China's Optics Valley · Since 2009 · 58 countries
One accountable partner for China's Optics Valley. Machines, photonics components and turnkey production lines from 1,200+ partner factories, proven before they ship and supported for as long as they run.
Optics Valley, seen from abroad
16,000 companies.
In one valley in Wuhan.
One of the world's most complete industrial chains.
Fiber, chips, lasers, optics, machines and whole production lines.
From abroad, one of the hardest to use.
Which one can you trust? Who makes ten suppliers work as one? Who answers when the machine stops?
Our mission
Put China's Optics Valley to work for the world.
What we deliver
Light is what Optics Valley does best. It cuts steel, builds batteries, carries data and sees heat. We organise it around the job you need done.
Cut, weld, clean and mark metal and more, with fiber, UV and CO2 lasers, CNC, robot cells and vision inspection.
Assembly lines for energy-storage modules and PACKs, with the cell testing, laser welding and EOL testing inside them.
Optical fiber and cable, FTTx and ODN components, data-center cabling and transceivers, matched to your bill of materials.
Laser sources, optics, galvo scanners, machine vision and thermal modules for companies building their own products.
From zero to line
Start with one machine or an empty building. The partner, the contract and the commitments stay the same.
Plan a line or plant01
One machine, matched to your part and tested on your sample before you order.
16,000+ machines delivered
02
Machines, fixtures, robots, extraction and safety, set up to work as one station.
03
Process plan, takt, layout, integration and factory acceptance for a complete production line.
3,000+ line projects
04
From an empty building to a running factory: utilities, equipment from many factories, installation, training and ramp-up.
How we work
Buying from 1,200 factories should feel like buying from one. These are the promises we put in writing.
You ask “Which of 16,000 companies can actually do my job?”
We match your part, output and budget to factories we have audited, and we tell you when you don't need the expensive option.
You ask “Is the spec real?”
We test your part in Wuhan, run every machine before it is crated, and show you the factory acceptance test on video.
Drag the beam across the plate
You ask “Who makes ten suppliers work as one?”
One project manager, one contract and one shipment, however many factories are behind it.
You ask “Who handles export, certification and installation?”
Export documents, certification support, freight, installation, commissioning and training, until it runs in your plant.
You ask “Who answers when it stops?”
Spare parts, remote support, retrofits and upgrades for the working life of the equipment.
On the record
Why Optics Valley
Wuhan's East Lake High-tech Zone, known as China's Optics Valley, is where China drew its first practical optical fiber in 1976. Today it holds one of the world's most complete photonics and manufacturing supply chains.

Partner with ZeroLineFAQ
ZeroLine is the international sales, engineering and service partner for more than 1,200 factories in and around Wuhan's Optics Valley in China. Since 2009 we have delivered more than 16,000 machines and 3,000 production-line projects to customers in 58 countries.
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.
Optics Valley is the East Lake High-tech Zone in Wuhan, Hubei. It holds about half of China's optoelectronic information industry and around 16,000 optoelectronic companies, and it is the world's largest base for optical fiber, cable and optical communication devices.
Yes. Send a sample or a drawing. Our engineers test it in Wuhan and send you video, photos, the settings used and a quote for that exact setup. For laser machines, testing is free apart from postage.
Yes. We have delivered more than 3,000 production-line projects. We plan the process and layout, integrate equipment from several factories, run factory acceptance, then install, train and support ramp-up on site.
We have customers in 58 countries. We crate for sea or air freight and quote to your port or your door, with the voltage, plugs, labels and documents your country needs.
