Marine Engineering Summit Fosters Exchange; University-Industry Collaboration Charts a New Course — Attendance at the Keynote Session of the PolyU 2025 Marine Engineering Fundamentals Symposium and the Wenzhou Research Institute Expert Delegation’s Visit to Wenzhou Yongan Heavy Industry Technology Co., Ltd.

Overview of the Thematic Seminar

On August 23, 2025, the Hong Kong Polytechnic University 2025 Marine Engineering Foundations Symposium was held in Wenzhou. Experts, scholars, and business representatives from the domestic and international marine engineering fields gathered to conduct in-depth discussions on the forefront and development path of marine engineering foundation technologies. Mr. Lin Deng, Chairman of Zhejiang Yong'an Engineering Machinery Co., Ltd. and Wenzhou Yong'an Heavy Industry Technology Co., Ltd., was invited to attend as an expert and delivered a 40-minute keynote report entitled "Research and Application of Large-Scale Offshore Engineering Pile Driving Equipment," systematically elaborating on the company's development history, core technological innovation achievements, and future plans.

In his report, General Manager Lin emphasized: "Yongan Heavy Industry has always adhered to its original aspiration of 'winning glory for the national industry,' and through continuous technological iteration and value enhancement, it has promoted the internationalization of domestically produced high-end equipment and demonstrated the strength of Chinese manufacturing."

Focusing on on-site visits, witnessing innovative strength

The following day (August 24), a delegation of experts from the Wenzhou Institute of Technological Innovation of Hong Kong Polytechnic University visited Yong'an Heavy Industry, conducting in-depth research and visits to the production line. Accompanied by Chairman Lin, the guests visited the production workshop, R&D testing center, and high-end equipment debugging area, gaining a comprehensive understanding of the company's full-chain capabilities from technology R&D to product implementation.

In the past three years, R&D expenditure and technological upgrading investment have exceeded 100 million yuan, and a full-process digital R&D system covering conceptual design, simulation analysis and process implementation has been built, which has significantly improved the innovation efficiency and reliability of complex equipment.

Our core marine engineering equipment has already achieved leading performance in key parameters and has formed significant advantages in cost control, after-sales response and customized services, winning widespread recognition from users.

A number of central enterprises, including CCCC Third Harbor Engineering Co., Ltd., serve as important partners, providing enterprises with multi-dimensional equipment operation data and engineering feedback, helping Yong'an Heavy Industry to continuously optimize product performance and applicability, and build a solid collaborative innovation ecosystem of industry, academia, research and application.

The expert panel highly praised Yong'an Heavy Industry's technological accumulation and manufacturing capabilities, especially commending the company's breakthroughs in independent research and development of core components and overall equipment performance improvement, believing that its development path has set a high-quality benchmark for national industry.

Attending the keynote speeches and participating in the company site visits at this seminar not only showcased the strength of Yong'an Machinery and Yong'an Heavy Industry in the field of high-end equipment manufacturing, but also laid a solid foundation for future university-enterprise cooperation. Both parties expressed their intention to further strengthen cooperation in talent cultivation, technology research and development, and technology transfer, jointly promoting the high-quality development of my country's marine engineering equipment manufacturing industry.
