The complicated mood of textile machinery upstream and downstream enterprises towards intelligent manufacturing

After applying the intelligent system for chemical fiber filament production, the per capita output of Xinfengming Group Co., Ltd. has increased by about 250%. Compared with before, the labor expenditure of the entire factory can be saved by about 600 million yuan. At the 2018 Textile and Apparel Intelligent Manufacturing Solution Promotion and Textile Intelligent Manufacturing System Solution Supplier Matchmaking Conference held a few days ago, vivid examples reflected that intelligent manufacturing is improving production efficiency, improving product quality, improving market rapid response capabilities, and alleviating labor. Shortage and environmental factors have played an important role.   The textile and apparel industry has a long chain, many production processes, and various types of equipment, resulting in a long production cycle, low efficiency, and high labor costs in the textile industry. Under the situation that the cost of various domestic production factors is increasing, textile and garment enterprises have an urgent need to reduce labor, reduce labor intensity, and improve product quality and production efficiency. Since the 'Twelfth Five-Year PlanSix areas of manufacturing. Business representatives and experts from chemical fiber, spinning, weaving, printing and dyeing, nonwovens, clothing and other fields, as well as representatives of smart manufacturing solution suppliers, gathered together, introduced their practices in smart manufacturing, proposed future demand directions, and They shared their thoughts on smart manufacturing. Value and significance:    promote innovation, green, coordinated, open and shared development. According to Hou Xi, Secretary-General of the Textile Industry Sub-Alliance of China Intelligent Manufacturing System Solution Suppliers Alliance and Deputy Secretary-General of China Textile Machinery Association, he is currently engaged in chemical fiber production and spinning. Yarn processing, weaving processing, dyeing and finishing, non-woven fabric production and garment production have already had more typical intelligent manufacturing cases. From the intelligent spinning demonstration project of Xinjiang Esquel Textile Co., Ltd. with 15 employees per ten thousand spindles to the full-process digital workshop of Changling Textile Electric Intelligent Weaving, from the integrated solution of finishing and wefting and wefting of Changzhou Hongda Electric Co., Ltd. to Hengtianjia The digital workshop for the production of pure cotton spunlace nonwovens of China Nonwovens Co., Ltd. all reflects the value and significance of the industry's intelligent manufacturing results. Shandong Jinan Yongxin New Material Technology Co., Ltd. is a domestic high-end medical and health-use biomass material research and development and production enterprise. Its products rely on antibacterial and antibacterial, hemostatic and healing properties, moisturizing and moisturizing, etc. The field has quite good development prospects. According to general manager Wang Jing, the company has initially constructed a new order-driven, flexible and intelligent spunlace nonwoven production model, covering multiple aspects of 'one center, three platforms, and four standard systems'. The smart manufacturing central command and dispatch center under construction, as the brain and nerve center of the smart factory, can perform unified scheduling of data in the whole process of production and operation, and realize data collaboration with MES and ERP, open up data islands, and realize the interconnection and intercommunication of data throughout the plant; The intelligent equipment monitoring under construction can integrate and apply a series of high-sensitivity sensing devices and high-precision quality online inspection systems to achieve accurate detection, real-time feedback, online diagnosis and intelligent correction of equipment status and product quality under high-speed production conditions. In the next stage of development, Yongxin Company will continue to vigorously develop customized ERP systems, develop and apply multi-joint industrial robots, develop and apply full-process intelligent spunlace production lines and intelligent warehousing logistics equipment systems. Han Lixin, deputy chief engineer of Beijing Machinery Industry Automation Research Institute Co., Ltd., believes that intelligent manufacturing is a big concept, a deep integration of a new generation of information technology and advanced manufacturing technology, which runs through all links of the entire life cycle of product design, manufacturing, and service. The optimization and integration of the corresponding systems aim to continuously improve the product quality, efficiency, and service level of the enterprise, reduce resource consumption, and promote the innovative, green, coordinated, open and shared development of the manufacturing industry. The system architecture of the smart factory is mainly composed of enterprise life cycle management and product life cycle management, and life cycle management needs to be realized by a research and development platform, a production operation platform, and a service platform. When talking about the construction of smart factories, he said that the three key points of planning first, laying a solid foundation, and doing a good job in integration cannot be ignored. Hou Xi said that the smart manufacturing projects that have been implemented in the textile and apparel field have all achieved automated digitization, most of which have been networked, some have intelligent equipment and functions, and some projects also use big data and manual labor. Intelligent Technology. This fully embodies the characteristics of the parallel development and integration of the three paradigms of intelligent manufacturing in my country. On this basis, the intelligent manufacturing of textiles and garments will develop in a more intelligent direction. At the same time, it will expand to other fiber raw materials such as acrylic fiber, spandex, and flax fiber, and expand to other processing technologies such as cloth dyeing, needle punching, and spun melting. The expansion of home textiles and industrial applications will eventually enable digital networked and intelligent manufacturing to be fully promoted in the fields of apparel, home textiles and industrial textiles.

What Are the ISTA Standard Tests and ISTA Testing Equipment?
ISTA (International Safe Transit Association) standard tests are globally recognized transportation packaging test procedures designed to evaluate the safety and reliability of products and their packaging throughout the logistics chain. By simulating real-world transportation conditions such as drops, vibration, impact, stacking, and compression, ISTA testing helps identify potential packaging weaknesses before products enter large-scale distribution. ISTA testing equipment—including drop testers, vibration testers, incline impact machines, and compression testers—plays a critical role in accurately reproducing these conditions under laboratory settings. Proper selection and use of ISTA-compliant equipment enable manufacturers to reduce transportation damage, lower return costs, enhance packaging design, and improve customer confidence in product quality and logistics safety.
