In October 2025, the winners of China Machinery Industry Science and Technology Award —the highest national-level scientific and technological accolade in the machinery sector, established by China Machinery Industry Federation and Chinese Mechanical Engineering Society—were officially announced. Huachangda Intelligent Equipment Group Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "HCD Group") was honored with the Third Prize of the Technological Invention Award under the China Machinery Industry Science and Technology Award for its project "AR-Assisted Technology and Application Based on Intelligent Perception in Production Sites." This achievement signifies that HCD Group's R&D and application capabilities in AI industrial technology for high-end equipment, as well as its expertise and practical outcomes in integrating industrial intelligent perception with augmented reality technology, have received high recognition from national-level authoritative industry institutions.

In complex production environments such as high-end equipment manufacturing and the automotive industry, traditional operational models have long faced challenges such as difficulties in real-time monitoring of process execution, delayed detection of assembly errors or omissions, and over-reliance on manual expertise for quality control. The research and development of AR-assisted technology and application based on intelligent perception in production sites aims to fundamentally address these pain points. It creatively integrates artificial intelligence (AI) visual perception with augmented/mixed reality (AR/MR) technology, establishing a workshop-level "digital twin" perception and control assistance system. By leveraging intelligent perception methods like AI vision to capture critical manufacturing process information—including component fabrication or assembly status, process execution conditions, and manufacturing quality—and combining it with 3D positioning and virtual-real fusion display enabled by AR and MR technologies, the system performs real-time analysis through deep learning algorithms. This achieves 3D visual intelligent guidance for the manufacturing process, monitors production status and procedure compliance, and provides functions such as error/omission alerts and defect alarms, as well as online analysis and prediction of manufacturing quality.

AR-assisted technology and application based on intelligent perception in production sites, deeply integrates AI visual perception with augmented/mixed reality (AR/MR) to establish a workshop-level digital twin assistance system covering the full workflow of "perception – analysis – decision – guidance." By leveraging AI vision to capture assembly status, process execution, and quality information in real time, and utilizing AR/MR for three‑dimensional visual guidance and real‑time error prevention, the system enables "pre‑emptive prediction," "in‑process error prevention," and "real‑time operation guidance." This makes the manufacturing flow visible, processes optimizable, and product quality predictable, significantly enhancing transparency, controllability, and first‑pass yield in production.

The technology has already been piloted and validated across multiple high-end industrial scenarios, including aerospace, automotive manufacturing, and advanced equipment, demonstrating strong replicability and scalable value. Chen Ze, Vice Chairman and President of HCD Group, stated that HCD Group will take this achievement as an opportunity to continue focusing on technological R&D and industrial implementation, supporting the intelligent upgrade of the manufacturing sector. The company will deepen its strategy across three dimensions: technological depth, application expansion, and ecosystem collaboration: continuously exploring key technologies in robotics such as AI/AR/MR, digital twins, and embodied intelligence; standardizing and platformizing of the already validated technical solutions to provide rapidly deployable offerings for a wider range of manufacturing segments; actively collaborating with more universities, research institutions, industry partners, and developers to jointly enrich the AI application ecosystem and accelerate the scaled adoption of integrated smart manufacturing solutions.

The conferral of China Machinery Industry Science and Technology Award not only affirms HCD Group's commitment to advancing the digital transformation of manufacturing and fulfilling its corporate responsibility in supporting national strategies such as "Building a Manufacturing Powerhouse" and "Digital China," but also reinforces its resolve to serve the real economy through core technological innovation. HCD Group is ready to act as both an enabler and a companion, supporting the manufacturing sector in China and worldwide in moving toward a more efficient, precise, and intelligent future.
