ShenzhenJune 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Currently, China’s manufacturing industry is accelerating its transition toward digitalization, intelligence, and high-end development. As a national manufacturing hub, South China brings together advantageous industrial clusters such as 3C electronics, semiconductors, and new energy vehicles, continuously driving the rapid implementation of industrial automation and intelligent manufacturing technologies. At the same time, emerging technologies like artificial intelligence and big data are deeply penetrating key areas such as production control, equipment maintenance, and quality management, injecting new momentum into the high-quality development of the manufacturing sector.
From June 10 to 12, Omron once again appeared at the South China International Industry Fair (Booth No.: 9H-A036), focusing on on-site data utilization and intelligent manufacturing innovation. It showcased digital intelligent solutions and core technological achievements for high-end manufacturing, helping enterprises improve production efficiency, optimize quality management, and accelerate digital transformation.
Empowering On-Site Operations with Data to Reduce Costs and Boost Efficiency
Facing common challenges in digital transformation, such as information silos, insufficient management efficiency, and difficulty in quantifying improvement effects, Omron highlighted two key solutions: the i-BELT on-site data utilization service and the intelligent production management platform.
- i-BELT On-Site Data Utilization Service
Leveraging on-site data utilization and automation technology, Omron integrates data from processes, equipment, and personnel to break free from traditional experience-based approaches. Through data-driven human-machine collaborative improvements, enterprises can precisely identify production bottlenecks, quantify losses within processes, stabilize operational standards, and promote efficient linkage between business decisions and on-site optimization, continuously enhancing production capacity and quality levels.
- Intelligent Production Management Platform
The intelligent production management platform integrates functional modules such as production management, quality management, equipment management, and energy consumption monitoring, enabling real-time visualization of production status, equipment operation, and energy consumption data. This helps enterprises build a transparent, efficient, and lean operational system.
Additionally, Omron set up an interactive experience zone at the event, introducing two tools: “Production Site Maturity Assessment” and “ROI Investment Return Assessment.” These tools help enterprises quickly evaluate their digitalization levels and simulate transformation benefits, providing a reference for subsequent upgrade decisions.
Empowering High-End Manufacturing with Cutting-Edge Technologies
In response to trends such as the acceleration of semiconductor localization and the scaling of the new energy industry, Omron brought several key technologies and solutions tailored to high-end manufacturing scenarios, addressing the stringent requirements for process precision and operational stability in semiconductor and new energy production lines.
- Uniform Temperature Control Technology: By precisely controlling the heating process, this technology achieves uniform temperature distribution across workpieces and their surrounding environment, reducing temperature deviations by over 70%. This effectively improves product consistency and yield rates, making it widely applicable to fields such as wafer processing, injection molding, glass hot bending, and compression molding.
- AI Sensory Inspection: Omron applies AI technology to image processing, upgrading traditional human visual inspection to automated detection, with detection stability improved by up to 40 times. By learning normal product features to establish anomaly recognition models, this technology can stably detect and classify defects, providing robust support for enterprise quality management.
- Digital Predictive Maintenance: With a new “digital maintenance” solution, Omron achieves full automation of production equipment maintenance. Without relying on human senses, it automates craftsman-level maintenance techniques, accelerating the “status monitoring” of on-site equipment.
- Ultra-High-Speed Processing with Flight Control: By coordinating the PMAC-controlled processing platform with a galvanometer scanner, this technology enables continuous laser engraving of large patterns. Compared to traditional processing methods, it improves processing efficiency by approximately 35%, while effectively reducing splicing marks, enhancing product yield, and lowering material waste.
Rich Product Portfolio to Meet Diverse Needs
In addition to solutions and core technologies, Omron also showcased a diverse product lineup, including the ZP-L Series Laser Displacement Sensor, E3AS TOF Laser Sensor, push-button switches, and panel cabinet products.
With high-precision detection, strong anti-interference capabilities, and reliable performance, these products meet diverse needs for positioning, detection, and control in high-end manufacturing scenarios. They form an ecosystem synergy with Omron’s solutions, enabling rapid adaptation to various intelligent manufacturing requirements, from single machines to production lines and from components to systems.
In the second phase of its “Shaping the Future 2030” roadmap, Omron proposed transforming into a “GEMBA DX” enterprise to enhance corporate value. It is committed to cross-analyzing high-quality data obtained from existing advantageous equipment with other on-site data, leveraging years of accumulated on-site knowledge to convert it into valuable information, thereby contributing to solving on-site challenges. The various data services and technological applications showcased at this exhibition reflect Omron’s direction toward GEMBA DX, promoting the deep integration of “data + on-site + technology” to help enterprises achieve visualization, intelligence, and continuous improvement of production sites. Looking ahead, Omron looks forward to collaborating with more partners to innovate together, explore new models of intelligent manufacturing, and help the manufacturing industry achieve dual improvements in quality and efficiency.
