On October 14th, 2022, Fastems and Makino Machine Tools (China) Co., Ltd. hosted a celebration of the delivery of the central tool automation system and an experience of the high-end flexible manufacturing line in our company. The Consul General of the Consulate General of Finland in Shanghai, Ms. Ji-Anno, Dr. Mika, Consul for Trade and Innovation of the Consulate General of Finland in Shanghai, and more than 100 guests from the industry participated in the celebration and exchange of ideas.



Our manufacturing department automation line team leader Li Hongji, for everyone to do automation line technology sharing. Mainly introduced the Fastems automation line commonly used standard fixtures; before the automation line, Makino double pallet equipment working status; automation line phase I, Makino and automation line multi-pallet working status; automation line phase II, Makino and automation line multi-pallet as well as the central knife magazine working status; and automation unmanned workshop exploration.



Our general manager Li Jian, as the initiator of the automation project, shared with the guests from four aspects.

1、Why take the road of automation line.

2、Why choose the centralized tool magazine.

3、Why choose Fastems automation line

4、Cautions to choose the automation road to reduce unnecessary detours.



Mr. Li recalled his father, the old generation of machining craftsmen, they can be in the absence of three coordinates, no advanced machines, with the process of breaking down the tooling, boring machine to make precision parts used in aircraft. Adhering to the reverence for technology, Mr. Li always sticks to the first line of concentration and technology. thirty years since the establishment of New HongJi, from the beginning of ignorance, to today's corporate culture, technology, processes, systems on the formalization and creation, which is exactly beyond the self a spiritual pursuit.

As a technology-driven boss, I like good testing equipment, processes, automation, and am always curious about technological innovation. But technology iteration takes time, how to carry on the heritage and breakthrough is the challenge we face. Mr. Li identifies that if we don't take this road of automation line now, there will be no way out in the future, because the peak is right in front of us. Need an opportunity to make a second innovation leap.

In 2019, Mr. Li visited the Kampf factory in Germany. They are very focused on the product, and with the rich experience accumulated in the past and the existing automation line technology, they can achieve the same price for 1 and 1,000 parts. Multiple varieties and small batches go on, and it is necessary to go up to the centralized tooling warehouse. This trip has strengthened Mr. Li's determination to go on the central tool magazine.

Automation line in the company's input, but also the original Lai times the respect of the technical staff will be lost. It is difficult to adapt to the psychological gap from heroes to mortals. If you decide to automate, it is recommended that the boss personally selects the model and pays attention to the task nodes and resource support. Only spend money to buy in can not realize automation. At the same time, there is no standardization, systematic process, automation line is also impossible to achieve. ERP \ QMS software, with the concept of digitalization of the enterprise, on the automation line will have a higher probability of success.



The delivery celebration of the central tool automation system was successfully held in the afternoon of the same day. Mr. Li, together with Ms. Anu Vuori-Kiikeri, Consul General of the Consulate General of Finland in Shanghai, Dr. Mika, Head of the Shanghai Office of the Finnish National Agency for the Promotion of Business, Consul for Trade and Innovation of the Consulate General of Finland in Shanghai, and a number of guests, cut the ribbon of the ceremony.
