As smart manufacturing becomes a key force reshaping the competitive landscape of industries, how to deeply implement the strategy of strengthening the manufacturing sector and win the transformation battle is a question every enterprise must consider.

On July 19, 2022, Alps System Integration (Dalian) Co., Ltd. (referred to as "ALSI") hosted a unique smart manufacturing sharing session at the Dalian Tengfei Software Park. Representatives from the Dalian CIO Association, Dalian Shengdao Group Co., Ltd., TDK Dalian Electronics Co., Ltd., Dalian Dalicap Technology Co., Ltd., Dalian Zhaohe Environmental Technology Co., Ltd., Dalian Spindle Environmental Equipment Co., Ltd., Mabuchi Motor Dalian Co., Ltd., Star Precision (Dalian) Co., Ltd., China Hualu Panasonic Electronics Co., Ltd., and other upstream and downstream manufacturing enterprises gathered together to explore new opportunities for enterprise development in the context of smart manufacturing.

Gathering Wisdom at Tengfei: Insights into the New Future of Smart Manufacturing

The meeting specially invited experts from the China Electronics Standardization Institute to provide an in-depth interpretation of the smart manufacturing maturity model, which greatly helps manufacturing enterprises, smart manufacturing solution providers, and third parties in identifying capability gaps, planning solutions, and driving improvements in smart manufacturing capabilities.

The experts pointed out that China's smart manufacturing has made significant progress so far, with leading enterprises achieving remarkable results in intelligence, but most enterprises are still in the early stages of intelligent transformation. System integration and data interconnection remain key areas for improving maturity. With the introduction of national policies to promote high-quality development of small and medium-sized enterprises and increased support, manufacturing enterprises should not only focus on the "production and manufacturing" link but also pursue a "specialized, refined, distinctive, and innovative" development path. Through the experts' sharing, participating enterprises gained a deeper understanding of the current state and trends of smart manufacturing, providing reference and inspiration for their own intelligent development.

Salon Dialogue: Jointly Promoting the Construction of an Intelligent Manufacturing Ecosystem

This smart manufacturing sharing session not only built a bridge for communication between enterprises across the value chain but also brought a feast of digital and intelligent innovation and development. On-site guests discussed topics related to "smart manufacturing" from new perspectives and multiple dimensions, including industry trends, industrial development, and enterprise needs.

ALSI Director Zhang Xiaohui shared insights on the challenges of smart manufacturing development for enterprises. The continuous development of the smart manufacturing industry has gradually widened the gap in the level of intelligence among manufacturing enterprises. All types of enterprises are gearing up, stepping up their layouts, and trying to seize the high ground of development. However, issues such as insufficient innovation investment and low energy efficiency are constraining the intelligent transformation and upgrading of enterprises.

For many years, ALSI has been deeply involved in the smart manufacturing field, innovating and developing intelligent system solutions to reduce transformation costs for thousands of factories nationwide. At the same time, ALSI has co-founded the Dalian Smart Manufacturing Industry Innovation Alliance with the Qixianhui Platform and multiple enterprises, leveraging regional resources and talent advantages to promote the construction of the smart manufacturing ecosystem and drive the intelligent upgrading of enterprises.

On that day, the attendees visited ALSI's office and gained an in-depth understanding of its industrial IoT solutions and APS system. As a manufacturing system solution provider, ALSI leverages over 30 years of technical accumulation and extensive on-site service experience to build an efficient and integrated information exchange platform, enabling intelligent equipment management and smart production scheduling, solving the problem of low-efficiency production on the shop floor, and promoting the construction of smart factories. In the future, ALSI will continue to join forces with various parties to help enterprises enhance their level of intelligence, establish competitive advantages, and promote the innovative development of the intelligent manufacturing industry.
