New Manufacturing Creates An Upsurge Of Innovation, Making Production More Intelligent.

As an important driving force for the new round of technological revolution and industrial transformation, new manufacturing is creating an upsurge of innovation in China.


Digital technology can not only link production and consumption, but also change the operation mode of production from within, and optimize production efficiency only when data is moved and the production line is not touched.


Recently, the opening ceremony of the twentieth Dalian international industrial exposition focused on "intelligent manufacturing" and concerned about industrial transformation and upgrading, which became a highlight of this event. Intelligent equipment, 3D printing technology, industrial robots, modern biomedicine... The exhibition area of 40 thousand square meters concentrates on the development trend of intelligent industrial production. Today, the digital process is reshaping the traditional production chain and converging into the strong potential energy of China's new manufacturing.


Digital technology is redefining the production chain. Automation, digitalization and intellectualization of new manufacturing are coming out. In the digital workshop, active links, collaboration, infection and empowerment can be used to improve production efficiency in all links of the production chain. On the intelligent production line, workers wearing dark blue uniforms work side by side with robots, forming a symbiotic ecosystem of man-machine cooperation. And by printing this disruptive technology through 3D, parts can be printed in a customized shape. An international media has envisaged the third industrial revolution: software is more intelligent, robots are more dexterous, and network services are more convenient. This trend is emerging in more and more Chinese factories.


The micro level of innovation vitality echoes the statistical data at the macro level. More than 200 digital workshops and intelligent factories have been initially built, and the output of industrial robots has exceeded 140 thousand units. The penetration rate of industrial R & D design tools has increased to 68%. An analysis report predicts that the scale of China's intelligent manufacturing industry will exceed 1 trillion and 900 billion yuan this year. These figures show that new manufacturing as an important driving force for the new round of technological revolution and industrial transformation is creating an upsurge of innovation in China.


With the help of big data and algorithm, new manufacturing can successfully achieve precise docking between supply and consumption, so as to achieve customized manufacturing and flexible production. For example, the Chinese time-honored brand "Zhu Fu copper art", through the analysis of consumption data, has produced more suitable copper carving products that are more suitable for young people, so that the old brands that have inherited 5 generations have been reborn. For example, Shenzhou International as a garment foundry enterprise, thanks to the digital technology empowerment of big data, can respond in real time to the market demand of small batch and multiple batches, and has realized high profit, high growth and high market value. Through the analysis of big data and cloud computing, we can get the data of online consumer end and offline production data open, and use the big data of consumer side to reverse optimize the production of production end, so as to provide a new path for the transformation and upgrading of manufacturing industry.


In fact, digital technology can not only open up production and consumption from outside, but also change the operation mode of production from within. For example, the industrial brain of Ali cloud uses machine learning technology to model data and impart it to machines so that machines can help solve problems in the daily production environment. There is such an intuitive case: a solar cell production enterprise, the introduction of thousands of parameters into the "industrial brain", through artificial intelligence algorithm, all related parameters for deep learning calculation, real-time monitoring and control variables in the production process, and ultimately the optimal parameters in mass production accurately landing, greatly improving the yield of good products. In the photovoltaic, rubber, energy, communications, steel, petrochemical, cement and other traditional industries, through big data and cloud computing, we can optimize production efficiency without moving data or touching the production line.


Looking forward to the future, as 5G moves towards commercialization, Internet of things will turn from vision to reality. When the instant mass data generated by people, equipment, products and materials can be linked together, the industrial Internet platform will be built up gradually. In such a platform, the workshop will become a "organic life" in all aspects of cooperation and symbiosis, and the production line will think like human beings. With the boundary between people, machines, goods and services being broken, the efficiency of production will get a qualitative leap along with the digitalization and modeling of product lifecycle. This is exactly what the industrial Internet is showing, and it is also the direction of China's "Internet + manufacturing" effort.


China's development depends on the real economy, and China's strength depends on the real economy. In this technological revolution and industrial transformation, China, which is on the same starting line with the rest of the world, will seize the opportunity of the new industrial revolution and promote the high quality development of China's economy with new manufacturing.
