Anhui Anqing Huanxin Group Co., Ltd. is a professional enterprise engaged in R&D and production of key components of automobile engines, focusing on capital operation and group management. In recent years, in the fierce market competition environment, Huanxin Group has seized the rare opportunity of the rapid development of China's automobile industry in a timely manner, and has continuously developed and expanded through “strong alliance” and enhanced its core competitiveness.

Anqing Huanxin Group was restructured from the original Anqing Piston Ring Factory. As early as 1968, the company began the official mass production of piston ring products. In 1988, it was approved as a “national secondary enterprise” and in 1991 it was rated as a national medium-sized enterprise. In 2000, Anqing Piston Ring Factory was officially renamed Anhui Anqing Huanxin Group Co., Ltd., and the company's history has opened a new page. At present, the company has fifteen Sino-foreign joint ventures such as ATG, ATP and ATGL, and ten wholly-owned and holding subsidiaries. As of the end of 2013, the registered capital of the Group and its subsidiaries has exceeded 1.4 billion yuan, with a total investment of 4.2 billion yuan and annual sales income of 4.508 billion yuan.

Regarding the classification of auto parts products currently produced by the Group and its subsidiaries, Cai Xiangdong, Assistant General Manager of Huanxin Group, said: "The company is mainly engaged in the production of auto parts products. At present, the subordinate enterprises mainly produce 10 products, which are divided into two major systems. One is the power system, which mainly includes piston ring, piston cylinder sleeve, piston rubber, etc. The other is the intake and exhaust system, which mainly includes valve seat, valve guide, valve spring, etc. The sales volume of at least three products is currently ranked sales. The first in the country."

In recent years, in the fierce market competition environment, Huanxin Group has continuously enhanced its core competitiveness through the “strong alliance” approach. The Group's Anqing Dibergs Piston Ring Co., Ltd. (ATG) was established in June 1996 by Anqing Huanxin Group, Japan TPR Co., Ltd. and the US FM Auto Parts Multinational Group Corporation. After 18 years of unremitting efforts and development, through the joint venture integration, the company currently ranks first in the domestic market for piston ring products, reaching more than 48%, providing comprehensive supporting products for the top 20 automobile and motorcycle manufacturers in China.

Cai Xiangdong is proud to introduce to the media that ATG currently has the world's largest piston ring production base: "The two cars that run outside, one of them is the piston ring of our company. It is mounted on the piston, with the piston. The glue moves inside the liner. At the same time, the factory is also the largest piston ring factory in the world."

The piston ring produced by ATG is the most technically advanced of all the products produced by Huanxin Group, so it has certain technical advantages in the market. For the technical difficulty of piston ring production, Cai Xiangdong said: "Piston ring products are particularly simple to look at, but they are actually the most demanding of all our product lines, the most complicated one. It has to work in the cylinder liner because of the piston and When the cylinder liner is not in contact, it is contacted by it, so it has to be wear-resistant, high temperature resistant and has a bad working environment. It is not only labor-intensive, but also has complicated processing technology, cannot be linearized, and is capital-intensive. The investment is very large."

As another large-scale technology product independently researched and developed, ATG's aluminum-containing cylinder liners currently occupy more than 80% of the domestic market, and are also developing rapidly in overseas markets. Cai Xiangdong said: "At present, the cars are better equipped with aluminum cylinders, including the domestic Jianghuai, Chery, Great Wall, etc. The company that cooperates with us is Dongfeng Nissan, which is Japanese, and the general is American. National, including BYD."

At the same time, in recent years, the new energy vehicle market with low exhaust emissions and more environmental protection has developed rapidly, especially the use of electric-powered pure electric vehicles has become an emerging key development project for many automakers. Huanxin Group has a long-term strategic plan in this field and has made small achievements. Cai Xiangdong said, "We have invested in this area because the new energy vehicles are very encouraged by the country. Our company now has a sense of crisis, and we are worried that one day the cars will not use our products. We recently invested in cooperation with Samsung Group of South Korea in Xi'an. Production of power batteries for their electric vehicle products. So now the power battery and power battery management system is one of our investment directions."

When talking about how to use their strengths in the highly competitive auto parts field, Cai Xiangdong said that the group strives to achieve a relative balance between price and quality: "The advantage of our products is mainly in technology, the same as foreign products. Quality, but my cost is 30% lower than them. Compared with domestic similar products, the price is the same, but the quality is better than them. For example, my product can run 400,000 kilometers, you can only run 300,000 kilometers. This is our advantage. So our customers are very stable and can build a very trusting relationship."

Through the unremitting efforts of all employees in the company, as a large private enterprise that has won the title of “China's Machinery Industry Top 100 Competitiveness” and “Anhui Top 100”, Huanxin Group has been recognized as a national automobile by the National Development and Reform Commission and the Ministry of Commerce. Parts export base enterprises. In the future, Anqing Huanxin Group will adhere to the principle of “quality, service and delivery”, extend the industrial chain, expand production capacity, continuously reduce production and operation costs, continue to promote innovation activities, increase the scale of international trade, and realize the Group’s Diversified development.
