简体中文 (Lowering voice) Who has not been slowed down by the production line? Changing a production line can easily shut down for three days, orders are flying! At this time, if someone says there is a conveyor line can deform itself to fit different products, do you believe it? Flexible conveying line is this kind of black technology, but more explosive - 2025 this line is hidden in the 46 billion cake, and intelligent warehousing and new energy vehicles in two major areas, is to cut the cake of the golden knife and fork.
The basic question: what kind of business is this? What makes it tick?
Flexible conveyor lines are not ordinary conveyor belts, they are intelligent systems that automatically adjust their tracks and speeds according to the shape of the product. Imagine, the same set of equipment today to transport mobile phone cases, tomorrow to transport battery packs, even without the need to stop debugging. This kind of flexibility can save 30% of time for line change in intelligent warehousing, and increase the speed of production line switching by 50% in new energy vehicle factories.
Why the sudden fire in 2025? Three hard facts:
- lit. scatter money by policy: National intelligent manufacturing special funds this year, the light subsidies spread 3 billion, buy equipment up to 15% purchase tax return;
- Fresh Demand Explosion: new energy vehicle production annual increase of 16%, each production line needs at least 3 kilometres of conveyor line, just BYD this year opened five new factories, conveyor line procurement budget of more than 2 billion;
- a cost-reversal mechanismThe Yangtze River Delta factory workers monthly salary broken 8000, with a flexible line can save 70% manpower, 2 years back to the capital is not blowing.
Scenario question: where exactly should I stick my money?
Intelligent warehousing three major nuggets of gold
- E-commerce sorting centreEast China, a logistics park on the flexible line, double eleven warehouse rate from 30% down to 5%. secret in the track can automatically change lanes, encountered congestion goods will find their own shortcuts;
- cold chain warehouse: -25℃ environment ordinary conveyor line bearings will freeze, flexible line with special lubricant + self-heating module, failure rate straight down 80%;
- Auto Parts WarehouseVolkswagen's Smart Warehouse uses visual recognition + flexible lines to sort brake discs of different models in a mixed flow, reducing the error rate from 3 out of 1,000 to 5 out of 10,000.
New Energy Vehicle Four Must-contend Land
- Battery assembly lineThe new production line of Ningde Times requires a conveying line with a load capacity of 2 tonnes and an accuracy of ±0.1mm, while the traditional line can't bear the vibration at all;
- Motor assembly section: Tesla's flat-wire motors have perverse requirements for the bend radius of the conveyor line, and have to use polymers for the track;
- Charging Pile Production Line: The charging module production line at the Azure Exchange Station requires switching between three product models per hour;
- Transport of hydrogen tanks for hydrogen vehicles: This type of hazardous material must be designed to be explosion-proof, and the conveyor line must be equipped with gas leakage monitoring.
Solution: Don't go in if you can't get this right
How to break the technological necklace?
It is most cost effective to find universities to cooperate. For example, with the Harbin Institute of Technology Robotics Institute to engage in joint laboratories, take the government subsidies can cover 60% R & D costs. Suzhou has a company to do so, developed a magnetic levitation flexible line, three times faster than the traditional line, the patent sold more than 20.
What if I burn too much money initially?
Stare at the policy window to start. For example, this year's "Green Manufacturing Project" special, procurement of environmentally friendly flexible line subsidies 200 per metre. More tawdry operation is to engage in financial leasing, the customer down payment of 30% can use the equipment, according to the water draw, Shenzhen has a company rely on this trick three months signed five million orders.
What if you can't compete with the leaders?
Specialising in cold scenes. For example, to do cosmetics factory perfume pipe conveying line, the requirements of absolute silence + anti-static, this niche field of big factory lazy, but the gross profit margin can be 45%. Guangzhou has a small factory on this, this year's valuation rose 3 times.
(Blackboard) Don't just focus on selling hardware! The most popular now is the 'conveyor line + data service' package. Install IoT sensors for customers and collect data service fees every month. A company in Shandong relies on analysing vibration data from conveyor lines to help factories predict equipment failures, and receives 40 million a year for this alone.
A guide to avoiding the pit: a summary of lessons learnt through bloodshed
- Don't touch the automotive OEMs: These moncler outlet store accounts drag on for six months, and the parts and battery factories are the cash cows;
- Be wary of the king of cross-border rolls: The gang doing AGVs are killing it, and they're playing the price war ferociously;
- Two sets of materials must be available: Aluminium alloy prices fluctuated 40% this year, and smart people signed up for futures hedging agreements.
(Teacups on the table sound) Finally, to be honest: this line is now like 10 years ago lithium batteries, full of opportunities but also full of pits. Remember the three-letter word - fast (iteration to be fast), strange (scene to be strange), Lai (service to rely on customers). This time next year, East China is estimated to emerge dozens of flexible line brand, but now enter, you can still drink the first bite of soup.
