Development Practice and Breakthrough Path of China's Intelligent Manufacturing

Abstract

Intelligent manufacturing has become an unavoidable developmental trend in modern manufacturing and is the primary focus of the China Manufacturing 2025 Strategy. Moreover, it is the only method for China's manufacturing industry to go from large to strong. Investigating intelligent manufacturing breakthrough paths is critical for fostering the high-quality development of China's manufacturing industry and accelerating industrial transformation. It is also necessary to practice the "four orientations." In this paper, we investigated the development methods of intelligent manufacturing in China and summarize its essential characteristics based on strategic layout, pilot demonstration, industrial agglomeration, and stage determination. We also investigate the problems that exist in the development process. Currently, some of the standards, policies, technologies, talents, finance, and taxation for intelligent manufacturing cannot meet the developmental requirements of the new era. During the 14th Five-Year Plan period, targeted efforts focused on policy standards, core technologies, and supporting elements are required to foster high-quality growth of intelligent manufacturing. Specifically, China should strengthen its top-level design to improve its policy and standards system, optimize its strategic layout to achieve breakthroughs in core technologies, and improve the institutional guarantee and support of key elements.

Research on the Improvement Path of Total Factor Productivity in the Industrial Software Industry: Evidence from Chinese Typical Firms

“…Long Yuntao, Huang Tingting, and others (2021) analyzed the root causes of bottlenecks that restrict the development of domestic industrial software in China and proposed that improving the innovative ecological environment (intellectual property protection, government tax exemptions) can improve the development of industrial software [32]. When Zhou Yong, Zhao Dan, et al (2022) analyzed the development of China's industrial software industry, they believed that preferential tax policies, support for software trade, and other forms could enhance the development of China's industrial software [33]. When Guo Chaoxian, Miao Yufei, and others (2022) analyzed the current competitiveness level of China's industrial software industry, they proposed ways to increase government loan support, insurance subsidy support, application reward and subsidy support, and intellectual property protection to improve industrial software industrial development [25].…”

“…The development trend of the industry in foreign and domestic representative provinces (Jiangsu and Guangdong) was analyzed, and it was pointed out that the talent structure of industrial software practitioners is a key factor affecting the development of the industrial software industry [31]. When Zhou Yong, Zhao Dan, et al (2022) analyzed the breakthrough path of industrial software development, based on the development situation of China's industrial software industry, they believed that supporting the training of industrial software talents could improve the development of China's industrial software [33]. Guo Chaoxian, Miao Yufei, and others (2022) found that the competitiveness level of China's industrial software industry needs to be improved compared with European and American countries; they believe that paying attention to the talents of industrial software companies can improve the development level of the industrial software industry [25].…”
