On December 8, the Forum on "Manufacturing + Smart Fiber Technology" co-sponsored by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, Chinese Academy of Engineering, China Association for Science and Technology and Jiangsu Provincial People's Government and hosted by China Textile Engineering Society was held at Nanjing International Youth Convention Center.

On the basis of the first session, the conference is divided into three sections: "Zhi Ling Global Carnival", "Zhi collar global summit" and "Zhi collar global exposition" with the theme of "gathering together. . Among them, as an important constituent unit of "Zhi-Ling Global Summit", the forum of "Manufacturing + Smart Fiber Technology" aroused the industry's deep thinking on the intelligent development of the textile industry chain by focusing on the current situation and prospects of smart fiber technology in the field of intelligent manufacturing .

On the day of the event, guests including Executive Vice Chairman of China Textile Engineering Society Fu Guangwei, Vice Chairman of China Textile Engineering Society, Xie Ming, President of Jiangsu Textile Industry Association, and Fu Ruihua, Vice Chairman and Secretary General of Jiangsu Textile Engineering Society attended the event . In addition, the forum also invited the Academy of Mechanical Engineers of the United States, Hong Kong Polytechnic University professor Tao Shaoming, Harvard University senior fellow, national experts plan thousand experts, chairman of Suzhou Yinluo Medical Devices Co., Ltd. Gong Xiaoyan, Japan Institute of Fiber Science and Technology , Japan Hsin-Hsiu Hirai Lee Bo, Wuhan Textile University School of Materials Science and Engineering Executive Director Wang Dong, Guangdong Oulang Smart Garment Co., Ltd. Group Chairman Xie Dunmin as a guest speaker, to share the latest research results of smart fiber technology, the total textile industry intelligence The endless possibilities of change.

In order to explore the advanced technology and experience of intelligent manufacturing in the textile industry and encourage more textile enterprises to join in the exploration and practice of intelligent manufacturing, the conference released 10 "2017 intelligent manufacturing demonstration enterprises in the textile industry" and 15 "2017 textile industrial practices Line intelligent manufacturing pilot enterprises. "

Fu Guangwei: Intelligent Manufacturing is the inevitable choice for the future of mankind

Fu Guangwei said in his speech that fiber is the source of all textile products and its development and extension have an important supporting role in the textile industry chain. In view of the possibilities of smart fiber technology in the field of intelligent manufacturing in the future, he put forward three considerations.

First, the definition of intelligent manufacturing. China's textile industry has continuously upgraded and transformed itself in the development of informationization, automation and networking and has made great contributions. For example, flexible production, digital management of the industry chain and other technologies in the world are at the leading level. From this perspective, the exploration of intelligent manufacturing by China's textile industry plays an important role in the intelligent transformation of the world's textile industry.

Second, intelligent manufacturing is an inevitable choice for the future of mankind. Optimization and improvement of production efficiency are the necessary paths for the survival and development of mankind and are widely reflected in the textile industry. Such as network construction, remote design, no-man shop, large-scale high-level customization, etc. all gather the textile exploration and pursuit of intelligent manufacturing.

In his view, the past "industry + Internet", the Internet is a means; the future of "Internet + industry", industry has become a means of the Internet is the foundation. In the future, supply chain integration will gradually shift from manual integration to intelligent and network-based integration. When the Internet is becoming more and more important in integrating industrial resources, "Internet + Industry" will be the main direction of smart manufacturing for some time to come.

Third, to provide consumers with more convenient, more functional clothing is the historical mission of the textile people. With the continuous development of new technologies, the industry should deepen its understanding of smart wearable apparel and think about new development paths and possibilities for intelligent products brought by intelligent production.

Expert perspective

Tao Xiaoming first conducted a speech entitled "Opportunities and Challenges of Smart Manufacturing Smart Apparel Products". She said the manufacturing industry is at the lower end of the traditional value-added smile curve of the industrial chain. In the future, the manufacturing industry should develop toward both ends and strive to compete in the blue waters. Innovative exploration of fiber technology and intelligent application, will help the industry to improve product added value, develop a unique competitive advantage.

Gong Xiaoyan, in his speech entitled "Research and Development of Functional Hydrogels", shared functional hydrogels with participants as foreground of applications in life science as mediators connecting life and machinery.

Hirakata LP shared the innovative achievements in the field of intelligent polymer materials in recent years with the theme of "Status and Prospects of Smart Textile Technology in the Textile Industry and Science and Engineering" and put forward some suggestions on the intelligent application of new materials in the textile and garment industry guess.

Wang Dong said in his keynote speech, "Fusion and Innovation of Fiber Materials and Wearable Technology," that as the upstream of intelligent manufacturing innovation in the textile industry, emerging fiber materials have become a new generation of smart wearable technologies in the field of textile and apparel intelligence, energy conservation and environmental protection. Information technology, biology, industry and other integration and innovation, with great development prospects.

Xie Dunmin to "new biodegradable fiber material ternary linear research and application" as the topic, share the latest achievements in smart fiber. He said that in the era of knowledge-based economy where information technology, life sciences and advanced technologies are rapidly developing, new types of smart fiber textiles are moving toward high comfort, high functionality and high intelligence.

Five experts in the smart fiber field shared wisdom of dry goods, bringing a high-standard and high-quality ideological feast for guests present, which is extremely cutting-edge in the aspects of theme connotation, application value and industrial significance.

At present, China's textile industry is upgrading and restructuring, and the textile industry is also moving toward Industrial 4.0 and China-made 2025. In the future, smart manufacturing will definitely give birth to a disruptive change in the textile and garment industry. Fiber as the source of all textile products, its intelligent exploration will bring the industry a new opportunity to win the starting line.
