In the torrent, only the brave can move forward steadily without fear of resistance. If we say that the current internal combustion engine manufacturing area is likened to a turbulent flow, then the FAW Liberation Engine Division (hereinafter referred to as the Engine Division) is well-deserved as a brave person, and this brave man is moving toward the goal of “Leading for a world-class leader”.

FAW Liberation Engine Division

Strong technical foundation without fear of obstacles

At present, the development of new energy vehicles is hot, and the models led by pure electric vehicles have become the biggest obstacle to the sales volume of traditional internal combustion engines. In 2017, driven by national policies, electric vehicles sold more than 700,000 vehicles in the year, and they also had a certain amount of sales in the light truck field. The development trend was rapid. In this regard, Qian Hengrong, party secretary and general manager of FAW's Liberation Engine Division, said: "The future will be an era in which multiple dynamics coexist and no alternative phenomenon will emerge."

“At present, pure electric vehicles are used in the commercial vehicle sector, and there are certain problems that need to be resolved.” Qian Hengrong told the China Truck Network reporter that “The truck has a relatively high transportation mileage, especially for medium and heavy trucks . The current battery is difficult to maintain the normal operation of the vehicle, and the current charging facilities are not perfect, and the charging time and other issues are all problems that need to be overcome for the purely electric vehicles to meet low emissions.

On the issue of reducing emissions, the engine business unit has also been committed to the research and development of clean energy products, reducing the impact of pure electric products on the sales of the Xichai series of engines. “At present, the Aowei series of natural gas engines have been market-oriented, and a new generation of products is also under development. At the same time, Forward-looking Technology Research Institute is also studying fuel cell technology and may be applied to future trucks to reduce emissions from the source.” Hengrong said.

In addition, the China Truck Network reporter learned that the Engine Division is also upgrading the traditional engine products to improve the thermal efficiency of the products. Since the main source of domestic power generation currently is firepower, from the mine to the wheel, the thermal efficiency of diesel engines is higher than that of electric products. If the engine business department raises the thermal efficiency of products to more than 50%, the environmental effects of diesel engines will also exceed that of electric products.

Of course, in addition to technical upgrades in product thermal efficiency, the engine division also has advanced equipment to support technological upgrades. The reporter learned that the engine business unit currently has a total of 96 sets of research and development equipment, and it has 20 sets of six development platforms in China, with 10 full-flow certification labs for performance and reliability; it has internationally leading spray-burning optical constant volume bombs and single cylinders. Machine; R&D expenditures account for more than 5% of sales each year. Therefore, the Engine Division is confident to provide the market and customers with complete powertrain solutions.

Qian Hengrong also stated that “I am full of confidence” to respond to the challenges of electric vehicles and new energy vehicles with the current technological level of the Engine Division.

Committed to international market products and services

Going to the international market is the common goal of all manufacturing companies, and it is also a powerful demonstration of the quality of products. "The engine division's strategic positioning is to create a 'domestic leading, international first-class' engine powertrain." Qian Hengrong said that the criteria for entering the international market is brand influence and product technology. Qian Hengrong believes that the future market competition will inevitably be the competition of the brand. Five years ago, at the time, Xichai took the brand leadership as the highest strategy for enterprise development. After several years of hard work, the Xichai brand’s “cognition and reputation "degree, loyalty" has been in the forefront of the industry, Aowei brand individual indicators exceeded the international brand. In the future, the Engine Division will aim to enter the US market with the highest goal, and continue to expand the influence of corporate brands to create a truly international brand.

The China Truck Network reporter learned that the European and American high-end market is an important target market after the establishment of the engine business unit and is still at the basic stage of development. The non-road products first developed by the Engine Division in the US market have already received the EPA certification report from the United States. The next engine division will enter the automotive market.

At present, the United States' emission standards are equivalent to the national six-nation stage. The engine business unit has already produced one product for mass production. After the National Six-Products are listed in batches in 2020, the engine business unit will enter the US market in bulk in the field of highway engines.

Layout of overseas markets will inevitably require a corresponding service system. Ji Yizhi, executive deputy general manager of FAW Jiefang Engine Co., Ltd., said: “At this stage, foreign emission standards are also upgraded. The service system, product technology, product promotion, user perception, and maintenance level are all different from those in China. These aspects are related to the engine business. For the ministry, we must consider that, at the product level, including the training of overseas products and the establishment of overseas offices, we have made preparations and arrangements. At the same time, overseas-related service systems have to be completely upgraded. We have already established in relevant countries. The service center carries out training, service, technical support, etc. In addition, overseas propaganda needs to be strengthened to allow more overseas users to understand the products of the Engine Division and to allow foreign users to feel that it is made in China."

In addition, in terms of product layout, the original Xichai and DDE complement each other, and the engine division's product displacement has covered 2-16 liters, forming a new pattern of full-scale development of heavy, medium, and light. The power density of the six-phase product is the largest. . In terms of technology, the product also successfully entered the era of independent R&D 3.0, fully integrated with international standards, and achieved industry leadership in fuel economy.

In spite of the rapids, we are still aggressive. Even in the face of the sudden rise of the domestic market and obstacles to the international market, the Engine Division still maintains a brave attitude and is advancing with technological development, product upgrading, and service improvement. The aircraft market has maintained its leadership, led the medium and light markets, expanded its influence in overseas markets, and moved forward with the goal of “leading domestically and internationally”.
