On March 4, 2026, China Automotive Engineering Research Institute Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "CATARC") and Yangzhou Dongsheng Automotive Parts Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Dongsheng") officially signed a strategic cooperation agreement to jointly build the "Automotive Parts Testing Strategic Cooperation Laboratory." This cooperation marks a significant leap forward in Dongsheng's R&D and testing capabilities, and also signifies a crucial step forward in collaborative innovation for China's automotive parts industry in the field of testing and evaluation, injecting "national team"-level core momentum into the technological breakthrough of independent brands.

From "Manufacturing" to "Intelligent Manufacturing": The Innovative Foundation of an Automotive Parts Company

Founded in 2003, Dongsheng has consistently focused on the R&D and manufacturing of automotive parts for many years. Driven by the philosophy of "innovation-driven development and technology leading the future," the company has not been content with traditional production and manufacturing, but has instead made transformation and upgrading its foundation, continuously increasing its R&D investment and building a full-stack technology system covering materials, components, and systems.

In recent years, Dongsheng Group has continuously deepened its cooperation with top domestic universities and research institutions. In 2024, the company's testing center successfully passed CNAS 17025 laboratory certification, joining the ranks of nationally and internationally recognized testing capabilities. This qualification not only authoritatively endorses its technical strength but also lays the groundwork for deeper integration with national-level research platforms, signifying that its experimental testing capabilities have reached nationally and internationally recognized levels.

Strong Alliance: Further Upgrading Testing Capabilities

As the core content of this cooperation, the unveiling of the "Automotive Parts Testing Strategic Cooperation Laboratory" is regarded by the industry as an important milestone for Dongsheng Group towards high-quality development.

"This is not only an honor but also a weighty responsibility," said Dongsheng Group at the signing ceremony. Relying on the authoritative experimental testing platform of China Automotive Technology and Research Center (CATARC), both parties will complement each other's advantages in technology, resources, and platforms, focusing on "technological innovation and intelligent manufacturing" to continuously improve product R&D and innovation capabilities.

As a national-level authoritative testing and research institution, CATARC's platform empowerment will help Dongsheng Group accelerate its product verification, data accumulation, and technological iteration. In the future, both parties are expected to form closer collaborative research in cutting-edge fields such as intelligent suspension and magnetorheological dampers, and jointly promote the leap of China's auto parts industry from "meeting standards" to "leading the way".

Anchoring the Future: Let "Made in China" Lead the World

According to information disclosed by the company, Dongsheng Technology has independently developed four magnetorheological fluids (MR25, MR28, MR30, and MR35), achieving excellent performance in key indicators such as anti-settling properties and wide-temperature stability, reaching international advanced levels and breaking the overseas technology monopoly. Simultaneously, it has achieved full self-development, independent manufacturing, and application in areas such as control algorithms, magnetorheological vibration dampers, and sensors, building a complete intellectual property moat.

Currently, Dongsheng Technology is conducting technical docking and joint development with several OEMs, as well as preparing for mass production. It is expected that the products will be officially launched by major domestic OEMs in the first half of this year. The company clearly stated: It strives to make the magnetorheological vibration damping assembly system a leading product in China and a world-class product within the next three years, propelling the company to become a leader in this field.

"The future is challenging, but we are full of confidence," Dongsheng Technology stated at the ceremony. "We look forward to working hand in hand with all parties to make 'Dongsheng Manufacturing, leading the industry! Made in China, leading the world' a reality."
