Technology Illuminates the Path of Spaceflight—Ocean King Supports Major National Projects

In 2022, China's aerospace industry achieved remarkable success: the Shenzhou-13 and Shenzhou-14 manned spacecraft returned to Earth, the "Tiangong Classroom" officially began its lectures, and the Mengtian laboratory module of the space station completed in-orbit assembly... These achievements have significantly enhanced China's international standing, inspired the Chinese nation's confidence, pride, and patriotism, and strengthened national cohesion. In ensuring the smooth progress of China's aerospace endeavors, China's lighting industry has also played an important role.

On December 4, the Shenzhou-14 manned spacecraft return capsule successfully landed at the Dongfeng landing site, marking the complete success of the manned flight mission. At this exciting moment, Ocean King luminaires were already in place at the Dongfeng landing site, ready to welcome the astronauts' triumphant return.

From Shenzhou-5 to Shenzhou-14 and Chang'e-5, Ocean King has participated in multiple major national scientific research projects and aerospace missions, contributing to strengthening the nation through science and technology and building a strong military. From the Wenchuan earthquake and the Tianjin Port explosion to the COVID-19 pandemic response, Ocean King has actively participated in rescue efforts, demonstrating corporate social responsibility.

Light the way home for astronauts

The Dongfeng landing site for the return of Shenzhou-14 astronauts is an uninhabited Gobi Desert area covering approximately 13,000 square kilometers. During capsule search and rescue operations, nighttime temperatures can drop to minus 20–30 degrees Celsius, with low temperatures and wind-blown sand posing two major challenges. To address these extreme climatic conditions, Ocean King has innovated multiple technologies, providing professional lighting such as cold-resistant flood lamps, headlamps, and high-power search lights, overcoming the technical challenge of lithium battery discharge degradation in low temperatures.

In the vast Gobi Desert with strong winds and heavy sand, the safe and stable operation of luminaires is crucial for search and rescue missions. Ocean King's support team conducted on-site inspections, resolved each issue immediately, and developed an emergency service plan for extreme climate environments, earning high recognition from customers and lighting the way home for astronauts.

Powerful support for the successful completion of major missions

For every major project, senior management personally directs and deploys resources, developing specialized luminaires based on customer requirements. Simultaneously, elite teams are assembled to provide comprehensive support throughout the entire process, leveraging technical expertise and service capabilities to lay a solid foundation for project success.

On November 29, 2022, Ocean King high-mast lights were used at the Shenzhou-15 launch site

Major scientific research projects also test and challenge supply chain assurance capabilities. With heavy tasks and tight schedules for major scientific research projects, Ocean King leverages its supply chain advantages, spares no cost in advance preparation, and prioritizes such production and delivery as the highest priority. For instance, related luminaires for Shenzhou-14 were delivered on time within less than a month after finalization. Ocean King puts its ideals of serving the country through industry and strengthening the nation through technology into practice with concrete actions.

Innovation Leads Professional Lighting

With the development of new light sources and technologies such as LED and the Internet of Things, the company combines professional lighting luminaires with 4G and 5G technologies to form a 'Lighting+' product lineup, leveraging the product combination advantage of LED products + controllers + service platforms to drive customers' lighting systems towards digitalization and intelligence. In other industries, Ocean King's 'Lighting+' products and smart lighting control systems continue to create value for customers with advantages such as leading concepts, comprehensive functions, and reliable quality, leading the industry forward.

High quality promotes the healthy development of the industry

The professional lighting market has broad prospects, but low entry barriers have led to uneven industry standards and increasingly fierce competition. Ocean King advocates for high-level competition, meeting customers' personalized needs with high-quality products and services. To this end, the company has established a three-tier R&D system comprising Industry Product Lines, Technology & Design Department, and Development Research Institute, implementing IPD development to create lighting technologies and customer-satisfying products. It focuses on future lighting trends to reserve new technologies for the future. Ocean King calls on the entire industry to prioritize quality, enhance independent R&D capabilities, develop smarter products for the future, improve differentiated service levels, promote high-quality industry development, and build a symbiotic and win-win industry ecosystem.

Ocean King Lighting Technology Co., Ltd., a council member unit of the China Association of Lighting Industry (CALI), is a leading enterprise in China's special lighting field, providing high-quality lighting products and services for important sectors such as aerospace, steel and petrochemicals, railway transportation, power transmission, emergency rescue and disaster relief, and military equipment.
