Recently, the two-day 2018 (fourth) Intelligent Manufacturing International Forum was held in Wuhan. As one of the core forums of the 19th China International Mechanical and Electrical Products Expo, it is sponsored by the Ministry of Commerce, the People’s Government of Hubei Province, and the People’s Government of Wuhan City, and jointly hosted and supported by more than a dozen industry associations, alliances, and business leaders.
More than 1,500 guests from nearly 20 provinces and cities across the country attended the conference, and more than 6,000 people watched the live broadcast of the forum. The content of the forum involves the construction of smart factories, smart equipment, industrial big data, and the Internet of Things.
Zebra Technology was invited to the scene by e-works Digital Enterprise Network. Focusing on the theme of “Intelligent Transformation of China’s Manufacturing Industry, Where is the Way?”, to express opinions on the promotion of digital and intelligent transformation of the majority of manufacturing enterprises, and to bring practical and applicable manufacturing solutions.
Zebra helps you build the factory of the future and help enterprises realize intelligent transformation
In 2018, the development of my country’s manufacturing industry is facing various challenges, and it is urgent to improve independent innovation capabilities. Promoting intelligent manufacturing and realizing digital transformation have become the only way for manufacturing companies to improve their profitability, establish differentiated competitive advantages, and respond to international competition.
Academician Li Peigen of the Chinese Academy of Engineering believes that enabling technologies (Internet of Things, smart machines, big data, industrial Internet platforms, etc.) are the foundation of enterprise smart manufacturing, and more resources should be invested in the development of enabling technologies. More enabling products are applied to the digital transformation of enterprises.
Technology is pushing the manufacturing industry towards an era of more visualization and automation of operations. Zebra technology can help you gain the advantages of smart factory technology-providing you with innovative hardware, software, and applicable manufacturing in the field of smart manufacturing Industry solutions.
Zebra Technology possesses the intelligent technology of enterprise assets to help enterprises lead the frontier intelligence, which helps to manage the entire supply chain and meet the increasing operational needs of enterprises. Zebra technology can help companies build smarter factories of the future, enable companies to smoothly achieve digital upgrades in business and management, and bring new ideas to promote the intelligent transformation of companies.
Many heads of manufacturing companies who participated in the forum gathered in front of the Zebra Technology booth to learn more about Zebra Technology’s complete product collection and solution applications, and consulted on the needs of corporate management.
In the Smart Equipment and Smart Factory sub-venue of this forum, Cui Long, Business Development Manager of Zebra Technology Greater China Region, gave a keynote speech on “ZEBRA Helps Smart Manufacturing”, starting from Zebra Technology’s smart manufacturing application case, right The status and trends of intelligent manufacturing have been analyzed from multiple angles, and they have provided references for whether enterprises should carry out intelligent transformation, how to carry out intelligent transformation, and what misunderstandings should be avoided in intelligent transformation, and put forward corresponding plan suggestions.
Smart factory, seamless operation
The manufacturing industry is ushering in the wave of the fourth industrial revolution: a profound change driven by technology. With the help of technology, you can manage a huge manufacturing plant with only a tablet device. Zebra technology can help you ensure that your plant keeps up with the pace of technological change and makes logistics more flexible and dynamic.
According to the report of Zebra Technology’s “2017 Asia Pacific Manufacturing Vision Survey”, the number of fully interconnected factories is expected to double, and more than one-third of the respondents are expected to have this capability by 2022. Therefore, the comprehensive visibility of business operations in the entire supply chain provided by Zebra Technology is particularly important.
In the manufacturing scenario, whether it is a factory, warehouse or on-site operation, the visibility of Zebra Technology’s enterprise asset intelligence technology is applied to perception, analysis, and action business to gain insights, perform real-time data and analysis, and give Employees provide real-time support and always maintain efficient operation management-with less time and cost.
Zebra Technology’s manufacturing solutions include: components of products, software and services. By adapting to hardware in different scenarios-mobile data terminals, tablet devices, scanners, printers, RFID readers, and with Zebra technology’s support for industrial Ethernet protocols-realizing the true scanning and printing operations on the production line Integration allows Zebra’s barcode collectors and printers to be seamlessly connected to the factory’s Ethernet, such as Siemens and Rockwell’s industrial Ethernet protocols.
Zebra Technology has a complete software partner system, develops innovative software applications for equipment and system collaboration, and develops customized software to meet the different needs of enterprises.
