Under the promotion of "Industry 4.0" and "Made in China 2025" strategy, transformation and upgrading has become the only way for the development of domestic automation enterprises. This visit to the United States will lay a solid foundation for Foxconn's transformation into intelligent manufacturing, and also bring a warning to the domestic manufacturing industry.

Recently, the news that Foxconn is going to build a factory in the United States has stirred up a thousand layers of waves. As the world's largest contract manufacturer, Foxconn is officially cheap labor. Once a factory is built in the United States, the labor cost will be many times higher. According to media estimates, the annual salary of employees in the Wisconsin factory is not less than 54,000 US dollars, equivalent to about 360,000 Yuan. In China, the average annual salary of Foxconn's ordinary front-line employees is between 50,000 and 60,000 yuan, and the labor cost of building a factory in the United States is about 6 times that in China, which has a significant relationship. So why did Foxconn make this decision?

It turns out that Gou has already realized that the era of cheap labor has passed, and the replacement of machines has become an inevitable trend. This time, Foxconn chose the LCD panel business with a high degree of automation to build the factory in the United States, which greatly reduced the proportion of labor costs. Rockwell Automation will cooperate with Foxconn's new factory in the United States to practice the intelligent manufacturing concept of connected enterprise and industrial Internet of Things, deploy advanced industrial Internet of things solutions, and create a top manufacturing system with high operational efficiency.

At present, Chinese manufacturing industry is still too dependent on the low cost of labor, only the large-scale use of industrial robots to replace the human labor, to achieve the production process automation and precision improvement, can fundamentally improve the production efficiency, make more reliable products with quality assurance.

From this point of view, Wison Group is the best example. With the latest seven-axis robot working in collaboration with human resources, Wison Group has achieved a 45% increase in production efficiency and a 50% reduction in labor costs. It used to take 20 people a day to complete 5,000 meters, but now five robots can complete them in about eight hours, greatly improving the production efficiency.

The rapid development of industrial Internet of Things, cloud computing, big data and artificial intelligence has also brought a storm of technological innovation to the traditional manufacturing industry. In the future, more industrial equipment will be added to the system of industrial Internet of Things, greatly improving the intelligent level of operation and maintenance.

The automation of the production line and the intellectualization of the product itself are two trends of the development of manufacturing industry in our country, one of which is indispensable, only closely following the development trend, two pipes under, can not be eliminated by The Times!
