2026-05-02

The Type II automated batching system for friction materials (automotive brake pads), designed and manufactured by Wuxi Xielì Automation Equipment Co., Ltd., has been in stable, high-performance operation at the new plant of Jiangsu Fangyi Friction Materials Co., Ltd.—the Jiangsu Fangxing OE Intelligent Brake Pad Factory—for more than a year since its commissioning. In January 2026, the system successfully passed the final acceptance inspection conducted by the customer. The successful deployment of Wuxi Xielì’s equipment at Jiangsu Fangxing underscores its comprehensive advantages of environmental friendliness, precision, intelligence, and stability, perfectly aligning with Jiangsu Fangxing’s strategic objective of breaking foreign monopolies and advancing toward high-end intelligent manufacturing. This achievement not only demonstrates the maturity of domestically produced, high-end batching equipment for friction materials but also signifies that such equipment is now fully capable of replacing imported solutions in world-class smart manufacturing environments, thereby providing robust support for the Chinese friction materials industry as it strives to move upmarket and achieve breakthroughs in high-end production.

Friction material ( Automotive brake pads )II Complete set of automatic batching equipment In New Factory of Jiangsu Fangyi Friction Materials Co., Ltd. Factory (i.e., Jiangsu Fangxing OE Smart Brake Pad Factory ) Since being put into operation over a year ago, the equipment has demonstrated stable operation and outstanding performance. 2026 year 1 The project shall pass the final acceptance by the user.

Jiangsu Fangyi Intelligent New Factory (Jiangsu Fangxing) is a top-tier, high-end facility in China’s friction materials industry. OE As a benchmark enterprise in the domestic substitution of OEM-branded brake pads, this company sets its hardware equipment to the highest configuration standards. Why, then, did it choose Wuxi Xielì’s friction-material batching system? Can Wuxi Xielì’s system truly meet the company’s stringent manufacturing requirements for “high-end, intelligent, and green” production? The answer is already clear.

This equipment has stood out and been selected by high-end users, successfully passing their final acceptance, primarily due to the following key core advantages:

1.  Exceptional operational stability and batching accuracy

As the total investment exceeds 5 hundreds of millions of yuan, benchmarked against world-class standards OE (In-house OEM) For the smart brake-pad manufacturing plant, Jiangsu Fangxing places extremely high demands on the reliability of its production equipment. Wuxi Xielì’s equipment has not only been in stable operation for over a year in actual production but also perfectly meets the plant’s requirement for “millimeter-level precision.” This exceptional metrological accuracy and long-term operational stability serve as the fundamental foundation for ensuring consistent formulation and superior product quality in high-end brake pads.

2.  Outstanding environmental performance (no dust emissions)

Jiangsu Fangxing is committed to building a green, intelligent manufacturing facility and places exceptionally high demands on the workshop environment. Wuxi Xielì’s batching system has, in practical applications, perfectly met the stringent requirement of “zero dust emissions during the batching process.” This achievement is attributable to its intelligent distributed control–based constant-pressure, energy-efficient, and highly effective centralized dust-collection system. The complete system enables intelligent dust extraction at over a hundred dust-generation points, effectively preventing dust from escaping at the source, thereby significantly improving the workshop working environment and aligning with the green production philosophy of modern factories.

3.  Deeply Integrated Digital Interaction Capabilities

Jiangsu Fangxing’s workshop is equipped with a digital large display, enabling the enterprise to transparently monitor production capacity, yield rate, and process progress in real time, thus achieving end-to-end transparent management. Wuxi Xielì’s batching system features highly mature digital interfaces that allow seamless integration with the factory’s intelligent management system, enabling the real-time upload of all dynamic data from the batching process. This robust data-interaction capability makes it an indispensable component of the entire smart factory’s “industrial symphony.”

4.  High-end compatible OE Rigorous process standards for supporting components

Jiangsu Fangxing aims to break the foreign-invested monopoly and provide component supply to mainstream automakers such as Geely, SAIC, and BYD. The fact that Wuxi Xielì’s equipment can operate reliably in these high-standard plants and successfully pass final acceptance testing demonstrates that its process capabilities have fully met the stringent requirements of the world-class OEM supply chain, thereby providing robust underlying equipment support for China’s “domestic substitution” strategy in the high-end brake pad sector.

Overall, Wuxi Xielì Friction Materials ( Automotive brake pads )II The successful deployment of the automated batching complete set of equipment at Jiangsu Fangxing is attributable to its comprehensive advantages—environmental friendliness, precision, intelligence, and stability—which perfectly align with Jiangsu Fangxing’s strategic objective of breaking the foreign monopoly and advancing toward high-end intelligent manufacturing. This milestone not only signifies the maturity of domestically produced high-end friction-material batching equipment but also demonstrates that such equipment now possesses the robust capabilities to replace imported solutions in international high-end smart-manufacturing settings, thereby supporting the Chinese friction-material industry in its drive to achieve high-end transformation and breakthroughs.
