The performance of China's manufacturing industry in 2018 is worth looking forward to

China has also ushered in a wave of "machine replacement" boom, in many traditional small and medium-sized factories in China, many processing operations are still mainly rely on manual completion. The mobility of people and the inefficiency of processing have become a huge problem. And traditional factories have a big pain point, that is, they often experience unexpected shutdowns. Unplanned downtime not only causes the stagnation of production, but also causes immeasurable hidden damage to the equipment. A semiconductor plant can lose $1 million because of a 2-hour shutdown, and the loss is the most frightening consequence of an unplanned shutdown.

In order to prevent the unplanned shutdown of equipment, factories usually need to arrange 24-hour shift workers for inspection, resulting in a serious loss of factory manpower. Moment-to-moment inspection also does not fully detect the various factors that may lead to unplanned equipment downtime. Traditional factories through the hand, ear and other most primitive way of inspection, so that many equipment defects are easy to be ignored, it is those small problems caused by the loss of more than millions of losses. Secondly, due to the fear of serious losses caused by unplanned shutdown, many factories will also buy a large number of spare parts to prevent the maintenance needs of unplanned shutdown, and the reality is that the unplanned shutdown failure cycle of some equipment is very long, resulting in a large number of spare parts are not used, resulting in cost waste.

Today, labor costs rise year by year, the economic substitution effect of automation equipment gradually appears with the disappearance of the demographic dividend, the number of manual labor age population in China shows a trend of continuous reduction, corresponding to this is, the average wage in China's manufacturing industry continues to grow rapidly, it is understood that the compound annual growth rate of 13.9% from 2009 to 2014; On the contrary, the price of automation equipment is falling year by year. Many enterprises have realized the importance of "machine replacement", even if the one-time purchase of machinery needs to spend a lot of money, but many enterprises are willing to do such investment, only technological update can have a stronger competitiveness, in today's era, every enterprise needs to pay attention to innovation, keep up with the pace of The Times in order to go to the end.

When it comes to intelligent manufacturing, I believe you will not feel strange. Intelligent manufacturing is the main direction of Made in China 2025, why should it be a main direction of attack? The reason is that the rapid development of a new generation of information technology and artificial intelligence has attracted people's attention, and this is precisely to provide a good opportunity for China's manufacturing industry to catch up with the manufacturing industry in the forefront of development in the United States, Germany and Japan. If we can grasp this opportunity and combine the development of a new generation of information technology with the urgent need for the transformation and upgrading of China's manufacturing industry, we will greatly improve the level of Chinese manufacturing.

In recent years, intelligent manufacturing has attracted widespread attention in our country, now whether it is in the Yangtze River Delta, the Pearl River Delta, or other manufacturing industry clusters in our country, from the coastal areas to the mainland, in order to solve the problems of rising labor costs, product quality improvement, environmental rectification, and recruitment difficulties, we must gradually implement "machine replacement", so it is foreseeable that, "Machine replacement" has become a general trend, which will have a very important impact on China's manufacturing industry.
