What's the difference between manufacturing and intelligent manufacturing? What does intelligent manufacturing cloud mean?

Intelligent manufacturing originates from the research of artificial intelligence. It is generally believed that intelligence is the sum of knowledge and intelligence, the former is the basis of intelligence, and the latter refers to the ability to acquire and use knowledge to solve problems. Intelligent manufacturing should include intelligent manufacturing technology and intelligent manufacturing system. Intelligent manufacturing system can not only enrich knowledge base in practice, but also have the function of self-learning, and the ability to collect and understand environmental information and its own information, analyze and judge its own behavior.

Intelligent manufacturing cloud platform is the foundation of building intelligent manufacturing system. By analyzing a large number of discrete information from different information sources (including automatic collection and manual input) and different terminal access points; For example, on-site collection and storage of mold information, fixture information, container information, tooling information, personnel information, inventory information, process information, video resource information, etc. Realize the information integration of multiple data sources, and finally establish a variety of data analysis models, and realize the data mining of basic information through the flexibly configurable business-driven model, and finally get accurate, timely and comprehensive statistical data. Intelligent manufacturing cloud platform, as an important IT infrastructure bearing future enterprise applications, undertakes the heavy responsibility of stable operation and business innovation. With the concentration of data and services, the construction and operation of cloud platform has brought great pressure to the information department. Therefore, the construction of the platform fully considers the high availability of services from the basic resource pool (computing, storage, network), virtualization platform, cloud application platform and other aspects, so that business applications can be quickly switched and migrated after the failure of the basic unit, and users are unaware of it, thus ensuring the continuity of services.

The overall architecture of intelligent manufacturing cloud platform is shown in the following figure:
