Release date:2023.06.19 Visits:488

 
On March 23rd, Fotile collaborated with CCTV News to launch a live broadcast event with the theme of "100 Flavors of Spring". During the Spring Equinox season, they embarked on a dual experience journey of a spring feast and exploring high-end kitchen appliances in China. During the visit to the factory, CCTV host Sa Beining led the audience to explore the "future factory" of Fotile from the first perspective. Among them, Fotile's original automation equipment and production lines in the kitchen appliance industry, such as automatic adhesive lines, have achieved the reduction of manpower, automation, intelligence, and integration of production lines, showcasing the beauty of modern industry and bringing profound shock to the audience with its unique charm. Where is the magic of the automatic adhesive intelligent production line of Ningbo Fangtai Kitchenware Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Fangtai") "Future Factory", which was built with the help of Shichun Intelligence? Technology opens up new industrial scenes, forming perfect connections between each process from material loading, visual recognition, adhesive bonding to pressing, etc; Within an inch, the robot flickers and moves, unleashing its hardcore "technology"; By effectively managing each production process, the finished product has zero defects and has not peeled off for 20 years... The entire adhesive workshop is clean and tidy, and the automatic detection process is visually identifying product models; The six axis robot is automatically sticking adhesive tape, automatically identifying the remaining amount of adhesive tape, and automatically changing the adhesive disc; The three-axis robot is applying silicone and hot melt adhesive, while the robotic arm shuttles through the track, arcing and dancing; Press the press button to quickly press the glass panel onto the assembly line, and it will automatically lift up after 10 seconds

In 2023, the Department of Economy and Information Technology of Zhejiang Province officially announced the second batch of "Future Factories" in Zhejiang Province for 2022. Among them, Fangtai, a leading high-end kitchen appliance brand, was successfully selected. On the path of transformation towards lean intelligent manufacturing, Fotile has already taken the lead in the industry. The construction of "Future Factory" was first proposed by Zhejiang Province, aiming to encourage capable and foundational enterprises to take the lead, drive production process reengineering and production mode innovation through digital reform, demonstrate and lead the industry to accelerate digital transformation and intelligent upgrading, and promote high-quality development of the manufacturing industry. Being selected for the "Future Factory" list in Zhejiang Province in 2022, Fotile's digital transformation ability and practice have been authoritative and recognized. It will fully play a demonstrative and leading role and become an important showcase for the high-quality development of the manufacturing industry. Since 2017, Shenzhen Shichun Intelligent Equipment Co., Ltd. (referred to as "Shichun Intelligent") has had the opportunity to cooperate with Fotile on an automatic adhesive production line, providing it with an automatic adhesive intelligent production line technology solution that integrates manual feeding, visual recognition, tape application, silicone coating, hot melt adhesive coating, pressing and other processes. Technology empowers the "future factory" and jointly builds a new force in intelligent manufacturing. In November 2017, Fotile and Shichun Intelligent signed the first (first generation) automatic adhesive production line agreement; The first generation automatic adhesive production line. In May 2018, Fotile and Shichun Intelligent signed the second (second-generation) automatic adhesive production line agreement; The second generation automatic adhesive production line. In September 2018, Fotile and Shichun Intelligent signed the first (first generation) automatic adhesive production line renovation agreement; In November 2018, Fotile and Shichun Intelligent signed the third (third-generation) automatic adhesive production line agreement; The third generation automatic adhesive production line. In September 2021, Fotile and Shichun Intelligent signed the fourth (fourth generation) automatic adhesive production line agreement; The fourth generation automatic adhesive production line. In March 2022, Fangtai and Shichun Intelligent signed the fifth (fifth generation) automatic adhesive production line agreement... the fifth generation automatic adhesive production line. The entire assembly line adopts the method of integral double speed chain combined with tooling boards for product transportation, and various functional workstations are arranged on the line for gluing and dispensing operations. Standard automated operation mode, with real-time production images for each process at your fingertips; Centralized monitoring of production status, efficient and stable operation of production lines; Significant improvement in debugging efficiency and dispensing accuracy, three-dimensional control, and intelligent production; Between the dimensions of robots, we feel the charm of intelligent manufacturing together... Shichun Intelligence is gradually turning the production of "smart manufacturing dreams" into reality. This is a new collaboration model between manual and machine labor, which can form more flexible production methods on flexible production lines and manual operations, helping enterprises minimize personnel, reduce workstations, reduce costs, improve production capacity, improve product consistency and reliability, and truly achieve cost reduction and efficiency increase.

Currently, the digital economy and the real economy are deeply integrating, and the process of traditional manufacturing transitioning to intelligent manufacturing is accelerating. In order to improve the level of production and manufacturing, and provide strong support for the construction of Fotile's automated production line, a group of experienced engineers from the top management of Shichun Intelligence, including mechanical, visual, software, electrical, debugging, assembly, and robot applications, have been selected to form a technical team. They have closely communicated and cooperated with Fotile, focusing on completing the optimization design, production line layout planning, technical research, and other work of the first to fifth generation automatic adhesive line schemes, and conducting stability and feasibility testing and verification of key processes in the schemes. On the basis of thorough research and communication, Fangtai organized experts to conduct a comprehensive review of the entire line plan provided by Shichun Intelligence and ultimately obtained approval. In order to meet the requirements of small and high-precision adhesive discs, solve the problems of long debugging time, poor adhesive stability, low adhesive accuracy, high frequency of blade replacement, and high failure rate of new product programs, the supply chain center closely cooperates with the technical support team, efficiently collaborates, concentrates various supplier resources, searches for key component materials, and ultimately meets the requirements. The production and operation center continues to strive to complete production and manufacturing tasks on time with quality and quantity assurance, from process control to later inspection and debugging, without missing any detail. Through the MES production management system, Shichun Intelligence centrally monitors the production and operation situation, achieving centralized coordination and scheduling command of safety, production, quality, equipment, and other aspects of the production site; Realize real-time monitoring of key parts and equipment, and centralized diagnosis and optimization of production site processes and equipment conditions. After the production of the entire line equipment is completed, Shichun Intelligent insists that each machine is carefully debugged and tested by technical personnel with more than 5 years of work experience, ensuring that each machine can only leave the factory after a normal operating time of no less than 15 days, and ensuring that the project ultimately takes root, blooms, and bears fruit. Through collaborative efforts from multiple parties, Shichun Intelligence has overcome various difficulties and completed the production, manufacturing, and on-site debugging of all automatic adhesive production lines, and successfully delivered them. After each delivery, Shichun Intelligence personally sends technical personnel to the customer's production site to provide technical supervision, accompany production, and provide operational education and training, ensuring that all production problems are resolved in a timely manner.
