5G Technology Paves the Way for ZC Rubber

ZC Rubber has invested in 5G technology to promote data network platform innovation and data-driven production process reengineering. The technology will enhance the core competitiveness and corporate value through the processes of network collaboration, flexible production, and service extension, while creating a replicable 5G+ smart collaborative digital factory platform for the tyre industry.

Attending the meeting, Shen Jinrong, Chairman of the Zhongce Rubber Group, proposed to promote the transformation of data transmission, processing, and utilisation with the 5G low-latency advantages and to promote the technological revolution with digitisation.

The results have been overwhelmingly positive for ZC Rubber. ZC Rubber’s 5G Smart Factory has achieved a 50 per cent reduction in the product development cycle, a 15 per cent increase in production efficiency, a 40 per cent reduction in product defect rate, a 40 per cent reduction in loss rate, and a 5 per cent reduction in energy consumption. In addition, the 5G Smart Factory has changed the original labour-intensive model, and the number of operators has decreased by about 70 per cent compared with traditional factories.
