What Yifan Machinery Co. does

Zhengzhou Yifan Machinery Co., Ltd. (trading as YIFAN) is a privately held Chinese manufacturer of crushing and screening equipment for mining, construction, and infrastructure applications. Founded in 2000 and headquartered in Zhengzhou (with a referenced Beijing office), the company produces a full portfolio of mobile and stationary crushers (jaw, cone, and impact), vertical shaft impact (VSI/VI Series) sand making machines, vibrating screens and feeders, sand washing and fine-material recovery systems, belt conveyors, and complete aggregate, stone, and sand production lines. Its proprietary technologies include the patented triangular round impeller for VSI crushers, the world-level hydraulic cone crusher developed through R&D cooperation with German Hartz, the SS Series fine sand collecting system, and crawler-mounted hydraulic mobile crushing stations. Project capacities delivered range from 50 t/h sand lines up to 3,000,000 TPY limestone aggregate installations.

Yifan's revenue model is hardware-centric, generating the majority of sales from equipment manufacturing and direct enterprise project contracts to cement majors (Lafarge, China Huaxin Cement), state-owned infrastructure groups (China Railway Wuju), and mining operators in over 30 countries. Through its affiliated SANME brand, the company also offers EPCO (Engineering, Procurement, Construction, Operation) services for full aggregate production projects, layering professional services onto its equipment base. Pricing is quote-based and order-specific with multi-year contract cadence, and go-to-market combines direct enterprise field sales, a global distributor recruitment program, multilingual websites (Chinese, Russian, French, Spanish, English), and recurring participation in major international construction and mining exhibitions including Bauma China, BICES, Canton Fair, Mining Indonesia, Infra Oman, and Egypt BIG5.

Customer segments are organized horizontally across mining, construction and aggregate production, infrastructure (highway/railway/water conservancy), and construction waste recycling, with secondary exposure to metallurgical and chemical processing. Logistics center on direct shipment from Chinese manufacturing facilities to customer sites across Africa, the Middle East, Southeast Asia, Central Asia, Europe, the Americas, and Oceania.
