In September 2026, the Shanghai International Pipeline Exhibition, which has attracted much attention from the industry, was grandly opened at the National Convention and Exhibition Center (Shanghai). As one of the largest and most far-reaching annual events in the domestic pipeline industry, this exhibition brings together pipes, pipe fittings, connection technologies, processing equipment and supporting service companies from all over the world, providing a panoramic view of the latest technologies and product achievements in the pipeline industry chain. Jiangsu Yanruilin Precision Machinery Co., Ltd. brought its star product, the transfer type bilateral pier head machine, to a brilliant appearance. With the technical strength of the hard core and the on-site processing demonstration, the booth's popularity continued to explode, becoming one of the most popular focuses in the tube end forming equipment exhibition area of this exhibition.
At the exhibition site, the people in front of the booth of Research and Ruilin were full of people. The non-stop transmission type bilateral pier head prototype, combined with the neatly displayed samples of various precision forming pipe fittings, visually shows the excellent performance of the equipment in the forming and processing of metal pipe ends such as clamping pipe fittings and socket pipe fittings. Professional visitors from home and abroad stopped by to observe, and had in-depth exchanges with the Ruilin technical team on issues such as the processing accuracy, production efficiency, mold change method and scope of application of the equipment, and the atmosphere of on-site negotiations was warm.
Since its establishment 8 years ago, Jiangsu Yanruilin Precision Machinery Co., Ltd. has been focusing on the research and development, production and sales of pipe end forming equipment. With deep insight into the needs of the industry and continuous technical investment, it has created a full-scale pipe end forming equipment matrix covering DN12 to DN390. Its products are widely used in building water supply and drainage, HVAC systems, fire pipelines, industrial pipelines, automobile pipelines and other fields. It has been exported to Europe, the Americas, Southeast Asia and other countries and regions, serving more than 1000 customers worldwide, and has accumulated good reputation and brand influence in the industry.
The passive bilateral pier head machine at this exhibition is based on the in-depth investigation of the processing pain points of clamping pipe fittings, combined with the high-end intelligent equipment developed by many years of industry experience, and is specially designed for the metal pipe end forming needs of DN12 ~ DN50 specifications. The equipment adopts a bilateral symmetrical forming structure. The forming units on both sides can simultaneously process the pier ends of the pipe fittings, and the double-end forming process can be completed in one clamping. With the transmission feeding system, the pipe fittings are automatically transferred and positioned between the stations without manual handling and repeated clamping, which greatly reduces the auxiliary time and makes the whole line production rhythm more compact and efficient.
In terms of machining accuracy, the equipment adopts a high rigidity welded bed and a precision guided structure. With a hydraulic servo control system, the molding pressure is stable and adjustable to ensure that the molding dimensions of each product are highly consistent. In terms of mold changing efficiency, the equipment is standardized with a quick mold changing structure. Switching from one pipe fitting specification to another can be completed with a simple operation, effectively solving the pain points of cumbersome mold changing and long downtime of traditional equipment. To the extent of automation, the equipment can be seamlessly connected with automatic feeding and discharging mechanisms, and one person can take care of multiple equipment, which significantly reduces the overall labor cost.
In the live demonstration session, the stable high-speed beat of the equipment and the uniform molding effect won the audience's admiration. A number of professional visitors from the clamping pipe fittings, fire pipes and HVAC industry said that traditional single-station equipment requires two clamping when processing double-ended pier head pipe fittings, which is low in efficiency and poor in consistency. The processing method of "one-time clamping, double-ended forming, and automatic transmission" of the Yanrui Lin transfer bilateral pier head machine fundamentally solves the three major pain points of insufficient accuracy, low efficiency, and cumbersome die changing, which is very suitable for the current flexible production needs of multiple varieties and large quantities.
During the exhibition, Yanrui Lin booth also welcomed many overseas customers and traders to visit and negotiate. The company's foreign trade team explained the technical parameters, application scenarios and customized solutions of the equipment in detail to overseas customers with professional and efficient services, and provided one-on-one in-depth communication and selection suggestions for pipe fitting standards and production habits in different countries and regions. After observing the on-site demonstration, many overseas customers highly evaluated the molding accuracy, operational stability and production efficiency of the equipment, and conducted in-depth consultations on procurement intentions and customized solutions.
During the exhibition, the company also received a number of on-site intention orders and agents to negotiate. A number of pressure pipe fitting manufacturers from East China and South China have reached preliminary procurement intentions with us, and some overseas traders have conducted in-depth consultations with the company on regional agency matters. In an exclusive interview with the industry media during the same period of the exhibition, the technical director of Ruilin Technology shared wonderful views on the automation upgrade path of the tube end forming equipment, further expanding the brand's communication volume in the industry.
It is worth noting that with the rapid development of industries such as clamping pipe fittings and stainless steel water pipes, the demand for high-efficiency and high-precision pipe end forming equipment by downstream pipe fitting processing enterprises continues to climb, and the industry competition is also extending from stand-alone performance to the entire line automation capacity. The technical route of "automatic transmission, double-end synchronization, flexible production change" represented by the transfer type bilateral pier head machine is becoming an important direction for the upgrading of pipe end forming equipment. At this exhibition, Advantech demonstrated not only the hard core strength of a single device, but also its overall solution capability for future-oriented intelligent manufacturing.
The exhibition is not only a reviewing place for product strength, but also the best window for observing the wind direction of the industry. Judging from the exhibition lineup of this exhibition, the capabilities of automatic loading and unloading, mold quick change, CNC programming, etc. have become the main selling points of various exhibits. The focus of the audience's inquiry has also shifted from "whether it can be processed" to "how fast the beat, how long the change of production, and how high the yield is". This shift on the demand side confirms that the pipe processing industry is moving from scale expansion to a refined competition for quality and efficiency.
From the perspective of the industry structure, after years of technical accumulation, the domestic pipe end forming equipment has the strength to compete with international brands in terms of accuracy stability, automation and cost performance. Domestic manufacturers represented by Ruilin are accelerating the localization process of high-end tube forming equipment and occupying an increasingly important position in the global market through continuous R&D investment and a service network close to the market.
In addition to the hardcore product strength, the service system of Ruilin has also been well received by the audience. The company has established a rapid response mechanism from installation and commissioning, operation training to spare parts supply, promising standard delivery cycle and full life cycle technical support. Overseas customers also enjoy remote video guidance and online diagnostic services. Many old customers who have purchased many times rushed to the booth to exchange. They said that stable product quality and intimate after-sales service are the reasons for choosing R&D for a long time.
The exhibition is a window and a new starting point. The relevant person in charge of Ruilin said that the company will take this exhibition as an opportunity to continue to increase R&D investment, continuously improve the DN12 to DN390 full-specification product matrix, deepen the application of automation and intelligent technology in pipe end forming equipment, and further expand the service network at home and abroad to provide more efficient, more accurate and more reliable pipe end forming solutions for global customers. At the same time, we sincerely invite new and old customers to visit the Dongtai factory in Yancheng, Jiangsu Province to experience the quality and technology of R&D equipment.
