“Advancing Thailand’s Aerospace and Manufacturing Industries”

BANGKOK, Nov. 20, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — DN Solutions will participate in METALEX 2024, ASEAN’s premier machine tool exhibition, from November 20 to 23 at the Bangkok International Trade & Exhibition Centre (BITEC). At booth BP19, DN Solutions will showcase state-of-the-art machine tools and manufacturing solutions aimed at enhancing the productivity and competitiveness of Thai manufacturers.

Under its “Thailand 4.0″ initiative, Thailand is driving the modernization of traditional industries such as automotive and electronics, while accelerating innovation in key sectors like aerospace, logistics, robotics, the digital economy, biofuels, and healthcare. The country is also pursuing its goal to become the ASEAN hub for aircraft maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO), fueling demand for precision manufacturing technologies.

At METALEX 2024, DN Solutions will highlight its flagship products, including the PUMA SMX3100L and the DVF 5000 2nd Generation:

PUMA SMX3100L: This versatile, multi-tasking machine is designed for long aerospace components, offering a maximum machining length of 2,540 mm. By performing all operations in a single setup, it reduces lead times and minimizes errors from multiple setups. It also delivers efficient gear machining without requiring dedicated gear-cutting equipment, saving both space and tooling while maximizing productivity.

DVF 5000 2nd Generation: Engineered as a high-precision 5-axis machining center, the DVF 5000 supports diverse applications ranging from small medical components to medium-sized parts for automotive, aerospace, and semiconductor industries. Its robust bed structure and advanced cooling system ensure long-term accuracy, while integrated automation features like an Auto Workpiece Changer (AWC) and round magazine simplify automation and enhance return on investment.

DN Solutions established a regional subsidiary in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam earlier this year to support its Southeast Asian operations. It offers services like product installation, after-sales support, and customized technical assistance to customers in Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia, and the Philippines.

Thailand is a powerhouse in the automotive and aerospace sectors,” said Kim Won-jong, CEO of DN Solutions. “We’re thrilled to connect with our Thai customers at METALEX 2024. Our goal is to be their most reliable partner, helping them maintain strong competitiveness in an ever-evolving global market.”

Beijing Review: Toward a Just World

Published

By

BEIJING, Nov. 20, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — On November 18 and 19, the 19th Heads of State and Government Summit of the Group of 20 (G20) took place in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Chinese President Xi Jinping on November 18 delivered an important speech at Session I of the 19th G20 Summit titled Building a Just World of Common Development.

 

“I pointed out at this forum that prosperity and stability would not be possible in a world where the rich become richer while the poor are made poorer, and countries should make global development more inclusive, beneficial to all, and more resilient,” Xi said during his speech.

“The day the world becomes more just, life will be simpler.” This is the English version of a quote by Oscar Niemeyer, one of the greatest architects in Brazilian history, whose works include the National Congress Palace of Brazil. On July 16, 2014, Xi quoted this line in a keynote speech he addressed to the Brazilian National Congress during his state visit to Brazil.

By quoting this line, Xi called for joint efforts to promote international fairness and justice and build a harmonious world safeguarded by lasting peace and common prosperity.

The pursuit of fairness and justice in international relations has always been a noble cause in human history. Remaining committed to these values has not only been a time-honored tradition but also an unwavering strength of character in China’s diplomacy.

This commitment can be traced back to the 1950s, when China first put forward the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence. This vision has widely resonated with the international community and has since served as the basis for China’s participation in international affairs.

Since the new era began in 2012, China has been actively promoting a new type of international relations, one that focuses on building a community with a shared future for humanity. In support of international fairness and justice, China has put forward practical proposals, including the Global Development Initiative, the Global Security Initiative, and the Global Civilizations Initiative.

Since its proposal in 2013, the country’s Belt and Road Initiative, a strategy to boost connectivity along and beyond the ancient Silk Road routes, has been a powerful driver of growth for its participating countries. Other Chinese initiatives, including the Global Development and South-South Cooperation Fund and the China-UN Peace and Development Fund, have covered more than 100 countries and regions across Asia, Africa, Latin America and Oceania, fostering widespread prosperity and collaboration.

As a key member of the Global South, China has been committed to empowering other developing countries by amplifying their voice and influence in global governance. China was the first country to openly support the African Union’s inclusion in the G20.

In our world today, protectionism and unilateralism are on the rise. The divide between the Global North and South continues to widen. In the face of these challenges, the global community must share the responsibility of safeguarding international fairness and justice. By holding the belief that “the day the world becomes more just, life will be simpler,” we will one day advance to an open, inclusive, clean and beautiful world of lasting peace, universal security and shared prosperity.

Just as Xi said at the end of his speech in Rio de Janeiro, “China is ready to take steps together with all parties to build a just world of common development, leave poverty in the past, and turn our vision into reality.”
