On March 14, the Shenghong China Fiber Trend 2018/2019 conference took place at the National Convention and Exhibition Center in Shanghai. Organized by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the Consumer Products Industry Division, the China Chemical Fiber Industry Association, Donghua University, and the State, the event was sponsored by the Textile and Chemical Fiber Product Development Center and co-organized by Jiangsu Guowang Hi-Tech Fibers Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of Shenghong Group. The conference aimed to showcase the latest advancements in the textile industry's transformation and development.
In response to emerging technologies like big data, cloud computing, and artificial intelligence, Shenghong has prioritized intelligent manufacturing as a core strategic focus. By integrating smart technology with information systems, the company is redefining traditional manufacturing and transitioning toward modern high-end industries.
One key challenge in smart manufacturing is avoiding "equipment dependency." At the spinning workshop of China National High-Tech, only two workers monitor automated processes. Spinning winders operate autonomously, with spindles neatly wound and automatically signaled when full. An automatic doffing machine arrives five minutes early, collects the spindles, and sends them via an intelligent transporter to a robotic system that handles the next steps. This process, once reliant on human labor, now runs seamlessly through automation.
This is part of the first domestic chemical fiber production intelligent logistics system developed by Shenghong Group. In collaboration with the Beijing Institute of Automation Machinery since 2010, the system overcame technical challenges, filled domestic gaps, and improved China’s independent research and development capabilities in large-scale chemical fiber production. It also challenged existing monopolies in both domestic and international markets.
Shenghong doesn’t just rely on imported equipment; it adapts and enhances them based on its own needs. For example, an Italian-made elasticized intelligent processing system was modified by Shenghong’s team, resulting in full automation from doffing to packaging. Today, foreign companies use Shenghong’s technology for similar applications in China.
The shift to smart manufacturing has brought significant benefits. According to Mei Feng, chief engineer at Shenghong Chemical Fiber, after implementing smart workshops, the company saved about 15 million yuan annually, reduced labor costs by 34%, cut failure rates by 55.9%, and increased unit output by 29.8%. Production capacity grew by 33.06%, with higher accuracy and success rates.
China National High-Tech uses world-leading equipment and advanced production lines, achieving global standards. Automated operations have streamlined processes from doffing to packaging, reducing human intervention and improving product quality. The excellent product rate increased by 2.5%, and quality tracking became faster and more accurate.
Automation also reduced the number of personnel on the packaging line by nearly 50%, easing labor shortages. Through the Internet of Things, all production orders are managed from the main control room, allowing real-time monitoring and adjustments via mobile devices.
Shenghong integrates advanced technology, modern management, and IT systems to optimize production planning, control, and management. In 2017, the company invested 20 million yuan in deep integration of enterprise intelligence and IT, enhancing management efficiency and systematizing workflows.
Looking ahead, Shenghong’s new projects highlight the importance of intelligent and information integration. In 2018, three major projects were underway, including a 300,000-ton differentiated fiber smart project, a 60,000-ton bio-based PTT fiber project, and a 750,000-ton functional fiber project. The 300,000-ton project, backed by a 1.2 billion yuan investment, will introduce 128 sets of advanced equipment, producing high-value DTY products using self-produced POY. This project exemplifies the “smart transformation†of the textile industry through the integration of information and intelligence.
