Shanghai Hugong Electric Group (上海沪工焊接集团股份有限公司, Shanghai Stock Exchange ticker 603131) is a Chinese industrial manufacturer specializing in welding and cutting equipment, founded in 1995 and headquartered at 7177 Waiqingsong Road, Qingpu District, Shanghai. The company operates a 1,001–5,000-employee organization with a product catalog spanning four major categories, 18 series, and 2,037 models: industrial welding equipment (gas shielded, manual arc, submerged arc, carbon arc gouging), general welding equipment (inverter manual arc, TIG, gas shielded, plasma cutting), robotic systems (intelligent welding packages, robot workstations, body-in-white lines), laser equipment (fiber laser cutting, laser welding, laser cleaning), CNC cutting equipment (planar, pipe intersect, portable), and welding/cutting accessories and consumables. Notable proprietary systems include the self-developed large pipeline robot with laser arc tracking and dual plasma/TIG welding, the binocular vision positioning pipe laser cutting machine, and a dual-head 30kW high-power gantry laser cutting solution for 8–30mm thick plate processing.

The company serves a horizontally diversified industrial customer base across automotive manufacturing, marine engineering, shipbuilding, petrochemical equipment, engineering machinery, pipeline construction, large steel structures, bridge construction, pressure vessel manufacturing, nuclear engineering, and coal mining machinery. Marquee reference projects include Three Gorges, Beijing Olympics venues, Shanghai Expo, Shanghai Disneyland, Shanghai Maglev, East Sea Bridge, West-East Gas Transmission, and Gezhouba. Revenue mechanics are predominantly hardware sales across the six product streams, with no publicly disclosed pricing. Go-to-market combines direct enterprise sales (nationwide service hotline 400-008-5559, sales hotline 021-51215999), branded e-commerce storefronts on Tmall and JD.com (with a Youzan mini-program), and industry events such as the Pudong Shipbuilding and Marine Engineering Industry Skills Competition. Global procurement partnerships with CEA, FANUC, and Hypertherm supply automation, robotics, and plasma cutting components integrated into the company's systems, while subsidiaries Shanghai Gas Welding Machine Factory Co., Ltd. and Shanghai Shenging Robotics Technology Co., Ltd. (上海燊星机器人科技有限公司) anchor adjacent operations.
