On May 21, 2025, at the construction site of a large sports stadium in Saudi Arabia, a boom-type aerial work platform from China was operating efficiently. Agent Wei Ya Ge shared his experience with the media: "The intelligent design and stability of Chinese equipment far exceeded expectations. They have become our core tools for dealing with complex construction challenges."
Intelligent technology empowers complex scenarios
Wei Ya Ge specifically mentioned the intelligent control system of the equipment: "A single handle can synchronously control lifting, translation and rotation, and the operation is as smooth as a precision instrument. What's more amazing is that when the hydraulic system or engine is abnormal, the equipment will automatically switch to safe mode and issue an early warning, avoiding the risk of sudden failure." This function shows the breakthrough of domestic aerial work platforms in electronic control technology.
Adaptability wins market reputation
In the dusty desert environment, the fully enclosed dustproof structure and noise reduction design of the equipment perform well. "Even in construction sites with frequent sandstorms, the engine and hydraulic system can still operate stably, and the maintenance cycle is shortened by more than 30% compared with other equipment." Wei Ya Ge added. In addition, the platform's ±90° rotation function and compact chassis design allow it to flexibly shuttle between narrow steel structure gaps, perfectly replacing traditional scaffolding.
Cost-effectiveness leverages the global market
As one of the first agents in the Middle East to introduce Cathay aerial work platforms, Viage said frankly: "The procurement cost of Chinese equipment is only 60% of similar products, but the performance is not inferior." This advantage is consistent with the feedback from emerging markets such as Africa and South America-Chinese manufacturing is rapidly occupying the global market share with its high cost-effectiveness.
Industry Outlook: Technology Drives the Future
As Cathay Machinery accelerates the layout of intelligent and green energy tracks, overseas customers' expectations for "Chinese Smart Manufacturing" continue to heat up. Innovative functions such as VR virtual control and remote diagnosis launched by companies such as Tuoou Technology have attracted buyers from many countries in Europe and Southeast Asia to negotiate cooperation. Viage concluded: "From 'price-performance first' to 'technology-led', aerial work platforms are reshaping the industry landscape."
