According to Fortune Business Insights, the machine control system market size is projected to grow from USD 5.64 billion in 2023 to USD 9.20 billion by 2030. FJD recognizes this trend and has developed the FJD 3D Excavator Guidance System, a cutting-edge tool that has significantly improved operational precision and efficiency on the construction site. In this blog, we'll shine a spotlight on how FJD's smart guidance system helped boost the performance of SANY's excavators in earthwork.
About SANY
Headquartered in China, SANY is the 3rd-largest heavy equipment manufacturer in the world. It is especially known for its concrete machinery, for which it is globally ranked No.1. It is also a major supplier of excavators, cranes, wheel loaders, reach stackers, forklift trucks, and other heavy machines in more than 180 countries and regions.
Yet, many of SANY's most recent generation of excavators are not equipped with a factory guidance system or any other viable alternatives. This shortfall not only raises questions about the manufacturers' understanding of the industry's needs but also poses a significant challenge for potential buyers and contractors, leading to frustration that may hinder decision-making and ultimately discourage potential purchases.
Strategic Decision from SANY
When SANY reached out to FJD through official channels, this global manufacturing giant was grappling with the absence of an on-board intelligent guidance system—a critical issue that has been complained about by buyers, as more and more operators request such smart system to facilitate their excavation and this demand is becoming more urgent.
According to SANY, the reliance on manual operation not only led to inefficiencies but also created a burden of pressure for operators to excavate in the complex terrains. The lack of an intelligent system in the cab has disappointed their machine operators, and they need to partner with a leading provider of such guidance systems.
After a period of trying out some guidance systems of the same kind from big brands on the market, SANY found that their substantial prices were not justified, particularly when coupled with subpar technical support in China and other regions. This reality prompted SANY to consider another alternative—one that promised both cost-effectiveness and reliability.
After industry research and product tryout, SANY sought a strategic partnership with FJD, a company renowned for its innovative precision technologies in digital construction. The partnership combines SANY's expertise in conventional construction machinery with FJD's cutting-edge digital solutions, marking a significant milestone for both companies.
