Geely General Aviation Manufacturing Base is located in Hannan Aviation and Satellite Industrial Park, Wuhan Economic Development Zone, with a total area of about 267,000 square meters, integrating the research and development, production, assembly, testing and delivery of aviation products such as urban manned aerial vehicles and unmanned aerial vehicles, and is the production and manufacturing base and product delivery center of Geely Science and Technology Aviation Business.
The base has the first automated production line of general aviation aircraft composite materials in China, which can save more than 60% of labor costs compared with traditional hand-built aviation manufacturing production lines, and can achieve an annual output of more than 1,000 composite industrial-grade UAVs with an annual wingspan of more than 4 meters.
The XC-25 Double-Headed Dragon drone was unveiled at the ceremony site.
Xu Zhihao, CEO of Geely Technology Group, said:
"Geely General Aviation Manufacturing Base will make full use of Geely's mature supply chain system, manufacturing system and rich supplier resources to form obvious efficiency, quality and cost advantages." We will provide new impetus for Wuhan's industrial transformation and upgrading and high-quality economic development, and help Wuhan build itself into the 'General Aviation Capital of China'." ”
The XC-25 drone participated in the Chang'e-5 return capsule search mission
Geely General Aviation Manufacturing Base built the first industrial-grade UAV composite materials automated production line in China.
Geely Technology Group belongs to Geely Holding Group, since 2017, the in-depth layout of general aviation business, currently has manned aircraft, logistics drones, industrial-grade drones, agriculture, forestry and plant protection UAVs and other product lines, the formation of "product + service + software" aviation industry layout, and deep integration with other industries, the formation of aviation surveying and mapping, emergency rescue, public safety and other colorful consumption and application scenarios, to provide users with customized solutions.
It is worth mentioning that geely's XC-25 vertical take-off and landing fixed-wing UAV manufactured in Chengdu as a representative product of its aviation business, has participated in the "721" Henan rainstorm rescue, Shenzhou 12, Chang'e 5 return capsule search and other tasks, with long sailing time, large load and other performance characteristics, in the power inspection, emergency rescue, aerial surveying and mapping and other fields have been verified by practice and praised by many parties.
"As a domestic general aviation industry center, Wuhan has a leading general aviation industry cluster in china, with obvious advantages and great potential." Xu Zhihao said that China's general aviation industry has entered a period of rapid development, and in the future, Geely Technology's aviation business will continue to exert its industrial advantages, deepen its cultivation in Wuhan, and empower the transformation and upgrading of Wuhan's manufacturing industry.
