Congratulations to Lenzing (Nanjing) Fiber Co., Ltd. on the successful procurement of the newly developed DNTS-8 time synchronization device.

Congratulations to Lenzing (Nanjing) Fiber Co., Ltd. on the successful procurement of the newly developed DNTS-8 time synchronization device.

Recently, Lenzing (Nanjing) Fiber Co., Ltd. issued a procurement announcement for a time‑server. Beijing Zhongxin Chuang promptly collaborated to develop a detailed proposal and recommended its self‑developed and manufactured DNTS‑8 model as the bid‑winning product. Following a fiercely competitive bidding process, Zhongxin Chuang stood out thanks to its high‑quality products and comprehensive after‑sales service, ultimately securing the time‑server project from Lenzing (Nanjing) Fiber Co., Ltd.

Lenzing Group is a global leader in cellulose fiber products and one of the most successful companies in the fiber industry. Lenzing is a global manufacturer of high-performance materials, transforming carbon dioxide and sunlight into efficient, elegant, and emotionally resonant products. Its offerings are widely used in the fashion and home‑textile sectors. Headquartered in Austria, Lenzing currently operates seven production facilities worldwide—two in Austria, as well as plants in the United Kingdom, the United States, Nanjing, China, and Indonesia—and maintains a global network of service and support offices. The company employs approximately 7,000 people worldwide.

Lan Jing (Nanjing) Fiber Co., Ltd. conducted an in-depth evaluation of the DNTS‑8 time server independently developed by Zhongxin Chuang. The results consistently exceeded the specified performance parameters, and the company expressed high satisfaction with both our product quality and after-sales service, proceeding to place a successful order and put the system into operation.

The network time server DNTS, developed by Beijing Zhongxinchuang Technology Co., Ltd., is a high-tech, intelligent, stand-alone, high-precision network time server based on the NTP/SNTP protocols. DNTS obtains standard clock signal information from GPS or BeiDou geostationary satellites and transmits this information over the network, enabling devices that require time signals—such as computers and controllers—to synchronize with the standard clock. When both GPS and BeiDou receivers are used, a priority can be defined; by default, BeiDou takes precedence, with GPS serving as a backup. If neither receiver has a signal, the DNTS‑8 relies on its built-in temperature‑compensated crystal oscillator or rubidium atomic clock for timekeeping, achieving a timekeeping accuracy of up to 1E‑12. DNTS transmits standard clock information via TCP/IP networks and supports multiple popular time‑distribution protocols, including NTP and time/UDP, as well as Zhongxinchuang’s proprietary time‑broadcast data packets with configurable UDP ports. The port numbers for NTP and time/UDP are fixed at 123 and 37, respectively, as specified in RFC‑123 and RFC‑37. Additionally, DNTS supports the broadcast mode of the SNTP protocol.
