Chongqing, January 20 (Xinhua) -- At the fifth session of the Fifth People's Congress of Chongqing held here, the 2022 Chongqing Municipal Government Work Report revealed the report card of Chongqing's industrial transformation and upgrading. Through the implementation of pillar industry quality improvement projects, strategic emerging industry cluster development projects, industrial chain supply chain modernization level improvement projects and manufacturing intelligent empowerment projects, Chongqing, an old industrial base with all 31 manufacturing categories, is accelerating the promotion of industrial upgrading to high-end, intelligent and green.
The report shows that Chongqing's two pillar industries - automobiles and electronics have maintained double-digit growth. Among them, the automobile industry achieved the double improvement of "vehicle + parts", with an increase in added value of 12.6%; the electronic information industry accelerated the replenishment of chains, and the added value increased by 17.3%.
"The automotive industry is accelerating its transformation to electrification and intelligence, and smart factories are used to manufacture smart cars." Ma Jianchang, deputy to the Chongqing Municipal People's Congress and president of Xiaokang Group, introduced to the China News Network reporter that a high-end smart car that Xiaokang Group has opened for pre-sale is produced in the Group's Jinkang New Energy Xilis Liangjiang Intelligent Factory. The plant has more than 1,000 intelligent robots, realizing 100% automation of key processes and 100% full-time online detection.

Ma Jianchang analyzed that the intelligence of smart factories is mainly reflected in three aspects, one is on the basis of digital factories, the use of Internet of Things technology and monitoring technology to strengthen information management services, set the initial intelligent means and intelligent systems and other emerging technologies in one, to build efficient, energy-saving, green, environmentally friendly, comfortable humanized factories; second, high-flexibility production greatly reduces labor intensity, part of the fine work by manual repair and inspection, to achieve better intelligent production of human-machine interaction; the third is through information management control, The intelligent logistics center can meet the storage and transportation of auto parts, and the standardized logistics channel also improves the efficiency of material distribution. "In addition to focusing on the main business, attracting talents, and increasing research and development, the manufacturing industry should achieve transformation and upgrading, high-quality development, and also pay attention to cross-border integration and strong chain replenishment." Taking the development of high-end new energy vehicles as an example, we must build a matching supply chain and promote the organic linkage of the industrial chain, supply chain and innovation chain. ”
Five enterprises, including Jinkang New Energy under Xiaokang Group, will become the "lighthouse factory" unveiling unit announced by the Chongqing Municipal Commission of Economy and Information Technology in 2021, leading the development direction of Chongqing smart factory. The reporter walked into another "lighthouse factory" to unveil the unit Sany Heavy Machinery (Chongqing) and saw that the current 24 production lines of the Sany (Chongqing) Intelligent Equipment Factory have all been completed and have been put into production. Zhang Xiaodong, supervisor of the comprehensive management department of Sany Heavy Machinery (Chongqing), introduced that the plant's digital, intelligent and automated productivity of the whole line is close to 80%, and the total assembly line can be offline a large excavator in 17.3 minutes, with an annual output of 28,800 excavators and an annual output value of more than 10 billion yuan. By the end of 2021, the plant has produced a total of 18,415 excavators, achieving an output value of 7 billion yuan.
In addition to the "lighthouse factory" unveiling units, digital workshops and smart factory demonstration projects have also played a significant "benchmarking role" in driving the transformation and upgrading of Chongqing's manufacturing industry. "The manufacturing industry is entering the digital production phase. For example, in the past, it was manually used to identify product quality, and the digital production stage was judged by equipment and instruments. Gathering more digital production workshops is conducive to Improving Production Efficiency and Improving Product Quality in Chongqing's manufacturing industry. Zhong Yu, a deputy to the Chongqing Municipal People's Congress and the on-site technical director of Chongqing Huashidan Machinery Manufacturing Co., Ltd., told the China News Network reporter.
Wang Yifei, deputy director of the Intelligent Department of the Chongqing Municipal Commission of Economy and Information Technology, said that Chongqing has identified 105 smart factories and 574 digital workshops. According to estimates, the production efficiency of Chongqing's digital workshop and smart factory demonstration project has increased by an average of 59.8%. In addition, in order to accelerate the digital transformation, Chongqing has promoted the implementation of a total of 4,075 intelligent transformation projects, directly driving industrial investment of more than 60 billion yuan; the output value of more than 1,500 regulated enterprises implementing intelligent transformation in Chongqing has increased by an average of 46.8%, contributing more than 60% to the city's industrial output value.
"The main value of intelligent manufacturing is to help enterprises establish a new manufacturing system, which is embodied in the relaxed execution layer, concise business layer and accurate decision-making layer." Luo Fuqiang, deputy director of the Information and Intelligent Manufacturing Department of Chongqing Hongjiang Machinery Co., Ltd., said that as one of the benchmarking enterprises of intelligent manufacturing in Chongqing, the company has continuously promoted the process of digitalization, informatization and intelligence from the three levels of decision-making control, business operation and on-site execution, and has achieved a numerical control rate of more than 90%, shortened the manufacturing cycle by 40%, increased production efficiency by 100%, reduced production costs by 35%, reduced production energy consumption by 40%, reduced the rate of defective products by 15%, and increased energy utilization rate by 20%.
Deng Zhengjun, deputy to the Chongqing Municipal People's Congress and secretary of the party leading group of the Chongqing Yongchuan District Development and Reform Commission, told China News Network that accelerating the development of intelligent industries and the promotion of intelligent applications is a strategic choice to seize the opportunity for future development, and it is also an objective requirement for promoting the continuation of new and old kinetic energy and maintaining the good momentum of economic and social development. Through intelligent transformation and intelligent factory construction demonstration, we will further improve the level of intelligent manufacturing and promote intelligent applications, accelerate the transformation of "Made in Chongqing" to "Created in Chongqing" and "Intelligent Manufacturing in Chongqing", promote industrial transformation and upgrading, and build a modern economic system.
"As far as Yongchuan is concerned, we take intelligent manufacturing as the main direction of leading the transformation and upgrading of enterprises, carry out the three-dimensional development system of machine substitution, 'line' process change, and 'surface' management brain change in accordance with the 'point', formulate and introduce the "Intelligent Manufacturing Empowerment Implementation Plan", guide small and medium-sized enterprises to focus on intelligent production, management and other links, increase investment in technological transformation and upgrading, realize the dual intelligence of production and manufacturing and operation management, and improve the quality and efficiency of enterprise development and core competitiveness."
