Through China Academy of Machinery Science and Technology, China Association of Machinery Manufacturing Technology, Yuchai learns a lot of national and industryai policies. Under the cooperation of Yuchai Science and Technology Association and Yuchai Technician Association, Yuchai encourages technicians to apply for the Chinese Mechanical Industry Science and Technology Award.
Chen Jinyuan says: “the award covers a wide scope and helps Yuchai makes two zero breakthroughs. In 2013, not only YC Diesel, Yuchai Heavy Industry also is awarded with prizes covering R&D and technique fields.”
Scientific innovation has been a constantly pursuit of Yuchai. Its “technical innovation and industrialization of large diesel engine with ironwood plastic composite mould” brings huge economic and environmental profits to the company. According to Chi Zhao, one of the project participators, the technology is mainly applied to large diesel engines such as C300, CV100 and CK100, featured by fast mould processing and low costs. From 2010 to 2012, the technology helps the company to create profits more than 150 million yuan and saves as much as 3.9 million yuan on mould.
