Sany Group is investing RMB30 billion to pivot from traditional manufacturing to AI-native robotics, essential for its survival over the next four decades. The company maintains an R&D intensity of approximately 5% of annual sales, having launched over 1,000 new products in five years, focusing on international markets.
New energy equipment sales surged to RMB 8.64 billion in 2025, marking a 115% year-on-year increase. Sany has achieved complete in-house development of its 'Core Three' power systems, ensuring technological independence.
The firm is also advancing towards 'unmanned swarms' for autonomous operations, exemplified by a record-setting autonomous fleet on the Beijing-Harbin Expressway. As Sany transitions to a 'Full-Chain Solution Provider,' offering integrated ecosystems and a capacity contracting model, it aims to redefine its role in the mining sector. The company's aggressive investments may disrupt traditional industry leaders.
