Why ABB Robots Choose Qingdao?
Qingdao is one of China's most famous home appliance industry clusters, forming a complete home appliance industry chain, and R&D and innovation capabilities are also increasing. At the same time, as a leading city in the economic province of Shandong, Qingdao's other manufacturing sectors are also thriving and enjoying a good momentum. . In recent years, Qingdao is committed to creating the largest robotic industrial center in the north, and Qingdao Hi-tech Zone, as a national high-tech zone, has the ability to participate in global competition. For ABB robots that thrive in the Chinese market, setting up an ABB Robotics Application Center in Qingdao High-tech Zone is undoubtedly significant. In addition, ABB hopes to leverage Qingdao to build the largest robotic industrial center in the north and radiate the northern market.
ABB Robot Qingdao Application Center What to do?
ABB Robots Qingdao Application Center will be the first application center established by ABB robots in the north. To put it plainly, the most important thing for the center is two things: providing technology and training talents.
The establishment of the application center can provide faster, more thoughtful and comprehensive services for customers in Qingdao and its surrounding areas; it can also tailor the most suitable robot application solutions for customers based on the industrial characteristics of Qingdao; ABB will also collaborate more closely with local institutions in the basic application and talent development of the robotics industry and work together to cultivate robot application talents.
In order to gain a firm foothold in the increasingly fierce domestic market and international market, most corrugated cartons are gradually adjusting their service targets to improve traditional corrugated boxes and develop new products and new varieties. The traditional service objects of corrugated boxes are outer packaging and transport packaging. They should develop innovative spirit with the scientific and technological development concept and develop and develop innovative corrugated paper packaging. For example: Development of corrugated paperboard trays, honeycomb paperboard, supermarket shelves, cushioning materials, office supplies, paper toys, paper furniture, etc., to expand the application of corrugated paper products.
At the same time, the carton industry will expand to the fields of paper substitute, paper substitute, paper substitute bamboo, paper generation metal cans, and paper substitute bottles. Circular economy and green packaging are the development priorities of the national packaging industry because they can fully utilize resources, protect the natural environment, and benefit the country and the people. Paper packaging belongs to green packaging, which not only has value in use, but also has recycling and recycling value. It fully meets the requirements of circular economy and green packaging. With the emphasis placed on environmental protection by the whole society, carton carton will be more widely used by consumers and consumers. Favor. Therefore, the corrugated box industry should seize this favorable opportunity to expand the carton carton customers.
Change from packaging to utility
As a new type of environmentally friendly paper packaging product, the folding box has a wide range of applications. It makes the goods beautiful and easy to carry, and is deeply loved by consumers.
At present, the international market is very popular folding box packaging, and its promotion has a certain role in promoting the standardization and standardization of China's market goods. The small-scale assembly folded box is mainly used for food, health products, fruits, vegetables, eggs, frozen aquatic products, small household appliances, instruments, toys and other small, light weight commodity packaging. This new type of packaging box has many varieties and can play a good role in protecting the product.
Visible, the future of the carton industry is very broad, the majority of carton manufacturers should follow the trend of the times in order to win the opportunity to achieve the leap-forward development of the company. However, it is not easy to want to occupy a place in the highly competitive carton market. This requires strong talent support and technical support.
The lack of talent has become an important factor that restricts the development of the corrugated paper box industry in China. It is urgent to cultivate a group of high-level professional and technical talents and business personnel. According to the development status of China's corrugated paper box industry, the training of senior professional and technical talents and business talents can take “binaryâ€, that is, some of them go into colleges and universities to carry out special training, and the other part takes enterprises as the main body and carry out the process of developing technological innovation projects. talent development. This approach may be more suitable for the actual business, and the effect will appear more quickly. At the same time, we must also step up the construction of packaging education and training bases so that more corrugated box enterprises can establish direct links with institutions of higher learning and scientific research institutions, and quickly convert advanced scientific research results into medium-experienced trials and turn them into productive forces.
In addition to speeding up the construction of professionals, we must also vigorously improve the level of corrugated box machinery manufacturing, which is the basis for the development of corrugated box industry. Although in recent years, the level of corrugated paperboard machinery manufacturing in China has been rapidly improved and developed, there is still a certain gap between it and the international advanced level. We must strive to learn advanced foreign technologies and focus on the development of "high, fine, sharp" corrugated box machinery. On the international advanced level.
The corrugated board production line must be developed in the direction of wide width, high speed, finishing, and full automatic. Two of these are particularly noteworthy: First, the corrugated board production line must be equipped with micro-corrugated board production capacity, which lays the foundation for the development of micro-corrugated cardboard; second, it must implement the State Council’s “significant instructions for the packaging and material substitution of mechanical and electrical products.†The 3A heavy-duty corrugated cardboard production line suitable for electromechanical products fills the domestic gap.
In addition, greenization, automation, digitalization, and intelligence have become the trend in the development of the paper packaging industry at home and abroad. Packaging and printing companies need to integrate the advantages of their own resources according to the needs of the product packaging market, and conduct in-depth analysis to understand the needs of different users. Rationally use traditional automatic packaging and printing technologies, innovative technologies, digital packaging and printing technologies, and innovative packaging and creative design technologies to open up new markets for product packaging and printing, and focus on tapping the gold mines of packaging products for mid- to high-end products in individual industries. Become a community of fate.
The development of China's carton industry is facing tremendous changes. This change has brought tremendous challenges to our carton industry, but it also provides us with an opportunity to upgrade and transform. Grasping the development trend of the corrugated paper box industry and tapping new profit growth points is an inevitable choice for enterprises to break away from the “Red Sea†and seek long-term development.
