It is estimated that by 2025, the global mining equipment market will surge to US$130.8 billion. At present, the energy layout in Europe and the United States continues to expand, while the equipment update in the Middle East and Africa is also accelerating, which has jointly promoted the prosperity and development of the mining equipment manufacturing industry. In order to stand out in the fierce market competition and achieve high-quality development, many equipment manufacturing companies have turned their attention to overseas markets, hoping to improve their competitiveness and cultivate new quality productivity by entering overseas markets.
In Tianjin’s Xiqing Economic Development Zone, the mining equipment intelligent manufacturing industry cluster has emerged and has been listed as a municipal-level small and medium-sized enterprise characteristic industry cluster. In this area, the number of key mining equipment enterprises is as high as 49, and the total output value is approaching the 6 billion yuan mark. Many companies are moving forward steadily in the overseas market with remarkable results.
There are many vivid examples of large machinery manufacturing enterprises setting sail. For example, Orui (Tianjin) Industrial Group Co., Ltd. is a high-tech enterprise that focuses on manufacturing, researching and selling large-scale bulk material screening and dewatering equipment. The company has developed and produced a number of domestic “first” new products, which have successfully replaced imported products and even reached the international advanced level. Its high-end products have a market share of up to 75%, and it has set up factories and offices in countries such as Australia and Russia, with an annual output value of over 600 million yuan, demonstrating the company’s strong competitiveness in the international market.

Vibrating screen, a key machine in mining, is responsible for fine screening and grading of raw materials. Through the sieve holes, the mined mixed materials can be scientifically classified to meet the application needs of different fields. In recent years, with the strong demand for energy and minerals in society, the screening machinery industry has ushered in rapid development. Many internationally renowned companies have successfully launched large and extra-large vibrating screens with excellent performance and strong stability with the help of computer-aided design technology. However, the high prices of these imported equipment have also deterred many companies. Their prices are often more than three times that of domestic equipment, and even in some large equipment, the price gap is as high as 8 to 10 times.
In the fierce market competition, Orui is well aware of the gap in technology and process with foreign brands. In order to occupy a place in the overseas market, the company is determined to strengthen scientific and technological research and development and open up new international markets with brand strength.

In the fierce market competition, Orui Industry deeply realizes the gap in technology and process with foreign brands, and is committed to making breakthroughs in the field of intelligent manufacturing. The company has been deeply involved in the front line of mining and has made every effort to build an intelligent manufacturing system in order to occupy a place in the overseas market. Orui Industry integrates 3D printing technology and computer finite element analysis into the entire process of product design and production, and uses three-dimensional software and dynamic and static analysis methods to build a solid model of the vibrating screen, conduct strength analysis and avoid resonance, thereby ensuring the reliability of the product. After strict third-party testing, the vibration equipment developed by Orui ranks among the top products of the same type in the world in terms of performance, screening area and work efficiency, successfully achieving import substitution and breaking the long-term monopoly of foreign countries on this large equipment.
In April 2018, the new structural design version of Orui high-frequency screen was successfully debugged and put into use at the coal washing plant of the Northern Steel Group in Russia, which marked the successful entry of Orui screening machine into the Russian market and laid a solid foundation for the company’s international expansion.
The smooth commissioning and use of the equipment in Russia demonstrates the strength and influence of Orui Industry. The person in charge of the company emphasized that the high quality and excellent performance of the product are the basis for the company to enter the international market. He pointed out that before entering overseas markets, in-depth understanding of the international situation, keeping up with the national strategic layout, and planned deployment and promotion around national policies and goals are the keys to the success of enterprises. In recent years, the solid position of Ori Industries in the markets of Russia and Africa is a strong proof of these strategies.
Faced with the diversified demands of foreign markets for vibration machinery products, including large-scale, high efficiency, reliability and professionalism, Ori Industries actively responds, not only providing customized solutions, but also meeting the special needs of different industries through comprehensive and systematic services. Enterprises are gradually increasing their mining layout in the field of “non-coal” resources, further expanding the market share of screening equipment, and thus continuously improving their international competitiveness. Its rich screening equipment products have been widely used in many fields such as iron ore, sand and gravel mines, and dry stone resource recovery.

In the context of the new era, the manufacturing industry has been given a new definition and challenge. Orui Industrial responded positively and formed a professional R&D and design team of nearly 100 people, including professional postdoctoral fellows and returned overseas students. In order to further improve the intelligence level of the equipment, Orui has created a CMS equipment status monitoring system. By installing sensors on key parts of the equipment, the system can monitor and collect key data such as displacement, running trajectory, phase, bearings, gears and lubricating oil in real time. In addition, the system is also equipped with professional analysis tools that can conduct in-depth analysis and diagnosis of faults of components such as bearings and gears, and predict the service life of the equipment. Users can check the operation and status of the equipment at any time through mobile phone applications, as well as receive fault prediction and diagnosis information. This innovative technology not only improves the performance of the equipment, but also brings more value to domestic and foreign users.
Orui CMS Equipment Status Monitoring System: “Navigator” for Domestic and Foreign Markets
As an important cornerstone of the national industrial system, the development level of the mining machinery manufacturing industry directly reflects the industrial strength of a country. Under the background of dual circulation in domestic and foreign markets, especially with the country’s attention and support for basic industries such as energy, transportation and raw materials, mining machinery and equipment have ushered in unprecedented development opportunities.
In April this year, the State Administration of Mine Safety Supervision and other 7 departments jointly issued the “Guiding Opinions on Deepening the Construction of Intelligent Mines and Promoting the Development of Mine Safety”, which pointed out the direction for the intelligent construction of coal mines. By 2026, the proportion of intelligent production capacity of coal mines nationwide will strive to reach more than 60%. This policy promotion will undoubtedly bring greater market space for the mining machinery and equipment manufacturing industry.
Orui Company, as a leader in the industry, is actively responding to this challenge and opportunity. Through continuous innovation, product optimization and market expansion, Orui continues to improve its competitiveness. Among them, Orui CMS equipment status monitoring system has become a bright business card of the company, providing reliable equipment status information for domestic and foreign users, and has become an important basis for their decision-making.
