"Everyone, intelligent manufacturing is a system, not a simple robot production line."
At this time, Xu Zhenming opened his notebook and introduced the theory he had prepared.
According to his theory, the entire product chain should be intelligent from the beginning of design to the product offline.
For example, Wang Guoyou is designing a 36-needle computerized embroidery machine.
The first step is to use software simulation to determine the performance of this product; secondly, the data of the 36-pin computer embroidery machine is transmitted to the production department through the network, and the product order is automatically generated through the software; the order is broken down and sent to the large riveting base and The manufacturing base began to produce parts.
The large riveting base uses CNC plasma or future CNC laser cutting machines to automatically unload materials; palletizing robots automatically sort these cut materials, unqualified materials are treated as waste, and qualified materials are transported by the handling robot to the automatic group On the production line.
The automatic assembly line uses a palletizing robot to place various workpieces, and the welding robot spot-welds riveting weldments, which are transferred to the automatic welding production line along with the conveyor belt.Then, the welding robot of the automatic welding production line automatically welds the riveted parts, and the automatic grinding robot starts to polish the welding seam.
……Wait and so on, etc., all production processes are completed by industrial robots.
The production process is computer-assisted. The 36-needle computerized embroidery machine, from the beginning of the design to the finished product, is almost automatically produced without a few manual interventions.
This is the concept of Smart Manufacturing 1.0!
The Germans have begun to figure out a set of theories and have begun to apply them in some industries.For example, their fish factory can basically realize unmanned production now.
"Xu Dong, if our group company can realize the technology of intelligent manufacturing 1.0, what will our workers do?" After hearing Xu Zhenming's introduction, Chen Dengliang looked at Xu Zhenming in panic.
Chen Dengliang once participated in the research and development of automobile automatic stamping production line and knew that the intelligent manufacturing 1.0 method mentioned by Xu Zhenming was possible.By then, the large riveting and welding base he manages probably won't have a few workers.
"Workers? Workers have to provide robots with technical information, so that robots can learn various human technologies."
"Yes! Mr. Rui makes sense. The intelligent manufacturing 1.0 system is not yet mature, and many jobs are inseparable from workers."
"For example, in the assembly of precision equipment, robots are definitely not as good as our old eighth-level fitter technicians."
In the conference room, the young middle-level cadres all stood up to express their views and answered Chen Dengliang's questions for Xu Zhenming.
And they didn't know that after twenty years, the German car engine factories hardly needed workers.Some companies in Germany will solve the problem of population employment in the future, and will allocate a small number of workers to do counseling work.
Of course, it will take at least 20 years for Yiming Group to achieve that.The theory of intelligent manufacturing will also be upgraded to version 4.0.
"Everyone, we have been engaged in industrial robots for several years. Because of the limitations of computer technology, industrial robots could only reach version 1.0 or 1.5."
"Now we have developed the Suzaku Core I chip, which is fully capable of improving the various capabilities of industrial robots. Therefore, we are now proposing the concept of intelligent manufacturing 1.0 is just right."
At this time, Xu Zhenming continued.
He did not answer Chen Dengliang’s question, but believed that the most important thing for the machinery manufacturing department of Yiming Group Company is to improve the overall quality of the workers and improve the application level of intelligent equipment in the workshop.
Only in this way can the management concept of Intelligent Manufacturing 1.0 be implemented smoothly.
"I agree with Xu Dong's opinion. The work we have to do now is to improve the industrial robot to the level of five-axis linkage, and the next step is six-axis linkage. No matter when, the accuracy of the mechanical mechanism is the most important." At that time, Ma Jimin raised his hand to speak and put forward his own point of view.
He believes that the theory of intelligent manufacturing 1.0, the concept of industrial robot 2.0 and other theoretical knowledge should be based on the improvement of mechanical technology.Without basic mechanical technology, the mechanical repeatability of industrial robots is unreliable. The concepts of Industrial Robot 2.0 and Intelligent Industry 1.0 are empty words.
These words are in line with the current and future development trends of China.
Huaguo's software technology has always been ahead of hardware technology.Many universities are also studying industrial robots. The robot's control software, algorithms, data interface and processing are all right.
But these industrial robots' transmission systems, sensors, parts and components of automated execution units, etc., are all purchased from abroad.The research institutes in our country are actually just masons who build blocks of materials that have been prepared by others to make a building.
Isn't this a castle in the sky?
This is also one of the main reasons why Xu Zhenming has not dared to give up basic machinery manufacturing technology research.The teammates are unreliable, so Yiming Group can only rely on itself.
"Therefore, the tasks of our leaders here are very heavy. We must apply industrial robot technology on a large scale from now on. We will test our industrial robots ourselves and improve the technology of industrial robots to version 2.0."
Xu Zhenming finally summarized his speech and put forward requirements for all the leaders present.
For example, in Chen Dengliang's large riveting and welding base, the welding process needs to be optimized, and all the processes that can be replaced by welding robots are completed by welding robots.
Not only that, but also processes such as workpiece grinding, workpiece inspection and sorting, workpiece welding seam flaw detection, and complex curved workpiece welding must begin to try to replace labor with industrial robots.
For example, the machining workshop of a large manufacturing base should begin to study how to use palletizing robots and handling robots to replace machine tools.
Only by fully using the current industrial robots can everyone find out the various defects of the industrial robots of Yiming Group.
As soon as these words were finished, the meeting room was silent and silent.
Xu Zhenming's request was a bit high, and everyone was lost in thought.Everyone is not sure that they can meet the high standards of the boss, how dare to talk nonsense?
"What's so scary? Ah? Are you young people not as good as me? I think Xu Dong's request is reasonable. We don't eat fat by one bite, and realize Xu Dong's plan step by step. Difficulty?"
At this time, Ma Jimin, who presided over the meeting, knocked on the conference table, knocking everyone's heads up.
Taking this opportunity, he began to arrange R&D tasks for projects such as CNC laser computer cutting machine, five-axis linkage CNC machine tool, HT0500-J gray iron alloy material, and 36 needle computerized embroidery machine.
According to his mantra, "We need to implement the industrial robot 2.0 project and the intelligent manufacturing 1.0 project, but we need to implement more traditional new projects, and we need to invest more funds to develop it."
This old man is very bad, take this opportunity to emphasize the importance of traditional basic mechanical technology.
Xu Zhenming did not dismantle Ma Jimin's selfishness, and assigned the task of intelligent transformation of the production line to Ma Jimin, and the task of upgrading industrial robots to the technical department.
He then went to the communication electronics laboratory to stay in control to control the development progress of the Core generation PDA.
This new product, which puts all Xu Zhenming's hopes on, will be released at the end of May, but there can be no more surprises.
