At the beginning of the new year, many workers who have returned to their hometowns for Chinese New Year have not returned to work. For SAIC Passenger Car's Lingang Plant, which is full of production orders, there is no panic in dealing with this situation. Here, the robot is "in charge of the house". The 477 welding robots in the body shop can automatically pick up various parts for assembly and welding in sequence; the robots in the assembly shop have been able to accurately find the engines corresponding to different models and deliver them to the production line. , to achieve mixed production of various models, with an average of 1 vehicle rolling off the assembly line every 76 seconds.
Smart factories are the main front for the digital transformation of Shanghai's manufacturing industry, involving integrated applications such as smart equipment and smart robots. Shanghai is promoting the construction of smart factories by classification and accelerating the layout of the new digital economy track.
From "Tall" to "Small and Beautiful"
"We have factories in Shanghai Lingang, Nanjing Pukou, Zhengzhou Economic Development, and Fujian Ningde. The Spring Festival holiday arrangements are different, but all production plans are interconnected in a back-end system. You know what you have in mind.” Yang Min, director of SAIC Passenger Vehicle Information System, introduced that the construction of a “smart factory” is a systematic project, which cannot be accomplished overnight, nor can any model be applied, and every industry and every enterprise has its own characteristics.
At the Lingang factory, every new car needs to go through the test of 4,000 close-up photos in 30 seconds. Through 17 sets of cameras to take pictures of exterior parts at the same time, the system can automatically prevent errors and alarm the assembly of all exterior parts of the online vehicle in real time.
The Lingang factory has built the first demonstration production line of unmanned body workshop in China, which has reached the world-class level. "This is the presentation of a high degree of mechanization and automation on the assembly line, but this is only a part of the digital factory." Yang Min believes that the supply chain of the automotive industry is very complex, and the construction of the digital factory enables vehicle companies to supply parts and components together Efficient business collaboration, cost reduction and efficiency increase, and the ultimate goal is "user orientation".
Through a series of digital means, SAIC Motor has solved the problems and troubles encountered by users in the process of viewing, using, repairing, and maintaining vehicles under the normalization of the epidemic, optimizing the user experience and reducing the labor cost of enterprises. The newly launched "Digital Marketing Transparent Order" allows users to understand the car manufacturing process in real time through the mobile APP in the cloud, realizing the interconnection between users and production. "Data-driven integration into the whole chain of production and operation, so that the data of the manufacturing industry can be of value."
This year, Shanghai will follow the pyramid structure and form a gradient cultivation system for smart factories based on three levels of benchmarking smart factory leadership, smart factory demonstration, and smart manufacturing excellent scenarios. Among them, there are both tall and high-end enterprises, such as SAIC Motor Passenger Vehicle, which has won the title of national "Intelligent Manufacturing Benchmark Enterprise" and is at the top of the pyramid; there are also "small and beautiful" enterprises, such as Lanbao Sensing Technology, which has built three fully automatic The production line and 3 flexible production lines realize data interconnection with upstream and downstream enterprises. When some foreign sensor companies stopped production and reduced production during the epidemic, they seized the opportunity and obtained more orders. Become a hidden champion by field.
Expected to be the first to release urban robot density
Under the normalized mode of epidemic prevention and control, the demand for industrial robots and highly automated production lines has been accelerated. "Robot workers" cooperate with employees in Shanghai to make production and operation of the enterprise more calm.
The latest data shows that the density of robots in key industries in Shanghai has reached 383 units per 10,000 workers, which is higher than the national average of 246 units. If this indicator is compared with the world, it has surpassed the fourth-ranked Germany (371).
At Shanghai Xinshida in Jiading, robots on the production line are mass-producing and assembling "self". This local company in Shanghai, which has been established for more than 20 years, is the company with the highest density of self-owned brand robots in Shanghai. At present, all four of its factories are building digital factories, and the density of robots has reached nearly 1,000 units/10,000 workers.
The density of industrial robots represents the degree of automated production in a country or region, and is an important reference in the digital transformation of the economy. Shanghai is expected to be the first city in the world to publish robot density this year.
According to the "14th Five-Year Plan" for the development of Shanghai's high-end equipment industry, by 2025, the scale of the high-end equipment industry will exceed 650 billion yuan, and the key sub-sectors will shift from international follow-up and parallel to leading. In the field of intelligent robots, Shanghai should make efforts in three aspects: promoting the upgrading of industrial robots, expanding the scale of service (special) robots, and breaking through the core components of robots. This year is the final year of the "Special Action Plan for Building 100+ Smart Factories (2020-2022)". The special action plan plans to build 100 smart factories and 10 benchmark smart factories in three years.
In 2021, Shanghai's industrial added value will exceed 1 trillion yuan for the first time, and its scale will remain the first in the country. Liu Ping, deputy director of the Shanghai Municipal Commission of Economy and Information Technology, believes that this shows that Shanghai is forming a trend of high-end industries and reflects the high-quality economic development level. The construction of smart factories will bring new impetus to the sustained high-quality growth of Shanghai's industry.
