China High-end Precision Bearing Digital Intelligent Manufacturing Project Passes Acceptance, TMB Bearing Leads the Industry Towards Modern Intelligent Manufacturing

In June 2023, the annual output of 600,000 sets of high-end long-life precision bearings digital intelligent manufacturing project, which is listed as a demonstration project for the transformation of manufacturing mode in Zhejiang Province in the year of 2022, passed the completion inspection and acceptance in Zhejiang TMB Bearing Group Co. So far TMB Bearing has realized the digitalized intelligent manufacturing of high-end precision bearings in the whole process of on-line processing, testing and assembly, which has played a leading role in demonstrating the modern intelligent manufacturing for China’s bearing industry while helping the transformation of production and manufacturing mode in Zhejiang Province.

Zhejiang Tianma Bearing Group Co., Ltd. has always maintained the pursuit of high-quality development, adhere to the focus on the main industry, technological innovation, focus on building core competitive advantages, in China’s high-end precision bearings industry chain in the forefront. 2021 October, the company independently set up a project with an annual production capacity of 600,000 sets of high-end long-life precision bearings digitalization and intelligent manufacturing project, which was later included in the transformation of production and manufacturing methods in Zhejiang Province in 2022 Demonstration project plan.

The project has a total investment of 155 million yuan, the use of the company’s Deqing base has about 10,000 square meters of plant, the acquisition of intelligent CNC equipment, industrial software, information security systems, through modern information technology and advanced technology on the original equipment, production line implementation of digital technology upgrading and transformation, the creation of digital intelligent workshop. The company has carried out top-level design to optimize and explore the potential from the overall height, to maximize the enterprise’s production efficiency and management level. At the same time, it accelerates the construction of technology research and development platform and the integration and utilization of technology resources, and finally builds a domestic first-class high-end long-life precision bearing intelligent production line.

The project adopts the international advanced discrete intelligent manufacturing mode, on the one hand, accelerates the replacement of machines, improves the production capacity and quality, increases the production efficiency, improves the production environment and reduces the labor intensity of the workers; on the other hand, it effectively improves the utilization rate of energy and resources, pushes forward the energy saving and consumption reduction, green production, and enables the enterprise to transform into an environmentally friendly and saving type, and embarks on the modernized manufacturing industry of circular economy and sustainable development. At the same time, it imports intelligent manufacturing technology, combines new technical means such as the Internet and the Internet, and improves the level of product manufacturing. After the project is completed and put into operation, according to the horizontal comparison with the traditional grinding workshop, the production efficiency will be improved by 78%, the rate of defective products will be reduced by 72%, and the operation cost will be reduced by 60%, and the comprehensive indexes will reach the leading level in China, which is of good promotion value.

HAWOTE can supply all types of NTN bearings. Below is some part numbers for NTN spherical roller bearings.
