Domestic Labor Shortage Is Broken By Automatic Shoe Machine.

Expert analysis, ten years ago benefited from the demographic dividend, Quanzhou Footwear industry Rapid rise, but after the time came into twenty-first Century, skilled workers are getting old; in the middle and western regions, the manufacturing areas which have already started are closer to home, so that migrant workers are no longer willing to travel far away from home; the new generation of young people's employment intention in the lower workshops is weakened, and the wages of enterprises are increasing year by year. This series of changes forced the coastal manufacturing industry to transform and upgrade and get rid of human dependence. Therefore, accelerating the transformation of labor-intensive production base to automated intelligent unmanned workshop has become a trend of the development of footwear industry in Quanzhou.

　 　 Shoe enterprise transformation The enthusiasm of the production line is high.

"500 Shoe machinery The booth was sold out in advance. " The head of the shoe fair said that the booth announcements had just been released, and the exhibitors' owners had queued up early. "In recent years, the willingness of enterprises to purchase equipment to reduce manual input is strong, which has led to the enthusiasm of footwear manufacturers in the production area, especially the relevant industries in Taiwan. The person in charge said.

In fact, in the shoemaking industry, many shoe makers have been self mocking "working for their workers". According to incomplete statistics, in recent two years, the cost of manpower has increased by more than 10% per year. "Sometimes even a pay increase can't get workers." A shoe company official said such embarrassment appeared more and more frequently since 2010. In this case, the enthusiasm of shoe manufacturers to transform the production line is high. At the beginning of this year, many shoe machine enterprises received many large orders, and buyers' demands were all focused on the intelligent automatic shoe machine. The popularity of automation equipment involved many subdivision fields in the shoe machine industry. Taking the simplest cutting machine as an example, the efficiency of automation equipment is up to the traditional 3 manual devices.

"The shoe machine has been demonstrating and the head is overheated." In the exhibition booth of Chengfeng machinery, the automatic rubber packing machine, which can realize the front and back sides of the left and right feet, has been sought after by merchants. Exhibitors Mr. Zhang said that before the shoe, the left and right feet of the shoes should be replaced by a machine, and the feet should be replaced by machines. A group of machinery originally needed two rubbing hands and 3 waist hands. Now the whole province has a group of machines, which can save 5 employees.

"Our shoe machine can also achieve memory input." On the next side of the Chengfeng machinery booth, Mr. Yu, the same footwear manufacturer from Taiwan, said that their upper can not only meet the requirements of the right foot and foot, but also can collect data through the intelligent computer.

The shoe makers at the shoe fair are "competing for the best". The common selling point is that the quality and quantity are reduced and the labor cost is reduced. "Our 3D computer shoe upper machine can achieve one-off production of upper vamp without using artificial fabric." Ye Xiao ping's Ding Shaodong said that the traditional production of vamp requires punch, high-frequency, embroidery, lathe and other manual processes, and now 1 employees can take care of 6 vamp machines.

3D scanning of mechanical hand acts as quality supervisor.

If shoe machines and vamp machines are to be further reduced in manual labor, many enterprises in the forefront of the industry are considering how to directly hire "intelligent workers" and solve the problem of employment at a time.

"According to the needs of enterprises, we have developed specific solutions to help enterprises solve actual production needs, in cooperation with many universities including Kazakhstan in China." Li Jianhua, director of Jinjiang Productivity Promotion Center, said. In the science and technology exhibition hall of the shoe fair, the reporters saw many new and high technology exhibitions from the workshop to the management level. "Manipulator plus 3D scanning and other functions, it has the level of intelligent workers." Cai Cai, Harbin Institute of technology, said that this product is suitable for small batch and multi style production. Today, the automation level of large-scale workshop has been gradually improved, and the demand for customized high-end consumer demand has been guided. The demand for intellectualized demand is increasing due to the demand of "small and beautiful" flexible production line. "The cost of human resources in the general customized production line is higher. After grafting the computer intelligent program, the highly automated manipulator can realize the intelligent chemical engineering order of quality supervision and packaging through the functions of 3D scanning."

"This production line has landed and is being debugged." Li Jianhua said that the demand for more traditional shoes and clothing industry is also placed on how to manage the unmanned workshop. For example, the automatic thread breakage detection system of warp knitting machine can realize the requirements of the unmanned workshop. It originally needed manual inspection machine, and a worker inspected two machines to prevent breakage. However, frequent personnel errors resulted in an increase in the number of defective textiles. The latest research plan was to add an automatic testing system to the computer to detect the textile disconnection after the warp knitting machine was compiled. At the same time, through the design of the central control system of the whole workshop, the goal of the unmanned workshop could be realized, and the manager could grasp the broken line condition without leaving the office. "From broken line to being detected, only two cm wide textiles will be wasted, which is more accurate than manual detection."

"In fact, enterprises have been carrying out automatic upgrading. Only some of the processes must have manual operations. These jobs are either bad in working environment or technical, and there are light and busy seasons in factory production. These workers are hard to recruit and difficult to maintain." Li Jianhua said, for example, the cutting process of the collar cuffs of the knitting industry, one cut and one pumping, one group needs two workers, and the intensity of work is large. Nowadays, the automatic cutting and cutting system launched by them and universities can be integrated through automatic transmission, automatic grabbing, automatic thread picking and automatic cutting. A set of equipment of more than ten million yuan, an employee's annual salary of nearly 50 thousand yuan, about a year to recover the cost. Another example is the material collecting process of leather making industry. After the leather is processed by line, every equipment needs to be uncovered and loaded from the production line. For this simple action, there are two workers. The shoes are very heavy and the working environment of workers is bad. They have designed an automatic receiving and placing system, which can automatically fetching the leather into the truck. "These intelligent technologies are launched according to the weak production links that enterprises had to use manpower, some of which have landed in enterprises, while others still stay on design drawings." Li Jianhua said that automated intelligent production is the trend of the times. Of course, not all mechanical and intelligent workers can become excellent employees at once.

Unmanned workshop dreams come true

"Some enterprises customize intelligent workers according to their own needs, and more companies directly connect to the world's best quality equipment production lines." Quanzhou inspection and Quarantine Bureau responsible person said that this year, the traditional shoes and clothing enterprises actively buy the world's leading machinery production line. In the first two months of this year, Quanzhou has inspected and supervised 22 batches of international advanced imported textile equipment and 34 million 100 thousand US dollars, representing an increase of 69.2% and 283% respectively.

In the new workshop of Fujian Longfeng Textile Science and Technology Industrial Co., Ltd., Jinjiang, Shenzhen, ZW408 has imported more than 600 Jin Tian Ju water jet looms, which have just been imported from Japan this year, and have been put into operation in batches. In the spinning workshop on the first floor, the 13086 weft threads of the loom are weaving through water and weaving weft and weft. If it is a common packaging fabric, a loom with a width of 1.8 meters can produce nearly 700 meters per day. On the other hand, a woman worker is holding a flashlight to check the fabric of each loom slowly spitting out to see if there are any defects. In fact, her work is not too complicated. Because even if there is only one broken line in more than ten thousand wires, it will be induced by the built-in optical fiber of the loom, and the equipment will be automatically shut down for maintenance. Therefore, the residual rate of finished products is also lower.

In fact, many traditional manufacturing industries including the dyeing and finishing industry have speeded up the upgrading process. Shishi xinxianghua dyeing and finishing Development Co., Ltd. also introduced Taiwan high temperature dyeing machine this year. This highly efficient batch dyeing equipment can reduce the tension of fabric dyeing, apply to the dyeing of many kinds of synthetic fabric, and also apply to the dyeing of natural fiber fabrics. At the same time, according to the different kinds of fabrics can be replaced with different specifications of nozzle, the highest speed of cloth roller reaches 350 meters / minute.

"Inspecting around like this, each worker can take care of 100 machines on average." Longfeng textile new factory official said, "now the production line workers' study (Trial) period salary has been opened to 3000 yuan / month, the average wage of the general workers in the peak season has reached 5000 yuan / month, but up to now no recruit has been filled, and the investment in new equipment has been reduced by half of the manpower input. Companies can't upgrade, but in recent years they have been upgrading equipment. "

"The trend of collective rise has been evident since last year." The head of the inspection and Quarantine Bureau said that last year Quanzhou imported 95 batches of textile equipment and 77 million 980 thousand US dollars, an increase of 216% and 117% respectively, which are mostly advanced equipment in the world, including air-jet looms, warp knitting machines, dyeing machines and other textile equipment and textile machinery parts, mainly from Germany, Switzerland, Italy, Japan and Taiwan, China.

Real time management of mobile phone software

Good equipment to play an effective role, the need for intelligent management core, Longfeng textile related personnel mentioned that their advanced equipment must be intelligent design layout, and now through the advanced equipment has been purchased, they are finishing warp, coating, and axis three production processes are only one person on duty, plus a duty monitor, each class of 4 people can fully control the area of 20 thousand square meters of the workshop.

No matter what you lose, you can't lose your phone. In the era of the popularity of mobile smart phones, the use of intelligent management of production process control provides a convenient tool for enterprises to reduce staff, improve efficiency and reduce waste. "We have just installed intelligent ERP management software for several shoe manufacturers in Jinjiang." Lin Xinjian, deputy general manager of strawberry run soft chin, said that their ERP management system would be connected with mobile phones, from materials to factories and warehouses to shops until they could complete the whole process of supervision according to the needs of enterprises. For example, the approval of a project needs to be conveyed at the meeting. It needs to be written and sealed. Now it only needs to be approved by mobile phone. In addition, there are proofing. When the original sample is used, the number of workers in the workshop is more than the number of samples. Nowadays, the number of specific samples can be calculated through smart phones, so as to avoid waste. When purchasing, you can also accurately calculate the required materials to avoid material waste.

"No one can recruit, only the machine." A shoe company official said, of course, the machine will also have faults and other defects. The key is to calculate the equipment wear and maintenance cost in the early stage when calculating the equipment input. Generally, it is necessary to ensure that the renewal equipment can recover the cost within a year and a half, otherwise it will be too expensive. Enterprises should upgrade, equipment manufacturers are also accelerating competition, and there is room for bargaining when competition exists. When introducing equipment, enterprises should pay attention to upgrading and upgrading of the original equipment, and pay attention to the industry leading degree of their equipment. Otherwise, if the equipment needs to be updated frequently, the capital pressure is also great. Of course, intelligent upgrading management is also very important, such as coordination among departments, and so on. It can not improve production capacity, but it is not easy to link up with other links.
