Recently, the Harbin Institute of Technology Alumni International Science and Technology Innovation Ecosystem Conference and the finals of the HIT Global Alumni Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition concluded successfully in Zhangjiang Science City, Pudong New Area, Shanghai. Shaanxi Zhongkeyuantai Power Technology Co., Ltd. (Shaanxi Zhongke Power) stood out from hundreds of cutting-edge science and technology projects worldwide thanks to its technological breakthroughs and successful industrial implementation in the core power field for low-altitude aircraft. The company was awarded second prize in the competition, demonstrating its robust scientific and technological prowess and highlighting the innovative vitality of China’s domestic low-altitude propulsion industry. This achievement also provides a vivid practical illustration of HIT’s school motto: “Strict standards and meticulous craftsmanship.”

This competition has brought together top science and technology innovators from more than 20 regions around the world. All over 50 finalists boast disruptive technological potential, industry-leading capabilities, and practical feasibility for real-world applications. In response to the Party Central Committee’s call to build an international center for scientific and technological innovation, Zhongke Dynamics has united its forces, fostered collaborative innovation, and entered the competition with core power components and supporting solutions for low-altitude aerial vehicles. Relying on its independently developed small aviation rotor engine technology system, Zhongke Dynamics has earned high praise from judges and industry experts.

With years of deep expertise in the field of aviation rotor power systems, Zhongke Power has become a benchmark enterprise in China’s core low-altitude economic power sector. This award serves as dual validation of the company’s technological strength and industrial value. The company’s flagship products include a full range of air-cooled and water-cooled rotor engines, with power outputs spanning from 8 to 100 kW. These engines can be precisely tailored to a diverse array of low-altitude applications, including fixed-wing aircraft, rotary-wing drones, EVTOLs (electric vertical takeoff and landing vehicles), and flying motorcycles, thereby filling a significant market gap in China’s low-altitude general aviation rotor power segment. Among these products, the 25-kW rotor hybrid range extender has successfully addressed the challenge of limited endurance in electric rotary-wing drones. Meanwhile, the rotor generator can meet the demands of special scenarios such as emergency power supply. Several key products have already established deep collaborations with leading domestic manufacturers of unmanned helicopters and flying cars, enabling large-scale commercial deployment of these technological breakthroughs. Some of these products have even secured hundreds of millions in pre-orders, highlighting the international competitiveness of China’s domestically developed low-altitude power technology.

Behind the technological innovations lies Zhongke Dongli’s deeply integrated innovation ecosystem that seamlessly connects industry, academia, and research. Relying on the technological strengths of universities such as Harbin Institute of Technology, the company has established close strategic partnerships with top institutions including Northwestern Polytechnical University and Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics. This collaboration enables seamless integration in key technology breakthroughs and joint cultivation of specialized talent, providing the company with a solid technological foundation and a well-structured talent pipeline. At the same time, it offers crucial support for technological iteration and industrial upgrading in the field of low-altitude rotor power systems—perfectly aligning with the competition’s core principles of “feasibility, practicality, growth potential, and tangible results.”

In this competition, Zhongke Dynamics not only earned recognition but also deepened its integration into the global alumni innovation ecosystem of Harbin Institute of Technology. During the conference, the company engaged in in-depth exchanges with alumni enterprises from around the world, academician experts, and investment institutions, actively tapping into the world-class innovation resources of Zhangjiang Science City. At the same time, Zhongke Dynamics participated in the construction of the Harbin Institute of Technology Alumni Innovation Service Alliance, pooling alumni strengths to foster collaborative development within the low-altitude economy industrial chain.

As a pioneer in the low-altitude economy sector, Zhongke Dynamics has always taken it upon itself to tackle “bottleneck” technologies and promote the industrialization of scientific and technological achievements. This award not only recognizes the team’s years of dedicated efforts but also marks a new starting point for the company as it embarks on a journey toward higher-quality development. In the future, the company will continue to focus on making sustained breakthroughs in core technologies for aviation rotor power systems, accelerate the implementation of more domestically produced, intelligently manufactured power products in low-altitude economic applications, and provide robust power solutions to support the scaled development of China’s low-altitude economy. At the same time, we will actively integrate into the global alumni innovation ecosystem, deepen industry-academia-research collaboration and supply-chain partnerships, and contribute our strength to the nation’s future industrial development and regional economic upgrading, jointly embarking on a new journey of scientific and technological innovation!
