Irreplaceable advantages of the industrial Internet

810-066590-004 If the outbreak had happened much later, and Gunson Protective Technology had been liquidated, workers had been laid off, and equipment and plants had been auctioned off, it would have been impossible to resume production, even if the government had intended to invest.

Under the normal economy, the relevant enterprises, institutions and governments may not have such enthusiasm to promote the industrial Internet into the industry, which involves very complex costs, policies and benefits, and may not see results in the short term. This is also the difficulty of the development of China’s industrial Internet to today. However, in the face of disaster level emergencies, many links that could not be opened up before will become smooth, and the drawbacks of the system and mechanism will be exposed. Under enormous pressure, the parties involved in each link will come up with unprecedented enthusiasm to seek solutions. This is where the industrial Internet comes in. The industrial Internet community may wish to take “solutions to major public health emergencies” as a key work in the next two years, and effectively establish and operate the system.

Back to the mask factory, the basic material of the mask is non-woven fabric, nylon thread, nylon strap, and some models of masks have aluminum nose clips. Non-woven fabric is manufactured by melt-blowing process, which is simply to melt polymer raw materials into liquid, spray into filaments with nozzles, layer upon layer, and finally form cloth materials. Some non-woven fabrics also add activated carbon and other adsorption materials. After the non-woven fabric is available, it is necessary to use a special sewing machine to superimpose, sew, sew on the binding, and then use volatile glue to stick the nose clip in place. In fact, many of these processes are already automated, especially the melt-blowing process. The sewing process is semi-automatic. It is the low-tech jobs of feeding machines, packing finished products and transporting them that rely purely on manual operation. As long as the automation and intelligence of several human-highly involved links are solved, the feeding and packing processes can be completed with robots or remote 810-066590-004 control equipment, and the black light factory can be realized. As for the transport of raw materials in and finished products out, unmanned trucks are already a reality. The high-speed road closure scenario provides ideal operating conditions for unmanned driving. Moreover, the machine does not need to celebrate the Spring Festival, does not need overtime pay, and will not fatigue in 24-hour operation. The whole process can be completed with only a small number of technical support personnel involved.

In addition, the industrial Internet of public health emergency materials production is itself the best way to stop the spread of plague. Today’s manufacturers of emergency supplies, including masks, splash screens, and protective clothing, are relatively labor-intensive industries. Both production and shipment require a lot of manpower. These daily commutes and the Spring Festival travel rush also result in a high concentration of people. Automated, intelligent production has greatly reduced the need for manpower, and also reduced the probability of the spread of plague.
