China’s advanced manufacturing industry showed signs of resilience last year, despite the impact of Covid-19, according to an executive at the World Economic Forum.
Over the past year, the advanced manufacturing industry faced multiple challenges, including some related to labor force, production load, and logistics, said Wu Tong, the executive in charge of China’s advanced manufacturing business at the World Economic Forum. It was exactly at that point that the country’s advanced manufacturing and corresponding supply chains showed their capabilities and resilience, she added.
Eighteen new lighthouse factories were recognized as part of the global lighthouse network last year, eight of which are in China, according to a white paper published by the WEF and its consulting partner McKinsey on Jan. 13. There were 132 lighthouse factories in the world as of the end of 2022, 50 of which were in China, making the country the one boasting the highest number of lighthouse factories.
Lighthouse factories are production facilities that use industry 4.0 technologies, including artificial intelligence and the internet of things, in their daily operations.
In the past, people believed that China was a large manufacturing hub, not a strong one, Wu explained. “But now we are confident that China’s manufacturing sector has gained the world’s top rankings in some segments, no matter if it comes to the information technology structure, operating technology structure, or ways of management.”
Lianbao (Hefei) Electronic Technology, a unit of Lenovo Group, operates the Chinese personal computer maker’s industrial facility in Hefei, Anhui province, that was recently added to the list of lighthouse factories. It is the world’s biggest PC plant, requiring the production of a great number of small batches, as well as complex planning.
Through innovative digital applications, the facility shortened the time needed to plan by 67 percent, reduced the inventory of structural parts and components by 50 percent, and improved production efficiency by 45 percent, said Ding Xiaohui, chief executive of Lianbao. Every half a second, a laptop rolls off the production line, he added.
Digital training can also effectively ensure the stability of key positions along the assembly line to achieve high-quality delivery under fluctuations in production capacity and workforce, Ding noted.
The World Economic Forum, also known as Davos Forum, is held in Switzerland between Jan. 16 and Jan. 20. It partnered with global management and consulting firm McKinsey to select leading companies that achieved outstanding performance in the application and integration of industry 4.0 technologies into the list of lighthouse factories in the manufacturing sector.
Shanghai to see breakthroughs in robotics by 2025

SHANGHAI -- Shanghai will see its robot density -- measured by the number of robots per 10,000 manufacturing workers -- in manufacturing increase by 100 in the next three years, local authorities said on Tuesday.
Robot density is a key indicator to measure the level of intelligent manufacturing. The metropolis will build a total of 20 city-level leading smart factories and 200 city-level smart factories by 2025, according to the Shanghai Municipal Commission of Economy and Informatization.
Shanghai is promoting the digital transformation of its manufacturing industry. In 2022, the annual output of industrial robots in Shanghai is expected to top 75,000 units, up 6 percent year-on-year, ranking first among Chinese cities, according to the commission's deputy director Tang Wenkan.
By 2025, Shanghai will strive to build 10 industry-leading robot brands and 100 demonstration application scenarios, with the scale of the robot-related industry reaching 100 billion yuan ($14.88 billion), Tang added.
According to Wu Chunping, an official with the commission, Shanghai is the first city in China to include robot density statistics. The robot density in Shanghai's key industries currently stands at 383, while the number in its major enterprises has reached 260, which is more than twice the global average.
