03 YIZUMI i-Factory, stepping into a new era of intelligent manufacturing

During the activity, the guests visit the YIZUMI China Wusha No.3 Factory, which includes two parts: YIZUMI i-Factory and Ultra Large Die Casting Machine Factory. By adopting the concept of streamlined and smart manufacturing, YIZUMI i-Factory has planned according to the concept of Industry 4.0. flexible manufacturing system (FMS), intelligent central warehouse system, robotic automated painting system, automated in-plant logistics system and production lines for different components and machines installed. Coupled with the CRM, ERP systems and highly customized WMS and MES systems, the production pace is 15 minutes per machine, and the design capacity of a single shift reaches 1000 machines per month. In comparison with the traditional production method, the production cycle is shortened by 33% and the overall output is increased by 80%.

YIZUMI Ultra Large Die Casting Machine Factory is the first Ultra Large Die Casting Machine Factory in China. It has the annual production capacity of 100 large and super-large die casting machines, with an additional turnover of over 1 billion Yuan. To better meet the production and assembly requirements of super-large die-casting machines, the factory building of the factory has been laid out in advance in terms of height and span, which can meet the production equipment of 20,000T of super-large die-casting machines at the maximum, and will help YIZUMI become a leading enterprise in the field of "Integrated die-casting".
