"Lean Printing Smart Factory" is linked by Shengtong Publishing Service Cloud Platform, which can provide services for the publishing and printing industry from pre-order to warehousing and distribution. Externally, through the Internet of Things, mobile Internet, big data, e-commerce platform and network printing platform, the interconnection of customers, suppliers and affiliated enterprises in the printing industry chain is realized; Internally, through enterprise informatization and equipment intelligence, the interconnection of internal resources, intelligent equipment, information systems and people is realized; Finally, through the interconnection between internal and external, the "intelligent" production of products is gradually realized.

The "Lean Printing Intelligent Factory" basically realizes the automation and intelligence of the key process nodes and production lines of printing, and connects the materials between the processes through data instructions. An automatic delivery device is installed on the commercial rotary printing machine to realize automatic collection, automatic tie-up and packing of booklets, and automatic clamping and stacking; The continuous bookbook feeding equipment is installed on the perfect binding machine to realize the one-time feeding of the whole package of booklets, which effectively saves labor, increases the stability of the equipment, and reduces the probability of mispasting. At the same time, with the effective interaction between the management system and equipment data, the data collaboration ability between equipment and equipment is improved, and materials can be transported and coordinated between processes through AGV manipulators, for example. Through the improvement of automation and the accumulation of data, the self-learning of the system and the independent optimization of functions can be carried out through big data, and finally the intelligent factory can be realized.

Upgrade the management model and master the digital technology

01

Multi-system collaborative planning and scheduling

With the help of Shengtong Publishing Service Cloud Platform, it provides customers with a variety of access modes such as traditional information input, AI order recognition and data interconnection, integrates the functions of ERP, APS, WMS, TMS, CRM and MES systems, and makes the best use of the production capacity of orders in Shengtong four places and eight factories through APS, ensures delivery, realizes the transfer of physical materials between different processes driven by digital through the TMS system, and realizes the data exchange between the equipment operation status and the platform through the MES system. In order to realize the platform-driven automatic operation of printing, collection, processing, packaging and other links, and also realize the synchronization of information flow and material flow between processes, so as to ensure that product production is delivered on time, on time and with high quality driven by digital instructions.

Enterprise supply resource management system

Shengtong Publishing Service Cloud Platform integrates all the contents of supply chain management, establishes an enterprise supply resource management system, realizes supply chain data integration, can realize the integration of information systems such as procurement, production and warehousing, and carries out supplier management and quantitative evaluation.

Two

Build a "green, digital, intelligent, and integrated" development pattern

The intelligent construction of Shengtong Printing is a process of gradual evolution and improvement from "single-point application", "from point to line" and "from line to surface". At the beginning of the construction of smart factories, there are more digital single-point applications, and the application of data in each link has significantly improved this link, and the effect is quickly revealed, but most of the data is transmitted manually, and there is no organic link; Subsequently, with the continuous deepening and extension of single-point applications, technical means are used to connect the equipment of different processes to form the automation of the production line and improve the production efficiency and quality; Finally, the smart factory brings together various element resources through the platform to realize the optimization and collaborative sharing of the whole chain business of the enterprise. Entering the stage of system integration, the intelligent transformation began to extend from the inside to the outside, realizing the whole chain of information management from the customer to the company's internal processes.

Through the construction of a smart factory, Shengtong Printing will take the publishing service cloud platform as a bridge, and the external collection and feedback services of the front-end information of the publishing house will be included, and the scientific scheduling of multi-point and multi-factory production capacity will be realized within the enterprise, and the equipment operation will be driven by data instructions to achieve intelligent production. Shengtong will continue to adhere to the development direction of "green, digital, intelligent and integrated", adhere to the concept of "science and technology is the first productive force, talent is the first resource, and innovation is the first driving force" proposed in the report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, and set an example for the high-quality development of the high-end printing industry.
