Technologies such as robotics, artificial intelligence, 3D printing and new materials are triggering a new industrial revolution that will change the way goods are manufactured and change the landscape of the entire manufacturing industry. The new technological revolution is reshaping the global manufacturing landscape. If China's manufacturing industry does not keep up with the trend of the times, then the future of manufacturing is not in the United States, not China.

Technology is always bringing new changes to human society. In recent years, due to the sharp rise in labor costs, the global manufacturing industry is facing many new pressures. Transformation and upgrading have become an important symbol of the modernization of traditional manufacturing. With the development of automation control technology, robot technology, digital information technology, the production mode of manufacturing has begun to change, from dense population to technology-intensive, the future of factories will be fewer and fewer people.

Paul McGeely has long focused on the development of manufacturing technology and digital manufacturing. He believes that the digital revolution of the third industrial revolution will bring about a major change in the manufacturing model. The large-scale assembly line manufacturing has ended, and people can design it according to their own wishes. The third industrial revolution may even bring about a wave of anti-urbanization. Replacing urbanization will be a decentralized, self-sufficient (rural) lifestyle.

The development of a new generation of factories is the demand of the times. At present, the manufacturing industry has begun to use a large number of advanced technologies such as robots to reduce manpower investment, and high-efficiency production methods will revive the manufacturing industry.

The global manufacturing landscape is changing

Due to the debt crisis and the continued deterioration of the global economic situation, the manufacturing industry in developed countries will suffer the worst blow since the war. The financial crisis has made people realize the importance of manufacturing. The United States has proposed a "re-industrialization" strategy to save the manufacturing industry. It has adopted a policy to attract the return of the manufacturing industry and promote the development of advanced manufacturing technology to seize a new round of manufacturing boom. prepare.

At the same time, Germany, as a world manufacturing powerhouse, has also launched the “Industry 4.0” project, which plans to invest large sums of money to support the research and development and innovation of a new generation of revolutionary technologies in the industrial field. The German government believes that although Germany has a strong machinery and equipment manufacturing industry, China poses a competitive threat to German industry, and the United States is also promoting advanced manufacturing through various programs. Therefore, the purpose of formulating the "Industry 4.0" strategy is to "Ensuring the future of German manufacturing."

Due to the high labor costs in China and the technological upgrading in the manufacturing sector, many manufacturing companies – especially high-end manufacturing and North American-based companies will flow out of China, and many multinational companies turn their attention to pay to save costs. Low-cost Southeast Asia.

Developed countries have introduced strong policies to revive the manufacturing industry. At the same time, developing countries such as Vietnam and India are also working to accelerate economic restructuring and industrial upgrading. The global manufacturing industry is facing new and new changes. Who will be next? It is still difficult to make a conclusion in making a big country.

Manufacturing will not be upgraded soon will be eliminated

The backward manpower has been unable to meet the needs of modern manufacturing. Some developed countries have long started to invest in automation technology to improve productivity. At present, the problem of “big but not strong” in China's manufacturing industry is very prominent. Traditional manufacturing must be transformed and upgraded, otherwise it will be eliminated.

Guo Taiming previously said that by 2016, Shanxi Jincheng Foxconn, which is positioned as an intelligent robot production base, can exceed 50 billion yuan, seeing the first fully automated factories in 5 to 10 years, and eliminating simple repeatability through automation within a few years. Process.

In the past two years, more than 50% of the capital increase in Dongguan has reached billions of yuan for the expansion of enterprises, including expanding production lines, upgrading product development systems, upgrading business operations, and expanding markets. Many factories are increasing capital, buying machines, especially automated, and highly productive machines, all in all walks of life, which represents a renewed competitiveness.

At present, China's manufacturing has continued to enter the "machine substitution" trend. Haier will continue to lay off 10,000 people this year, with 16,000 job cuts last year. In addition, BOE's Beijing 8.5-generation panel factory has also been heavily enabled for robot operation. Not only in the home appliance industry, but also in the field of construction machinery.

Automation technology will drive the new industrial revolution

The transformation and upgrading of the manufacturing industry has become a major trend, and the demand for automation technology will be enlarged. In the past two years, technologies such as robotics, artificial intelligence, 3D printing and new materials are triggering a new industrial revolution that will change the way goods are manufactured and change the landscape of employment.

Robotics: Robots are the product of the times. Today's industrial robots can replace some basic manual labor, such as moving, grabbing, production assembly and so on. With the development of technology, robots in the future will have more wisdom and will replace more human labor.

With the rising labor costs, the encroachment of corporate profits on corporate profits is being staged. The downstream industries that currently occupy 80% of the domestic robot market mainly include automotive, electronic and auto parts. At the same time, other industries are constantly trying to apply robots.

3D printing: A technique of constructing an object by layer-by-layer printing using a bondable material such as powdered metal or plastic based on a digital model file. Future clothes, shoes, bags, jewellery, and so on can be printed by 3D technology.

3D printing technology enables consumers to tailor products to their needs. This method is fast, low cost, environmentally friendly, and beautifully crafted to meet the designer's requirements while saving a lot of material. In recent years, 3D printing has become more and more popular, such as printing food, cars, houses, and aviation supplies. As the printed objects cover a variety of industries, 3D printing has also been labeled with more and more magical labels.

Virtual Manufacturing: The widespread application of virtual manufacturing technology will fundamentally change the current manufacturing model and will have a huge impact on related industries. It can be said that virtual manufacturing technology determines the future of the enterprise and determines whether the manufacturing industry can stand in the competition. Invincible. As an emerging technology, virtual manufacturing technology is an integrated simulation process of product design, manufacturing, testing, operation control, sales and management in the computer virtual environment and equipment real environment. Through human-computer interaction, virtual and real linkage, you can find the optimal solution without consuming actual production resources, thus shortening the cycle, reducing costs, and improving efficiency.

Industrial Interconnection: Through the Industrial Internet, intelligent machines and machines are connected to each other, and intelligent machines are interoperable with human beings. At a deeper level, we can achieve intelligent analysis, which can help people and equipment to be smarter. The decision is the core interest that the Industrial Internet brings to its customers.

Scientific statistics show that the application of industrial Internet can help China's electrical industry, aviation, railway, medical, oil and gas industries to achieve productivity growth of 1%, and will have the potential to save these industries about $ 24 billion in the next 15 years.
