Intelligent + globalization accelerates the resumption of production in China's manufacturing industry

Intelligent robots flexibly operate between warehouses and production lines, replacing traditional manual material handling; industrial Internet transparent supply chain realizes collaborative management of upstream and downstream enterprises; remotely operated fully automated production lines ensure the supply of resources for epidemic prevention materials

This kind of scene is being staged in the gradually restored Chinese manufacturing enterprises.

On the one hand, due to the epidemic situation, there are "three major problems" in the remanufacturing and resumption of manufacturing, such as insufficient staffing, uneven pace of industrial chain resumption, and insufficient backlog of production capacity; During this period, accelerating the pace of intelligentization and globalization has become a "solution" generally recognized by China's manufacturing industry.

"During the epidemic, we received inquiries from hundreds of companies in the pharmaceutical, automotive, food, footwear, e-commerce, and other industries," said Sun Di, marketing director of Shanghai Kuicang Intelligent Technology Co., Ltd., a head company of intelligent storage robots. As a result of the epidemic, we judge that many manufacturing companies will accelerate the pace of 'machine substitution' in internal logistics. "

In fact, compared with the current recovery rate of 97.08% in China's top 500 manufacturing industries, the resumption of small and medium-sized enterprises is not optimistic. A few days ago, Zhejiang ’s cross-province “car robbing” of chartered cars and chartered planes just reflected the extreme dependence of a large number of enterprises on front-line manpower from one side.

In this regard, Tang Yunyi, a researcher at the Shanghai Academy of Social Sciences, analyzed that China ’s SMEs themselves have problems with weak intelligent upgrade capabilities and low-cost path dependence. "Industrial upgrades are associated with labor upgrades. When the urbanization process is not over, small Companies often gather a lot of low-end labor. "

"Due to the problems related to cost and accessibility, and last year, a large number of small and medium-sized enterprises still hold a wait-and-see attitude towards the industrial Internet," the relevant person in charge of Intelligent Yunke Information Technology Co., Ltd. believes that the sudden outbreak has exposed the existence of manufacturing enterprises. Many problems, lack of staff and poor supply chain constraints on the resumption of production will force many companies to seek intelligent transformation.

"Currently, some industrial parks are building a digital" shared machine tool "based on the Industrial Internet, equipped with skilled operators, for local small and medium-sized enterprises to carry into the production, which will become a new channel for SMEs to improve their manufacturing capabilities." The responsible People said.

During the epidemic, poor supply chains are the dilemma faced by most companies. It is the norm for upstream and downstream companies to share epidemic prevention materials and resume work plans to accelerate resumption of work.

Industrial Internet platform operating company Intelligent Cloud Branch provides another intelligent solution. Its factory digital manufacturing operation system can not only realize the whole process management from planned production to production and warehousing, but also can obtain the inventory and demand status of upstream and downstream enterprises in real time, realize the coordination and coordinated supply of the entire industry chain, and increase the supply chain management. Transparency and convenience.

"Modern industrial competition is not a competition of individual enterprises, but a competition of supply chain systems." Zhang Huiming, a professor of economics at Fudan University, pointed out that after the epidemic, enterprises should recognize that partners have risen and fallen in the industry chain and need to jointly deal with the crisis and Competition, rather than simply reorganizing the supply and marketing structure.

The epidemic situation also prompted the manufacturing industry to think deeply about the globalization layout.

"This epidemic has a longer-term strategic impact for us. The company has to redefine the supply chain system. After the globalization of the order market demand, we have to think more about globalizing the supply chain to deal with the future. Possible uncontrollable factors, "said Luo Xin, chairman of GCL Integrated Technology Co., Ltd.

In Tang Yunyi's view, further integration of Chinese manufacturing into the global supply chain will help drive the transformation and upgrading of Chinese manufacturing.

"Currently, China's value chain is constantly improving, and the transfer of low-end labor-intensive industries to other parts of the world is a natural process. However, from the perspective of the demand side of the industrial chain, China has a huge market, and the manufacturing industry is near the market Directly reflecting the market response and demand in the supply chain will help it transition to customized high-end manufacturing. "Tang Yunyi pointed out.

Zhang Bin, general manager of Shanghai Silode Stainless Steel Co., Ltd., believes that the warning that the epidemic has brought to the Chinese manufacturing industry is that one point must be selected in the product or technology to the extreme, making it an irreplaceable global supply chain. Role; Second, the soft power of enterprise emergency management should be strengthened.

Slot, which exports products to the world, achieved a 85% recovery rate within two weeks. "Under the requirements of the international market, the company has prepared and prepared a multi-level emergency response plan in accordance with international safety and health inspection standards," Zhang Bin said. We benefit from globalization. "
