China's manufacturing industry + Internet =? Internet of Things + Big Data may have the answer


This is an open question. You can give any answer you think is appropriate, because no one knows where its end point is? The infinite possibilities contained in the manufacturing industry have attracted everyone's attention. When the wave of the Internet came, many industries entered the overtaking lane, but the traditional manufacturing industry seemed to be slow to react and faltered. Is it that the manufacturing industry and the Internet are incompatible, or is it the wrong method? Enterprises in the industry have never given up exploring, and today we will also discuss this new model.

We have been discussing what the Internet has brought us and what it has changed. In fact, it cannot change the physical or chemical properties of matter, but it can independently lead a new revolution and bring great vitality to different industries and even the entire national economy, relying on its two special properties: touch points and links. The Internet uses information to allow different objects to break through the barriers of time and space and connect together. We also benefit from this method to obtain information and data more efficiently. From then on, the way we understand the world has changed, and the time cost of acquiring knowledge will be greatly reduced. Reading thousands of books in today's society may really be more efficient than traveling thousands of miles.

The Internet has changed the way we understand the world, so how can we upgrade the way we transform the world? This requires us to use the Internet's thinking to transform the manufacturing industry. Smart factories may be one of the means. Today, we can achieve machine-to-machine dialogue, which is entirely due to the large-scale rise of Internet factories. Internet factory is a fashionable new word, a new thing after the collision of "Internet + manufacturing". Its core is to use Internet thinking to transform engineering, organically connect independent factories with the Internet, and greatly improve production efficiency. At present, Internet applications are mostly in marketing, after-sales service, procurement and other links. In the future, there will be more applications in the manufacturing link and between enterprises, which will bring subversive or revolutionary changes to the existing production methods. Placing orders online and manufacturing personalized products offline will become the trend of the future. Chen Ning, general manager of Yiwang Information, believes that the "Internet factory" mainly includes the following dimensions: "Break away from the constraints of physical form and exist in the form of information; attach importance to individual differences, and the requirements for precision production become higher; "Internet of Everything" and "Data is King".

The most important dimension is cloud manufacturing in short, which is considered to be the future form and trend of the development of intelligent manufacturing. The management programs of all production equipment of the enterprise can be hung on the cloud, so the equipment can be connected in the cloud, and the equipment can communicate with each other, and the equipment can exchange information with the production line. In the future, if an enterprise wants to produce products, it only needs to connect the required equipment together in the cloud, through WIFI, wireless, wired, etc., and then inject the production program from the cloud into these production equipment and into the production process to produce the products needed by the enterprise. After production, The enterprise can recycle these programs to the cloud. The next time the enterprise wants to produce another product, because the process path is different, the enterprise can reconnect and match these devices, and then download the production program to produce.

Mr. Chen Ning, who focuses on big data analysis and the application of the Internet of Things, believes that in the future, big data can be used to analyze that customers may buy a new car in the near future, and then send the recommendation information to the customer. Customers can customize the car according to their preferences from the mobile terminal and give it to the factory; after the factory receives the customer's order, it will go from the plan-BOM list-purchase list-arrange production scheduling-MES-WMS-TMS-users. Factory production during this period includes the concept of cloud manufacturing. At the same time, MES is the core of Industry 4.0. The future is the application of an integrated platform , a set of systems is enough for manufacturing enterprises. Integrate financial management system, human resource management system, warehouse management system, production management system, etc., and there will be no more information islands, because enterprise management is a whole.

Information software has gradually emerged in the manufacturing field, and various countries have begun to issue corresponding policies to encourage the development of related industries. The United States and Germany are undoubtedly the temporary leaders on the track. Information network technology and superb manufacturing level are their advantages. my country still has a long way to go on this journey. I hope that more and more companies like Yiwang Information will always adhere to independent research and development, self-control, build transparent factories for enterprises, realize smart manufacturing, and enable manufacturing enterprises to seize the initiative in the new era. By then, the answer to "Made in China + Internet =?" will also be revealed.
