At 8:00 PM on August 8, 2008, as the 2008 Olympic countdown began with the rhythmic beating of drums that echoed the soul of China, the hearts of every Chinese descendant were united in excitement and pride for this historic moment. As the 29 giant footprints illuminated the path to the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games, the world witnessed the rising power and spirit of China.
To mark this unforgettable occasion, many Chinese independent brands played a vital role. Among them was JAC Gehlfa, which took on a critical logistics responsibility during the torch relay and fireworks transportation, contributing significantly to the success of the event.
**Gehlfa's Role in the Torch Relay**
Starting from Sanya, Hainan, the torch relay unfolded across the country, with each grand ceremony backed by the tireless efforts of countless staff members. Behind the scenes, a dedicated team ensured the smooth operation of the event. Their work guaranteed that the Olympic flame reached every corner of China safely and on time. This was the torch relay logistics fleet, and JAC Gehlfa was one of its key players.
The L-series heavy trucks from JAC Gehlfa were chosen for their superior performance, reliability, and comfort. A fleet of three vehicles was deployed, and drivers praised their efficiency and stability. To ensure flawless operations, JAC also sent a specialized technical team to provide on-site support throughout the journey.
According to the head of the Technical Support Department, the team started tracking the vehicles from Sanya. Despite the long and challenging route—from the southernmost tip of the country to the northeastern regions, and from the eastern coast to the western plateau—there were very few service opportunities. The high level of security and confidentiality surrounding the torch relay meant they had to stay at a distance from the main team. Sometimes, due to the sensitive nature of the route, they even lost contact with the logistics group. However, feedback from the drivers confirmed that the Gehlfa L-Series performed exceptionally well, with only minor maintenance required and no major breakdowns.
**Gehlfa Shines in the Fireworks Display**
On the evening of August 8, the opening ceremony featured an unprecedented fireworks display that painted the sky over Beijing. A total of 16,000 Liuyang firework shots lit up the night, symbolizing the dream of the Chinese nation’s 100-year Olympic aspiration.
Transporting 16,000 rounds of fireworks from Liuyang to Beijing was a massive logistical challenge. After thorough evaluation, Gehlfa heavy trucks were selected for the task. A total of 17 vehicles were used to transport the fireworks in batches. Although the details of the journey remained confidential, the three world records set during the fireworks show—highest number of shots, widest coverage, and largest waterfall of flames—were made possible thanks to the reliable service and full commitment of Gehlfa trucks.
This remarkable achievement added a brilliant chapter to the development of China’s independent automotive industry.
JAC Gehlfa successfully completed two major Olympic missions with outstanding performance, showcasing the strength and capability of China’s homegrown brands. It was a proud moment for the nation and a testament to the growing influence of Chinese innovation on the global stage.

An industrial cooling system is a critical facility used in industrial production processes to reduce the temperature of equipment, products, or environments. Its purpose is to protect mechanical equipment from overheating damage, maintain the stability of production processes and product quality, and improve energy efficiency. The design and implementation of such systems range from simple water cooling to complex multi-stage refrigeration solutions, varying according to specific application requirements.
Common types
1. Circulating water cooling system
One of the most basic forms of industrial cooling is to send cold water to the equipment that needs to be cooled through a water pump, absorb heat, and then return it to the cooling tower or heat exchanger for cooling, and then circulate it again.
2. Air cooling system
Using a fan to force air circulation and remove the heat emitted by the device is common in small devices or specific environments.
3. Coolant/Refrigerant System
Using specialized coolant or refrigerant, such as ethylene glycol solution, effectively removes heat with lower freezing point and higher boiling point, suitable for situations requiring wide temperature difference cooling.
4. Refrigeration unit
The complete circulation system including compressor, evaporator, condenser, and expansion valve absorbs heat through the phase change of refrigerant to achieve low-temperature cooling.
Key components
Radiators/heat exchangers: promote heat exchange.
Water pump or fan: drives the circulation of cooling medium.
Controller: Monitor and regulate the cooling process.
Liquid storage tank: stores cooling medium.
Filter: Keep the cooling medium clean to prevent clogging.
The Importance of Industrial Cooling Systems
Improve production efficiency: Keep the machine running within the optimal temperature range, reduce failure rates and downtime.
Extend equipment lifespan: effectively dissipate heat to reduce wear and damage, and lower maintenance costs.
Energy conservation and emission reduction: A well-designed system can significantly reduce energy consumption, in line with sustainable development goals.
Ensuring product quality: In certain processing procedures, such as plastic injection molding, semiconductor production, and food processing, temperature control directly affects the quality of the final product.
Application in various industries
Electric power generation: cooling of generators and transformers.
Petrochemical industry: heat management of refineries and chemical reactors.
Metal processing: cooling of machine tools, laser cutting equipment, and welding equipment.
Electronic manufacturing: Temperature control for server farms and data centers.
Food and beverage: temperature control during fermentation and refrigeration processes.
epilogue
Industrial cooling systems are an indispensable part of modern industrial operations, and their effectiveness directly affects production efficiency, costs, and environmental indicators. With the advancement of technology, future industrial cooling solutions will further develop towards higher energy efficiency, lower environmental impact, and intelligence.
