The 2026 Spring Festival holiday, the Year of the Horse, has come to a successful conclusion. All FORTRAN employees have quickly returned to work, fully resuming production and officially embarking on the new year's journey of struggle, while simultaneously resuming order receiving work. At the beginning of resuming work, we received the great news of our first export order of the new year - a set of fully automated factory conveyor lines tailored for a Malaysian customer. The production, debugging, and inspection have been successfully completed, and the equipment has been successfully loaded and shipped. This is also the first set of equipment cabinets exported by FORTRAN in 2026, marking a promising start to the development of overseas markets in the new year. Here, we would like to express our sincerest gratitude to the Malaysian customer for choosing FORTRAN's fully automated factory conveyor line solution among many brands. This solution covers core functional modules such as edge banding machine connections and six-sided drilling machine connections, and can be flexibly adapted according to the customer's production needs, fully meeting their intelligent production upgrade requirements. As a professional technology company focused on balancing mechanical structure design and software development, FORTRAN has been deeply involved in the research, development, and production of automation equipment for many years. Its core products cover various categories such as automatic loading and unloading equipment, automatic conveyor lines, elevators, paper cutters, sealing machines, and folding machines. With solid technical strength and a comprehensive service system, it has won the trust and recognition of customers worldwide. The delivery of the fully automated factory conveyor lines to the Malaysian customer is not only an important testimony to the deepening cooperation between the two parties, but also a concrete practice of FORTRAN empowering the upgrading of Southeast Asian manufacturing with high-quality automation solutions. It demonstrates the strength of China's intelligent manufacturing and lays a solid foundation for the subsequent expansion of the industrial automation market in Malaysia and throughout Southeast Asia.
FORTRAN has long been committed to providing high-quality, efficient, and intelligent automation solutions for global manufacturing enterprises. Its core products encompass automatic loading and unloading equipment, automatic conveyor lines, elevators, paper cutters, sealing machines, folding machines, and other equipment. Leveraging its strong R&D capabilities in mechanical structure design and software development, the company has gained widespread recognition from customers both domestically and internationally. Its products have been exported to numerous countries and regions worldwide, helping enterprises enhance production efficiency, reduce labor costs, and achieve intelligent transformation.
The automated conveyor line exported this time is a key cooperation project between FORTRAN and a well-known manufacturing enterprise in Malaysia. After in-depth communication and on-site inspection, the Malaysian customer ultimately chose FORTRAN's full-factory automated conveyor line solution, which includes core functional modules such as edge banding machine connection and six-sided drilling machine connection. This equipment is tailored according to the customer's actual production needs, aiming to solve the pain points of low efficiency, high labor intensity, and unstable product quality in traditional production processes, and help customers build an efficient, intelligent, and integrated production line.
Compared to traditional conveyor systems, the FORTRAN factory-wide automated conveyor line boasts significant technical advantages and data support: It adopts a customized balanced mechanical structure design, which can reduce equipment operating noise to below 60 decibels, with a stable operation time of over 8,000 hours without malfunction, an improvement of 30% over the industry average stability standard. The edge banding machine connection module achieves seamless docking with various edge banding machines, with a conveying speed that can be infinitely adjusted between 0-30 meters per minute, and a board conveying accuracy of ±0.1 millimeters, effectively avoiding issues such as scratching and deviation of boards during conveyance, resulting in a 25% increase in board processing pass rate. The six-sided drilling machine connection module supports single or multiple machine connection configurations, enabling automatic circulation of boards between drilling equipment, reducing manual handling by 80%, and improving drilling efficiency by 40% compared to traditional manual transfer methods.
In addition, the entire conveyor line is equipped with intelligent control system software independently developed by FORTRAN, which enables real-time monitoring of equipment operating status, fault warning, and remote operation and maintenance functions. The software is compatible with MES/ERP systems and can achieve data interoperability with customers' existing production management systems, helping customers grasp production progress and equipment operating status in real time and laying a solid foundation for the construction of smart factories. According to customer needs, the conveyor line adopts a U-shaped layout design, which saves about 40% of the workshop floor space compared to the traditional straight-line layout, providing more flexible space for customers to expand their production lines.
Malaysia is a significant market in the field of industrial automation in Southeast Asia. Its industrial automation market is expected to experience a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.2% from 2025 to 2031, indicating immense market potential. The successful shipment of this project not only signifies the Malaysian customers' recognition of FORTRAN's product quality and technical prowess, but also marks a crucial step for FORTRAN in deepening its market layout in Southeast Asia. This will bolster FORTRAN's brand influence in the Malaysian industrial automation market and lay a solid foundation for deeper cooperation with Southeast Asian enterprises in the future.
Mr. Li, the head of FORTRAN's overseas business, said, "We are deeply grateful for the trust and choice of Malaysian customers. In 2026, FORTRAN will continue to uphold the concept of 'technology-driven, customer-first', continue to increase R&D investment, optimize product performance, and provide global customers with higher quality and more efficient automation solutions. We look forward to strengthening cooperation with more Malaysian enterprises, helping local enterprises achieve intelligent transformation and upgrading, and working together to achieve win-win development."
As a professional automation equipment R&D and manufacturing enterprise integrating mechanical structure design and software development, FORTRAN has always taken it as its mission to promote the intelligent development of the global manufacturing industry. In the future, the company will continue to focus on technological innovation, closely follow the development trend of Industry 4.0, and provide more competitive automation products and services to global customers, helping more enterprises achieve cost reduction, efficiency improvement, and high-quality development.
