The prosperity of infrastructure has made the construction machinery industry quite prosperous in recent years, and China’s heavy industry giants such as Xugong Group and Sany Heavy Industry have achieved good results in the past two years. The strength of Japanese heavy industry companies is also quite well, as Japan’s first machinery giant Komatsu, with 11.5% of the global market share, ranked second in the world, can not be underestimated.

The name “Komatsu” is quite unique in a number of construction machinery enterprises named after heavy industries and construction machines. According to public information: Komatsu has been established in 1921, and in 1956, it has entered the Chinese market, since then, Komatsu has been silently fishing for gold in China for 64 years. At the very beginning, it only did the export business of the whole machine, its first exhibition in China, it sold 20 bulldozers, a smooth start.

Since then, Komatsu has repeatedly taken large orders in China for up to thousands of units. It is rare that Komatsu also accepted many Chinese people who went to Japan to study, and promoted the progress of China’s heavy industry. Not only that, since the 1980s, Komatsu has also carried out technical cooperation with Chinese enterprises, bringing advanced technology and technology.

In addition, Komatsu has also actively cooperated with Chinese enterprises to produce many mechanical products such as loaders. Komatsu’s development strategy in the Chinese market was not aggressive, but adopted a gradual approach, until 1995, it began to build a factory in China. The more Komatsu integrates with the Chinese market and gradually realizes localized operations, the Chinese market is becoming more and more important for Komatsu.

In a flash, the time has come to the 21st century, Komatsu began to accelerate its pace in the Chinese market, constantly expanding production capacity and increasing business. It has also established a product technology development center in China, which not only shows its strength. By 2020, Komatsu has established branches in Shanghai, Changzhou, Shandong and other places in China, which can be said to be all over the land of China.

In fact, on the whole, Komatsu’s entry into the Chinese market, both for itself and for China, has no small benefits. According to official data, Komatsu’s annual sales have reached 23.298 billion U.S. dollars, equivalent to 165.7 billion yuan. Among them, a large share of its revenue is from the Chinese market, and China would not have achieved its current strength in the field of machinery so quickly without Komatsu’s help.

It is worth mentioning that in February this year, the market value of Sany Heavy Industry has surpassed Komatsu. Companies such as Xugong Group and Zoomlion are also accelerating their development. Komatsu may soon lose its market position.

Below are some of the internal production giFs shared by Komatsu: The high pressure cleaning machine effectively removes all kinds of dirt, zap, rust layer, burr and other residues, reducing the wear rate of Komatsu machinery components.

The hydraulic testing table independently developed by Komatsu Japan factory can fully control the pressure resistance, impact resistance, buffer performance and impurity residues of Komatsu hydraulic parts with its high standard:

Different chassis parts, using different, professional heat treatment equipment:

High precision sealing, tight coordination between components:

Komatsu also has a dust-free workshop for main valve assembly (for the installation of hydraulic tubing and pipe fittings connected to the main valve) :
