culture. In response to the development direction of low-emission, low-speed, and low fuel consumption of heavy trucks in the future, Fast Group plans ahead and researches and develops. At present, Fast 12-speed, 16-speed double countershaft transmission technology not only fully meets the market requirements, but also has production and sales volume. Break through 50,000 units. Last year, in addition to meeting the needs of the OEM's entire vehicle, only the direct transmission of the Faith transmission by the user reached tens of thousands.
