In recent years, Changshu City has insisted on focusing on intelligent transformation and digital transformation, and has made every effort to create a new highland for “Suzhou Intelligent Manufacturing”. What achievements and experiences has Changshu gained in the process of smart transformation to digital transformation?
In the wave of “intelligent transformation to digital transformation”, Jiangsu Dingxin Printing and Dyeing Co., Ltd. bravely stands at the forefront and strives to be a trendsetter, applying advanced technologies such as big data and the Internet of Things, and integrating with ERP systems The company produces and sells data, continuously increases equipment upgrading and transformation, and combines the actual needs of the company with data to empower the high-quality development of the company.
In the past three years, the company has invested approximately 10 million yuan every yearIntelligent transformation and digital transformation,Monthly production capacity increased by 10%.
Next to each machine in Dingxin Printing and Dyeing, there is an ERP system collection terminal. Every time a worker starts a process, he scans the project card on the collection terminal. QR code.
“I can check the processing technology, production progress and other information of the corresponding products while sitting in front of the computer in the office, and provide real-time feedback to customers.” said Ling Yu, assistant of the business department of Jiangsu Dingxin Printing and Dyeing Co., Ltd. , timely and accurate feedback brings the company closer to its customers, and she no longer needs to travel to various workshops every day to collect information.
The functions of the ERP system are much more than that. Currently, all production and sales processes of Dingxin Printing and Dyeing are approved and dispatched within the ERP system.
Zhou Hui, Chief of the Management Section of Jiangsu Dingxin Printing and Dyeing Co., Ltd.: After a series of data such as production and sales are integrated into this system, we can directly retrieve the data and find out a specific information conveniently and clearly. Which production stage the order is currently in improves management efficiency and optimizes business processes. The ERP system comprehensively records all business information and generated data. After the system analyzes all data, it transforms it into auxiliary information for the decision-making layer, management layer, and operation layer, which changes management problems such as unfounded decisions and head-scratching decisions.
Walking into the shaping workshop, next to 6 direct-fired shaping machines more than 40 meters long, 3 people The worker controls the overfeeding control system through the control panel at the head of the machine, and two workers replace the shaped raw material cloth at the tail of the machine.
“The entire workshop originally required 30 workers, but now only requires 15 workers, thanks to these four direct-fired setting machines.” Jiangsu Dingxin Printing and Dyeing Co., Ltd. finishing Keke Chief Yin Xianli said with emotion that last year, the company invested tens of millions of yuan to purchase these four direct-fired setting machines, which saved manpower, alleviated labor difficulties, and also improved efficiency, reduced energy consumption and improved quality. of stability.
According to reports, the direct-fired setting machine has increased the production rate from the previous 20 yards to 25 today. To 32 yards, the production rate of a small number of cloth types has increased by 50%, the total efficiency has increased by about 30%, and the energy consumption per ton of cloth production has reduced by about 50 cubic meters of natural gas compared with before. “The extra 50 to 100 tons of production per month allows us to receive more orders.” Yin Xianli said.
The overfeed control system uses intelligent image technology to monitor the weft density of the fabric on the incoming side during the setting process. When the weft density of the fabric cannot reach the set value, it will automatically adjust in real time. The weft density reaches the set state, which changes the previous unstable situation of manual detection and improves the one-time success rate.
Yang Jilie, general manager of Jiangsu Dingxin Printing and Dyeing Co., Ltd.: The intelligent construction of the printing and dyeing industry is different from the clothing, automobile and other industries, and there are no successful practices to learn from. We have also stepped on thunder. We have purchased a robot loading and unloading machine, which cost a lot of money. However, during actual use, we found that the equipment was slow and inefficient. We also purchased an automatic cloth inspection machine, which is said to be Israeli military technology, but the equipment It can only find problems but not solve them, and it is not practical enough.
There have been many pitfalls in transformation, but none of this can stop Yang Jilie’s determination to continue on the road of “intelligent transformation and digital transformation”. On June 13, Jiangsu Dingxin Printing and Dyeing Co., Ltd. and Foshan Jiyan Zhilian Technology Co., Ltd. signed a strategic cooperation agreement. Jiyan Zhilian will fully meet the personalized needs of Dingxin Printing and Dyeing, and comprehensively assist Dingxin Printing and Dyeing in research and development, production, management, service and other enterprises. The intelligent transformation of the entire digitalization process, with “digital transformation” as the core, empowers Dingxin Printing and Dyeing to achieve intelligent manufacturing throughout the entire industry chain.
Yang Jilie, general manager of Jiangsu Dingxin Printing and Dyeing Co., Ltd.: In this year’s intelligent construction, we plan to solve a digital production problem. We will collect production information through the ERP system and establish a digital system in the operation center. The large screen, starting from placing an order, all aspects of material preparation, production, sales, shipping and energy consumption are all displayed on the large screen.�Reflected immediately, which is conducive to efficient organization and control of production. Secondly, we should do something about the whole factory logistics (upstream and downstream processes) and automatic warehousing to improve production efficiency and reduce labor employment.
▲ Today’s new factory
More than twenty years later , Dingxin Printing and Dyeing has firmly walked on the road of “intelligent transformation and digital transformation”, setting a new benchmark for transformation and upgrading of printing and dyeing enterprises.
