不靠海的长沙，为什么能造出6000米深海机器人？

Changsha may be far from the coast, but it is one of China’s major construction machinery manufacturing hubs. A mature industrial supply chain, strong university research capabilities and decades of expertise in heavy equipment are helping this inland city extend its manufacturing strengths from land to the deep sea.

长沙不靠海，却是中国重要的工程机械制造基地之一。成熟的制造产业链、高校科研力量和重型装备技术积累，让这座内陆城市把擅长的“陆地制造”延伸到了深海。 

One result is a 7-ton tracked work-class remotely operated vehicle (ROV) capable of operating at depths of up to 6,000 meters. It has already completed 48 days of continuous operation and traveled more than 200 kilometers along the seafloor without failure. Today, such equipment is being used in offshore wind power, subsea cable operations and marine engineering.

在这里诞生的一台履带式深海作业机器人重约7吨，最大作业深度达6000米，曾连续工作48天、在海底行驶超过200公里零故障。如今，这类装备正应用于海上风电、海底电缆和海洋工程等领域。 

From construction machinery to deep-sea equipment, this inland city is taking its manufacturing capabilities into ever deeper waters.

从工程机械之城到深海装备，一座内陆城市正在把制造能力带向更深的海洋。
