Six Decades of Craftsmanship Driving Innovation Forward
Company Profile
Ertong Manufacturing was established in 1964 as a specialized conveyor manufacturing enterprise designated by the former Ministry of Machinery Industry. For over six decades, it has been deeply rooted in the field of non-standard conveying equipment, building a comprehensive service system that integrates R&D, production, and engineering installation. The company adheres to the core values of "innovation as the soul, quality as the life," achieving a differentiated competitive advantage through continuous technological innovation, striving to "have what others don’t, and excel where others do." As a primary drafting unit, it has participated in the formulation of national standards for conveyors.
Currently, the company operates two production bases: the Xigu Branch (specializing in the manufacturing of welded and riveted structural components) and the Gaolan Branch (focusing on machining, assembly, sandblasting, painting, and warehouse management), along with an independent financial settlement center.
Development History
(1964-1980)
[Technical Foundation Period: Serving National Strategy]
◆ In 1964, technical experts from Lanzhou General Machinery Factory (founded by Zuo Zongtang) established Lanzhou Second General Machinery Factory, becoming the first professional conveying equipment manufacturer in Northwest China, serving the national strategy of the "Third Front Construction."
◆ Breaking through Soviet technological blockades, it successfully developed the TD62 belt conveyor, which was applied in key national industrial bases such as Baiyin Nonferrous Metals, Jinchuan Group, and Jiugang Group, establishing its status as an industry technical benchmark.
◆ In 1970, it undertook the reinforcement project of Lanzhou Zhongshan Iron Bridge, pioneering the cross-industry service of machinery manufacturing enterprises in major civil engineering projects.
(2001-2015)
[Technical Breakthrough Period: Independent R&D and Iteration]
◆ In 2001, it pioneered the "Belt Strong Deviation Correction Device," solving the industry's safety operation challenges and obtaining a national utility model patent.
◆ Supporting the Western Development Strategy: It developed China's first B1000L=35 meter mobile belt conveyor (for the Salt Lake Group's million-ton potash project) and the longitudinal and spiral feeding unit (for the Qinghai CITIC Guoan million-ton potash project).
◆ Innovating the clean conveying technology system: The pressure-resistant electric stone plate chain elevator (for East Hope Group) and the suspension-free bearing screw conveyor (for the 279th Factory of the Ministry of Ordnance Industry) filled the technical gaps in special working conditions.
(2016-2024)
[Innovation Leadership Period: Intelligent and Green Upgrades]
◆ Developed the world's first "Hermetic Snake Scraper Conveyor System," achieving precise material conveying in complex spaces (for Salt Lake Lanke Lithium).
◆ Constructed a fully sealed conveying solution: The pressure-resistant fully sealed belt conveyor and chain bucket conveyor (for Xinjiang Tianye Group) achieved zero dust leakage, increasing the efficiency of calcium carbide conveying by 40%.
◆ Serving the "Belt and Road" Initiative: It provided a complete intelligent conveying system for Bolivia's National Lithium Carbonate Company, exporting Chinese manufacturing standards.
