On September 16, Mr. Pan Shiqun, Chairman of Changsha Zhonglian Pump Industry, led the company's chief engineer team to Jiangsu University's School of Energy and Power Engineering for a special exchange event. Centered around the themes of "precise talent attraction and collaborative technology development," the visit not only finalized a multi-level plan for talent recruitment and cultivation but also fostered deep consensus on cutting-edge technological cooperation in the field of pumps—laying a solid foundation of both talent and innovation to drive the company's high-quality growth.
During discussions on the talent recruitment and development program, both parties, based on the R&D team building and technological upgrade needs of Zhonglian Pump Industry, have established a collaborative system that combines talent attraction with internal cultivation. Specifically targeting the university's two flagship programs—Fluid Machinery and Power Engineering—both sides have agreed to create a "targeted recruitment channel for fresh graduates." This initiative will involve early engagement during students' internship phases, focusing on customized training tailored to core competencies such as pump system design and performance testing. Outstanding talents identified through this process will be directly matched with R&D positions at the company, ensuring a rapid infusion of fresh technical expertise.
During the technical exchange session, both sides focused on the industry's key technical challenges in the pump sector, engaging in practical discussions. The technical team from Zoomlion Pump Industry, meanwhile, combined Multistage centrifugal pump 、 Long-axis pump The practical experience in the production and R&D of these products has highlighted three core requirements: optimizing energy consumption for highly efficient and energy-saving pumps, enhancing the wear resistance of pump materials under extreme environmental conditions, and ensuring the stability of intelligent variable-frequency control systems for pumps. Meanwhile, experts from Jiangsu University, leveraging their cutting-edge research resources—including the nation-level large-scale open-type pump test facility and the high-temperature, high-pressure, extreme-condition pump testing platform—shared their latest findings in areas such as fluid machinery flow-field simulations and energy-efficient upgrades for pump systems. Both sides also engaged in detailed discussions on specifics like dynamic performance testing standards for the experimental setups and the procedures for simulating extreme operating conditions, ultimately agreeing to kick off collaboration with the joint development of an "efficient and energy-saving pump prototype," aiming to seamlessly translate groundbreaking research outcomes into real-world production applications.
Jiangsu University's School of Energy and Power Engineering places great importance on this collaboration. Vice Dean and Professor Gao Bo serves as the Director of the Institute of Fluid Machinery. / Research Secretary and Associate Professor Zhang Ning, along with Associate Professor Li Zhong, participated fully in the discussions, providing expert support in areas such as optimizing talent-development programs and facilitating connections between research resources. After two days of thorough exchanges, both sides not only clarified the specific pathways for industry-academia-research collaboration but also forged a strong mutual understanding on fostering two-way talent mobility and driving collaborative technological innovation. Moving forward, they will work together to fully integrate the universities' cutting-edge research strengths with enterprises' industrial resources, paving the way for mutually beneficial and win-win outcomes.
This deepened collaboration with Jiangsu University marks a crucial step for Zhonglian Pump Industry in implementing its strategy of "strengthening the enterprise through talent and thriving through technology." Moving forward, Zhonglian Pump Industry will continue to deepen its industry-academia-research partnerships with universities, leveraging talent to drive technological breakthroughs and using innovation to propel industrial upgrades—thereby injecting even greater vitality into the high-quality development of the pump industry.
