From Spark to Smart: Xionggu Fuels Chengdu's Welding Industry Transformation

When discussing "smart manufacturing" in Chengdu, intelligent welding is empowering new quality productive forces. Welding, a traditional industry that sounds like it involves "sparkling flames," is quietly getting "smarter" and radiating a wisdom-infused glow.

On the afternoon of December 18, 2025, a grand industry event focusing on the field of intelligent welding was held with great pomp in Chengdu. Experts, scholars, and enterprise representatives from across the country gathered together to engage in in-depth discussions on the intelligent transformation of welding technology and its future development trends. This forum was jointly organized by several authoritative institutions, including the Chengdu Intelligent Welding Equipment Industry Association and the Sichuan Welding Society. With the theme of "Empowering with New Quality, Shaping the Future with Smart Manufacturing," it collectively drew a promising blueprint for technological innovation paths, industrial upgrading directions, and green development models.

During the special report session, seven experts from universities and enterprises shared their latest research achievements in the field of intelligent welding. The content covered comprehensive solutions for intelligent welding robots in all scenarios, as well as cutting-edge technologies such as welding in extreme environments and underwater welding.

Xiong Jian, General Manager of Chengdu Xionggu Jiashi Electrical Co., Ltd., stated in an interview, "Xionggu's intelligent welding robots will undertake many repetitive, simple tasks that welders are reluctant to perform. As intelligent welding technology continues to advance, it will create a significant demand for the supply chain and upstream and downstream industrial chains of the welding industry. Particularly in terms of intelligence and digitization, intelligent welding technology will provide a powerful driving force for the upgrading and replacement of the entire industrial chain."

From traditional craftsmanship to intelligent technology, the intelligent upgrade of the welding industry is steadily progressing. The intelligent and green development of welding is bound to inject a strong new impetus into the transformation and upgrading of the basic manufacturing industry.
