Original report
On February 7, Hunan suffered a rare cold wave, and the weather was unusually cold. Walking into Sany Group's No. 18 Lighthouse Factory in Changsha, you will be greeted by a busy and energetic scene. AGV trolleys are busily shuttling around the corners, and more than 100 industrial robots are automatically cutting, sorting and welding. However, apart from the roar of the machines, there were hardly any staff members to be seen.
"In the past, we worked every day in a dusty way, sometimes with burns on our arms, and we had to change our clothes and go home after work. Now I've been wearing this tooling for three days, and it's pretty clean!" Peng Congcong, the team leader of the turntable welding class of the Pump Division of Sany Group, patted his tooling while introducing the clean and tidy modern workshop, and his tone was full of pride.
The reform of the construction of industrial workers is crucial for manufacturing enterprises to realize the transformation of intelligent manufacturing. By building a platform, optimizing the environment, establishing promotion channels and other measures, Sany Group continues to promote the modernization and specialization of the traditional industrial workers, create "new workers", inject new vitality into the modern manufacturing industry, and activate the formation of new quality productivity and new kinetic energy.
"Pas de Deux" with "robot" colleagues
Industrial robots on the production floor
Walking straight from the gate of the factory to the end, passing through the assembly workshop and welding workshop one after another, a pump truck was assembled by the workers and unveiled.
"A steel plate in, a pump truck out, we can take a pump truck off the assembly line in an average of 45 minutes. Peng Congcong introduced. At the scene, except for the assembly workshop, workers are rarely seen in other workshops. Taking the turntable welding class led by Peng Congcong as an example, only two workers need to be on duty in shifts for four welding robots.
The Spring Festival is approaching, and the production tasks are becoming more and more onerous, and Peng Congcong and his colleagues often work overtime. However, with the help of robots, the equipment is running at full capacity, and the workers are only responsible for inspecting incoming materials and maintaining the robots.
Since joining Sany Group in 2007, Peng Congcong has deeply felt the challenges and opportunities brought about by the changing times. Driven by artificial intelligence and digital transformation, welding robot technology has achieved remarkable results in weld seam tracking, information sensing, and intelligent control. Robots not only improve production efficiency, but also are a key part of promoting the transformation and upgrading of traditional manufacturing industry.
"In 2020, when the lighthouse factory is about to be completed, Sany Group has also ushered in an important moment in cultivating new workers. I am glad that I participated in the company's robot programming language beginner training course, successfully passed the exam certification, and also received a reward of 10,000 yuan. Peng Congcong said.
Open up the "dual channel" of skills and management
With the successful transformation of the workers at Lighthouse 18, 400 people were able to complete the tasks that would have required 2,800 people. Surplus personnel can enter the management channel or become process engineers, etc. Peng Congcong is not far behind, under the organization of the company, he has been admitted from a junior engineer to a technician, and is determined to further obtain a senior technician and a special technician. "Once the technician qualification is obtained, the welfare will be greatly improved, and the monthly subsidy of 2,000-5,000 yuan can be obtained. ”
Sany Group has established a skill appraisal workstation and regularly carries out 18 skill appraisals in the machinery industry, including welders and numerical controls. At the same time, the company has formulated the "Regulations on the Management of Skilled Workers' Skill Level Certification", which will give up to 100,000 yuan and 50,000 yuan to workers who have passed the senior and intermediate robot programming language certification, and promote the senior "multi-skilled workers" to be converted into hourly wages, with a salary increase of 10%.

"My life has changed drastically, the working environment has improved, the income has increased, and the intensity of work has decreased. The department also organizes frequent family gatherings, which makes me feel more cohesive and motivated to work. Peng Congcong sighed.
Liu Wenlong, General Manager of Manufacturing of Changsha Company, Pump Division of Sany Heavy Industry, said: "Sany Group has set up a promotion channel for industrial workers and opened up a 'dual channel' of skills and management. This allows technicians, senior technicians, and special technicians to enjoy a higher level of welfare benefits, which further stimulates their enthusiasm and creativity. ”
"Double Promotion" of Industrial Worker Training and Welfare
Sany Group has made it clear that the working and living conditions of industrial workers should "exceed industry standards and exceed employee expectations". This people-oriented concept makes every worker feel respected and cared for.
He Zhengjun is the team leader of the asphalt station of the storage center of Changde Company, the pump road division of Sany Group. On March 1, 2023, he was rated as the group's "Trinity Person". His story is just a microcosm of Sany Group's cultivation and respect for industrial workers.
"I was just an ordinary worker, but by attending the group's skills training course, I became proficient in the new logistics system and made some rationalization suggestions, including designing personalized services, which increased our business volume. He Zhengjun said.
In February this year, He Zhengjun was promoted to the manager of the warehousing center. He said that every step of his growth is inseparable from the support and training of the group, and it is the group that gives employees a stage to show themselves.
It is worth mentioning that Sany Group has spared no effort in the training of industrial workers. They have established a complete talent training system, including more than 200 industrial robot training bases and national construction machinery industry-education integration bases, and have trained a total of 580,000 industrial workers.

Sany Group also actively improves the welfare of industrial workers. From 2022 to 2023, the per capita annual income of industrial workers will increase by more than 25%, and the tangible benefits will make workers more willing to work hard for the development of enterprises. This also further promoted the production and operation of the enterprise, with a 4.2% reduction in working hours per set, a 31% increase in efficiency, and a 50% increase in production capacity.
"In Sany Group, the identity of industrial workers is not only a strength, but also an honor. Liu Wenlong said. "New workers" use their own hands and wisdom to write a glorious chapter of Sany Group.
Reporter's Notes
Forging a team of industrial workers that meet the requirements of new quality productivity
In the wave of intelligent manufacturing, how to transform and upgrade the traditional manufacturing industry and accelerate the formation of new quality productivity has become a major problem in front of enterprises. Sany Group, as a leading enterprise in China's construction machinery, is providing an answer to this problem with its unique perspective and strategy.
Walking into the famous Changsha No. 18 lighthouse factory, the 100,000-square-meter modern factory subverts the reporter's concept of the traditional factory, which is not a factory, but more like a robot kingdom. Robots are busy working, while workers are more monitoring and debugging, which is in stark contrast to the busy and noisy traditional manufacturing industry. Peng Congcong, a technician who grew up from a front-line worker, is the epitome of Sany Group's transformation and upgrading. His story is not only the growth history of an industrial worker, but also a vivid portrayal of the construction and reform of the entire industrial worker team.
Sany Group has opened up a channel for industrial workers to rise through measures such as establishing skill appraisal workstations and promoting technical level certification. Such a mechanism not only allows workers to improve their skills, but also gives them hope in terms of treatment and career development. Peng Congcong's story tells us that when enterprises provide workers with the soil for growth, workers will use their hands and wisdom to promote enterprises to form new quality productivity and create greater value.
In the tide of intelligent manufacturing, Sany Group and industrial workers jointly performed a gorgeous dance of transformation and upgrading. They use their own actions to tell us that only when enterprises and workers work together can we truly realize the transformation and upgrading of the traditional manufacturing industry.
