Industry Background: Manufacturing automation enters the "deep waters," with service focus shifting from "buying equipment" to "using it well"

China has maintained its position as the world's largest industrial robot market for several consecutive years. According to the International Federation of Robotics (IFR) World Robot Report, the robot density in China's manufacturing sector has exceeded 400 units per 10,000 workers, significantly higher than the global average; The "Robot+" application initiative promoted by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and other departments is spreading automation from leading industries like automobiles and 3C to general manufacturing and county-level industrial belts.

But for small and medium-sized manufacturing enterprises in Southwest China, the main bottleneck for automation is no longer "not being able to afford robots," but three things:Easy to choose a model but hard to implement— Insufficient process validation causing equipment to run unstably after purchase;No one knows how to cultivate, no one understands how to tune— Brand OEM service outlets are concentrated along the coast, with slow local response and high costs;Outdated equipment and technology— The robot control system purchased in earlier years has ceased production and spare parts supply has been cut off, facing the dilemma of "replacing rather than repairing, and replacement is too expensive."

This is where the value of third-party technology service providers lies: standing on the customer's side, integrating technical resources across brands, and using localized teams to reduce response times from "cross-province scheduling by week" to "same-day delivery in Sichuan and Chongqing." The Nanchong Henghuan Industrial Robot Service Center was established according to this logic—relying on the technical expertise and spare parts channels of Guangzhou Henghuan Technology Co., Ltd., it has built localized testing, maintenance, and application engineering capabilities in northeastern Sichuan.

Overview of the Eight Core Businesses (sorted by business priority)
Business linesWhat problem is being solved?A typical deliverable
Applied technology servicesRobots bought but not knowing how to use them, and the processes running unstableProcess validation reports, workstation plans, programming and teach-in and production ramp-up support
Sales of new industrial robotsAdding new production lines and expanding capacity requires first-hand equipmentSelection configuration sheet, quotation and delivery schedule, installation and commissioning
Research and development of automation equipmentStandard models cannot meet non-standard demandsFixture end drawings, specialized machine prototypes, and production line integration solutions
Research and development of algorithms and control systemsTaps, accuracy, and data interconnection have encountered bottlenecksMotion optimization programs, vision inspection systems, PLC/SCADA integration with MES
Robot rentalShort-term capacity, trial production validation, and financial pressureIn-stock aircraft models are available for short-term rental, long-term rental, lease-to-purchase, including transportation, installation, and maintenance during the lease period
Software and hardware upgrade servicesOld equipment systems have been discontinued, with outdated performance and substandard safety standardsControl system replacement, firmware upgrades, mechanical refurbishment, and safety upgrades
Maintenance and repairSudden downtime and lack of preventive maintenanceOn-site diagnostic maintenance, annual maintenance contracts, and equipment health records
Used & in-stock robot salesLimited budget, rapid production start-up, disposal of old equipmentUsed robots after inspection and maintenance (with inspection report and warranty), old ones traded for new ones

How eight major businesses collaborate: covering the entire equipment lifecycle

The eight business lines are not isolated product catalogs, but a closed loop designed around the "entire device lifecycle":Model selection stageProcess validation is provided by applied technology services, new industrial robots are sold or used and inventory are sold and supplied. If budget is tight, robot leasing can be handled.Implementation phaseAutomated equipment R&D, fixtures and peripherals, algorithms and control systems R&D solve cycle accuracy and data integration;Operation phasePreventive maintenance and fault handling are carried out through maintenance and repair;Retirement phaseExtending service life through hardware and software upgrades, or reusing second-hand recycling and replacement, with residual value flowing back to new purchases.

This structure means two things to customers: first,No need to search for suppliers multiple times— The same team is responsible for planning, supply, commissioning, and after-sales, with clear boundaries of responsibility; SecondData and archives are continuous— Each piece of equipment's maintenance records, parameter backups, and modification history are kept in the same set of files, so personnel mobility does not affect the assessment of equipment status.

Why choose a third-party technology service provider?

Cross-brand capabilities: The production line often has three or four robot brands mixed together, while the original manufacturer only manages its own equipment; We have established technical documentation and testing capabilities for 1,310 models across 21 brands, with one team managing the entire production line.

Response speed: Engineers are stationed in Nanchong, based in the Yilong E-commerce Industrial Park, with same-day on-site access in Sichuan-Chongqing and Yunnan-Guizhou within 48 hours; Cross-province dispatch by the original manufacturer usually takes more than a week.

Cost structure: Third-party repair and maintenance prices are usually 40%–70% of the OEM channel, and they support board-level repairs—if you can repair the board, you won't replace the whole piece; if you can use the old one, don't buy a new one.

Neutral stance: No single brand; selection should be based on craftsmanship and budget; Whether equipment is repaired or not, whether replacement or not is replaced, accounts are based on residual value and downtime losses, not by sales revenue.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can the eight major businesses be purchased separately?

Yes, you can. All eight business lines can be contracted independently or often combined—for example, "second-hand machine procurement + fixture R&D + annual maintenance" is a common combination for budget-constrained clients. For first-time collaboration, it is recommended to start validation with small cutouts (single maintenance, process prototyping, or selection consultation).

What is your relationship with the original robot manufacturer?

We are an independent third-party technology service provider and have no affiliation or authorized agency relationships with any of the 21 listed brands. Where the OEM channels can handle it, they use the factory warranty; for out-of-warranty equipment, discontinued models, cross-brand integration, and emergency repairs, third-party services are the main domain.

How do you start a partnership?

A phone or form describing the equipment brand and model, fault symptoms, or process requirements is sufficient. For repairs, we provide preliminary judgment and handling recommendations within 2 hours; For proposal-type projects, on-site surveys will be arranged first (free of charge between Sichuan and Chongqing), followed by the issuance of the "Feasibility and Budget Range Explanation."
