It is reported that the "China Construction Machinery Annual Product TOP50" selection event was launched in 2006 and has been successfully held for seven editions. Its purpose is to review and summarize the achievements in technology and products made by the construction machinery industry over the past year, record the footsteps of industrial technological progress, and guide the direction of technological advancement in construction machinery products and technologies. The core criteria for the selection are technological innovation, market performance, and application contribution of the products.

In addition to meeting the relevant national and industry regulations on safety and environmental protection, the shortlisted products for the 2014 "China Construction Machinery Annual Product TOP50" must also be brand-new products successfully developed between 2012 and 2013 or upgraded products with major changes, and must have been appraised by relevant authorities and launched on the market.

Two products from Lishide Construction Machinery Co., Ltd. — the Lishide SC760.8 excavator and the CL955 wheel loader — have entered the selection event. The SC760.8 excavator is a 76-ton excavator that represents the highest technology of domestic-brand ultra-large excavators and also marks that Lishide has become one of the few domestic enterprises mastering super-large-tonnage excavator technology. Its rollout will greatly enhance Lishide's competitiveness against peers and strengthen the company's comprehensive development strength. The rollout of the 76-ton excavator also proves the correctness of the company's years-long commitment to technological leadership and product upgrading, marks a new step up in the company's technological innovation and product R&D capabilities, and is another achievement of the company's increased R&D investment and continuously improved R&D level. The CL955 wheel loader, designed with the concepts of high reliability, high efficiency, and high returns, is an efficient, energy-saving, and reliable product built with Lishide's full efforts. Since its launch in 2012, the product has won the favor and recognition of many customers and was included in the 2013 China Machinery Industry "Catalog of Famous, Excellent and New Mechanical and Electrical Products."
