Exhibition Highlights | In 2026, Weihang Technology Returns to the Yangtze River Delta Emergency Expo: Pioneering a New Chapter in Low-Altitude Emergency Rescue with Innovative Technologies

From May 7 to 9, the Shanghai National Exhibition and Convention Center buzzed with activity as the fifth Yangtze River Delta International Emergency Disaster Reduction and Rescue Expo kicked off. As one of China’s most influential events in the emergency‑response equipment sector, this year’s expo brought together cutting‑edge emergency‑rescue technologies and solutions from around the globe. At this industry‑leading gathering, Weihang Technology showcased a range of flagship products and pioneering solutions, drawing widespread attention.

At this exhibition, Weihang Technology prominently showcased “Aoqin” High-Altitude Tethered Main Combat Firefighting UAV System with Eight Ducted Fans 、 The “Ao Run,” a low-altitude tethered combat firefighting drone equipped with four ducted fans. , and A Multi-Scenario Product Application System for Low-Altitude Emergency Rescue in All-Hazard, Large-Scale Emergency Response Situations Demonstration sandbox. During the event, Ao Qin and Ao Run drew a large crowd of industry professionals to stop and observe, thanks to their innovative ducted-fan technology and outstanding firefighting performance.

Addressing the global challenge of fire suppression in super‑tall buildings, Weihang Technology has unveiled… Firefighting and suppression plan covering the entire height of the super‑tall building This solution centers on a ducted-fan unmanned aerial vehicle system, complemented by a building‑hoisting device and a rail‑guided system. By adopting differentiated equipment configurations and auxiliary strategies tailored to various building height ranges, it further overcomes the altitude limitations of firefighting in urban super‑tall structures, enabling full‑height coverage, precise targeting, and sustained suppression of fires in such buildings, thereby systematically addressing… A global challenge: the lack of primary offensive equipment for firefighting in super‑tall buildings. 。

During the exhibition, leaders and technical experts from emergency management agencies in Jiangsu, Guangdong, Zhejiang, Fujian, Shanghai, and other regions visited Weihang’s booth, engaging in in-depth discussions and inquiries about product specifications, real-world application scenarios, and prospects for future collaboration. Attendees highly commended Weihang Technology’s innovative achievements in the field of low‑altitude emergency rescue.

In addition, numerous organizations and universities—including the Chinese Red Cross Foreign Aid Station, City University of Hong Kong, and Shanghai Tech University—visited Weihang’s booth to learn more and explore potential avenues for collaboration in disaster relief, research partnerships, and other areas. Delegations from emergency‑response sectors in Thailand, India, Iran, and several other countries also attended to engage in exchanges, expressing keen interest in the Aoqin and Aorun systems and indicating their desire to gain a deeper understanding of the products’ capabilities and discuss possible avenues for adoption. 。

During the concurrent roadshow events at the exhibition, Li Ye, founder and CEO of Weihang Technology, … “Safety First, Main Combat Role Forges the Spirit: Ducted-Fan Flight Platform Tackles High-Altitude Firefighting Challenges” On this topic, he provides an in-depth analysis of a robust solution to the critical challenges of high‑altitude firefighting operations. He points out that conventional rotary‑wing drones face significant safety risks, limited payload capacity, and poor resistance to disturbances in urban fire environments. In contrast, Weihang’s “Aoqin” system leverages advantages such as ducted‑fan safety isolation and high rotor‑disc loading, enabling operations—from arrival to takeoff—in less than 5 minutes in the case of, with 500kg Payload, 100-meter altitude 20L/s The above continues to spray water, 30–45 meters It delivers outstanding performance in effective range, enabling highly efficient firefighting operations. Li also emphasized that Weihang Technology not only focuses on fire suppression in ultra‑tall buildings but also addresses a wide array of scenarios—including narrow alleyways, petrochemical facilities, and water‑based environments—thereby building… A low‑altitude emergency rescue equipment system for “all‑hazard, large‑scale emergencies” Safety comes first as the bottom line, and forging the spirit of combat is our mission—Wei Hang is reshaping the landscape of high‑altitude firefighting with ducted fan technology.

Weihang Technology’s impressive debut also drew significant attention from numerous mainstream media outlets. State-run platforms such as CCTV News, Xinhua News Agency, and China Industrial News conducted exclusive interviews and published in-depth reports on the company. Journalists focused on the technological innovations behind its ultra‑tall‑building fire‑suppression solutions, their practical application prospects, and their broader industry‑wide value, conducting thorough investigations and extensive dissemination that further enhanced Weihang Technology’s influence and brand reputation in the emergency‑response sector.

Leveraging its outstanding technological innovation and the practical value of its solutions, Weihang has also been shortlisted for the “a&s Top Digital Products & Solutions” awards at this year’s exhibition, further underscoring the company’s leading position in the smart emergency‑response equipment sector.

With its ducted‑fan technology, WeiHang has demonstrated remarkable capabilities in the field of low‑altitude emergency rescue, writing a new chapter in emergency‑response innovation. The successful conclusion of this Yangtze River Delta Emergency Expo not only showcased WeiHang Technology’s deep technical expertise and innovative strength in low‑altitude emergency operations but also further expanded its network of collaborative partnerships with domestic and international emergency management agencies, research institutions, and industry stakeholders. Looking ahead, WeiHang will remain committed to addressing the needs of “all‑hazard, large‑scale emergency response,” driving the deployment and widespread adoption of ducted‑fan drone technology in applications such as firefighting, disaster relief, and high‑rise building safety, thereby contributing WeiHang’s expertise to the development of safer, smarter urban emergency‑response systems.
