This year’s pre-holiday shipping season has been more challenging than in previous years. Multiple typhoons forced major ports in East China to suspend operations repeatedly, with vessel waiting times at Shanghai and Ningbo once reaching 7 to 10 days. Some services faced skipped calls and rolled bookings, further squeezing effective capacity. At the same time, carriers proactively reduced capacity ahead of Golden Week, and large-scale blank sailings sharply tightened slot availability, driving up both booking difficulty and freight rates. These combined factors significantly narrowed the pre-holiday shipping window.

SXKH® has completed production, inspection, and container loading of another Die Spotting Press, which is now on its way to a customer in Canada. This latest delivery further strengthens the company’s market presence and brand influence in Canada and across North America.

A year ago, a 400-ton Die Spotting Press from SXKH® crossed the ocean and arrived at a customer site in North America. At the time, the customer affectionately called it “Hercules”—not only because of its 400-ton clamping force, but because it carried their expectations for high-precision, high-efficiency mould production. A year later, how has this “Hercules” performed on the customer’s line? Let’s take a look back.

A specially customized Die Spotting Press from SXKH® has recently arrived at a customer site in North America and is now undergoing installation and commissioning. This is another non-standard custom project delivered by SXKH in North America, further proving the company’s international service capabilities in high-end customized mould equipment.

SXKH (Zhejiang) Machinery Co., Ltd. recently completed container loading and shipment of a full set of mould processing and inspection equipment, including Die Spotting Presses, Mold Flippers, and Mould Tryout Presses, bound for Canada. This marks another important delivery as SXKH continues to deepen its presence in the North American market, and yet another vote of confidence from an international customer in the solid capabilities behind the SXKH® brand.

On July 21, Mr. Cai, General Manager of SXKH (Zhejiang) Machinery Manufacturing Co., Ltd., traveled to London for a dedicated post-delivery follow-up with a local customer. The trip was designed to give him a first-hand look at how SXKH's Die Spotting Presses are performing on the customer's shop floor, while also offering the chance to conduct a thorough assessment of the UK plastics mould market—an important step as the company prepares to strengthen its position in Britain and across Europe.

Recently, Cai Nengping, Secretary-General of the Ninghai Die & Mould Association, together with Ms. Yang, who oversees operational affairs at the association, visited SXKH (Zhejiang) Machinery Manufacturing Co., Ltd. for an on-site research tour. The visit was aimed at gaining an in-depth understanding of the company's current development status, with on-the-spot guidance provided on key priorities including technology R&D and project application processes. The SXKH management team extended a warm welcome and accompanied the delegation throughout the visit.

Recently, our North American customer gave us an update that 400T Die Spotting Press has successfully arrived at their factory and is getting ready to be installed.

From July 15 to 17, 2026, the 20th Shanghai International Die Casting & Nonferrous Casting Exhibition (CHINA DIECASTING & CHINA NONFERROUS 2026) was held at the Shanghai New International Expo Centre.
