Beacon factory for digital transformation
The lighthouse factory is the leader of intelligent manufacturing, when we encounter wind and waves, darkness, do not know the direction, people will need a lighthouse. On the road of manufacturing upgrading in China, Lighthouse factory has the characteristics of networking, automation and more optimization, but also has the representativeness, technology, efficiency and value to guide the vast manufacturing industry in China.
The Lighthouse factory has stepped out of the territory of the digital factory and started the journey of the digital enterprise. On the basis of digital production, they open up digital channels with other value chains, realize resource optimization of each value chain, and bring new core values to downstream customers and upstream suppliers. Their approach is diverse, for customer personalized highly customized, for shortening the product to market delivery collaborative design and production, for product value-added services remote interconnection advanced analysis, but also for the whole supply chain optimization and supplier interconnection transparency. Fourth Industrial Revolution technology can not only reduce the cost of the enterprise itself, but also realize the core value creation of the entire ecosystem.
