Recently, JUGAO CNC MACHINE, a leading Chinese high-end intelligent manufacturing enterprise, successfully held a five-day on-site training program in Cairo, Egypt, focusing on the operation and maintenance of pipe bending machines. This training not only deepened technological cooperation between China and Egypt in the industrial manufacturing sector but also injected new technological momentum into the transformation and upgrading of Egypt's local manufacturing industry.
Technological Empowerment, Localized Training Assists Industrial Upgrading
This training was primarily aimed at technical personnel from manufacturing companies in Egypt that have purchased JUGAO series intelligent pipe bending machines. JUGAO CNC MACHINE dispatched a technical team led by senior engineer Mr. Wang, carrying training materials specifically designed for the Middle East market and a multilingual operation manual, to conduct hands-on, on-site training in customer production workshops.
The training covered comprehensive operation of JUGAO's latest generation CNC pipe bending machine:
• Basic Operation and Programming: From machine interface familiarization to programming complex 3D pipe bending paths
• Mold Installation and Calibration: Specialized setup techniques for the characteristics of commonly used pipe materials in Egypt
• Precision Control Technology: How to maintain a bending angle accuracy of ±0.1°
• Fault Diagnosis and Preventive Maintenance: Establishing a localized maintenance knowledge system
• Safety Standards and Efficiency Optimization: Safe operating procedures that meet international standards
"We don't just sell machines, we provide complete solutions," said Li Ming, JUGAO's Overseas Training Manager, at the training opening ceremony. "Through this in-depth on-site technology transfer, we hope to truly help our Egyptian partners improve their production capabilities."
Practical Focus, Solving Real-World Manufacturing Problems
Unlike traditional classroom training, this training was conducted entirely in the customer's production workshop, focusing on practical teaching of common pipe processing needs in the Egyptian manufacturing industry.
Ahmed Samir, Technical Director of Nile Industries, an Egyptian automotive parts manufacturer, shared his experience: “Previously, we always encountered springback accuracy issues when processing air conditioning pipes. JUGAO engineers not only taught us how to adjust compensation parameters but also helped us analyze the characteristics of local Egyptian steel, providing customized solutions. This targeted guidance was invaluable.”
During the training, the technical team also provided equipment adaptability adjustments specifically tailored to common pipe types and climate conditions in Egypt, ensuring optimal machine performance in the local environment.
Deepening Cooperation, Building a New Manufacturing Ecosystem for the Belt and Road Initiative
This training activity is an important part of JUGAO's technical cooperation plan in the Middle East and North Africa. With the deepening of the Belt and Road Initiative, Chinese intelligent manufacturing technology and Egypt's industrialization goals in Vision 2030 have formed a strategic alignment.
Mohamed Elbayari, representative of the Egyptian General Authority for Investment and Free Zones, pointed out: “Egypt is vigorously developing its automobile manufacturing, air conditioning production, and furniture industries, all of which require high-level pipe processing capabilities. Companies like JUGAO bring not only advanced equipment, but more importantly, the transfer of technical knowledge and skills, which perfectly aligns with our goal of cultivating local technical talent.”
Future Outlook: Establishing a Regional Technical Service Center
Based on the success of this training program, JUGAO announced plans to establish a regional technical service center in Egypt. This center will undertake the following functions:
1. Providing timely technical support to customers in North Africa and the Middle East
2. Regularly conducting advanced technical training and certification courses
3. Conducting product adaptation research and development tailored to local market needs
4. Establishing a spare parts inventory to shorten repair response time
“We believe Egypt can become our technical hub in Africa,” said Zhang Wei, Director of International Business at JUGAO. “Over the next three years, we plan to train more than 100 certified technicians in Egypt and are considering collaborating with local vocational colleges to develop specialized pipe processing technology courses.”
Customer Testimonials: The Practical Results of Technology Transfer
Egyptian companies participating in the training expressed that the gains far exceeded their expectations. Khaled, production manager of Pyramid Climate, a well-known Egyptian air conditioner manufacturer, stated, "After this training, our pipe bending production efficiency has increased by 30%, and the scrap rate has decreased by 15%. More importantly, our technicians can now independently program and complete complex multi-bend products, something that previously had to be outsourced to foreign experts."
Another furniture company that participated in the training was pleasantly surprised to find that they can now process more complex designer metal furniture frames, opening the door to the high-end market for their products.
Conclusion
JUGAO CNC MACHINE's on-site training event in Egypt was not only a commercial technical service but also a microcosm of Sino-Egyptian manufacturing technology cooperation. In the wave of globalization in intelligent manufacturing, this kind of in-depth technology transfer and talent cultivation is becoming an important bridge connecting Chinese innovation with the global market. With the development of more similar collaborations, the competitiveness and innovation capabilities of Egypt's manufacturing industry are expected to be substantially enhanced, injecting continuous momentum into regional economic development.
