In the development of the national economy, machinery manufacturing has become an important pillar of industry, providing strong equipment support for society and improving productivity. With the improvement of mechanization level, automation technology is increasingly widely used, optimizing traditional manufacturing processes.

Mechanical manufacturing automation is becoming an important direction for future development. Studying its application in manufacturing will help improve efficiency and promote industry upgrading.

1 Mechanical Manufacturing Automation Technology

At present, mechanical automation has been widely used in manufacturing and has become an indispensable technology. It combines computers and mechanical manufacturing to improve the level of intelligence, reduce resource waste, and reduce the problems caused by manual operation.

1.1What are the advantages

At the same time, it has played a strong role in promoting the improvement of mechanical design and manufacturing efficiency and accuracy. In this case, it not only effectively reduces the labor force of the enterprise, but also reduces the labor cost for related mechanical manufacturing enterprises, realizes the growth of economic benefits, and effectively enhances the competitive advantage of the enterprise.

2 Importance of Mechanical Automation Application

2.1 Promote energy consumption reduction

Traditional mechanical manufacturing has low efficiency, high energy consumption, and is prone to failure during operation, affecting system stability. Mechanical processing requires a large amount of energy supply to ensure the normal operation of the equipment and reduce the occurrence of failures.

The application of automation technology can optimize equipment structure, reduce energy consumption, and improve operational convenience. Computer technology can achieve precise control, enhance production flexibility, and reduce environmental damage, which is in line with China’s green development concept.

2.2 Effectively improved safety and efficiency

Mechanical processing equipment is prone to safety accidents during use, and traditional manual operation has the risk of errors, and faults are difficult to detect in time. Maintenance requires professionals, which takes a long time and affects production progress. After the introduction of mechanical automation technology, combined with computer monitoring, the fault detection capability is improved and the problem location is accelerated. Maintenance personnel can quickly handle faults, ensure that the equipment resumes operation as soon as possible, and reduce production delays.

2.3 Effectively ensure production efficiency

The application of automation technology in mechanical manufacturing can achieve the unified design of production processes, reduce reliance on manual operation and inspection, and make the connection between various processes smoother. The overall production efficiency can be improved through automatic detection, automatic allocation of working hours, and automatic selection of processing methods.

In the automated manufacturing process, workers only need to set the relevant parameters of the machine tool or production line, and the equipment can complete the processing by itself. This simplifies the operation process and ensures that the production speed and efficiency are improved simultaneously.

2.4 Reduce the labor intensity of staff

Automation technology reduces the need for personnel, labor intensity, and work pressure while improving operational safety and making machining simpler and more convenient.

3 Main ways of applying mechanical automation

3.1 CNC manufacturing technology

CNC manufacturing technology is the core technology of mechanical manufacturing. By integrating electrical control, data analysis, sensors and other technologies into processing equipment, it provides accurate and efficient automatic execution capabilities. Compared with traditional manufacturing, CNC manufacturing improves efficiency, precision, and quality, and reduces processing time and manual labor. Combined with mechanical integrated manufacturing technology, a modern CNC manufacturing center can be built to provide all-round forming and manufacturing support for complex parts.

3.2 Intelligent Manufacturing Technology

Intelligent manufacturing technology is based on the development of CNC manufacturing technology, but it has the ability of human thinking and logical judgment. It can collect, analyze, and make decisions autonomously, respond to changes in working conditions and environment, and solve problems in production. Intelligent manufacturing provides a “brain” for equipment, freeing the manufacturing process from dependence on manual labor, and represents an advanced form of manufacturing technology.

3.3 Flexible Manufacturing Technology

With the development of my country’s economy and the expansion of the manufacturing industry, flexible manufacturing technology is widely used in the production lines of medium and large enterprises. It centrally controls equipment, automatically adjusts production paths according to functional classification, realizes the same-line manufacturing of multiple products, reduces the number of equipment purchased, and reduces costs and site consumption.

3.4 Simulation Manufacturing Technology

Simulation manufacturing technology uses computers to simulate the manufacturing process, avoiding trial production defects and waste of raw materials in traditional manufacturing, and reducing time consumption. Its application can shorten R&D time, improve product quality, and optimize the production process.

3.5 Fault Detection Technology

In traditional mechanical production, machine tool failure affects efficiency. To avoid failure, machine tools are equipped with sensors to monitor the operating status in real-time, warn of abnormalities, automatically shut down, and analyze the cause of the failure to improve the efficiency of solving the problem.

4 Conclusion

With the rapid development of China’s manufacturing industry, automation technology has significantly improved production efficiency, product quality and reduced costs, which is of great significance to the development of the industry.

However, the lack of advancement of mechanical equipment, incomplete coverage of automation technology, and untimely equipment updates have affected the technological advantages. Therefore, in addition to researching and applying automation technology, we should also pay attention to the popularization of technology and improve the cognition of practitioners so that automation equipment can be more widely used.
