according to orders, multi-model assembly, suppliers in
the workshops, assembly without stockpile and design
without paper come true. “One line” production management,
supplying chain management system, workshop management
system, “One line” payment for truck management system and
“One line” after sales service management system etc. have
improved the management and scale production increasingly
and increased core competitive force.
Engine machining
center at world level
