The tire giants compete for intelligent production
Logistics automation in production, and the world tire giants have invested heavily to perfect the related system, including Finland Cimcorp logistics automation system, hankook, Goodyear fully automated warehousing logistics management system operation system, Apollo logistics management system, etc, have already is a mature logistics automation system.
In Finland Cimcorp logistics automation system, for example, its cover tyre harvesting control system, automatic quantitative harvesting system, automatic embryos in handling and storage system, automatic grinding, storage, pallet loading system and other automation program. The system can automate the whole process from the tire shape to the finished product.
It has been found that robots are playing an increasingly important role in the production of tyres. In the process, enterprises can not only reduce labor cost, improve production efficiency, but also reduce energy consumption and reduce pollution.
In the field of intelligent manufacturing, most of the tyre industry giants has developed its own unique production technology, such as Michelin C3M technology, pirelli MIRS technology, sumitomo Taiyo production systems, Goodyear, bridgestone BIRD IMPACT technique system and ACTAS automatic production system, mainland MMPS technology and ComtiLifeCycle technology, and so on.
Pirelli said it has successfully developed the second generation of modular integrated automation systems, which are expected to be put into use in 2015. In addition, sumitomo is working on a new generation of manufacturing processes that will be applied to a wider range of areas, such as tires and truck tires.
The intelligent production of domestic enterprises started
China rubber industry association, a former President of Fan Rende in examining a domestic tire enterprises, improve the level of tire production automation is a global trend, China tire enterprises must consider the problem.
Ministry of science and technology in 2012 "the intelligent manufacturing technology development" twelfth five-year "special plan" and "service robots" twelfth five-year "development of science and technology special planning", the personage inside course of study have predicted that the robot industry will become a large domestic emerging high technology industry, the rapid development will drive related industry rapidly into the intelligent manufacturing.
The personage inside course of study tells a reporter, although with the international giant tires there is a big gap, but with the rapid development of tyre industry, domestic tire enterprises also common to realize intelligent advantage, some intelligent manufacturing backbone enterprises have been in the stage of start and gradually improve.
It is understood that a subsidiary of soft holdings is specialized in the research and development of automated solutions based on robotics technology. Since 2010, the company developed the rubber tyre handling robot and intelligent transportation system, to fill the domestic blank, technology is leading in the international community, to promote the domestic rubber tire industry played a major role in the intelligent development.
As a developing province of tire industry, shandong rubber tire industry is entering a new stage of automation and intelligent production. "Through the automatic operation of industrial robots, the new production line will save a third of the manpower," said li yong, deputy general manager of shuangxing group, introducing the new project.
According to li yong, Qingdao double star will vigorously promote the robot, through information, intelligence, automation, improve efficiency and reduce energy consumption.
Reporter learned that, in addition to the Qingdao doublestar, triangle, fengshen, copper cash and other well-known domestic tire enterprises are a huge money and effort, in order to in terms of automation, intelligent production to narrow the gap with foreign tire giant
