How do traditional factories transition to smart factories?

In the traditional manufacturing execution system, task orders and job instructions are issued manually, machinery and equipment are operated manually, and production statistics are inputted manually for summarization. Not only does it require more workers, but it is also inefficient and prone to errors. In the future, the traditional manufacturing enterprises will be to the "smart factory" transformation, with automation and machinery and equipment instead of manual, processing and manufacturing process is completely dependent on the equipment to complete the equipment can be interconnected, personnel, materials, equipment, finished products and semi-finished products to achieve the integration of management and control. So to realize the wisdom of the factory, China's traditional manufacturing industry need to meet what conditions?

One, the production of information technology

China is becoming the center of the global manufacturing industry, China is a large manufacturing country, but not yet a strong country. Therefore, the state has identified the national policy of industrialization through information technology to promote manufacturing enterprises to implement manufacturing information technology.

Manufacturing informatization combines information technology, automation technology, modern management technology and manufacturing technology, which can improve the operation, management, product development and production of manufacturing enterprises in all aspects, improve production efficiency, product quality and innovation ability of enterprises, reduce consumption, and drive the innovation of product design methodology and design tools, the innovation of enterprise management mode, the innovation of manufacturing technology and the innovation of inter-enterprise collaborative relationship, so as to drive the innovation of product design methods and design tools, the innovation of enterprise management mode, the innovation of manufacturing technology and the innovation of inter-enterprise collaborative relationship. Innovation of inter-enterprise collaboration, so as to achieve product design and manufacturing and enterprise management of information technology, intelligent production process control, manufacturing equipment, numerical control and consulting services of the network, comprehensively enhance the competitiveness of China's manufacturing industry.

China recently announced the "promotion of information consumption to expand domestic demand in a number of opinions" that: to enhance the level of support services for the software industry. Strengthen the development and application of intelligent terminals, intelligent voice, information security and other key software, accelerate the promotion of safe and reliable key application systems. Facing the needs of enterprise informatization, breakthroughs in core business information systems, large-scale application systems and other key technologies, the development of open standards-based embedded software and application software, and accelerate the industrialization of industrial software such as product life cycle management (PLM), manufacturing execution management system (MES). Strengthen industrial control system software development and security applications. Accelerate the promotion of enterprise informatization, enhance the level of comprehensive integrated application and business co-operation and innovation, and promote the servitization of manufacturing industry. Strongly support the software application store, software as a service (SaaS) and other service model innovation.

Two, the production process is highly automated

Industrial robots can be said to have opened to change the world's curtain, which directly brings the automated production line, the history of the first time the workers from the large-scale production line to liberate. In developed countries, industrial robots automated production line sets of equipment has become the mainstream of automation equipment and the future direction of development. Foreign automotive industry, electronic and electrical industry, engineering machinery and other industries have been a large number of industrial robots for automated production.

With the cost-effectiveness of industrial robots approaching the inflection point, labor shortage and other issues, the domestic market for the use of industrial robots, will become the trend.

The application of industrial robots for the development of the manufacturing industry plays a major role. The application of industrial robots is also being extended from the automotive industry to the general industry, in addition to metal processing, food and beverage, plastics and rubber, 3C, pharmaceuticals and other industries, robots in the wind energy, solar energy, transportation, construction materials, logistics, and even waste disposal and other industries can make a big difference.

After realizing the above two steps, China's manufacturing industry will have a series of advantages such as high efficiency and low production costs. At the same time, automation and information technology will be fully integrated to create the best conditions for the realization of the smart factory. Smart factory will use efficient network technology and equipment monitoring technology to strengthen information management and services; clearly grasp the production and marketing processes, improve the controllability of the production process, reduce manual intervention on the production line, timely and correct collection of production line data, as well as reasonable production planning and scheduling of production, and coupled with green and intelligent means and intelligent systems and other emerging technologies in one, to build a highly efficient and energy-saving, green and environmentally friendly, comfortable and humane factories. and a comfortable environment for humanized factories.
