At the "11th China Intelligent Manufacturing Summit Forum" held on July 28, 2022, national intelligent manufacturing experts and academicians of the Chinese Academy of Engineering conducted an in-depth interpretation of the "Top 10 Hotspots in China's Manufacturing Industry in 2022". Among them, the digital economy, decentralization, and green transformation became industry buzzwords this year. How to improve the core competitiveness of the manufacturing industry and better achieve lean production has become a core concern for the entire industry. During the conference, the development of the manufacturing industry in the first half of 2022 was analyzed. Facing factors such as price fluctuations, disrupted flow of people and goods, and labor shortages, the challenges for manufacturing were extremely severe. Therefore, lean production has become the key to corporate profitability. In the second half of 2022, lean production will be the core pursuit direction of the manufacturing industry.

"The 11th China Intelligent Manufacturing Summit Forum" Points Out the Implementation Ideas for Lean Production

In the just-concluded "11th China Intelligent Manufacturing Summit Forum", the top ten hotspots mainly analyzed aspects such as "The state attaches great importance to enhancing the core competitiveness of manufacturing", "Challenges faced by manufacturing development", and "Under the dual-carbon goal, enterprises urgently need 'green transformation'". At the same time, it further emphasized the importance of "The digital economy boom injects vitality into manufacturing development", which is also the key for manufacturing enterprises to achieve lean production.

The issue mentioned in the conference, "Difficult to recruit and retain, manufacturing labor shortage intensifies", focuses on solving the "people" problem, and the goal of lean production is exactly inseparable from "people". For thirty years, ALSI (Alps System Integration (Dalian) Co., Ltd.) has deeply studied the feasibility of lean production for manufacturing enterprises. Based on technology, it went into frontline workshops to find breakthroughs in lean production, and finally launched the ALSI Smart Production Equipment Management Solution, which is more suitable for traditional domestic enterprises to achieve lean production.

Looking at the challenges that manufacturing enterprises will face in the second half of 2022, lean production will become the general trend. In terms of "labor shortage", by using the equipment management closed-loop developed by ALSI to achieve technological upgrades, factories can replace manual production with intelligent equipment, greatly improving production efficiency, and lean production is just around the corner. In terms of "green transformation", ALSI helps traditional enterprises transform into intelligent ones, keeping pace with Industry 4.0. As the "digital economy boom" approaches, ALSI uses more forward-looking and cutting-edge technologies to build an equipment status monitoring system, from monitoring equipment to generating visual reports, allowing managers to have detailed control of workshop production, and ultimately achieving the goal of lean production. As the winner of "2021 China's Top Intelligent Manufacturing Excellent Products and Excellent Suppliers", it holds a leading position both in technology and industry positioning, making it a more capable and trustworthy provider of smart production equipment management solutions in the industry.
