From Made in China to Made in China, the growth footprint represented by Shen Ziyu and Xu Hualong is a microcosm of the new generation of equipment manufacturing workers pursuing the spirit of craftsmanship, and it also reflects the vigorous trend of enterprises driving high-quality development through digital transformation.

Shen Ziyu and Xu Hualong are training hard

"Finally, I didn't let everyone down, and I didn't let myself down!" Facing reporters, 23-year-old Shen Ziyu said with emotion. In the finals of the 4th National Intelligent Manufacturing Application Technology Skills Competition, which will end in December 2021, Shen Ziyu and his partner Xu Hualong, who is 10 years older than him, completed the competition for 5 consecutive hours with zero mistakes, and finally won the application technology of precision mold intelligent manufacturing system Project champion. This also allowed Shen Ziyu and his partner Xu Hualong, who had joined the Excavation Machinery Division of XCMG Construction Machinery Co., Ltd. for less than two years, to win the honorary title of "National Technical Expert" in one fell swoop.

Behind the halo is the unremitting daily life. The two young people, the combination of operator and craftsman, are the representatives of XCMG's army of "digital craftsmen" in the new era. In 2020, Shen Ziyu graduated from Jiangsu Safety Technology Vocational College and entered XCMG, becoming an operator of CNC machining center. He was called a "little craftsman" by his teachers and classmates when he was a student, and he secretly made up his mind on the first day on the job: he must do it well. He studied hard, actively put forward suggestions for improvement, actively solved technical problems, and quickly stood out. After the gradual job training in the workshop, the company included him in the third echelon of high-skilled talents and became a key training target.

Seeing that the masters with honors such as "National Technical Expert" and "National Youth Post Expert" have always maintained their enthusiasm for climbing the peak and forging ahead, Shen Ziyu secretly made up his mind: he must be as strict, practical, progressive and innovative as them. , play a key core role in the post!

"The more complex the shape of the product, the higher the machining accuracy, and the greater the difficulty factor." Shen Ziyu, who knows that "CNC" is a highly precise technical job, can now not only operate all vertical, horizontal, and CNC machines in the workshop The double-sided boring and milling machining center equipment is also proficient in program theory and equipment principles, and constantly improves operation skills and improves operation accuracy.

The growth of Xu Hualong, who is not a professional, is due to the company's vigorous promotion of the "Intelligent Manufacturing 4.0" factory construction. He continued to study and designed automatic process equipment that integrates functions such as pressure monitoring and early warning, automatic measurement and alignment. At the same time, Xu Hualong led the team to meet the needs of digital development, developed the anti-deformation control "wave milling" processing technology, designed special eccentric reverse milling tools, improved more than 20 sets of process equipment, applied for 6 patents, and won the 2020 XCMG "Advanced Individual" "title.

At present, intelligent manufacturing calls for "digital craftsmen", and calls for the integration of the digital skills of "four ounces and one thousand pounds" and the craftsman spirit of "tens of thousands of hammers into one tool". With the maturity and application of new-generation information technologies such as 5G, artificial intelligence, digital twin, and big data integration, XCMG is realizing lean, green, and high-end intelligent manufacturing with less labor, automation and flexibility. "We are not traditional workers or scientists, but pioneers in the digital age."

Shen Ziyu and Xu Hualong believe that it is necessary to continuously promote the integration and innovation of traditional industries and the Internet through digital technology and teamwork, and cultivate "digital craftsmen" and new outstanding engineers who are proficient in both professional skills in the industry and digital skills.

Shen Ziyu and Xu Hualong are working together

They are high-spirited and sober and confident. "Championship is just an honor in life, and XCMG's intelligent manufacturing is my broader stage." Xu Hualong said. Shen Ziyu said: "With the continuous upgrading of intelligent manufacturing, as a front-line worker, I will continue to improve myself, help more people improve their skills, and contribute wisdom to the development of enterprises."
