Clothing Enterprises "Machine Substitution" Provincial Labor Equipment Becomes The Choice

At present, with the rising cost of raw materials and labor, and the emergence of competitors from Southeast Asia and other countries, China's clothing industry is facing unprecedented difficulties.

In recent years, intensified labor shortage has made enterprises generally realize that past advantages have been unable to support their own development and turn to technology dividends, forcing domestic garment enterprises to "machine substitutions".

Now, there are many.

Enterprises have gradually realized the importance of technological innovation. The survey shows that 82% garment enterprises have demand for machine replacement, and 44.1% of enterprises will enhance product research and development and innovation.

At the same time, increasing the added value and technical content of products has been put ahead of schedule in advance by many enterprises.

Experts say that machine substitution is an inevitable phenomenon after China's garment industry has developed to a certain stage.

Compared with the previous equipment, efficiency, energy saving and labor saving are the commonalities of these devices.

According to China

According to the latest data released, 12 million 920 thousand sewing machines were produced in China's sewing machine industry in 2013. The proportion of mechanical and electrical integration, high efficiency and energy saving sewing machines accounted for 10% of total industrial sewing machines, up from 49% in 2009.

The proportion of mechatronics products, such as flat, bag and stretch, increased from 15% in 2009 to 45% at present.

Among them, the computer sewing machine in 2013 total output of up to 2 million 700 thousand units, an increase of 80% over the same period, for the first time exceeded the production of mechanical ordinary sewing machine.

The new development pattern of the industry gradually shows that automation and intelligent machinery have become hot spots for enterprises to choose.

The sewing machine can automatically complete the operation of all the nail production lines and basically realize the unmanned operation. The wire cutting machine is also an efficient alternative to manual machines, which is 8 times higher than the manual cutting line, and can complete 2~8 personal work at the same time. The price of the sewing machine is only 2000~3000 yuan. The three dimensional ironing machine shortens the auxiliary time of ironing, improves the production efficiency, and generally improves the production efficiency of 30%~35%. The flexible manufacturing system increases the flow of clothing or semi finished products through the real-time monitoring of the garment sewing process, and reduces the inventory to the maximum extent. In the past, a staple button procedure for a garment had to be completed by 4 workers. Now, after using the "intelligence" to fasten the machine, one person is responsible for controlling the computer.

It is particularly noteworthy that garments with different styles, colors and sizes can be operated simultaneously on a production line, adapting to the needs of garment production of many small and multi varieties enterprises at present, which greatly improves the quick reaction capability of enterprises.

It can be seen that the continuous progress of new technologies and products of intelligent and provincial labor has changed the way of operation of the traditional garment industry unprecedentedly, and the pformation and upgrading of the garment industry really usher in the production mode of the digital age.

Informatization drives industrialization

Those who get information get the world.

Facing the rapidly changing global market, the rapid response ability of garment industry has become the yardstick for measuring the competitiveness of enterprises, and the core of rapid response is information technology.

In the field of production technology, we should popularize CAD and CAM systems, and develop specialized software such as online customization, intelligent design and discharge system, single piece automatic cutting, order processing and so on.

Facts show that the efficiency of using computer plate making is 2.7 times that of manual plate making. The computer code efficiency is 5~6 times that of manual setting, and computer discharging efficiency is 10 times of manual discharging.

Internet of things technology

An important aspect of information technology.

RFID technology has revolutionized the product production, inventory, logistics distribution and product sales management mode.

Gap company used RFID technology in the whole supply chain process very early.

According to statistics from relevant departments, Gap company has increased sales by 20% since its application of RFID technology, increased its inventory accuracy by 30%, reduced the cost of leftover goods by 90%, increased the inventory efficiency by 20 times, and reduced the sales cost of stores by 10%.

The informatization of garment product process will drive the modernization of the production process, marketing process and management process of enterprises, effectively utilize the information platform and e-commerce platform of enterprises, and strengthen the consulting service of enterprise informatization, so as to achieve the optimal allocation of resources and adapt to the new situation of global competition.

Transformation and upgrading by machine substitution

At present, the structure level of Chinese clothing is not high, the quality of garment industry structure is relatively low, and there is no vertical industry chain that integrates R & D, design, manufacture and sales, and there is no horizontal industry chain between regional development. The design and production links of surface and accessories are relatively weak. Garment industry urgently needs technological innovation and design ability, so as to enhance the core competitiveness of enterprise independent brand.

The replacement of machines will enhance the efficiency and quality of products, make up for the difficulty of recruitment and low efficiency, and will undoubtedly promote pformation and upgrading of downstream garment equipment industry.

Li Yinglin, associate professor of textile School of Tianjin University of Technology, believes that under the overall downturn of the industry, "machine substitution" has provided opportunities for garment equipment enterprises.

Garment equipment enterprises should seize this opportunity.

In his view, first of all, independent innovation and greater research and development are the basic guarantee for enhancing the core competitiveness of the industry, and also the most important.

After years of development, garment equipment enterprises in China have made some progress.

For example, the automation of cutting and ironing is basically mature. With the gradual introduction of sewing, sewing and template sewing systems, sewing automation has also taken a big step forward.

Related enterprises should continue to rely on independent innovation, readjust the industrial structure, pform from volume expansion to qualitative improvement, and truly realize the pformation of growth mode.

Secondly, "

"Higher requirements for garment factories in small batch, multi batch, multi style production mode, and time to market are put forward.

As a service garment industry, garment equipment enterprises should also follow the fast and high quality service concept to help enterprises shorten the time of product listing, expand product lines and reduce costs.

Finally, about 80% of the garment enterprises in China are small and medium-sized enterprises, and funds, talents, especially technological innovation and other problems have been plaguing the development of enterprises. They are eager to have professional services such as clothing design and other public service platform to solve these problems.

At present, there are quite a number of professional websites of information based clothing in China. However, the construction of public service platform centered on providing online technology services is still in its infancy.

Therefore, the construction of Internet based technology oriented public service platform for small and medium-sized garment enterprises will help to integrate social resources, provide SMEs with multi-media services such as products, process design, technology, equipment planning, marketing technical support, information consultation and so on.

At present, industrial robots have been widely used in automotive and automotive parts manufacturing, metal products industry, electrical and electronic industry, rubber and plastics industry, food industry, pharmaceutical industry, glass and ceramic industry, and many other fields.

According to incomplete statistics, since 2014, a total of 7 listed companies have been distributing the industrial robot market through mergers and acquisitions or direct investment.

Perhaps in the near future, what you see in the clothing factory is not the equipment, but the robots one by one.
