Intelligent Manufacturing Can Create New Opportunities For Textile And Garment Industry.

The clothing industry is actively pforming and upgrading the layout of intelligent manufacturing, and intelligent manufacturing is the direction for the future development of China's manufacturing industry.

China's intelligent manufacturing also includes a series of intelligent products, such as smart fabrics, enterprises in the fabric production process using advanced technology, so that the fabric has warmth, moisture and other functions.

Intelligent manufacturing is the future development direction of China's manufacturing industry.

As an integral part of China's traditional manufacturing industry, the textile and garment industry is exploring the realization of the intelligence of R & D, production processes, terminal products and services under the background of insufficient internal and external needs.

In the view of textile and garment enterprises, promoting "intelligent manufacturing" can create new business opportunities.

Multi-dimensional force intelligent manufacturing

The rapid development of Intelligent Manufacturing in textile and garment industry is mainly manifested in the intelligence of R & D design, the intellectualization of production process, the intellectualization of terminal products and the intellectualization of services.

Recently, reporters learned from Sai Di think tank, with the continuous promotion of information and industrialization integration, for the textile and garment industry, intelligent manufacturing has become the key direction of pformation and upgrading.

Cao Xuejun, director of textile department of the consumer goods industry department of the Ministry of industry and information technology, said in an interview with the China Daily News reporter that the connotation of intelligent manufacturing is rich, including the intellectualization of the workshop and the intellectualization of production technology.

At present, many enterprises are promoting the intellectualization of manufacturing links, which is regarded as the development direction in the future.

"Intelligent manufacturing enterprises in textile and garment enterprises are trying, and there are cases from R & D to end products.

For example, red collar, good bird (002154, stock bar) and other enterprises are promoting intelligent manufacturing, developing personalized customization and so on.

Dai Xiaoxia, deputy director of the consumer goods industry Research Institute of Sai Di think tank, further explained.

It is understood that in the 46 smart manufacturing demonstration sites recently announced by the Ministry of industry and information, the Qingdao red collar group's garment customization project and the Shandong Kangping Na Group Co., Ltd., the cheese dyeing and intelligent factory project, has become a demonstration spot for textile and clothing products. "Kangping"

It is noteworthy that the red collar mainly promotes the intellectualization of R & D design links, while the Shandong Kangping Na Group Co., Ltd.'s cheese dyeing intelligent factory is intellectualized on the production line.

It is understood that the intelligent plant of Kangping Na has built an automatic and continuous production line, which can realize automatic blending of dyes and auxiliaries, automatic pmission of cheese and so on.

In addition, Dai Xiaoxia also said that China's intelligent manufacturing also includes a series of intelligent products, such as smart fabrics, enterprises in the fabric production process using advanced technology, so that the fabric has warmth, moisture and other functions.

And 361 degrees, Lining and other sports brands are also exploring the intellectualization of products, such as children's anti lose shoes launched by 361 degrees, and intelligent running shoes with built-in chips released by Lining.

The starting point of pformation and upgrading

With the downturn in demand both inside and outside, the textile and garment industry is facing pformation and upgrading, and intelligent manufacturing is the inevitable choice.

At present, intelligent manufacturing has become a topic that Chinese textile and garment enterprises can not get around.

Textile and garment industry began to explore intelligent manufacturing, which is indeed related to the current industrial development situation is not optimistic.

From the data released recently, in August, the retail sales of clothing, shoes and hats and knitwear in the above retail enterprises increased by 9.2% over the same period last year, down 1 percentage points.

Retail sales of 50 large retail enterprises in July and August dropped by 2.8% and 4.8% respectively, while exports, clothing, textiles and footwear retail sales fell 7.21%, 2.23% and 10.94%, respectively, in August.

Because of the lack of internal and external demand, the textile and garment industry is in urgent need of pformation and upgrading, and intelligent manufacturing is the inevitable choice.

The report says that after many years of competition, the textile and garment industry has entered the saturation stage. The traditional manufacturing methods have seriously hindered the development of enterprises, and the market requires enterprises to carry out pformation and upgrading.

Fan Youbin, founder and executive chairman of the Costa apparel limited company, told an interview with China Daily News that intelligent manufacturing can reduce manpower, reduce costs, improve efficiency and accuracy. Promoting the intellectualization of manufacturing links is a necessary way for sustainable development of enterprises.

If the enterprise does not pform to intelligent manufacturing, it will be eliminated by the market.

The rising cost of labor in China has prompted the textile and garment industry to pform to intellectualization.

Dai Xiaoxia analysis said: "the clothing industry is a labor-intensive industry, when the cost of labor is rising, it will definitely consider pformation.

Moreover, with the rise of labor costs in China, Southeast Asian countries have stronger competitive advantages than us because of lower labor costs.

In this case, she thought: "we must consider how to upgrade our products, increase the added value of products, pfer some low value-added industries to other countries and leave high value-added products at home."

In Cao Xuejun's view, intelligent manufacturing is the starting point and starting point for the pformation and upgrading of China's textile and garment industry. It is also an important way for textile and garment enterprises to enhance their competitiveness and achieve effective development.

The trend of service is obvious.

The manufacturing industry will change from providing traditional product manufacturing to providing the overall solution of products and services. The boundary between R & D, design, production and manufacture, marketing and after sale will be blurred.

According to the development trend of international manufacturing industry, manufacturing industry is pferring from tangible assets such as hardware, equipment and production resources to intangible assets such as software, services and solutions.

And what intelligent manufacturing ultimately wants is the intellectualization of services.

For example, a clothing home textile enterprise uses cloud computing, big data and other technologies to track and trace the products sold, conduct modeling analysis, optimize customer service, and then improve the design and production of products; or a spinning machine enterprise set up a user oriented remote service platform, interact with the field equipment through cloud software, and provide value-added services such as online monitoring, remote upgrading, fault diagnosis and other services.

At present, intelligent service has become the trend of Intelligent Manufacturing in textile and garment industry.

Ping An Securities said in a research report that in the era of industrial 4, the consumer sector will usher in the era of online and offline integrated pactions.

The boundaries between service consumption and service consumption will become increasingly blurred. The demand for personalization and service consumption will melt the manufacturing and service industries together.

In response, Sai think tank analysis said that the manufacturing industry will change from providing traditional product manufacturing to providing the overall solution of products and services, and the boundary between R & D, design, production and manufacture, marketing and after sale will be blurred.

In Fan Youbin's view, intelligent manufacturing is based on systematization, data and intelligence, which requires information, system, manufacturing, logistics and after-sales service. It can be said to serve the users and realize the industrial and commercial integration of the products.

He hopes that he will eventually become a provider of clothing intelligent manufacturing solutions integrating design, production and sales.

In this process, there are some new formats and business models in the traditional textile and garment industry.

For example, the United States announced that the fund-raising of 9 billion yuan, of which 2 billion 500 million yuan was used to build the "intelligent manufacturing" industry supply chain platform.

Although service intelligence has become the focus of the future reform of traditional textile enterprises, in Cao Xuejun's view, every enterprise should identify its own characteristics in the process of developing intelligent manufacturing, and choose according to its own situation.

Intelligent manufacturing is a means, not a goal.

Our goal is to enhance the competitiveness of enterprises and improve efficiency.

Dai Xiaoxia added to one.

Enterprises, as long as we do a certain part of the intelligence is enough.

Because, speaking from the enterprise itself, the integrated pformation of intelligent manufacturing is not easy to achieve, and the cost is very high.
