The Hexagon Smart Manufacturing Center in Dongying has become a flagship example of how Chinese cities are accelerating their transition toward intelligent, high-precision, and digitally integrated manufacturing.
Established in partnership with the global technology group Hexagon, the center introduces advanced measuring equipment, digital-twin technologies, and automated quality-control systems, providing manufacturers across northern China with access to high-end industrial solutions. The center’s inauguration represents not only a technological upgrade for Dongying’s manufacturing base but also a new model for regional industrial collaboration.
Inside the facility, rows of robotic systems, optical scanning equipment, and metrology tools operate in a tightly integrated environment. A highlight is the ultra-high-precision coordinate-measuring machine (CMM), capable of detecting deviations as small as 4.5 microns—precision levels crucial for the aerospace, automotive, and new-energy sectors that rely on fault-free components.
Since opening, the center has supported companies in fields such as mold casting, offshore wind equipment manufacturing, and petrochemical machinery. By providing real-time data visualization, digital simulations, and automated inspection, the center helps firms reduce production costs, shorten testing cycles, and improve product reliability—key requirements for competing in both domestic and international markets.
For Dongying, the Smart Center is an essential building block in its strategy to upgrade from traditional manufacturing toward high-tech industrial clusters. Local officials note that the city aims to build an innovation-driven industrial ecosystem where intelligent equipment, digital platforms, and advanced materials work synergistically.
The center also serves an educational function. Training programs, technical workshops, and joint research initiatives are being introduced to help cultivate a skilled local workforce prepared for Industry 4.0 applications. Hexagon’s global presence further brings international perspectives, enabling Dongying to integrate into global supply chains more seamlessly.
By bridging traditional industries with world-class smart-manufacturing capabilities, the Hexagon center is strengthening Dongying’s competitiveness and supporting China’s broader push toward high-quality industrial development.
