Xiamen-based State-owned Listed Company Jinlong Group Visited Xiamen Apollo To Deepen Strategic Cooperation in Automotive Sheet Metal And New Energy Metal Manufacturing.

Xiamen, September 4, 2026 - Mr. Liao Zhongchuan, Chairman of Xiamen King Long Automotive Intelligent Technology Co., Ltd., recently led a sales team to visit the Xiamen Apollo factory. The visit facilitated in-depth discussions regarding metal stamping, welding, and precision metal manufacturing-specifically for automotive sheet metal, electrical cabinets, and new energy storage cabinets. Both parties engaged in comprehensive dialogue covering technical collaboration, product development, manufacturing, and overseas market expansion, ultimately establishing a strategic partnership.

 

This collaboration leverages the respective strengths of both companies in automotive component manufacturing, precision metal processing, and the new energy industry chain. By joining forces, they aim to provide global customers with superior solutions-characterized by stability, efficiency, and competitiveness-for OEM metal stampings, automotive sheet metal parts, welded metal components, and metal structural parts for new energy equipment.

 

 

 

Established in 1990, Xiamen King Long Automotive Intelligent Technology Co., Ltd. is a core holding subsidiary of Xiamen King Long Automotive Group. Leveraging a solid foundation in automotive manufacturing and extensive technical expertise, the company has long specialized in automotive sheet metal and components, boasting robust comprehensive manufacturing capabilities in the sector.

 

Currently, King Long Intelligent offers a wide range of automotive sheet metal body panels-including hoods, fenders, doors, and trunk lids-covering major brands such as Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Audi, Toyota, Lexus, Volkswagen, and Tesla. The company also provides custom development and mass production services based on customer blueprints, samples, and technical specifications.

 

In the automotive aftermarket, King Long Intelligent maintains a strategic presence in both remanufactured sheet metal parts and "matching quality" (OE-equivalent) sheet metal parts.

 

For remanufactured parts, the company employs processes closely aligned with those of original equipment manufacturers (OEMs). Damaged original components undergo disassembly, cleaning, repair, and inspection; damaged sections are reproduced using reverse modeling; and final assembly, stamping, and quality testing ensure mass production that meets original factory standards for quality and performance.

 

Meanwhile, the company's "matching quality" sheet metal parts align with OEM components in terms of material, structure, functionality, and quality standards, providing the global automotive aftermarket with reliable, OEM-quality body panels and comprehensive solutions.

 

 

 

Xiamen Apollo has long specialized in providing metal components and structural solutions for sectors such as new energy vehicles, the automotive industry, power systems, energy storage, photovoltaics, and servers.

 

The company possesses comprehensive metal processing capabilities-working with materials including copper, brass, stainless steel, aluminum alloys, and carbon steel-and offers manufacturing services such as metal stamping, welding, CNC machining, laser cutting, metal forming, and assembly based on customer drawings and application requirements.

 

In the new energy and electrical sectors, Apollo's product portfolio includes copper, aluminum, laminated, and flexible busbars, as well as battery components, fuse parts, and other electrical metal components; these products serve a wide range of applications, including new energy vehicles, energy storage systems, power equipment, and industrial electrical systems.

 

Leveraging in-house capabilities-spanning stamping, welding, CNC machining, mold development, surface treatment, and automated assembly-Apollo provides customers with one-stop metal component manufacturing services, covering everything from product design and mold development to prototyping and mass production.

 

Regarding quality management, Apollo has established systems compliant with ISO 9001 and IATF 16949 standards and meets regulatory requirements such as RoHS and REACH, ensuring consistent mass production and quality assurance for automotive and new energy clients.

 

 

 

The strategic partnership between the two parties extends beyond the traditional realm of automotive sheet metal.

 

As the markets for new energy vehicles, energy storage systems, and electrical equipment continue to grow, opportunities for technical synergy are emerging between automotive sheet metal manufacturing and the production of metal structural components for new energy equipment. The two parties plan to deepen their collaboration across a range of products, including automotive sheet metal parts, electrical cabinets, energy storage cabinets, metal stampings, welded metal components, and other custom metal structures.

 

For products such as electrical cabinets and energy storage cabinets, Apollo leverages customer structural designs and application requirements to provide comprehensive manufacturing services-including sheet metal forming, stamping, laser cutting, bending, welding, surface treatment, and assembly-thereby transitioning from the supply of individual parts to the delivery of complete metal manufacturing solutions.

 

Simultaneously, Apollo has established a product portfolio in the field of new energy electrical connections-comprising copper busbars, aluminum busbars, insulated busbars, and flexible busbars-capable of meeting the demands for high-current connections and precision metal components in new energy vehicles, energy storage systems, and power electronics.

 

 

This strategic partnership between Jinlong Intelligent and Xiamen Apollo will further leverage the respective strengths of both parties in areas such as automotive manufacturing, precision metal stamping, metal welding, new energy, and overseas markets.

 

Moving forward, the two companies will deepen technical collaboration and project synergy centered on customer needs, jointly advancing the development and manufacturing of products including automotive sheet metal, industrial sheet metal, power cabinets, new energy storage cabinets, and precision metal components.

 

By combining Jinlong Intelligent's manufacturing and market resources in the automotive sheet metal sector with Apollo's comprehensive capabilities in metal stamping, welding, CNC machining, and new energy metal component manufacturing, the partnership will enhance supply chain efficiency. This collaboration aims to deliver more competitive, customized product solutions to clients across the automotive, new energy, energy storage, power, and industrial sectors worldwide.

 

Taking this strategic partnership as a new starting point, Xiamen Apollo will continue to enhance its precision metal manufacturing capabilities. Through consistent quality, flexible customization, and one-stop manufacturing services, the company is committed to providing reliable metal components and new energy metal solutions to global customers.
