The raging COVID-19 epidemic and the Sino-US trade friction have had a huge impact on the real economy, especially for small and medium-sized machining companies. It is a cruel test. Declining order volume, insufficient equipment utilization, increased operating costs, and sharp decline in production efficiency have become common problems faced by the machining industry. This forum brings together forces from government, industry, academia, research, industry, finance, etc. to discuss the topic of "How digitalization can help the upgrading of the machining industry", explore new paths for digital transformation in vertical industries, and promote industry development and enterprises. Improve quality and efficiency.
"Veterans" and "Rookies" *** speak out about the industry
Deng Jianhua, general manager of Dongguan Guzhuo Precision Components Co., Ltd., is a machinist who has been engaged in machining for more than ten years. Working industry veteran. In his view, the machining industry is the most fundamental basic manufacturing industry. It generally faces difficulties in recruiting workers and thin profits. Therefore, it is urgent to improve management and production efficiency through digitalization.
"Data cannot deceive people." Deng Jianhua introduced Yuzhen IoT at the beginning of 2019 to help the company do digital statistics. Yuzhen IoT can read the driving rate and completion rate of the machine in real time, and the data will be detailed to each operator and technician, which not only eliminates the possibility of data fraud, but also improves the enthusiasm of employees.
In addition, Yuzhen IoT also plays a great role in the life management and control of cutting tools. By extracting and analyzing the actual usage data of machine tools, the service life of each cutting tool can be accurately understood.
Zhang Fei, project manager of Dongguan Bilian Machinery Technology Co., Ltd., is deeply impressed by the benefits brought by the Yuzhen IoT digital lean production management system. By introducing a digital lean production management system, Pilian Technology has promoted the company to realize the digitalization and visualization of machine tools, which can monitor order progress and equipment status in real time, greatly improving the order delivery rate and equipment operation rate.
"Through real-time monitoring of processing data, our order delivery rate has increased by about 10%, and the equipment operating rate has also increased from 35% to about 45%." Zhang Fei said bluntly.
Hu Qinghua, production manager of Foshan Heyang Precision Metal Products Co., Ltd., believes that the most lacking aspects of lean production are digitalization and automation. "If you want to improve an enterprise through lean production, you must first have basic data to fully understand how much is wasted in the production process."
Through joint development with Yuzhen IoT, Hu Qinghua's company has greatly improved its Due to the level of leanness and automation, employees have changed from operating three machine tools to operating six. In one year, the production line has saved 56 people.
Compared with the veterans in the above-mentioned industries, Zhang Lin, general manager of Guangdong Quansheng Technology Co., Ltd., is considered a newcomer in the machining industry. As the second generation of the factory, although Zhang Lin has only taken over the factory for two years, he has thought deeply about "how to upgrade the factory through informatization and how the younger generation can take over the factory" and has made in-depth explorations into the digitalization of the factory.
Quansheng Technology has been deeply involved in the field of precision manufacturing for more than 20 years, specializing in the production of precision micro-components, and has a natural demand for lean production and lean management. In Zhang Lin's view, the machining industry has entered a stage of fierce competition. To transform traditional precision manufacturing into precision intelligent manufacturing, it must integrate with the current industrial Internet and use digital means to improve cost management, material control, and capital optimization.
Currently, the industrial park that Quansheng Technology is building is a technology manufacturing park that integrates modern management and lean management. It uses information technology to help customers achieve from 0 to 1 and from 0 to 1 in hardware products. Breakthroughs from 1 to 100 accelerate the implementation of innovative products and reduce the trial and error cost of innovative products.
Digitalization empowers traditional processing manufacturing industry
The forum organizer, Fang Yuzhen IoT, is a company born for the industrial Internet and hopes to create a one-stop service for the machining industry. platform to build a digital industrial world. Because the team itself has more than 10-15 years of experience in the machining industry, they position their customers in the machining industry.
Si Shinan, CEO of Yuzhen IoT Technology (Shanghai) Co., Ltd., introduced at the forum that through continuous innovation and continuous sharing of the latest innovation results and industry cutting-edge insights, Yuzhen IoT continues to help more in-depth Industry users explore new paths for digital transformation. Today, it has empowered more than a hundred discrete manufacturing companies, helping them successfully transform and upgrade, improving quality, reducing costs, and increasing efficiency.
“What Yuzhen IoT has been doing in the past two years is to digitally transform a large amount of traditional production capacity, including digitizing the company’s production factors, making the production process transparent, and visualizing the production results, and ultimately will It becomes digital production capacity." Si Shinan said that since this year, the company has begun to try to connect the upstream and downstream of the entire industry chain to help companies issue orders online.
Shenzhen Ant Factory Technology Co., Ltd. has also achieved empowerment in the field of non-standard parts processing. "Machine substitution is the general trend." Cai Maolin, chairman of Ant Factory, is engaged in the non-standard parts processing industry. The number of SKUs is very large and scattered at both ends, making procurement very difficult. But this area is very suitable for the introduction of the industrial Internet.
In his view, the four basic characteristics of the future industrial Internet are order digitalization, automatic supplier matching, agile flexible manufacturing, and rapid delivery. "In the next 2-3 years, digital drive will run through the entire chain and process of small batches, multiple varieties, and products from order production to delivery."
What Ant Factory has to do is to pass the entire data through The cloud is penetrated, from order receiving to path navigation to realizing everything on the cloud. In this way, companies can also open up idle equipment to small batch and multi-variety processing needs.
Cai Maolin revealed that Ant Works will establish the first fully digital agile manufacturing demonstration line in Shunde, Foshan next year to achieve unmanned order taking. "We mainly focus on customer needs of small batches and multiple varieties, and promise delivery time to customers not to exceed 24 hours."
Xiaomi Digital Technology Co., Ltd. hopes to empower more people through digital technology of small, medium and micro manufacturing enterprises. Its financial product director Chen Yu shared at the forum that the company has invested in nearly 300 ecological chain companies in the past ten years. I hope to become "the one who understands finance best in the manufacturing industry and is the best at manufacturing in finance."
Tianxing Digital, a subsidiary of his company, is committed to providing full-chain, full-cycle, global financial services, breaking the traditional credit model, and building corporate financial credit through product life cycle management and data verification, and through data precipitation. .
“With the help of Yuzhen IoT’s digital system, we have increased transparency and obtained the most authentic production information, thereby enhancing mutual trust between borrowers and lenders, and ultimately solving the difficulty of corporate capital turnover and the long cycle of traditional financial loans. , low efficiency and a series of other problems, which have greatly improved the efficiency of manufacturing financial operations," Chen Yu said.
New Strategies for the Development of Digital Economy for Entrepreneurs
At the forum, the guests also discussed the theme of "Digitalization helps the upgrading of the machining industry" and discussed the "Machine Tool Trading Market", Topics such as "Financial Leasing Model" and "Digital Orders" presented a wonderful dialogue.
Regarding the topic of whether the machine tool trading market has entered the stock replacement stage, Dai Jiandong, chairman of Shenzhen Huaya CNC Machine Tool Co., Ltd., bluntly said that due to the different definitions and levels of users, many customers are not pursuing the cheaper price of second-hand machine tools. , but has very high requirements for product accuracy. “Although second-hand machine tools are very popular, they will not have a great impact on new machines.
”
Li Jinzhe, business director of 51 Machine Tool Network, also believes that the popularity of second-hand machine tool transactions is mainly due to the current number of machine tools. Although the circulation of second-hand machine tools will show intensive growth in the future, it still cannot be said that Second-hand mobile phones will outnumber new ones. “With the development of the domestic machining industry in the future, the transaction of second-hand mobile phones will basically stabilize. ”
Regarding the topic of what new financial leasing models have emerged during the process of digitalization assisting the transformation and upgrading of the machining industry, Chen Yu, financial product director of Xiaomi Digital Technology Co., Ltd., believes that digital finance essentially means Efficiency.
"When traditional financial institutions conduct research on small, medium and micro enterprises, they must visit the actual controller and see the financial statements and collateral. The entire process takes at least 2-3 weeks and can take at least 10 days. 1-2 months. After digital finance obtains data authorization from an enterprise, the first thing to do is to improve the efficiency of the entire lengthy financial link and further assist the entire operation of the enterprise. ” she said.
Cui Yougang, director of South China of Ping An Leasing’s Small and Micro Finance Division, believes that finance is a service industry and is meant to serve the manufacturing industry. However, the essence of finance is to control risks first. "Only by controlling risks can we ensure a steady stream of trust value and promote the stable, two-way, win-win development of the financial industry. "
As an example, he said that Ping An Leasing has also achieved online digitization through the whole chain. Ping An Leasing has completed the entire process of a project from a customer's submission of information to online import to the approval stage as quickly as possible. 28 minutes.
Talking about the difference between online automatic order delivery and offline self-operated models, Cai Maolin, chairman of Ant Factory, believes that if you, as a platform company, cannot solve the pain points of customers, you will Simply matching the transaction, or even changing the upstream and downstream that were originally very close to the upstream and downstream, may worsen the quality of the entire transaction.
“So we have to work with companies like this. Cooperate with companies like Yuzhen to avoid delays in delivery through digital real-time monitoring of every link. "Cai Maolin said.
Regarding the issue of data privacy protection, Cui Yougang said that many customers often encounter data privacy issues when financing. From a financial perspective, the establishment of a credit system requires time and cost. Only When your information is fully open on a safe basis, your information will build your credibility, so companies can open data in a safe manner.
In Chen Yu's view, Big Brother is needed. For many small and medium-sized enterprises to establish a shared ecosystem in the digital economy, Big Brother needs to play a role as a model and support from government departments to jointly promote the protection of digital security. Enterprises sign corresponding digital authorization and privacy agreements
