<p>（第一财经）12 月 11 日——格力电器将在其位于广东省珠海的智能工厂推出一条完全无人化的第三条生产线，为未来格力空调的全自动化生产和包装铺平道路，该家电制造商的一位子公司总经理告诉第一财经。</p>
<p>格力电器（珠海金湾）总经理陈华东表示，该工厂的智能生产模式将逐步推广到格力在中国的其他 13 个空调生产基地，以及生产其他产品的工厂。</p>
<p>这座于 2023 年投入运营的智能工厂目前拥有两条自动化生产线。工厂车间内以机器人和智能设备为主。这两条生产线共使用了超过 2000 台工业机器人，将每条线的人工工人数量从通常的 70 多人减少到仅 20 多人，自动化水平提升至 80%。</p>
<p>第一财经在现场访问中指出，组件装载、焊接、部件安装和测试等工序均实现了自动化。甚至贴产品标签和包装等任务也由机器人完成。当机器人将空调放入箱子时，其仿生手甚至会轻轻摇晃箱子，以确保产品紧密贴合。</p>
<p>生产线经理游毅诚表示，通过整合视觉和感知技术，以及使用系统算法和大型语言模型，工厂的机器人似乎拥有了眼睛、耳朵和手。例如，拧紧螺丝的机器人可以自主决定操作方式，并独立获取生产所需的数据。</p>
<p>游毅诚表示，人工智能已取代了工厂中的人工检查。在两年的试运营中收集了超过 30 万条数据，这些数据用于训练人工智能系统，以检测可能表明潜在问题的故障声音和异常噪音。</p>
<p>游毅诚表示，在每台空调下线之前，都会使用智能设备进行性能测试。曾经完全依赖人工通过视觉、听觉和触觉进行检查的任务，现在完全由人工智能设备完成。</p>
<p><strong>早期启动</strong></p>
<p>陈华东表示，格力自 2013 年开始投资智能制造。金湾工厂整合了珠海公司所有的技术优势，成为格力智能制造能力的母工厂。</p>
<p>为了克服软件不兼容、数据连接问题和部门标准不一致等初始挑战，格力与多所中国大学和研究机构合作，建立了工业互联网平台，陈华东表示，所有系统的连接和顺畅沟通花费了一到两年的时间。</p>
<p>金湾工厂在自动化、数字化和网络化方面的升级为全面智能化运营奠定了基础，使整个价值链的协调管理成为可能。</p>
<p><strong>效率提升</strong></p>
<p>陈华东表示，格力的金湾工厂总投资 150 亿元人民币（21 亿美元），设计年产空调 1230 万台，年产值 180 亿元人民币。这两条试点生产线已经运营了两年。</p>
<p>陈华东表示，工厂的第一阶段项目今年实现了盈亏平衡。得益于其智能制造网络，新产品的开发周期缩短了近一半，生产效率几乎提高了三倍，库存周转加快了 36%。</p>

格力电器

<p>格力电器在其珠海工厂推出了一条完全无人化的生产线，目标是生产机器人制造的空调。这种智能生产模式将扩展到其他格力工厂，提升自动化和效率。该工厂使用超过 2000 台机器人，减少人工工人，将自动化水平提升至 80%。人工智能取代了人工检查，提高了生产速度和质量。金湾工厂的投资达到 150 亿元人民币，目标是每年生产 1230 万台空调，提高效率并缩短开发周期</p>

<p>(Yicai) Dec. 11 -- Gree Electric Appliances is set to launch a fully unmanned third production line at its intelligent factory in Zhuhai, southern Guangdong province, paving the way for future Gree air conditioners to be manufactured and packaged entirely by robots, the general manager of one the Chinese home appliance maker’s subsidiaries told Yicai.</p>

</div><p>The factory’s smart production model will gradually be rolled out to Gree’s other 13 air conditioning production bases across China, as well as to its factories that make other products, said Chen Huadong, general manager of Gree Electric Appliances (Zhuhai Jinwan), which operates the plant.</p>

</div><p>The smart factory, which began operations in 2023, currently has two automated production lines. Robots and smart equipment dominate the factory floor. The two lines together use over 2,000 industrial robots, cutting the number of human workers per line from the usual number of more than 70 to just over 20 and boosting automation to 80 percent.</p>

</div><p>Processes such as loading components, welding, installing parts and testing are all automated, Yicai noted during a site visit. Even tasks like sticking on product labels and packaging are done by robots. When the robot places an air conditioner into a box its bionic hands even give the boxes a good shake to ensure the product fits snugly.</p>

</div><p>By integrating vision and sensing technologies, along with the use of system algorithms and large language models, the factory's robots seem to have eyes, ears and hands, said Production Line Manager You Yicheng. For example, the robot that tightens screws can decide how it will operate and independently retrieve the data it needs during production.</p>

</div><p>AI has replaced manual inspections in the factory, You said. More than 300,000 pieces of data were collected during two years of trial operations which were used to train the AI system to detect faulty sounds and unusual noises that could signal potential problems.</p>

</div><p>Gree began investing in smart manufacturing in 2013, Chen said. The Jinwan plant integrates all of the Zhuhai-based company's technological advantages and serves as the mother factory for Gree's intelligent manufacturing capabilities.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>陈华东表示，格力自 2013 年开始投资智能制造。金湾工厂整合了珠海公司所有的技术优势，成为格力智能制造能力的母工厂。</p>
</div><p>To solve the initial challenges of software incompatibility, data connectivity issues and inconsistent standards across departments, Gree worked with several Chinese universities and research institutions to build an industrial Internet platform, Chen said. It took one to two years to get all systems connected and communicating smoothly.</p>

</div><p>Gree's Jinwan factory, which has a total investment of CNY15 billion (USD2.1 billion), is designed to produce 12.3 million air conditioners a year with an annual output value of CNY18 billion, Chen said. The two pilot production lines have already been operating for two years.</p>
