Ningbo forges role as economic powerhouse
China DailyCity's automatic production lines succeed in emphasizing smart manufacturing sector Renowned as a global trade city since the days of the ancient Silk Road thousands of years ago, Ningbo has been cementing its role as an economic powerhouse in the Yangtze River Delta region by emphasizing smart manufacturing. In an unlit room in the company's Ningbo East New Town premises, two automated production lines produce 500 batteries per minute. In addition to major projects like contributing sound systems for 12 of the 13 new venues built for the upcoming Asian Games in Hangzhou, Soundking's centralized command system can be used to manage smart factories. "In the production process, we have eliminated production technology and equipment with high energy consumption, high emissions and low efficiency," said Wu Hangdan, deputy general manager of Dafeng's international business division.
