Create flexible assembly lines for non-standard intelligent manufacturing equipment, build an intelligent analysis and diagnosis platform for industrial big data of automobile production lines...Guangzhou MINO Equipment Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "MINO Equipment") continues to promote digital transformation and intelligent equipment transformation and upgrading, gradually realize the implementation of digital factory virtual manufacturing and industrial Internet of Things big data applications, and grow into a national-level specialized and innovative "little giant" enterprise.
"Our goal is to promote the transformation and upgrading of manufacturing to high-end manufacturing with the concept of digital manufacturing, and to achieve sustainable development of manufacturing companies by saving energy, reducing investment and improving efficiency." Yao Weibing, chairman and CEO of Mingluo Equipment, told reporters that in recent years, the company has focused on its core business, strengthened independent innovation, built a smart manufacturing standardization system and industrial Internet platform, and provided smart manufacturing solutions for the industrial field. Its business has covered more than a dozen countries.
Siemens (China) Co., Ltd. Digital Industries Group is a partner of MINO Equipment. Xia Wei, deputy general manager of the company's automotive industry management department, said that after Siemens and MINO Equipment started strategic cooperation, they applied intelligent manufacturing technology to build a number of "lighthouse factories" overseas to achieve the goal of reducing costs and increasing efficiency.
Based on productization and standardization, Mingluo Equipment relies on digital technology and information management systems to promote changes in production methods and realize flexible and intelligent production. In the production workshop designed by Mingluo Equipment, the entire production line is regarded as a sophisticated hierarchical system. The production line can be decomposed into several stations, each of which is further divided into multiple systems, each system is composed of several devices, and the equipment is composed of multiple components. "The company has established clear standards for every link of the production line. No matter what specifications of parts or functions the customer needs, they can be assembled quickly like building blocks." Lei Ming, executive president of Mingluo Equipment, said that by assembling the production line in the way of building blocks, modules can be added or subtracted from the original production line at any time to adapt to new production requirements, which not only reduces the cost of redesigning the production line, but also greatly improves the efficiency of manufacturers. For example, through the automated production line built by Mingluo Equipment, it takes only 42 seconds to produce a car body at the fastest, and different models can be produced. The general one to two years of automobile production line construction cycle can be compressed to 4 and a half months.
Mingluo Equipment is well aware that technological innovation is the key driving force for development. On the basis of continuously improving the intelligent manufacturing system, the company independently developed the industrial Internet of Things platform MISP to build full life cycle service management for intelligent manufacturing production lines. The platform establishes a data analysis model, verifies the process rhythm in the digital virtual design stage, performs data analysis on the actual production line, optimizes the design plan for different stages, and realizes efficient management of operation and maintenance, process, quality, etc. At present, the platform has connected more than 200 intelligent production lines and 40,000 equipment worldwide. Through real-time monitoring and diagnostic analysis, it has greatly reduced the investment waste of traditional manufacturing companies and reduced the overall manufacturing costs, creating a cumulative value of more than 10 billion yuan for customers.
In response to the pain points of some small and medium-sized enterprises such as fragmented production processes and blocked production data, Mingluo Equipment has also developed management tools such as "Non-standard Butler" and "Drawing Cloud" to help small and medium-sized enterprises upload their production capacity data to the cloud, thereby reducing their production costs.
The research and development and application of new technologies and new achievements demonstrate the vitality of MINO Equipment's innovative development. By providing solutions such as building block-type intelligent production lines, modular intelligent products, and industrial Internet big data services, MINO Equipment helps customers reduce equipment investment and manufacturing costs by an average of about 20%. As of the end of June this year, MINO Equipment has more than 1,000 independent intellectual property rights.
"The key technologies must be firmly in our own hands. The company will continue to develop digital manufacturing technology and industrial Internet technology, and help the traditional manufacturing industry achieve high-quality development with the development concepts of automation, standardization, leanness, flexibility, digitization, intelligence and greening."
