Jiangsu Hengli Hydraulic

What Jiangsu Hengli Hydraulic does

Jiangsu Hengli Hydraulic Co., Ltd. (江苏恒立液压股份有限公司) is a Chinese hydraulic transmission control and system integration manufacturer founded in 1990 and listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange under ticker 601100. The company produces a comprehensive portfolio spanning hydraulic cylinders, high-pressure variable displacement piston pumps, hydraulic motors, directional/pressure/flow control valves, electro-hydraulic proportional and servo valves, threaded cartridge valves, pneumatic components, linear transmission (ball screws and guides), precision castings, surface treatment/sealing technology, and complete electro-hydraulic system integration. Its products target twelve industrial verticals including construction machinery, agricultural and forestry machinery, mining machinery, marine and port equipment, metallurgical equipment, metal forming, tunnel boring equipment, energy and water conservancy, and lifting and handling machinery. The company claims world-record scale products including the world's largest pile driving hydraulic cylinder and the first 156-meter pile driving closed-loop energy recovery system.

The company serves over 2,000 customers across 30+ countries, with named enterprise customers including Putzmeister (2023 Excellent Supplier Award) and Siemens Energy (2024 strategic spraying partnership). It operates 12 manufacturing bases and 7 R&D centers across China, Germany, the United States, Japan, Mexico, and Indonesia, and employs 10,000+ people globally. The business model is B2B direct sales — quote-based pricing on industrial hydraulic components and systems — with go-to-market via direct sales offices, major international trade shows (bauma, CONEXPO-CON/AGG, AGRISHOW), and the corporate website. Distribution is direct to equipment manufacturers rather than through dealer channels. The company reports sales-led GTM with localized manufacturing and engineering support across regions.

The company is vertically integrated from precision casting to finished hydraulic systems, leveraging its owned subsidiaries including Inline Hydraulic GmbH (Germany, heavy-duty piston pumps), Hattori Seiko Co., Ltd. (Japan, precision parts), Shanghai Lixin Hydraulic (industrial valves), Changzhou Hengli Pneumatic Technology, and Changzhou Hengli Surface Technology. Leadership includes Wang Liping (汪立平) as Chairman and Qiu Yongning (邱永宁) as Group President. The company has been actively expanding its global footprint, with notable recent moves including the June 2025 grand opening of its largest overseas production base in Monterrey, Mexico, the 2025 establishment of an Indonesia branch, and multiple new product launches in 2024–2025 targeting ultra-large hydraulic systems, aluminum casting, and surface treatment services.
