Wuxi Yimian:
Product upgrade opens up the pattern of trade globalization
With thousands of yarns and tens of thousands of cloths, the textile industry has always been considered a “low-end, inefficient, and surplus” traditional industry. However, Zhou Yejun, chairman of Wuxi Yimian Textile Group Co., Ltd., firmly believes that “old trees can also grow. New flowers, traditional equipment will be renewed through technology, and new business formats will grow.”
As early as 2001, Wuxi Yimian was the first in the industry to introduce the most advanced compact spinning technology in the world, and carried out exploration and practice of informatization and industrialization in the entire industry. After that, through digestion, transplantation, and independent innovation and improvement, the transformation of compact spinning technology expanded year by year. This achievement triggered an upsurge in the transformation of compact spinning technology in cotton textiles across the country. Wuxi No. 1 Cotton gradually became “the world’s largest compact spinning production base.” .
Based on compact spinning, Wuxi No. 1 Cotton has carried out research and development of “extra high count yarn” and achieved a number of technological innovations and inventions, especially the research and development and industry of “extra high count combed pure cotton single spinning compact spinning” Chemical Key Technology” research project won the 2014 “First Prize for Scientific and Technological Progress” issued by the China Textile and Apparel Industry Federation. The factory has become a high-tech enterprise in Jiangsu Province and a textile “National Engineering Practice Education Center” designated by the Ministry of Education. .
Continuously updated technologies have brought about continuous product upgrades, and also created favorable conditions for Wuxi Yimian to implement a global integrated trade strategy. In the domestic market, Wuxi Yimian focuses on developing batch benchmarking production and joining forces with outstanding and well-known domestic enterprises. In terms of entering the international market, Wuxi No.1 Cotton ranked first in the country in exporting combed cotton yarn to the EU in 2005. It further expanded into emerging markets such as India and Pakistan, and basically formed a Trade globalization marketing landscape.
In addition, Wuxi Yimian also has unique knowledge in informatization, digitalization and intelligentization. “It’s not about being smart for the sake of being smart, but starting from the intrinsic needs to actually solve the problems in our production process so that the company is dynamic and the products maintain vitality.” In Zhou Yejun’s view, it is important to promote informatization, digitalization, and intelligence. Transformation should be viewed dialectically, which can also be traced in the practice of Yi Mian.
In Wuxi Yimian, intelligent new equipment, renovated equipment and even old equipment coexist. This is also the result of the advancement of planning based on the characteristics of the industry, the positioning of enterprises and products, and existing basic capabilities.
Replacing old equipment with new intelligent equipment on a large scale can certainly lead to rapid transformation, but in Wuxi Yimian’s view, this will also bring about some problems.
The first is the cost issue. High equipment replacement costs will increase the burden on enterprises and affect the vitality of enterprises to a certain extent. In contrast, if the original old equipment can undergo some patchy modifications and spend less money to achieve goals such as improving production efficiency, reducing labor costs, and increasing output, then this is a more ideal way. .
Secondly, regarding product quality, for the textile industry, excellent product quality means everything, which also places high demands on equipment. If old equipment is ultimately eliminated in pursuit of informatization, digitization, and intelligence, products will lose their vitality and companies will lose their core competitiveness, which will deviate from the original intention of transformation. In this case, it is more appropriate to carry out digital transformation and upgrade based on the original equipment or to retain the original equipment and innovate the management method.
Under such a promotion strategy and model, Wuxi No. 1 Cotton has maintained product high quality while reducing worker labor intensity by 60%, increasing output by 15% to 20%, increasing production efficiency by 30%, and reducing labor costs. 40%.
