Amidst the roar of construction machinery and the quiet of farmland, between new energy battery packs and the comfort of the driver’s cabin, a company from Xuzhou is redefining the boundaries of thermal management with innovative technology.
Since its founding in 2016, Xuzhou Xinrun Intelligence Technology Co., Ltd. has grown into one of China’s leading suppliers of air conditioning systems for construction machinery and agricultural vehicles. Located in the Xuzhou Economic and Technological Development Zone, the company occupies approximately 100 acres and employs over 300 staff. It specializes in the R&D and manufacturing of air conditioning systems for off-road vehicles and thermal management systems for new energy batteries.
01 Market Leadership and Industry Recognition
Xinrun Intelligence Technology has achieved remarkable market performance, holding approximately 30% of the domestic market share and ranking among the top players in China. In the first half of 2025, the company’s sales exceeded 200 million RMB.
It serves a prestigious clientele, including Caterpillar, XCMG, SANY Heavy Industry, Zoomlion, Shandong Lingong, Guangxi Yuchai, CLAAS, and Deutz. This client portfolio underscores the industry’s recognition of Xinrun’s product quality and technological innovation.
02 Innovations in Intelligent Air Conditioning Control Systems
In March 2025, Xinrun Intelligence Technology applied for a patent titled “Intelligent Control System for Air Conditioning Operation Based on Data Analysis” (Publication No. CN120062797A). This patent represents the company’s latest breakthrough in intelligent air conditioning control.
The system comprises three core modules:
- Environmental Analysis Module: Analyzes the operational environment of the air conditioning system, constructs an indoor model, and integrates corresponding air conditioning models based on system data.
- Target Analysis Module: Performs target analysis, displays the indoor model to users, and allows them to define specific target zones within the model.
- Control Module: Enables precise temperature control, significantly improving energy efficiency and user experience.
03 Special Challenges for Off-Road Vehicle Air Conditioning
Off-road vehicles, such as construction and agricultural machinery, operate in extremely harsh environments characterized by high temperatures, humidity, and dust. These conditions demand exceptional reliability and durability from air conditioning systems.
Traditional systems often struggle to maintain stable performance under such circumstances. Issues like radiator clogging, filter failure, and corrosion frequently lead to cabin temperature dysregulation, negatively impacting operators’ productivity and health.
Xinrun addresses these challenges by developing specialized air conditioning systems tailored to off-road vehicles. Through innovative design and advanced materials, the company has significantly enhanced product reliability and service life.
04 Trends in Electric Vehicle Thermal Management
The electric vehicle thermal management industry is moving toward greater intelligence and integration.
Thermal management systems must precisely regulate the operating temperatures of batteries, motors, and electronic controls. When these components overheat, the system dissipates excess heat; when temperatures are too low, it provides heating to ensure optimal performance.
A key industry trend involves repurposing waste heat from motors and batteries to warm the cabin during winter. This energy-recycling strategy reduces the power consumption of air conditioning systems, thereby extending the driving range of electric vehicles.
05 Modular Design: A Cutting-Edge Approach
New energy vehicle thermal management systems are increasingly adopting modular architectures. This design philosophy involves assembling systems from functionally independent modules, including:
- Cold/heat source modules
- HVAC modules for cabin air conditioning
- Battery cooling and heating modules
- Switching modules
- Motor and electronic control cooling modules
- External heat exchanger modules
- Control modules
Each module is designed as a self-contained, independently operable unit. These modules can be integrated into a complete thermal management system using standardized interfaces. This modular approach offers flexibility in configuration, ease of installation and maintenance, and the ability to customize systems for different vehicle models.
06 Future Prospects and Development Directions
As the market for new energy electric vehicles continues to expand, thermal management systems will face new technological challenges and opportunities. Improving energy efficiency, extending driving range, and enhancing passenger comfort remain core industry objectives.
Xinrun Intelligence Technology will continue to deepen its expertise in cabin air conditioning and battery thermal management for non-road vehicles. Through continuous innovation and product optimization, the company aims to deliver more efficient and reliable temperature management solutions.
Future strategies may include expanding product lines, exploring new application areas, and strengthening collaborations with research institutions to maintain technological leadership.
Leveraging extensive experience and continuous innovation in off-road vehicle air conditioning systems, Xinrun Intelligence Technology is expanding into the broader field of battery thermal management for new energy vehicles.
By applying its newly patented “Data-Analytics-Based Intelligent Air Conditioning Control System,” future automotive climate control systems will become smarter and more efficient, automatically optimizing performance based on environmental conditions and operational demands.
In this era of new energy development, companies like Xinrun Intelligence Technology—with their core technological expertise—will continue to lead the industry toward greater energy efficiency, enhanced comfort, and smarter solutions.
