智能制造是歐洲公司和研究機(jī)構(gòu)研發(fā)的核心問(wèn)題

疫情于2020年的春天開始，德國(guó)紡織機(jī)械見證了訂單量的驟減。許多公司不知道他們的用戶接下來(lái)會(huì)怎么做，因此訂單大多都被推遲或取消。自去年冬天，紡機(jī)的業(yè)務(wù)情況有所改善，即便如此，我們?nèi)匀幻媾R許多挑戰(zhàn)，例如下游供應(yīng)商的交貨和運(yùn)輸中端等可能被中斷。目前，德國(guó)仍處于封城的狀態(tài)，大多數(shù)公司都盡可能地讓員工在家工作。在辦公室或生產(chǎn)現(xiàn)場(chǎng)工作的員工也都需要采取安全措施。近來(lái)疫苗的接種取得了很大進(jìn)展，我們預(yù)計(jì)2021年下半年或?qū)⒒謴?fù)正軌。但生活肯定不會(huì)和大流行前一樣了。過(guò)去的日子發(fā)生了太多的變化，首當(dāng)其沖的肯定是數(shù)字化的工作方式。

這次紡機(jī)展共有50家德國(guó)和奧地利展商參加此次展會(huì)。VDMA的成員公司都可謂是行業(yè)的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)者。VDMA的成員公司經(jīng)營(yíng)范圍涵蓋了從紡紗到后整理的所有紡織機(jī)械，而這些機(jī)器都有他們各自的銷售市場(chǎng)。亞洲作為主要的目的地，占一半的市場(chǎng)。歐洲占銷售額的30%以上，美洲15%左右，非洲占5%。

紡織機(jī)械行業(yè)的經(jīng)濟(jì)前景在2020年底和2021年初明顯好轉(zhuǎn)。自2020年夏季以來(lái)，土耳其這一重要大宗市場(chǎng)的銷售一直非常好，很多業(yè)內(nèi)人士都對(duì)那里的前景充滿期待。在經(jīng)歷了2020年疲軟的一年后，印度市場(chǎng)時(shí)隔很久迎來(lái)回升，拉丁美洲的巴西也傳來(lái)了積極的信號(hào)，歐盟市場(chǎng)也再次回暖。

目前，智能制造是歐洲的公司和研究機(jī)構(gòu)研發(fā)的核心問(wèn)題。對(duì)于狀態(tài)監(jiān)測(cè)和預(yù)測(cè)性維護(hù)的解決方案，歐洲的機(jī)器制造商已經(jīng)找出了許多前沿的解決方案，包括遠(yuǎn)程服務(wù)。研發(fā)的重點(diǎn)還在于虛擬機(jī)器、可追溯技術(shù)、遠(yuǎn)程控制數(shù)據(jù)交換技術(shù)、智能及可自行優(yōu)化的用戶界面以及其他個(gè)性化的需求?？沙掷m(xù)性是紡織業(yè)乃至各個(gè)行業(yè)最為廣泛議論的話題，值得一提的是，與十年或十五年前相比，今天德國(guó)紡織機(jī)械所需要的能源減少了30%。

疫情當(dāng)前，只有少數(shù)的歐洲展商有機(jī)會(huì)參加此次展會(huì)，希望此次展會(huì)能夠吸引到眾多游客參觀，我們VDMA的成員公司期待著向參觀者們展示他們最新的技術(shù)和服務(wù)。中國(guó)是VDMA成員公司最重要的市場(chǎng)。中國(guó)紡織業(yè)在高效生產(chǎn)和數(shù)字化方面有著雄心勃勃的目標(biāo)。VDMA也是高效生產(chǎn)流程的推動(dòng)者，相信會(huì)是中國(guó)眾多公司邁向工業(yè)4.0的完美合作伙伴。

Intelligent manufacturing is a central issue in the R&D efforts of companies and research

Interview with Regina Brückner， Chairperson of VDMA

In the beginning of the crisis last spring time 2020， German textile machinery builders witnessed a big decrease in orders. Many customers did not know how their customers would behave and thus orders were postponed or cancelled. From last winter on， the business situation improved， but we are still facing a lot of challenges， e.g. delivery interruptions from sub-suppliers and shortness of transport possibilities. The country is still in lockdown mode and most companies offer their staff to work at home if possible. In the offices and production sites， safety measures apply. The vaccination campaign is making real progress， so hopefully the second half of 2021 will bring back some kind of normal life again. But we feel that life will never be the same than before the pandemic. Too many things have changed， first of all the digital way of working.

Almost 50 enterprises from Germany and Austria will exhibit in Shanghai. VDMA member companies are well known as technology and quality leaders. The VDMA member companies cover the full range of textile machinery from spinning to finishing. All machines in the textile chain have their markets. The main sales destination is Asia with a share of 50%. Europe accounts for more than 30% of the sales， the Americas around 15%， Africa roundabout 5%.

The economic outlook for the textile machinery sector brightened considerably at the end of 2020 and beginning of 2021. Sales in the important volume market of Turkey have been going extremely well since summer 2020 and market players continue to expect good business there. After a weak year in 2020， the Indian market picked-up after a long time， positive signals are also coming again from Latin America， e.g. from Brazil. The markets in the EU are also picking up again.

Intelligent manufacturing is a central issue in the R&D efforts of both， companies and research institutes in Europe. Machine builders from Europe already have cutting-edge and marketable solutions for condition monitoring and predictive maintenance， including remote services. A focus is also on virtual machines， traceability， remote control data exchange， intelligent and self-optimizing user interfaces or individualization. With regard to sustainability it is worth to mention the improvements in energy efficiency： German textile machinery of today need 30 % less energy compared to ten or fifteen years ago.

In times of COVID-19， only few people from Europe will have the chance to attend ITMA ASIA + CITME. The same is true for Asian visitors from outside China. But we hope that the number of domestic visitors will be strong. Numerous VDMA companies will be present at the fair and are looking forward to show visitors their technologies and services. China is the most important market for the VDMA member companies. The Chinese textile industry has ambitious goals with regards to efficient production and digitization. With their latest technologies， the VDMA companies are enablers of efficient production processes and the perfect partners for the next steps towards Industry 4.0.
