The challenges faced by the surface engineering industry bring great pressure to the industry while also bringing tremendous opportunities.

This is because China’s manufacturing industry to open a strong strategy for the timing, just with the world’s developed industrial industry to 4.0 the timing of the transition coincide.

This makes our country from industry 1.0 era has been in the backward status of the industrial sector, it is possible in this inflection point to achieve overtaking, and developed countries and the driving trend.

The transformation of the surface treatment industry has just caught up with this opportunity.

With the advent of the Industrial 4.0 era, some new intelligent industrial products enter the market. With the combination of automatic control and Internet technology, new industrial products are emerging,

From unmanned aerial vehicles to automatic driving to intelligent robots and so on, a large number of changes in traditional production and life mode of new products will be the future of industrial products in the normal.

And these new products have to use surface treatment technology without exception.

For example, without electroplating technology, these modern electronic products interconnection can not be achieved, some functions can not achieve perfection.

From the market point of view, both international and domestic have a clear layout. The planning of the area of the production capacity demand should be an important export opportunities.

The first hundred years of domestic goal of the realization of the need for domestic production capacity support, these are indicative of good market opportunities.

However, these opportunities are not for backward productivity, but for advanced productivity.

In the surface processing industry automation in the forefront of the automotive industry is the coating automation.

Because the automobile uses the machine hand to apply the automatic coating extensively, provides the good foundation for the automatic coating to the intellectualized development. It also provides a model for other industries to adopt intelligent robots.

However, a large number of products are still used in the painting of artificial spraying. The research and development of alternative artificial robots is actively advancing.

Another important industry in the surface treatment industry is the electroplating industry.

The degree of automation of electroplating industry in China is relatively low, even after the implementation of Electroplating industrial park system, equipment is still a bottleneck.

The park puts forward only the adoption of automatic line production enterprises to the standard, to promote electroplating automation has a positive role.

But these automatic lines are still strictly semi-automatic. The control of important process parameters and the addition of raw materials still require manual operation. The upper and lower hanging fixture also requires a lot of labor.

Therefore, it is an important task for the industry to develop the intelligent robot or electroplating production line for electroplating production.

It is not only the intelligent equipment, but also the green process, that is, the ⼒ force to develop environmentally friendly green surface engineering technology and technology, the elimination of pollution environment and waste resources of backward technology and technology.

The planning and investment of these subjects may be followed by the development of the fast track.

Therefore, the Industrial 4.0 era surface Engineering industry, is indeed an important development opportunities.

This, of course, depends first and foremost on whether there is enough strength to meet the challenges posed by technology and the environment.

To turn backward capacity into advanced productivity, we can seize the generational opportunity of the worldwide industrial transformation. And this process for the surface treatment industry, is the production equipment automation and intelligence.

This is both a challenge and an opportunity for a backward surface treatment industry.

Only to make the industry first to industrial 4.0 of the production model development, in order to produce the modern era of intelligent products.

More importantly, this opportunity is not only an industry, but also a whole society.

Hope that more people pay attention to the surface engineering industry, more students to learn and engage in this profession.

There are more units and enterprises to pay attention to the surface engineering field of investment, including research institutions and tertiary institutions of the relevant professional, can develop a lot of scientific research projects, so as to promote the surface engineering industry in China from the big turn strong, into the era of intelligence to make contributions.
