"First, automation should be automated on the basis of improving the quality of the customer's processes, not just using robots to reduce a few people." This is a personal view of tao xibing, chairman of Qingdao kejie robot co., LTD., on BBS, the theme of the 7th China international robot summit. This view was recognized by many in the audience.
 
In his speech, tao dong, share the robot in the current our country manufacturing industry to upgrade the automation of the application of several industries, such as auto parts manufacturing industry, 3 c industry, logistics industry, etc. These industries all have a common characteristic, is the mainstream of manufacturing industry in our country, and is a labor-intensive industry, choose and employ persons, production level, is the most need to a few industries of industrial upgrading in China.
 
He said cojie was aiming for improvements in key processes in the industries, improving the quality and technology of the products, rather than simply reducing the process by reducing several people. In contrast, the history of Germany, German companies rarely rely on artificial rising costs and capacity to solve this problem, German companies are upgrading to high-end manufacturing towards this process, this is what the industry is worth learning.

Dear teachers and experts, I am from cojie, Qingdao, and I am glad to have the opportunity to report our products and applications to experts. My title is "manufacturing in the new era, improving process quality is more important than machine substitution".
 
19 report pointed out that China's economy is by the high quality development stage of rapid growth stage, convert momentum critical period, the construction of modern economic system is the urgent request of crossing the barrier and strategic goals of our country's development. We believe that the upgrading of the manufacturing industry is more important during this great economic transformation, which is a very important contribution to the industry.
 
Our families express the team is a veteran in robotics, as early as in 98 to enter the industry, was a robot, haier's original team, now has 209 acres of industrial park in Qingdao hi-tech zone, by the year 2015, for a long time with Harbin industrial university, beihang university, huazhong science and technology, such as shandong university for joint technology research.
 
Case sharing
 
The first is an application case in the auto parts manufacturing industry.
 
Jie to master the core technology of rubber tire industry, aiming at forming, sulfide, inspection, warehousing and other key working procedure, special research and development a gantry robot, can well realize the auto tire handling. At present, the fifth generation of dragon gate, which can replace 130 people, can be realized by collecting and storing all 10 thousand factories. Through mass to promote a new round of industry, the industry before dry ten million car tyres need to three thousand people, now only need to one thousand people, the productivity is very rapidly.
 
Cord is a very narrow but very important in the auto parts industry products, involving tires very important safety index, when driving on the highway is cord to ensure family life. The previous industry was also manual production handling and manual distribution testing. We help through one of the world's second big clients on a complete set of automation system, this problem is very good, before the customer can only be sold to domestic large enterprises, is now France's Michelin, Michelin Mexican factory all orders went down to the company.
 
Automobile lightweight automobile industry has become the world's the inevitable road of sustainable development, hot forming technology is one of the important means of power auto lightweight development, a car can take as many as 17 hot forming parts, is of great significance to auto lightweight;
 
By the end of 2016, there are more than 300 such production lines around the world, with 40 to 60 of this kind of production line in China, and the majority of them rely on imports, which is expected to increase by 140 by the end of 2018. Cojie spent five years working on the project, making the first line for clients in 2014. This line has took five or six lines after production orders, chery and jac have begun adopted at present, at present is the development direction of the electric car, electric cars can lose weight is to this section parts.
 
And the 3C industry's smartphone assembly system. At present our main products are the several aspects, first is the composition of the product, the second is the production logistics, AGV, EMS transport vehicles, as well as the software industry, WTS and MMS, this is the scene photos to the customer.
 
Secondly, the 3C industry is employing a large industry, which has the situation of labor shortage, low production efficiency and unstable product quality. Jie at the same time grasp the robot technology and the core of the mobile phone production process is foxconn group in mainland China only a partner, provides a more than 20 smartphone foxconn assembly lines, application of robot more than 2000 units, including apple 5, 6, 8 of apple products.
 
The third is the woodworking industry, if the consumption stratification, million-dollar house, hundreds of cars, all level of furniture, the furniture industry is our very large industry in China, production methods and the environment is very bad, we do the pilot is not for the woodworking industry, but a picture frame. Ikea global sourcing fifty million times a year, we do this production line is for ikea suppliers do, before the line, for people are basic, completed 40 people, the four of the line can now, the whole process of production materials, ingredients, are implemented with robots, two long and short of frame, the frame change multiterminal, including its material, does first glue then nailing, together again, this is very fast. Ikea orders now more than 2600 2600, ikea purchasing director to go to the factory, he think this line is not Chinese, he considered the germans, then to our factory to see he didn't think Chinese can also design, not only high efficiency, defective rate is lower, to reach more than 99% points. We capture the core of this industry, which is now globally including Max, wal-mart and the big ones that need this kind of frame, and the production efficiency is up by 20%.
 
Above this is we in this industry do several more typical case, our aim is more advanced, the industry process need, we want to do an industry upgrading, use our understanding of the industry to do this, we think the inside of the factory production efforts to ascend, means promoting his products in the external market competitiveness, if you put the improved process, cost reduction, he in the international competitiveness will be greatly promoted, it is absolutely a meaningful thing. Second, is not based on the backward management automation, we think if we make automation must improve product process, if you don't get information on the backward management technology make automation, must want to improve management, including the field of automation, cooperate with robotic automation by means of management, with the challenge of informatization management level of ascension.
 
So I hope that you can join together to help China's manufacturing industry and upgrade China's economic industry. Thank you.
