The Tire Factory

Following the lens of “Super production line”, the first thing that catches the eye is the clean and bright mixing workshop, and the uniform and highly automated production equipment makes the reporter’s eyes shine.

Li Jun, head of equipment of General Stock equipment Department, told reporters that the whole steel tire china tire factory takes Industry 4.0 as its goal, introduces advanced technologies such as big data, cloud computing and artificial intelligence, and achieves intelligent production management from mixing, components, molding, vulcans, testing and warehousing. It is the industrial Internet demonstration benchmark the tire factory in Jiangsu Province and was awarded the “national intelligent manufacturing excellent scene”.

As the first process of tire production, mixing is also the key process to determine the quality of tires. The workshop adopts the international first-class mixer, highly introduces the automatic production mode, and realizes the full automation of the production process through accurate information management and control.

At the same time, the mixing workshop also has an intelligent three-dimensional storage system, which integrates automatic warehousing, intelligent classification, positioning and monitoring to achieve batch management, rapid warehousing and dynamic inventory, greatly improving the material inventory flow rate.

According to Li Jun, the tire factory has a total of six semi-product three-dimensional warehouses, which not only effectively avoid the bottleneck problem of traditional warehousing, comprehensively improve the management efficiency of warehousing, logistics and production, but also save working space and reduce the floor area, and the total area is reduced by 400%.

Intelligent Tire Technology

In addition to 5G intelligent tire technology, the factory also applies advanced intelligent tire technology such as digital twin simulation to realize the two-way traceability of the entire production system, and monitors the entire production process of the tire through implanted chips, bar code identification devices, etc., so that each tire produced has its own unique digital identity. Compared with the traditional production mode, the labor cost is saved by 50%, the production efficiency is increased by 40%, and the operating cost is reduced by 20%.

It is worth mentioning that General stock half steel tire factory has the first vulcanized “black light workshop” in the industry to achieve operation, and the whole production line can achieve 24-hour uninterrupted production without lighting and manual intervention, greatly improving production efficiency and saving energy consumption.
