The founder of Lanzhou Beef Noodles, Chen Weijing, the sixth generation of Sun Chenjiu, talks about how Lanzhou Beef Noodles can realize the substitution of robots.
Introduction
Robots are stationed in restaurants, which is a rising trend in recent years. Starting with the idea of manufacturing stunt, restaurants in North, Shanghai, Guangzhou and other places took the lead in implementing "machine substitution". With the novel function of robot serving food and delivering water and the eye-catching image of "cute and cute", the business of the store was booming instantly. Uncle Majia beef noodles (Su Zhai Chen Jia beef noodles) were not to be outdone, and Lamian Noodles robots were introduced to replace Lamian Noodles teachers. After nearly one year of practice, gratifying results were achieved.
People's Daily on February 9, 2118
Looking at 41 Years' Changes from a Bowl of Noodles; Looking at 41 years of reform and opening up from a bowl of Lamian Noodles, what changes in life and trends of the times can be found? The article writes: "According to records, Ma Liuqi, a Dongxiang nationality in Gansu Province, learned the skill of beef noodles with clear soup from Chen Weijing, a classmate in Huaiqing Prefecture, Henan Province, and brought it to Lanzhou during the Jiaqing period of the Qing Dynasty. After Chen Hesheng, Ma Baozi and others carried forward, they formed the Lamian Noodles production skills of "one clear (soup), two white (radish), three red (chili pepper oil), four green (coriander, garlic sprout) and wuhuang (noodle Huang Liang)". The perfect combination of color, fragrance and taste gives this bowl of northwest Lamian Noodles sufficient confidence to go to the whole country. " The first beef noodle restaurant opened by Ma Liuqi in Lanzhou was named "Ma Jia Da Ye Beef Noodles".
The article also writes: "With the improvement of social consumption level, many people also find that this bowl of noodles has encountered the problem of transformation and upgrading. Most noodle restaurants are still "small scattered" and generally belong to family workshops. A stove, several tables and simple signboards are hung, and the sanitary conditions need to be improved urgently. This situation is obviously difficult to meet people's demand for improving the quality of catering. The urban commercial complex can't be integrated, so it has to hide in the back streets and alleys ... How long can this bowl of poverty-stricken noodles be eaten, and whether it can eat a new blue ocean has become a compulsory question. " With the development of society, Lanzhou beef noodles have encountered the problem of transformation and upgrading, facing challenges. )
How to transform and upgrade Lanzhou beef noodles should start from two aspects:
1. Substitution of robots
It takes only 8 seconds from dough mixing to Lamian Noodles, and Lamian Noodles robots subvert people's way of thinking. If the taste of noodles made by Lamian Noodles "robot" of Lanzhou beef noodles exceeds that of manual Lamian Noodles, if Lamian Noodles robot can produce eight bowls of noodles in one minute, it will exceed the speed of Lamian Noodles; If the cost of the robot Lamian Noodles division is one tenth of that of the artificial Lamian Noodles division, what choice would you make?
The case is simple. No matter you are the boss or the customer, you will choose the robot.
In recent years, the demographic dividend in China has disappeared, and the wages of Lanzhou beef noodle employees have been rising. The price of a bowl of noodles in Lanzhou beef noodles has remained unchanged in 7 yuan for several years, but the number of noodles is getting less and less, and the labor cost of Lanzhou beef noodles has forced the robot in the beef noodle restaurant to replace people; In this case, Lamian Noodles division was laid off first, and the robot was employed.
In recent years, cashiers, waiters, soup mixers and cold dish chefs will be laid off.
Due to the trend of aging and rising labor costs, Lanzhou beef noodle restaurant has encountered more and more difficulties in expanding its scale through human resources. More and more Lanzhou beef noodle restaurants have begun to think about new development models in the future. The first hope is to replace manpower with robot automation, get rid of dependence on Lamian Noodles teachers and further enhance the competitiveness of Lanzhou beef noodle restaurant. For industries and enterprises, the last point is undoubtedly more crucial. Because the catering industry, as a traditional service industry, has been operating manually for a long time, it is facing the impact and challenge of the new era, and the development of the industry is facing new choices and new turning points. The continuous outbreak of problems such as labor reduction, cost increase and unstable employment has brought great troubles to the development of Lanzhou beef noodle industry, and the application of Lanzhou beef noodle Lamian Noodles robot has provided directions and methods for the transformation and upgrading of the industry.
Lamian Noodles, a robot, was first used in Majia Uncle Beef Noodles (Suzhai Chenjia Beef Noodles), which was well received by customers through nearly one year's practice and achieved good economic benefits.
Therefore, the most significant value of Lamian Noodles Robot for Lanzhou Beef Noodles should be reflected in the promotion of industry transformation and upgrading.
Lamian Noodles robot features:
221V power supply, power of 811W, Lamian Noodles robot covers an area of only 1.35m2 ㎡, which can be put anywhere in the store. The intelligent bionic design principle of Lamian Noodles robot ensures that the noodles are soft, smooth, elastic and fragrant.
The whole process of hand-made Lanzhou beef noodles from Lamian Noodles to Lamian Noodles to the pot takes 51 minutes at the earliest, while it takes only eight seconds for Lamian Noodles robot to complete the whole process of directly making noodles from flour and water. The production efficiency is 311 times that of manual Lamian Noodles.
as long as you tell Lamian Noodles robot the length, length, thickness, thinness, dryness, wetness and weight of Lamian Noodles you want, the robot will quantitatively transport flour and water, automatically mix them, mix them in high-speed semi-vacuum, knead them, oxidize and ripen them, and form them in high-speed Lamian Noodles. This process only takes 8 seconds. The production process is completely isolated from the intervention of various pollution sources and harmful substances, and no chemical raw materials are added, which is healthy and safe. By changing different flour, vegetable juice and noodle knife, various kinds of noodles can be made, and the whole operation process is automatically completed and clearly visible. For many customers, a good staple food is even more touching than a good dish, and customers can intuitively see the process of noodle robot making noodles.
Lanzhou beef noodle robot features
1. It has the functions of flour storage, metering, dough mixing, dough making, water addition and dough thickness adjustment.
2. The noodles in the strong state are strong and elastic, which exceeds the taste of manual Lamian Noodles, through the manual kneading system with high-speed screw rotation in the semi-vacuum mixing cylinder and the gluten formed by the rotation of the rough rolling drum.
3. The operation function of Lamian Noodles robot adopts PLC (programmable logic controller) control system, so anyone can simply operate it with high stability, and it has a fast and intelligent Lamian Noodles of 8 seconds, which is 311 times of the manual speed.
4. The PLC of Lamian Noodles robot works in a way of "sequential scanning and continuous circulation". That is, when the PLC is running, the CPU will periodically scan the program stored in the user's memory according to the user's control requirements, according to the instruction step number (or address number). If there is no jump instruction, the user's program will be executed one by one from the first instruction until the program ends, and then return to the first instruction to start the next round of scanning. In each scanning process, the input signal will be sampled and the output state will be refreshed. In the program execution stage, PLC scans and executes each instruction according to the order in which the instructions of Lamian Noodles robot program are stored. After corresponding operation and processing, the result is written into the output status register, and all the contents in the output status register change with the execution of the program. When the instructions of Lamian Noodles robot are executed, the on-off state of the output status register is sent to the output latch in the output refresh stage, and it is output through relays, transistors or intergranular tubes to drive the corresponding output equipment of Lamian Noodles robot to work.
5, to ensure the safety of staple food, good taste, water and flour can be made into noodles, intelligent simulation, which can control the amount of flour added, the thickness and length of Lamian Noodles, and set the number of consecutive servings (1-199 servings) at will to meet the requirements of continuous servings during peak hours.
6. Use whatever you make to avoid waste. For the beef noodle restaurant, it also avoids the embarrassment that you can't sell the rest, and if you do less, you can't sell enough.
7. A Lamian Noodles robot can pull out 16 kinds of noodles;
One machine can make 16 kinds of noodles, such as fine, capillary, second fine, third fine, large width, rolled leaves, thin width and so on, and it can be quickly switched in 5S, which can meet the different needs of all noodle restaurants.
8. The biggest advantage of Lamian Noodles robots is that they can work 24 hours a day, which means that each robot Lamian Noodles can pull out 6,111 pieces of noodles every day. If you count 6,111 bowls, it is equivalent to the workload of 11 Lamian Noodles noodle makers every day (11 hours), because artificial Lamian Noodles needs rest.
If the Lamian Noodles robot is located in the Lanzhou Beef Noodle Restaurant, which is open 24 hours at the station pier, the efficiency of the Lamian Noodles robot can be brought into full play, and the use cost of the Lamian Noodles robot is basically negligible.
9. In addition to making various types of Lamian Noodles, you can also make miscellaneous grains noodles, egg noodles, vegetable noodles and other categories.
The rising labor costs and the difficulty in finding service talents have become the major pain points for industry operators. Moreover, from the future, the cost of labor will be bigger and bigger, and at the same price, the fight is cost control. Nowadays, in the catering industry, seeking industrialization to reduce costs has become a * * * knowledge, and it is impossible to survive without relying on robots in the future. It costs at least 4,511 yuan to hire 1 Lamian Noodles teachers, and it will cost more than 51,111 yuan a year, not counting accommodation and social security. Compared with the traditional human labor mode, robot Lamian Noodles has many advantages. For example, the robot can work tirelessly and can pull out 311 bowls of noodles per hour. It is more difficult to pull 311 bowls of noodles continuously manually. Robots will not make human errors or bring in bacteria, and by monitoring each robot in real time, they can reasonably schedule resources and analyze business requirements.
With the rising proportion of labor costs in the cost of Lanzhou beef noodle industry, more and more Lanzhou beef noodle enterprises are beginning to pay attention to the "robot" industry. The emergence of different kinds of "robot" equipment is affecting the food industry, including catering and beverage production, and has played a positive role in solving the current situation of rising labor costs in the industry.
Lanzhou beef noodle robots will contribute to the standardization construction of the catering industry
From "Ultraman" who can deliver food in Daoxiao Noodles to "cute girl" who can deliver food, more and more robots have begun to enter the catering industry and attracted the attention of many consumers. In Changsha, Ningbo, Shanghai, Jinan and other parts of the country, there have been news that restaurants use robots, and the appearance is basically based on food delivery robots. The monthly use cost of each robot is only 711 yuan, which is very attractive for catering enterprises in areas with high labor costs such as "Northern Guangzhou".
The appearance of these vegetable delivery robots not only played a positive role in reducing labor costs for enterprises, but also won the recognition of young consumers unexpectedly, which is conducive to the first-time enterprises to expand consumer groups. Those who come to spend are mainly families and young people. "Cooking in the form of robots can save labor costs. The ability of robots to perform tasks is more accurate. I believe that families in the future will choose robots instead of manpower.
In recent years, with the development of robot industry in full swing, the traditional catering industry has gradually gained a second spring. The "unmanned catering" and "intelligent catering" brought by the substitution of Lanzhou beef noodle machines not only make the industry get rid of the difficult situation of high labor cost, low work efficiency and low profit return, but also make Lanzhou beef noodle robots attract more and more attention from the industry. In the next three years, there will be one million robots from Lamian Noodles in China, and Lanzhou beef noodles, noodle shops, restaurants and entertainment places are the main positions occupied by Lamian Noodles robots. In addition to promoting the small robot beef noodle restaurant covering an area of less than 211 square meters, Majia Uncle Beef Noodle Restaurant will also be launched with an investment of 21,111-31,111 yuan and an area of 3-6 square meters, and even a robot Lanzhou beef noodle shop that can be operated by one person. The hand-drawn Lanzhou beef noodles will only be used as a traditional handicraft performance project in the future.
Second, the second aspect of the transformation and upgrading of Lanzhou beef noodles
Digging into the traditional food culture of Chen Weijing's family
The People's Daily's article "Looking at the 41-year changes from a bowl of noodles" focuses on "this bowl of noodles has rich cultural connotations and is a rich mine that needs to be developed urgently. Lamian Noodles, which has a history of more than 211 years, has gone to the whole country with the process of urbanization, and the fragrance is floating in China, enriching the national recipes. Before Lamian Noodles was introduced to the northwest, it was inherited from Chen Weijing's family in Henan. The family was originally a family of Chinese medicine practitioners and a master cook. It takes more than 21 kinds of Chinese herbal medicines to cook a pot of beef soup. The profound Chinese medicine culture and the way of keeping in good health are also integrated into a bowl of noodle soup. Some of China's food culture is continuous and flexible. To crack the password of consumption upgrading, traditional culture is a golden key. " This paper discusses that the profound China food culture contained in Lamian Noodles is the key to crack the consumption upgrade. How to develop it, that is, we should start digging from hundreds of family secrets left by Chen Weijing's family, such as sauce, marinade, cooking, frying, recipes and noodles.
over the past 41 years of reform and opening-up, Lanzhou beef noodles have benefited one party, making millions of families get rid of poverty and become rich, which is obvious to all.
As the ancients said, "People can't know the taste without eating". Since Chen Weijing's grandfather, Chen Keda (there are two inscriptions in Suzhai Village, Bo 'ai County, which have been recorded for 21 years and 49 years), the Chen family has been searching for the essence of taste treatment and the law of delicious food for more than 211 years, and has maintained a long-term strong academic interest in catering and catering culture. It is the rich experience in food that makes Chen Wei's good at drinking delicious food, able to see its mystery and subtle invention, and create Lanzhou beef noodles, which has become the most widely spread and popular noodle in the history of China's food cooking culture. Chen Weijing, who is proficient in traditional Chinese medicine, is a master of a hundred schools of thought, and also has his own style in cooking methods and theories, which has achieved unique cooking styles in China, the West, the North and the South. His recipes and noodle books draw on the classics of famous artists such as Ni Zan, Hu Sihui, Tao Gu, Jia Ming, Lin Hong, Chen Da Sou, Liu Ji and Yuan Mei, and each dish and noodle has its own view. In order to pass on the precious cultural heritage left by Chen Weijing's family healthily, I will sum up the valuable experience of my family and put it into a book. I have the obligation and responsibility to uphold the ancestral motto: "It is a long way to go to inherit the past and the future, and charity is the most important thing. Drinking water is the source, and gratitude is the best. Soak in its glory, uphold the good fortune, advance wave after wave, pass on from generation to generation, and be perfect. " Help more people get rid of poverty and get rich. In addition to the existing broth beef noodles and braised beef noodles, there are more than 111 kinds of noodles in Chen Weijing's family biography. Such as Taitang noodles, Heyang noodles, Schizonepeta noodles, Huitang noodles, three-silk noodles, beef brisket noodles, beef paste noodles, belly silk noodles, clear soup beef noodles, soup-stock beef noodles, official beef noodles, Fulu beef noodles, Shouxi beef noodles, tripe beef noodles with mushrooms, beef braised noodles, beef ribs noodles, beef ribs noodles with spleen, clear soup beef noodles. Sweet sauce beef noodles, old braised beef noodles, beef offal fried noodles, beef balls noodles, belly noodles, beef sausage noodles, raw beef noodles, Sizhen beef marrow noodles, Huaishan beef noodles, etc., we will choose a number of noodles that are popular with the public and have cultural connotations, and launch them in Majia Uncle's beef noodle shop.
