Chinese manufacturing intelligence is getting closer

Under the global, intelligent, and networked global environment, "manufacturing must move toward intelligent manufacturing" has become the consensus of all countries in the world. Germany is promoting the "Industry 4.0" plan. The United States is promoting the concept of "Industrial Internet". China has also launched a development plan such as "Made in China 2025" in due course. It has endeavored to promote the upgrading of traditional manufacturing to intelligent manufacturing and comprehensively improve the quality of manufacturing.
In the course of development over the past decades, although China has become a "manufacturing country," manufacturing scale ranks first in the world, but there is still a big gap between the overall level of manufacturing and advanced countries. The Action Plan for “Made in China 2025” is the action plan for China to transform from a “manufacturer” to a “manufacturer”, and building an intelligent factory is one of the important tasks. From 2015 to 2017, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has supported a total of more than 500 intelligent manufacturing integrated standardization and new model application projects, and designated 110 projects as "smart manufacturing pilot demonstration projects", including the Haier Group has independent intellectual property rights COSMO smart factory operating system.
The construction and promotion of smart factories is an inevitable result of social and economic development. It is an inevitable result of the development of science and technology, and it is also a necessity for enterprises to obtain a sustainable development competitive advantage. We believe that the smart factory of the future will bring more surprises to the world.
If it is not on the ground, reporters can hardly imagine that the actual number of employees in the 87,000-square-meter factory is less than 400.
This is a scene seen by the reporter recently visiting Haier's central air-conditioning interconnection plant in the Sino-German Industrial Park in the West Coast New District of Qingdao City, Shandong Province. The plant is already Haier's eighth interconnected factory to date.
Why is the factory "empty?"
With huge space, spacious environment, and machine-electronic work, within two hours of the reporter’s visit, there was hardly any work for factory employees.
Liu Xiaobo, director of the Quality Department of Haier Central Air-Conditioning Air-Conditioning Factory, said that most of the workers in the factory are currently responsible for supervision and inspection, and the factory has basically achieved “intelligence”.
In addition to the small number of workers, Yang Weixin, head of Haier's central air conditioning interconnection plant, also introduced that before the establishment of the factory, 3D simulation technology was used to eliminate 169 intervention items. It is precisely because of the optimization of the process before the construction of the factory, this plant has been operating for 9 months since its completion, a device has not moved.
“At present, the factory mainly produces magnetic suspension centrifuges and other central air-conditioning products. Liu Xiaobo told reporters that in large factories, it is difficult for reporters to see people walking in factories. On the contrary, there are many robotic robots.
A fully loaded vehicle was passing through the factory. The reporter was close to the trolley. The carrier immediately stopped and flashed a red light. The reporter then withdrew. The carrier immediately “recovered” the route and continued to move toward the production line.
The cost of building a smart factory is obviously high. Yang Weixin said that the construction of the Haier central air-conditioning interconnection plant began in January 2016, with a total investment of 500 million yuan. In the past five years, the plant's production capacity has achieved double-digit growth, and this year is expected to increase by 70%. If no accident occurs, the cost can be recovered next year.
How to achieve "private customization"?
After visiting the Haier Smart Factory, the reporter found that Haier's innovation comes more from its emphasis on consumer perception. On the one hand, it realizes interactive interaction through technological innovation, and on the other hand, it enhances user experience through smart home.
When talking about the difference between a smart factory and a traditional factory, Wang Hongtao, director of operations at Cosmoplat of Haier, stated that it used to be a factory for inventory, and that the factory in the future will become a user's factory.
In the exhibition room of Haier's central air-conditioning interconnection factory, the staff touched the screen with their fingers to demonstrate to reporters the process of realizing the “private customization” of customers. There were 11 options for user customization, including information such as cooling capacity and capacity, and the user’s choice. When finished and click confirm, an order number will be generated. After the user has finished ordering the product, he can also remotely watch the subscription of his/her own product at any time.
"The power of one plus one is always greater than two. If a company wants to get an order, it needs to start from the customer's point of view. It is the new issue that will solve the pain point of the user first and foremost," said Wang Hongtao.
SMEs need to change their thinking
Unlike electronic products and other high-consumption products, household appliances have become indispensable "family and friends" in the family. Although home appliances have been changing, but due to the lack of creativity in the product, "one after the other" has become the principle of the purchase of the public.
In response to this, Wang Hongtao believes that compared with other developing countries, whether Germany or the United States, their technological advantage is relatively better than China. Therefore, China's home appliance enterprises urgently need to upgrade the level of automation to meet the higher level needs of consumers.
Wang Hongtao believes that Chinese manufacturing has been facing many problems in the process of intelligent transformation. Among them, "standards are not unified, directions are not clear, and methods and patterns are disorderly and disorderly."
As early as 2015, China issued the "Guideline for the Construction of a National Intelligent Manufacturing Standard System." “The state has already defined the five major standards for smart manufacturing in China, namely, 'Open, Connected, Flexible, Smart, and Visible'. This provides guidance and standards for the transition of Chinese companies to smart manufacturing. Therefore, we believe that building an integrated, The digital and intelligent service platform to better satisfy the user's personalized experience is the new direction for the transformation and upgrading of the company, said Wang Hongtao.
“The main direction of each country is different. The U.S. Internet and software have done a lot. German technology has done a great job, but China has a vast market for applications.” Wang Hongtao believes that only through the opening up of the platform can we better Drive business upgrading.
Transforming to smart manufacturing: and different
The report shows that at present, China's smart manufacturing industry is still in its initial development phase. Most of the companies are in the R&D phase. Only 16% of companies are in the smart manufacturing application phase. From the perspective of the economic benefits of smart manufacturing, 52% of corporate smart manufacturing revenue contribution rate is less than 10%, 60% of corporate smart manufacturing profit contribution rate is less than 10%. The reason why the majority of small and medium-sized enterprises have a low degree of smart manufacturing is that the cost of intelligent upgrades has inhibited the needs of enterprises.
In recent years, as companies have placed greater emphasis on scientific and technological innovations, companies have committed themselves to building smart factories and deep-growing robots in an attempt to start with smart manufacturing and become leaders in the industry.
Midea Group has acquired Germany's KUKA Group, one of the world's four largest robotics companies, in order to automate production in the general industry and to target the future of the home robot market. It is reported that the United States has invested a total of 1 billion yuan in smart manufacturing, and the number of robots has reached 562, saving 22,000 labor.
On the one hand, machines are labor-saving, and on the other hand, labor-absent areas can use “machines” to achieve efficient production operations.
Guangdong, which occupies a geographical advantage, also took all the stops. The first privately-owned "unmanned factory" has already started construction in Dongguan, marking the new phase of the local "machine-for-agent" strategy. Dongguan Songshanhu Changying Precision Technology Co., Ltd., which is building the plant, is a high-tech enterprise that produces and sells mobile phone series connectors, shields, and ultra-precise metal terminals and molds.
The company's executive deputy general manager Ren Xiangsheng introduced that before manual operation of CNC machine tools, product processing, often prone to safety problems, the stability of product quality is also relatively poor.
With the rapid development of science and technology, machines are gradually helping people to "power-saving." Due to the existence of many subjective factors, artificial production has no advantage in achieving product standardization and is no longer the company's "first choice." Ren Xiangsheng introduced that the company has made up its mind to set up an intelligent unattended factory, replacing manpower with a hardware manipulator, and establishing a highly intelligent software control system for remote network manipulation. "These will greatly increase the efficiency of the factory's work and product quality." Ren Xiangsheng said.
“As the shortage of labor in some areas becomes increasingly serious, the demand for robots will gradually increase, which will also force robots to achieve more breakthroughs in scientific research and more localization.” Shenzhen Zhong Wei Xing Technology Co., Ltd. Marketing Director Li Yuewei believes.
“With the advancement of machine substitutions, China’s robotics industry will develop rapidly and the era of China’s wisdom will soon come.” said Hu Wen, Chief Financial Officer of Liqun Automation Technology Co., Ltd.
Dr. Huang Yanghua, an assistant researcher at the Industrial Development Research Institute of the Institute of Industrial Economics of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, believes that with the implementation of strategies such as “machine substitution”, China’s robot market will rapidly develop to the order of trillions of dollars. It will stimulate more market players to enter this industry.
