What is the future outlook for the sheet metal manufacturing industry?

Made in China 2025 aims to transform China from a "manufacturing giant" into a "manufacturing powerhouse." Therefore, establishing an intelligent sheet metal factory requires a unified enterprise management system to improve work efficiency. By organizing production based on data analysis, production resources can be allocated more rationally, improving production efficiency and enabling low-cost mass customization.

Currently, most sheet metal manufacturing plants are labor-intensive enterprises with low levels of automation, informationization, and intelligence. Their production management systems are relatively isolated, data is scattered, and there is a lack of transparency. As production costs and efficiency become major challenges, the contradiction between labor shortages and the demand for high-precision product manufacturing is becoming increasingly apparent. How to quickly achieve good products is an urgent task in sheet metal engineering.

In recent years, as China has become a global manufacturing center and a major exporter of sheet metal products, sheet metal manufacturing, the foundation of the hardware processing industry, has made breakthrough progress. However, the Foshan sheet metal manufacturing industry, located in the Pearl River Delta region, is in its development and growth phase. Some customer needs cannot be met temporarily. What is the future development trend? Let's analyze it together.

China has been a member of the WTO for many years, but the current sheet metal manufacturing industry is still underdeveloped. To cope with the impact of foreign companies, the industry itself needs to be integrated to ensure that our national industries can stay ahead of the rest of the world. Therefore, sheet metal manufacturing the industry needs to integrate industry production and supply and demand relationships on advanced internet platforms in order to remain competitive in the sheet metal industry and better develop domestic and international markets.

The application of modern information technology enables enterprises to develop and better utilize their resources, identify opportunities, make informed decisions, and improve operational efficiency. This is the fundamental purpose of establishing an information-based digital factory.

Without the support of information technology, a digital factory cannot operate. Against the backdrop of information technology, people, machines, materials, methods, environment, and measurements are analyzed, planned, and reorganized; schemes are formulated; business information generated during production and operations is recorded, stored, and managed; and all levels of personnel can access all dynamic business information, thereby achieving high-quality and rapid product realization.

Currently, there is a small number of sheet metal processing enterprises in China, and there is a shortage of professional high-tech personnel. In the future, the development trend of the sheet metal manufacturing industry will be towards intelligence, so the demand for sheet metal manufacturing capabilities is also increasing. In summary, sheet metal manufacturing optimizing its own technological strength, resources, and advanced enterprise management models will enable it to achieve higher profit levels in future fierce competition!
