On May 15th, the 13th China (Guangrao) International Rubber Tire and Automotive Parts Exhibition opened. Double Star has grandly launched the "black technology" of the tire industry - the "booster wheel". It is understood that the "booster wheel" has 7+26 global invention patents, overturning the 178 year history of "tires+rims". It does not require inflation, no rims, no wheel unloading, and no tire burst. Its lifespan can match the vehicle, with a maximum of 15 years. More importantly, it not only uses almost no rubber, but also reduces carbon and emissions. Industry insiders believe that this product will bring epoch-making changes to the world tire industry.
Cars can eliminate traditional engines, why can't tires overturn tradition? The "ADDPOWER" (abbreviated as "ADP") developed by Shuangxing using the "questioning essence" thinking is a mechanical wheel composed of steel, consisting of inner and outer wheels, stoppers, cylinders, dampers, tread, and other components. The polyurethane tread is installed on the outer wheel and can be replaced without the need to disassemble the wheel. During operation, the use of cylinders and dampers continuously cushions and pressurizes the vehicle to improve cushioning elasticity and impact resistance, making it more comfortable, energy-saving, and safer to drive.
Five major disruptions:
The "booster wheel" subverts the traditional design principle, materials, technology, equipment, sales, and service model of "tires+rims".
Firstly, from the perspective of the traditional "tire+rim" assembly, the "booster wheel" subverts "external soft and internal rigid" to "external rigid and internal soft". The traditional "tire+rim" structure has supported the rapid development of the tire industry for over a hundred years. Although it has undergone innovative iterations such as diagonal tires, radial tires, and green tires, the structure of this pneumatic tire, which is "soft on the outside and rigid on the inside," has never changed.
Compared to this, the "booster wheel" adopts a "external rigid and internal soft" frame structure, with steel wheels and high-performance polyurethane tread on the outside, and a "star chain" structure composed of cylinders and dampers on the inside, which has significantly improved core performance such as shock absorption and pressure resistance.
At the same time, the "booster wheel" does not need to be inflated like traditional tires, and the tread is made of high-performance polyurethane, which increases the wear resistance by two times compared to traditional rubber tires.
Secondly, the 'booster wheel' overturns traditional tire materials. Composite materials mainly composed of natural rubber or synthetic rubber, as well as skeleton materials such as steel wires and fibers, have been transformed into mainly composed of steel inner and outer wheels and cylinder dampers, and the rubber used is almost zero, almost 100% recyclable and reusable。
Thirdly, the "booster wheel" has overturned the traditional tire manufacturing process. Completely eliminating complex manufacturing processes such as rubber mixing, rolling, forming, and vulcanization, relying mainly on mechanical precision processing, which is simpler, more accurate, and more stable in quality compared to traditional tire processes.
Fourthly, the "booster wheel" has overturned traditional tire production equipment. The disruption of traditional tire technology has also brought about a complete disruption of production equipment. As one of the few enterprises in the tire industry with artificial intelligence and high-end equipment, Double Star can fully utilize its three major capabilities of machining, modularization, system integration, and final assembly, forming a mutually promoting ecosystem between the two main industries of Double Star tires and Double Star equipment.
Fifthly, the "booster wheel" has overturned the traditional tire sales and service model. The traditional "tire+rim" model has short lifespan, low replacement efficiency, high usage cost, and frequent safety accidents. However, the "booster wheel" no longer requires tire and rim replacement during use. The original "booster wheel" can accompany the vehicle for a lifetime, overturning the traditional sales model of "original+replacement" tires, mainly providing maintenance services for the original vehicle, making driving safer and operating more cost-effective.
Chain owner responsible for:
As the only component of a car that comes into contact with the ground, tires carry the important mission of ensuring the safety of drivers and passengers. Most vehicles, such as sedans, buses, trucks, and engineering vehicles, use metal wheels paired with rubber pneumatic tires, which not only easily cause trouble with tire repair due to damage, but also pose a huge safety hazard. During production and use, it is also easy to cause environmental pollution, and the shock absorption of pneumatic tires has always been a pain point.
In non highway fields such as mining and engineering, due to extremely harsh terrain, bumpy road surfaces, and the presence of sharp objects such as sand and engineering waste, it can accelerate tire wear, cause increased deformation, and increase the risk of tire blowout and loss of control.
In this regard, the "Power Booster Wheel" has solved the "three problems" and achieved the "three goals". To solve the problem of short service life and long tire replacement time affecting vehicle operation efficiency of non highway tires, especially mining tires, and achieve the goal of "non highway tires do not change tires throughout the entire vehicle life cycle"; Solve the safety hazards caused by non highway tires being prone to tearing and bursting in harsh environments, and achieve the goal of 'zero safety accidents caused by non highway tires without bursting'.
In addition, "Booster Wheel" has also solved the worldwide problem of "black pollution", achieved the goal of "tires can be 100% recycled and reused without environmental pollution", achieved considerable benefits in energy conservation and emission reduction, and provided a model for the rubber tire industry to practice "carbon peak" and "carbon neutrality". Polyurethane tread is not only more durable, but also reduces consumption by up to 90% during the manufacturing process compared to traditional rubber tires, and has lower fuel consumption than traditional tires.
It is reported that the dual star "booster wheel" will be given priority in replacing giant tires and rims in mines. There are two major pain points for mining tires:
One is high consumption. Each mining vehicle generally needs 6 "tires+rims". Even if the average life of high-quality rubber mining tires (taking 49 inch as an example) is about 15 months, each tire is calculated at 60000 Metacomputing. The amount of tires and rims consumed by a mining vehicle for 15 years is 4.32 million yuan for tires, 180000 yuan for rims, and 4.5 million yuan for the total price. The price of each corresponding specification of the "booster wheel" is about 120000 yuan, and its lifespan can match the vehicle, with a maximum of 15 years. Calculated over 15 years, the total consumption amount is approximately 1.8 million yuan (including the cost of replacing the tire tread), which is 2.7 million yuan or about 60% less than the traditional "tire+rim" method.
The second is the high risk. The complex terrain and environment of mines make it easy to cut traditional rubber tires. Once cut, it not only poses a danger due to tire explosion, but also takes a long replacement time, which not only reduces work efficiency, but also makes the losses difficult to estimate. Therefore, the dual star "power boosting wheel" has achieved significant results in energy conservation, emission reduction, reduction of operating costs, and safety assurance. As the engine for the development of the tire industry, the automotive industry is undergoing a revolutionary transformation from traditional fuel vehicles to new energy vehicles. Cars can all eliminate engines that can be considered the "heart". Why can't tires overturn traditional design principles?
Practice has proven that the emergence of disruptive products in different industries has changed the industry landscape, just like the iPhone for Nokia, new energy vehicles for gasoline vehicles, the emergence of smartphones replacing traditional feature machines, and the rise of new energy vehicles gradually replacing gasoline vehicles has become a trend.
In recent years, the Chinese tire industry has continued to accelerate its reshuffle. In the wave of product iteration and industrial restructuring, traditional tire companies have accelerated their scale expansion from strategy, capital to products, pushing the industry to the extreme. The greater the advantages of traditional tires, the heavier the burden in the future, and thus triggering a major reshuffle of the industry. Whoever can seize opportunities, innovate and break through, can seize the commanding heights of industry development in market competition.
The "Zengfu Wheel" is not only the result of the integration between the two main businesses of Double Star, namely rubber tires, artificial intelligence, and high-end equipment, but also a powerful demonstration of Double Star's global top research and development and intelligent manufacturing level. Industry experts say that the commercial application of the twin star "booster wheel" will inevitably trigger a disruptive change in the tire industry.
Natural rubber is one of China's strategic materials, currently mainly relying on imports, with an external dependence of over 85%. In addition, there are few rubber planting countries, and the production is extremely unstable due to factors such as climate. Once there are international trends or changes in production, industry stability and enterprise operations will face risks. Although China also needs to import a large amount of iron ore, its external dependence is relatively low, and as a major steel country, China has a relatively high level of steel resource recycling and a higher voice in raw materials.
Smart Transformation:
In the current era of surging technological revolution, more and more enterprise giants regard disruptive innovation as the way to achieve industry leadership, and rely on technological advantages to establish a complete industrial chain ecosystem.
Fundamentally speaking, disruptive innovation is rooted in the genes of dual star reform and innovation. If Shuangxing's "one time entrepreneurship" has achieved a shift from "making shoes for people" to "making shoes for cars", and "second time entrepreneurship" has shifted from "sweat oriented" to "smart oriented", it is known as the "leader in intelligent manufacturing of tires in China" and holds a stake in Jinhu Tire, which ranks first in the Korean market. The "Power Boosting Wheel" will undoubtedly become a new breakthrough point and milestone for Double Star's "Three Entrepreneurial Initiatives, Creating a World Class Enterprise".
In the rapid structural adjustment, the only one who can survive is the leader of change. We cannot control change, only walk ahead of it. "The classic words of Peter Drucker, the father of modern management, inspire countless enterprises to strive to stay at the forefront of the changing times on the path of innovation. Wishing the "Booster Wheel" of Double Star, which has overturned the global history of "tires and rims," will bloom and bear fruit as soon as possible.
