Nowadays, the application of 3D printers in all walks of life benefits from the development of intelligent manufacturing.
With the development and application of intelligent technologies such as industrial robots, 3D printing, Internet of Things and big data, the food machinery manufacturing industry is also moving towards automation, intelligence, lean and green.
industrial robot
Food processing and packaging machinery manufacturing are important industries that provide technical equipment for the food industry.
In recent years, with the rising prices of production factors such as labor and energy, the production costs of food equipment manufacturing enterprises are also rising.
The landing of industrial robots in the manufacturing field will reduce the labor cost of manufacturing enterprises, reduce material loss, ensure product consistency and shorten product delivery time.
Since 20 13, China's industrial robot application market has maintained a rapid growth of more than 20% for five consecutive years. In 20 18, the market scale reached 8.74 billion dollars, and the industrial robot market was improving.
5G communication technology
As the fifth generation mobile communication network, the peak theoretical transmission speed of 5G can reach every 8 seconds 1GB, which is hundreds of times faster than the existing 4G network.
The high-speed data transmission of 5G network can greatly facilitate enterprises to control artificial intelligence equipment and manage production data. Manufacturing enterprises can also remotely control equipment through the 5G network, simplifying production and planning processes and improving production efficiency.
In addition, the 5G network can provide the high bandwidth and low latency needed to continuously enhance the image quality, which means that equipment manufacturers can troubleshoot, build and maintain production equipment through AR.
three-dimensional printing
3D printing (3DP), also known as additive manufacturing, is a rapid prototyping technology. It is a technology that uses sticky materials such as powdered metal or plastic to construct objects by printing layer by layer.
It is usually realized by digital technology material printer, which is used to manufacture models, and now it is gradually used to directly manufacture some parts.
3D printing technology will change the traditional supply chain process and product design process of manufacturing enterprises, and provide enterprises with flexible production capacity of customized products.
Internet of things technology
The Internet of Things is an information carrier based on the Internet. It collects the data generated in the manufacturing process in real time through information sensors, radio frequency identification technology, global positioning system, infrared sensors and other devices and technologies, and realizes intelligent perception, identification and management of the manufacturing process.
Using IOT sensors in manufacturing equipment can carry out real-time comprehensive monitoring, so as to better manage operating costs.
In addition, close monitoring can find production lag and eliminate waste and unnecessary product inventory.
big data
Now the word big data is mentioned more and more, and people use it to describe and define the massive data generated in the era of information explosion.
In the manufacturing industry, it determines the future development of enterprises, and more and more enterprises are beginning to realize the importance of data to enterprises.
Big data is the foundation of manufacturing intelligence. Using these big data for analysis will greatly improve the efficiency of warehousing, distribution and sales, greatly reduce costs and optimize the supply chain.
In addition, big data will also bring an information reform to the manufacturing industry, bringing more and more advanced technologies to the manufacturing industry to make up for the low overall level of the manufacturing industry.
Conclusion: The maturity and application of a new generation of general technologies such as robots, big data and 3D printing have injected great vitality into the food machinery manufacturing industry. Under their leadership, flexible production, customized production and intelligent production lines of food equipment manufacturing industry have become possible.
Judging from the future development needs of the food industry, the integration of food equipment and information technology has become an important support to promote the upgrading of the food industry.
