Dialogue with Shandong outstanding entrepreneur | Li Yongsheng: Innovation leads the leap from rock drill to magnetic levitation

Qilu Network Lightning News, February 11, 2019 Innovation leads the way, and strives to achieve new breakthroughs. On February 7, Shandong Province held the 2022 Work Mobilization Conference to solemnly commend 72 outstanding entrepreneurs who have made outstanding contributions to Shandong's development. Among them, Li Yongsheng, chairman of Shandong Tianrui Heavy Industry Co., Ltd., was rated as "Excellent Entrepreneur of Shandong Province".

Li Yongsheng said frankly that the "ten innovations" proposed at the meeting deeply touched him, "innovation is the guidance of all work, and the rapid development of Tianrui Heavy Industry mainly depends on innovation in all aspects." In fact, the old bank at the beginning of the establishment of Tianrui Heavy Industry has almost no connection with magnetic levitation technology, and it is the spirit of innovation that has led Li Yongsheng to embark on the road of magnetic levitation step by step.

After graduating from college in 1983, Li Yongsheng was assigned to Gansu Tianshui Pneumatic Factory to engage in research in the rock drilling machinery industry, which was more than 20 years. By chance, he learned about the unique entrepreneurial environment in his hometown. In 2008, he has become the leader of the industry, and resolutely returned to Weifang with the team to found Tianrui Heavy Industry Co., Ltd., the main product is high-speed rock drill.

Rock drills are tools used to mine stone directly. Through a large number of experiments and data analysis, new materials and new technologies can be used to solve the problem of fracture and wear of parts, which can greatly extend its service life. Improving the performance of rock drilling equipment is also Li Yongsheng's unremitting pursuit. However, in the process of entrepreneurship, the gap in funds has become a "big and difficult" problem, and even once let product research and development fall into a bottleneck. At this time, in order to encourage and support innovative and entrepreneurial talents, Weifang City included Tianrui Heavy Industry in the support list, and Li Yongsheng was also rated as the first batch of Taishan industry leading talents in Shandong Province. With key financial support, product development is unfolding.

"The original life of the rock drill parts was only at the level of chiseling one or two kilometers, but now it has doubled, and the stability can reach four or five months." Li Yongsheng told the lightning news reporter that the damaged parts should be taken back to analyze the causes and continuously improve, and of the 108 parts of the rock drill, the improvement of the Tianrui Heavy Industry team can reach sixty or seventy.

When it comes to the choice of returning to his hometown to start a business, Li Yongsheng also carefully considered: "Weifang's manufacturing industry and industrial base environment are good, so it can make my product rapidly improved." ”

The rock drill equipment developed by Tianrui Heavy Industry was rated as the single champion product of the national manufacturing industry by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. However, Li Yongsheng is not satisfied, the rock drill market is so big, which direction should it be developed in the future? As a result, the team began to try to develop new products. In addition to the rock drill, the Tianrui Heavy Industry team also tried the research and development of seawater desalination machine, intelligent spraying machine and other equipment. Under the general trend of the state advocating energy conservation and emission reduction, maglev has entered their sights, and Li Yongsheng has made a bold decision: to carry out the research and development of maglev power equipment.

At that time, the Tianrui Heavy Industry team was just a "novice" in the field of magnetic levitation. Li Yongsheng told the lightning news reporter: "The development of science and technology needs innovation, and the development of enterprises needs innovation. I think that the right things must be insisted on, and only by sprinting higher technology will some new industries be formed. ”

After years of research, finally successfully broke through the key technology of maglev "card neck", a paper group in Weifang became the earliest manufacturer of "eating crabs", "a maglev fan than the ordinary fan a day to save more than 1,000 degrees of electricity, save 350,000 kWh of electricity a year, the noise is obviously smaller, the failure rate is very low." Looking back at the development of Tianrui Heavy Industry, Li Yongsheng sighed: "Innovation is the source of all manufacturing, only by grasping innovation, can we have good technology, good industry and good future." ”

Nowadays, Tianrui Heavy Industry presided over the research and development of magnetic levitation blowers, magnetic levitation vacuum pumps and other series of products, all energy saving of more than 30%, noise as low as 80 decibels, life of up to 20 years, reaching the international leading level, widely used in cement, papermaking, sewage treatment, chemical, thermal power and other high-energy industries, was rated as Shandong's "top ten scientific and technological achievements", won the "Shandong Provincial Technological Invention First Prize", was selected into the national "Energy Efficiency Star" product catalog, "Green Technology Promotion Catalog (2020)". and Shandong Province's new and old kinetic energy conversion major project library. This year, the two achievements of "Magnetic Levitation Centrifugal Blower" and "National Maglev Power Technology Foundation and Application Standardization Working Group" were listed in the 2022 Shandong Provincial Government Work Report.

Carbon peaking in 2030 and carbon neutrality in 2060 has become a national strategy, and magnetic levitation technology has become an important technical support for the mainland to win the battle against pollution and achieve carbon peaking and carbon neutrality. Li Yongsheng said, "At present, Tianrui Heavy Industry is at a critical historical moment", Tianrui Heavy Industry will adhere to innovation and leadership, from technology, market, supply chain, product promotion and other aspects of multi-faceted and all-round innovation, to create a hundred billion new industry to make great progress.
