On November 3, inside the production workshop of Zhongce Rubber's Jintan base, rows of automated production lines were running smoothly as workers operated equipment in an orderly manner at their stations. This provincial-level major project, with a total investment of 5.5 billion yuan, has now entered the trial production phase and is expected to begin full-scale operation in February next year. Once at full capacity, it will achieve an annual output of 25 million high-performance radial tires.
The radial tire project adopts a phased construction model. Leveraging technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence, cloud computing, and big data, the project is building a "Tire Internet" (Tire IoT) ecosystem centered on tire digitalization, asset management, service integration, and 5G connectivity, enabling smart tire lifecycle management.
Once operating at full capacity, the facility will be able to produce one tire approximately every 3.5 seconds.
The Jintan plant of Zhongce Rubber has pioneered the use of electric vulcanization technology, featuring an electrical vulcanizing machine independently developed by the company. This innovation surpasses the traditional steam vulcanization process by enabling separate control of temperature and pressure. It not only drives the transformation and upgrading of the tire manufacturing industry, but also provides strong support for the development of the new energy vehicle sector.
Currently, Zhongce Rubber supplies products to a number of major automakers, including GAC Group, Hongmeng Zhixing, Great Wall Motors, SAIC Volkswagen, BYD, Geely, FAW Jiefang, and JAC Motors. With the new production capacity coming online, the company is expected to further enhance its market supply capability.
