The concept of "sharing economy" has led to a large number of new industries. As a new type of "shared production end" model, "sharing machine tools" has distortedly changed the traditional way of resource allocation and was considered as a breakthrough to promote the development of China's manufacturing industry to the high end. Can the new model of "sharing machine tools" lead the manufacturing industry to high-end?
Sharing Value with Stakeholders
Big data reshapes the commercial civilization, and the sharing of production end (machine tools) is a revolution in equipment manufacturing. In 2007, according to the traditional production method, one worker operated a machine tool; the “shared machine tool” networked the i5 intelligent machine tool through an industrial operating system and realized the sharing of production, resources, talents, technology, and services.
How to share industrial manufacturing? The traditional business model of manufacturing enterprises is the “arbitrage” and “price increase” model, and the model we create is to achieve value sharing with stakeholders through the “time, quantity by part, and value by value” approach; the organizational structure of previous manufacturing companies. It is established for management and control. It does not create value. The organizational structure under the shared model is established based on the value of the information technology. There is no consensus in the industry for measurement standards. The current shared cloud platform allows everyone to create value that can be measured. And can be shared in real time; past technological breakthroughs are the creation of new formulas and logics, and sharing mode is a breakthrough through case precipitation.
To "reduce" for manufacturing companies
How can "sharing machine tools" promote the revitalization of industrial bases and even benefit the Chinese real economy? Utilizing the advantages of the Northeast Industrial Base and the high-skilled talents, it will “reduce the burden” for manufacturing companies, bring orders for small and medium-sized enterprises, and pave the way for start-up teams to “handle bags.”
In Shenzhen, a local manufacturing company has become a beneficiary of "shared machine tools." The company has more than 500 employees. Last year, it added the "metal cutting technology" production line and received a million orders from a U.S. mobile phone supplier. Enterprise general manager Wen Kai said: "If a company purchases 500 machine tools for this purpose, more than 200,000 yuan will have to pay more than 100 million yuan at a time. With a "shared machine tool," a machine tool will pay 5,000 yuan to 8,000 yuan each month. Yuan's rent can be, the burden is greatly reduced." Not only that, Wen Kai also found the necessary skills in the sharing platform. Shenyang Machine Tool has dispatched more than 300 skilled workers in two batches. In more than two months, the order fulfillment rate reached 106%, and the product yield reached 100%. Wenkai, who tasted the sweetness, had to build a "smart factory" in a shared mode in the enterprise this year.
In a smart factory in Hubei, nine "shared machine tools" were turned down in three shifts. The local makers are using these machines to undertake various types of orders. The machine tools are not idle and the processing volume has doubled. The general manager said: “The “shared machine tool” is used for iron and steel, users and orders are flowing.”
"When the order is good, I can share it with other SMEs. They come to help me to quickly complete the order and everyone can make money together," said the general manager.
Internal employees of the company put forward the “safety entrepreneurship” model, where the company connects to the market and provides site, raw materials, and equipment maintenance services. The entrepreneurial team can achieve “bags in”. “In the sharing model, everyone in the industry chain is not an employment relationship but an interest-related relationship. That is, everyone can become a blue-collar boss.
Thanks to the advantages of the shared model, over the past three years, the company received orders for more than 20,000 units of i5 intelligent machine tools, signed more than 50 smart factories nationwide, and signed about 9 smart manufacturing valleys, creating a miracle sales rate.
The development also needs to improve the credit system
"The 'sharing of machine tools' can only be accomplished by the company's own efforts, but it requires the participation of world-class resources and high-end talent," said the general manager. To this end, the company has actively established three major groups: Shen Ji Intelligent, Shen Ji International, and Double Innovation. Established high-end product design centers in Berlin and Stuttgart, set up product marketing centers in Frankfurt and set up product testing centers in Arthursleben.
"Facing the future, smart manufacturing is an irresistible trend." How to achieve "true sharing" and "real economy" in the trend requires further improvement of the credit system, improvement of basic facilities construction, and clear machine tool measurement rules.
It is understood that on the market more than 20,000 i5 intelligent machine tools, only 11,000 units are connected to the "shared platform", and more than half are still not connected to the Internet. Some business owners are afraid that technology will be misappropriated after sharing. In the future development of “sharing machine tools”, it is necessary to improve the credit system and dispel the concerns of business owners.
At this stage, the machine tool lends the machine tool to the customer in the form of “zero down payment” and charges it by the hour or by the amount of processing. At present, the company's machine tools are exploring how to use the "flow" settlement, the use of data transferred back to the machine tool to work out the world's industrial industry accepted settlement standards, so that China's manufacturing has the right to speak, to create a new industry development industry.
