What we are

Not a factory. Not a trader. The one who answers for it.

  • ZeroLine

    Not a factory

    • We do not own the factories we work with.
    • That leaves us free to choose the right one for each job, among more than 1,200 in and around Wuhan.
  • ZeroLine

    Not a trading company

    • We do not just resell. We test your part, run every machine before it is crated, integrate lines and install them.
    • Engineers, not catalog agents, answer your questions.
  • ZeroLine

    One accountable partner

    • One contract, one project manager and one shipment, however many factories are behind it.
    • We stay responsible for spare parts and support for the working life of the equipment.

How we work

Five commitments, one for each worry

  1. 01

    Matched, not listed

    We match your part, output and budget to factories we have audited, and we tell you when you don't need the expensive option.

  2. 02

    Proven before you pay

    We test your part in Wuhan, run every machine before it is crated, and show you the factory acceptance test on video.

  3. 03

    One contract, one owner

    One project manager, one contract and one shipment, however many factories are behind it.

  4. 04

    Delivered to running

    Export documents, certification support, freight, installation, commissioning and training, until it runs in your plant.

  5. 05

    Here for the life of it

    Spare parts, remote support, retrofits and upgrades for the working life of the equipment.

The name

Why “ZeroLine”

Every project starts at zero: an empty floor, a part to make, a network on paper. The line is where it ends: a production line running in your plant, a network carrying traffic.

Our Chinese name, 灵线 (líng xiàn), sounds like 零线, “zero line”. 灵 means quick and clever; 线 means line.

Is ZeroLine a manufacturer or a trading company?

Neither, exactly. We don't own the factories, and we don't just resell. We match, test, integrate, ship and support equipment from audited partner factories, under one contract, and we stay responsible after delivery.

Where is ZeroLine based?

In Wuhan, Hubei, China, in the Optics Valley (East Lake High-tech Zone). We work with customers in 58 countries by email, WhatsApp and video, and our engineers travel for installation and training.

How do you choose the factories?

We audit a factory before it supplies a ZeroLine project: what it makes itself, its quality system, its test equipment and its after-sales capacity. Then your part or sample runs on its equipment before you order.

What does “exclusive international partner” mean?

Maxwave Laser and Stratavolt design and build their equipment. Outside China, ZeroLine sells it, ships it and supports it, and is the single contact for buyers.

Can I see the factory before I order?

Yes. We arrange factory visits in Wuhan by appointment, and you can watch the sample test and the factory acceptance test of your own equipment on video.

What's your zero?

An empty plant, a part, a network or a product idea. Tell us where you are starting. An engineer replies with a plan and a quote.
