Yangzhou ANTIL Attends Sichuan Kaituo's New Plant Opening Ceremony, Exploring a New Chapter in Intelligent Manufacturing for the Sheet Metal Industry

On October 28, 2025, the "Sichuan Kaituo Electric Co., Ltd. New Plant Opening Ceremony" was grandly held in Mianyang, the City of Science and Technology. The event was themed "Pooling Strength for Precision Intelligent Manufacturing, Empowering Industrial Upgrading." Yangzhou ANTIL Automation Technology Co., Ltd. was invited to attend as a major supplier and partner for its large-scale automated production lines. Together with numerous industry partners and elites, we gathered to celebrate this milestone.

At the high-quality development forum, numerous industry experts and enterprise representatives assembled. Centering on the theme "New Intelligent Manufacturing 'Sheet' Map, Data-Driven Path to Winning by 'Quality'," they delved into key issues for the sheet metal industry such as innovative operations, cost control, and technological upgrades, sharing cutting-edge insights and practical experience to chart the course for the industry's development.

Yangzhou ANTIL Automation also delivered a keynote speech titled "Automation is the Inevitable Path for Sheet Metal Processing." The speech immediately pointed out the severe challenges currently faced collectively by sheet metal processing enterprises.

In recent years, labor costs in the sheet metal industry have risen rapidly, and the "demographic dividend" is quickly diminishing. Enterprises not only face difficulties in recruiting workers but also see increasingly high employee retention costs, which directly erodes profit margins and places significant pressure on stable operations.

The era of large-scale, standardized orders is gradually fading, while fragmented orders characterized by "small batches, multiple varieties, and fast delivery times" have become the new industry norm. This imposes unprecedented high standards on production flexibility, response speed, and quality management. Enterprises that fail to adapt promptly risk being eliminated by the market.

Confronting this with the dual pressures of "rising costs and fragmentation," Yangzhou Ant believes that automation is no longer just a "value-added feature" for large enterprises to enhance efficiency, but a "survival baseline capability" that all sheet metal enterprises must build. In the past, companies may have invested in automation with a long-term vision in mind. Today, failing to embrace automation likely means losing competitiveness in cost control and delivery capabilities, ultimately leading to elimination from the market. This is precisely the essential path for enterprises to move toward "winning through quality."

The following day, all the attending guests visited the Sichuan Kaituo plant to gain on-site understanding of its production processes and advanced technologies. The application results of the automation solutions provided by Yangzhou ANTIL in actual production received unanimous praise from visitors, who fully affirmed the advanced nature and practicality of its technology, further solidifying Yangzhou ANTIL's strong reputation within the industry.

As the core automation production line supplier for Kaituo Electric's new plant, Yangzhou ANTIL was deeply involved in the planning and construction of its fully automated production lines. This ceremony served both as a congratulations to our partner on opening this new chapter and as a demonstration of the results achieved through our joint commitment to "Precision Intelligent Manufacturing."

Looking ahead, Yangzhou ANTIL will continue to uphold its "customer-centric" philosophy, bringing more advanced technologies and mature solutions to sheet metal enterprises across the country. We will join hands with our partners to succeed in the new era of smart manufacturing and collectively draw an even more magnificent blueprint for intelligent manufacturing.
