Five sets of fully Automatic Unwinding and Reel Replacement units in Xinjiang successfully put into production

    As winter deepens in northern Xinjiang, the region's industrial upgrading momentum continues to surge. Recently, a key industrial park in Xinjiang was filled with festive cheer as five new intelligent mulch film production units from Guanhua Plastic Machinery Factory – featuring fully automated uncoiling and re-coating capabilities – completed debugging and commenced production. This project not only fills a technological gap in fully automated production within the region but also sets a new benchmark for industry efficiency through its innovative "5 machines manned by 5 operators, reducing workforce to 3 after training". The breakthrough injects strong momentum into the high-quality development of Xinjiang's manufacturing sector.   

At the smart production workshop in the operational site, the reporter observed five fully automated units running at high speed in an orderly manner. From the precise feeding of raw material coils, automatic uncoiling during processing, to the standardized reassembly of finished coils, the entire workflow requires no direct human intervention. Operators can complete full-process control simply by monitoring equipment data in real-time through the control system. According to the project's technical lead, this fully automated machine tackles the pain points of traditional units—requiring multiple operators and time-consuming coil replacement—with advanced intelligent sensing and precision control technology. The entire uncoiling and reloading process is fully automated, reducing manual labor by over 70% per coil change compared to conventional equipment. With a comprehensive utilization rate exceeding 99%, it effectively eliminates waiting losses and manual monitoring tasks inherent in traditional production methods. The high-efficiency production model is underpinned by significant optimization of labor costs. The project operations manager noted that the current five fully automated units now require only five staff members, primarily responsible for core management tasks such as equipment monitoring and product stacking. As operators gain proficiency with the equipment, the workforce will be further streamlined to enable three personnel to complete all unit operations.

This workforce optimization reduces labor intensity compared to traditional unit configurations, cutting labor costs by over 60%. By minimizing manual intervention points, the product pass rate has been elevated to over 99.8%, achieving dual improvements in both efficiency and quality. The newly commissioned fully automated coil unloading and reassembly system incorporates multiple advanced intelligent control technologies, capable of processing coils of various specifications. With notable advantages including stable operation, low energy consumption, and easy maintenance, this equipment achieves a production speed of 6 tons per day. Upon project commissioning, it is expected to add 900 tons of monthly production capacity, effectively alleviating supply-demand pressures for related products in the region while driving the local industry's transition from "traditional manufacturing" to "intelligent smart manufacturing". A local government official stated that the successful commissioning of this fully automated production line project serves as a vivid demonstration of cultivating new quality productivity in the region. It will further drive coordinated upgrades across upstream and downstream industries, helping to build more competitive industrial clusters. Moving forward, efforts will focus on continuously optimizing the business environment, supporting enterprises in technological innovation and intelligent transformation, enabling more smart equipment to take root and thrive. This will provide solid support for the high-quality development of Xinjiang's economy.
