Recently, ICON (Zhejiang) Industrial Technology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "ICON") and Guangdong Ruihui Intelligent Technology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Ruihui Intelligent") officially signed a long-term strategic cooperation agreement. Senior executives and core R&D and marketing teams from both parties attended the signing ceremony. This event marks the establishment of a comprehensive, deep-level partnership between a leading domestic provider of core industrial control hardware and a top-tier enterprise in metal forming automation equipment. Together, they aim to drive the domestic substitution of control systems for production lines—covering automotive stamping, new energy sheet metal, and home appliance sheet metal—and to create a one-stop, autonomous, and controllable intelligent manufacturing solution for the stamping industry.
For a long time, domestic manufacturers of stamping automation equipment have faced significant practical challenges regarding high-end electronic control components—specifically, exorbitant prices for imports, unreliable delivery schedules, slow on-site technical support, a lack of customization, and inadequate after-sales warranty systems. Furthermore, the industry lacks standardized and institutionalized cooperation models between upstream and downstream partners, resulting in low efficiency in equipment R&D and commissioning, as well as high costs for final delivery.
