On October 12, the World Economic Forum (WEF) held a global Lighthouse webcast, and Zheng Hongmeng, chairman of Industrial Rich Union, was invited to share the practice of enterprise transformation, and when talking about the future of manufacturing, he said that digital technology +ESG will promote the expansion of the fourth industrial revolution technology in the field of intelligent manufacturing. Ifulian is committed to building smart factories with real-time monitoring, predictive analytics and autonomous decision-making.
The Global Lighthouse Network is a smart manufacturing eco-network supported by the “Lighthouse Factory” jointly established by the World Economic Forum and McKinsey Consulting Company to identify the world’s leading manufacturing companies and recognize their leadership as pioneers in the innovation of the Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR). The live broadcast feavg members of the Global Lighthouse Network to share how companies are applying Fourth Industrial Revolution technologies to transform at scale and leverage advanced technologies to help redefine the future of manufacturing.
Sharing in detail the transformation of IFIU, Mr Cheng said that IFIU prioritised flexible automation in the transformation process to adapt to the rapidly changing needs of the consumer electronics industry, “We have successfully expanded automation to include processing, material distribution and transportation, tool handling and packaging, enabling us to respond more effectively to market changes”.
Talking about the vision of future manufacturing, Zheng Hongman said that digital technology +ESG will promote the expansion of the fourth industrial Revolution technology in the field of intelligent manufacturing, and Industrial Rich Union is committed to building smart factories with real-time monitoring, predictive analysis and autonomous decision-making. In ESG, the company will use digital tools to mitigate environmental impacts, starting with carbon emissions from factories and ultimately building sustainable supply chains, “a systemic engineering challenge that requires collaboration between companies and industries to explore a sustainable path for the industry.”
As a pioneer in the application of the fourth industrial Revolution technology, Industrial Fulian has started the pilot construction of lighthouse factories from a single site in 2018, and was selected for the first time in the WEF Lighthouse Factory list in 2019. So far, there have been 6 lighthouse factories enabled based on the Fii Cloud industrial Internet platform. At the same time, Industrial Fulian has also achieved its own transformation to science and technology service business, through the continuous export of advanced digital technology, enabling the domestic manufacturing industry to achieve higher quality development, at present, there are more than 1,500 service enterprises, covering more than 10 industries such as electronics, automotive, mechanical processing, tobacco and medical. Including new energy vehicle head enterprises and auto parts industry leaders, upstream aluminum materials industry and other more than 50 enterprises.
