On July 4, the 2026 "Industrial Mother Machine Plus" Supply-Demand Matching Event for Hundreds of Industries and Thousands of Enterprises was successfully held in Shanghai under the theme Kicking off the 15th Five-Year Plan Period: Pooling Wisdom in Shanghai for Win-Win Collaboration.
This event is intended to implement national strategic arrangements and scale up the application of innovative industrial mother machine products. More than 400 representatives attended the event, including officials from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and local industry and information technology competent authorities, as well as personnel from industrial mother machine manufacturers, end-user enterprises, research institutes, investment and financing institutions and other relevant sectors.
A host of key outcomes were unveiled at the event, marking the official launch of the construction of the Comprehensive Service Platform for Supply and Demand Matching of Industrial Mother Machines.
As a strategic foundational industry vital to national security and overall economic development, the industrial mother machine sector has delivered remarkable achievements in recent years. Its output and consumption volume account for approximately one-third of the global total, with batch breakthroughs achieved in high-precision five-axis machining centers, composite machine tools and other core equipment.
This public welfare-oriented intelligent platform centers on the high-quality development of the industrial mother machine industry, driven by application scenarios and targeted at supporting and benefiting enterprises. Led by the Equipment Industry Development Center of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the platform is jointly developed by multiple partners relying on the technical capabilities of the Luculent Suchang Industrial Internet Platform.
The platform eliminates industrial data silos, improves standardized channels for supply-demand connection, and aims to build an authoritative one-stop service platform for cooperation and matchmaking within the industrial mother machine sector.
It integrates industrial resources and boosts AI-enabled empowerment. Featuring abundant resources, extensive coverage, full-spectrum functions and trusted security, the platform provides precise market matching and professional technical support.
Basic Services: Compile policy documents and release industry updates to ensure policies are fully implemented down to the grass-roots level.
Supply-Demand Matching: Establish databases for products, demands and enterprises. AI-powered intelligent matching facilitates scenario-based joint innovation and accelerates product iteration and upgrading.
Data Visualization: Develop industrial data maps to showcase leading enterprises and flagship products, and aggregate proven solutions for typical application scenarios.
Intelligent Analysis: Expand data accumulation and conduct AI-driven data analysis to provide robust support for decision-making.
Ecosystem Development: Tap into the value of data elements and foster a new industrial mother machine ecosystem featuring co-construction, resource sharing and integrated innovation.
The platform links local governments and industrial associations, brings together manufacturers, end users, universities, research institutes and investment & financing bodies, and leverages expert think tanks and digital technologies to realize cross-industry multi-party cooperation and open resource sharing.
In the long run, the platform will keep expanding its service scope to cover core segments of high-end equipment. It will strive to build an intelligent brain for integrated supply-demand coordination across the equipment industry, so as to bolster the construction of a manufacturing powerhouse.
Under the guidance of the Equipment Industry Development Center of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, Luculent will give full play to the advantages of Suchang, its national cross-industry and cross-region industrial internet platform. Together with all participating organizations, Luculent will advance the construction and operation of the supply-demand matching service platform for industrial mother machines, promote large-scale adoption of innovative industrial mother machine products, and contribute technological expertise to the advancement of new industrialization and the building of a manufacturing powerhouse.
