First, from digitalization of production process to intelligent factory
In the process manufacturing fields of petrochemical, steel, metallurgy, building materials, textile, papermaking, medicine, food and so on, the internal driving force for enterprises to develop intelligent manufacturing lies in the controllable product quality. It focuses on starting from the digital construction of production and changing from product end control to full process control based on the demand of quality control. Therefore, its intelligent factory construction mode is:
First, promote the digitization of the production process, build a dynamic transparent traceability system covering the whole process on the basis of the construction of information systems for individual links such as production manufacturing and process management, and realize cross department collaborative control of the whole process of product production based on a unified visual platform.
Second, promote the integration of production management, build the enterprise CPS system, deepen the integration of core business systems such as production and manufacturing, operation management, procurement and sales, and promote the integration and sharing of internal resources and information.
The third is to promote the Supply Chain Co assimilation, expand the CPS system to suppliers and logistics enterprises based on the demand of raw material procurement and distribution, horizontally integrate the collaborative resources and networks of suppliers and material distribution, realize the systematization and process of external raw material supply and internal production and distribution, and improve the operation efficiency of the supply chain inside and outside the factory.
Fourth, build a big data intelligent factory as a whole, promote end-to-end integration, and carry out personalized customization business.
Secondly, from intelligent manufacturing production units (equipment and products) to intelligent factories
In the discrete manufacturing fields such as machinery, automobile, aviation, shipbuilding, light industry, household appliances and electronic information, the core purpose of enterprises to develop intelligent manufacturing is to expand the product value space, focusing on the automation of single equipment and product intelligence, and achieving value growth based on the improvement of production efficiency and product efficiency. Therefore, its intelligent factory construction mode is:
First, promote the intellectualization of production equipment (production line), establish a workshop level intelligent production unit based on CPS system by introducing various intelligent equipment that meets the production needs, and improve the precision manufacturing and agile manufacturing capabilities.
The second is to expand the value-added services based on product intelligence, realize the interconnection with CPS system by using the intelligent device of the product, and support the remote fault diagnosis and real-time diagnosis of the product.
Third, promote the integration of workshop level and enterprise level systems, realize the seamless integration of production and operation and information sharing between upstream and downstream enterprises, and carry out collaborative innovation based on horizontal value networks.
Fourth, promote the integration of production and service, realize service-oriented transformation based on Intelligent factories, and improve industrial efficiency and core competitiveness.
Finally, from personalized customization to Internet factory
In the field of consumer goods manufacturing, such as home appliances, clothing and household appliances, which are closest to the users, the focus of enterprises’ development of intelligent manufacturing is to fully meet the diversified needs of consumers and realize scale economic production, and focus on the innovation of mass customization mode through the Internet platform. Therefore, its intelligent factory construction mode is:
First, promote personalized customized production, introduce flexible production lines, build an Internet platform, promote deep interaction between enterprises and users, widely collect demands, and carry out lean production based on demand data model.
The second is to promote design virtualization, rely on the Internet to reverse integrate design links, open up the data chain of design, production and service, and use virtual simulation technology to optimize the production process.
The third is to promote the collaborative manufacturing network, change the traditional vertical organization mode, gather the upstream and downstream resources of the industrial chain with the flat and virtual new manufacturing platform as the link, and develop a new network collaborative manufacturing mode of remote customization, remote design and local production.
