Xinhua News Agency reporters Qu Lingyan, Wei Yijun, Lin Guangyao
The manufacturing industry is the foundation of Zhejiang's province and the foundation of a strong province.
Driven by the "industrial brain + factory of the future", the pace of industrial digitization and digital industrialization in Zhejiang Province is getting faster and faster. The amplification, superposition, and multiplication effects of data production factors have been fully stimulated, leading more qualified manufacturing companies and industries The cluster actively changes and upgrades.
"Industrial Brain" supports the digital transformation of SMEs
As the new year is approaching, the workshop of Puyou Electromechanical Technology Co., Ltd. in Xinchang County, Shaoxing City, Zhejiang Province is in full swing.
"From two people on the front line to one person on multiple lines, the maximum number of employees is 400, and now 110 people can solve it." As the first batch of companies to experience the digital transformation of the "industrial brain", Huang Yonglong, general manager of Puyou Electromechanical, introduced, under the same output value The company's monthly electricity bill has dropped from 250,000 yuan to 200,000 yuan, profits have increased from 9.9% to 12%, and the average salary of employees has also increased by 35%.
The "Industrial Brain" is based on the Industrial Internet and data as a resource element. It integrates the industrial chain, supply chain, capital chain, and innovation chain, integrates the government side and the market side, connects the production side and the consumer side, and provides digital benefits for enterprise production and operation. Yes, to provide digital services for the construction of industrial ecology and digital means for economic governance.
Zhao Hanjun, deputy director of Xinchang County Economic and Information Bureau, told reporters that relying on the "industrial brain" and tailor-made system interfaces created by local bearing automation equipment leading company Tuoman Manufacturing for bearing companies, there are currently more than 20,000 units in the Xinchang bearing industry. The equipment is connected to the platform, the comprehensive utilization of equipment has increased from 48% to 63%, the energy consumption has been reduced by 10%, and the service response time has been reduced from 60 minutes to 20 minutes. The overall competitiveness of the industry has been greatly improved.
In Shangyu, Shaoxing, using the supply chain sector of the “industrial brain” of electric motors, small and medium-sized enterprises can use collective bargaining and group purchases to solve the problem of raw material cost control that enterprises are most concerned about.
In Ningbo, the material federation function of the “industrial brain” of the chemical industry has opened up the warehouses of various companies in the production chain. As long as they publish online, they can be immediately supplied nearby.
The "industrial brain" builds a strong innovation chain in the industrial chain of manufacturing enterprises.
In the first three quarters of this year, Zhejiang's industrial added value increased by 16.6% year-on-year, which was 4.8% higher than the national level; the output value of new industrial products increased by 35.4%; the output value rate of new products was 39.5%, an increase of 2.6% year-on-year.
"Future Factory" leads the new direction of "Intelligent Manufacturing"
With an average daily production of 1.05 million monocrystalline cells, the AI inspection was completed in 200 milliseconds... Entering the first batch of “future factories” in Zhejiang Province, Hengdian DMC 5G+ smart factory, the 5G network connected more than 1,000 terminals in the entire production line. The various systems from management, logistics to inspection have realized networking and intercommunication.
"The 208 mobile AGV robots in the original factory dropped an average of 10 times a day, every 2 minutes. Now using a stable 5G network, the drop rate is reduced to 0." Teng Le, Project Manager of Hengdian Dongci 5G+ Smart Factory, China Mobile Jinhua Branch It is said that the "factory of the future" is not only about reducing costs and improving quality, but also starting from layout design, introducing big data analysis tools to improve management efficiency, and summarizing the underlying laws to summarize and iterate, clarifying the direction of future smart manufacturing upgrades for the photovoltaic industry.
From leading “head goose factories”, such as Chint, Geely, and Haikang; single champion “chain master factories”, such as Boss, Dahua, and Jushi; platform-based “collaborative factories”, such as Alibaba Xunxi and Zhongce , DMC; to technical "hard core factories", such as Chunfeng Power, Dingli, Dongfang Cable... In 2020, Zhejiang Province will build the first batch of 12 "future factories", and take the lead in proposing and exploring the construction of "future factories" Paths and standards.
In 2021, Zhejiang Province will once again identify 33 enterprises to carry out the pilot construction of "factories of the future".
Lan Jianping, Dean of Zhejiang Institute of Industry and Information Technology, stated that the industries and advantages of the “future factories” cultivated and constructed in Zhejiang are not the same, but they are actively applying digital twins, artificial intelligence, and big data information technologies Exploring new smart manufacturing models and new formats such as collaborative manufacturing, shared manufacturing, personalized customization, "product + service", etc., have found their own way.
Digital transformation is not just for the present, but also for the future
Since 2013, Zhejiang began to implement "machine substitution". Currently, the number of robots in service exceeds 100,000, and the per capita labor productivity of industrial enterprises above designated size has increased by 51.2%.
Since 2018, Zhejiang has implemented an upgraded version of "machine substitution"-intelligent transformation and upgrading actions.
At present, there are 263 digital workshops and smart factories in Zhejiang Province, and more than 405,000 cloud-based companies have accumulated. The CNC equipment rate of typical enterprises in key manufacturing industries has reached 60.7%, and the industrial equipment networking rate has reached 42.3%. one.
From "machine substitution" to "industrial brain + future factory", Zhejiang Manufacturing has been making great achievements in the direction of Zhejiang "Intelligent Manufacturing" for a long time.
As a new manufacturing model, the "industrial brain + factory of the future" is still immature.
On the one hand, the current data openness is restricted by privacy, standards and technology, and the degree of openness in different places is not uniform; on the other hand, the cost of future factory construction is still high and there is a shortage of relevant talents.
"The'industry brain' is the support, and the'future factory' is the guide, which can promote the transformation of manufacturing models and create a new ecology of high-quality, high-performance, low-cost, and green manufacturing in China." Lin Zhongqin, academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering and President of Shanghai Jiaotong University Said that the digital revolution is not only in the present, but also in the future.
In response to the new round of technological revolution and industrial transformation opportunities, the construction of "industrial brain + factory of the future" will continue to explore and improve.
