Shandong Zhangqiu Blower Co., Ltd. was founded in 1968 and has accumulated over fifty years of expertise and technical experience in the design, production, and manufacturing of blowers.

In 2023, Shandong Zhangqiu Blower signed a contract with Sipu Software to implement the SIPM/PLM project, initiating the construction of a centralized PLM system. This system supports the company’s organizational structure—comprising multiple R&D centers, production plants, and business units—and enables cross-company data sharing while maintaining necessary data isolation.

Key achievements of this implementation include:Standardizing product development processes and managing documentation for inputs, outputs, reviews, and other stages (ensuring all documents are complete, well-organized, and easily accessible);Ensuring full traceability and recordability throughout the development lifecycle, thereby strengthening project management capabilities and making processes controllable;Implementing tiered project management, where projects of different levels follow tailored workflows—offering flexibility while standardizing and streamlining the company’s design and R&D processes and enabling digital transformation of business workflows;Establishing an enterprise-wide “single code throughout” principle (a unified identifier used consistently across all business stages), providing robust BOM data support for deeper integration and rollout of production systems;Managing technical documentation—including drawings—in a BOM-centric manner;Implementing effective engineering change control across Shandong Zhangqiu Blower;Integrating seamlessly with CAD, ERP, CRM, OA, and MES systems, transforming the SIPM/PLM platform into a true enterprise-level hub for design/R&D management and product data governance;Leveraging the speed and traceability of digital networks to gradually establish electronic notification, approval, and review mechanisms—eliminating human errors and oversights common in manual processes;Standardizing document management by unifying and regulating drawings, inspection standards, product manuals, technical documents, project files, and coding rules related to products;Enabling enterprise-wide knowledge sharing;Facilitating cross-departmental collaboration.

Recently, Shandong Zhangqiu Blower purchased additional SIPM/PLM licenses from Sipu Software, expanding system coverage to more personnel and business functions.Sipu Software has long been committed to the R&D and application of PLM technologies, adhering to a craftsman’s spirit of continuous daily improvement. This dedication has forged SIPM/PLM’s rock-solid performance and reliability, making it the most cost-effective R&D management platform for manufacturing enterprises.

【Company Background】

Shandong Zhangqiu Blower Co., Ltd. was founded in 1968 and has accumulated over fifty years of technical expertise and experience in the design, production, and manufacturing of blowers. The company established two Sino-Japanese joint ventures and set up a subsidiary in the United States—becoming the first enterprise in China’s blower industry to establish an overseas branch at that time.

The company formulated an overarching development strategy: “Extend our core business, pursue innovation, engage in joint ventures and cooperation, and build a stronger Zhangqiu Blower.” It also adopted the work philosophy: “If we do it, we do it better.” Through continuous growth, the company has evolved into a modern, large-scale mechanical manufacturing enterprise integrating the design, production, and sales of Roots blowers, centrifugal blowers, industrial pumps, ventilation fans, industrial water treatment systems and equipment, pneumatic conveying systems, electrical equipment, and MVR (Mechanical Vapor Recompression) evaporation, concentration, and crystallization technologies and complete systems.

Its industrial park spans 430,000 square meters, providing ample space for leapfrog development and international joint ventures and collaborations. On July 7, 2011, the company successfully listed on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange (stock code: 002598), marking another significant milestone in its corporate history.

In response to the deepening national industrial policies and supply-side structural reforms—and leveraging its own strengths and market opportunities—the company has implemented a related diversification strategy, actively establishing three major industrial platforms: intelligent manufacturing, environmental water treatment, and new material development and application. Through sustained increases in R&D investment and enhanced integration of external resources, all three platforms have achieved rapid growth.
