Recently, a research team from the Industry Digitalization Professional Working Department of the Wire & Cable Branch of China Electrical Equipment Industry Association (CEEIA) visited Qrunning Cable to conduct a special survey and exchange on the digital transformation, information technology construction, and intelligent manufacturing implementation of wire and cable enterprises for the year 2026. The research team was led by Ling Chenggang, Deputy Secretary-General of the Wire & Cable Branch of CEEIA, Secretary-General of the Industry Digitalization Professional Working Department, and Director of the Information & Exhibition Center of Shanghai Electric Cable Research Institute (SECRI). The team also included experts from leading industry enterprises such as Zhongtian Technology, Far East Smart Energy, Baosheng Shares, Zhejiang Wanma, Hanhe Shares, and Jiangsu Shangshang Cable. Company leaders Xu Junfeng and Chen Yang, IT Director Lin Ling, and other relevant business managers attended and accompanied the research team during the visit.
The research team first toured the company’s exhibition hall and 5G intelligent workshop, followed by an in-depth face-to-face discussion. During the meeting, the company comprehensively reported its digital construction achievements to the research team, covering topics such as the company’s information technology development history, core system construction, digital-intelligent production control, full-process quality traceability, warehouse logistics digitization, and green energy management. The company initiated its information technology construction in 2008, and in 2019, it fully established a digital management system across its entire business chain. Leveraging the deep integration of systems such as ERP, MES, CAPP, QMS, and PLM, combined with 5G, the Internet of Things (IoT), intelligent equipment, and data acquisition technologies, the company has built an efficient and collaborative digital workshop. To date, the company’s two production bases have been successfully recognized as Ningbo Municipal Digital Workshops, and its digital-intelligent construction level has been acknowledged by both the government and the industry.
The research team experts spoke highly of Qrunning Cable’s solid progress in digital transformation, deep system integration, lean production control, and effective solutions to industry pain points. The two sides engaged in in-depth discussions on key issues such as the pain points and difficulties in digital construction of the wire and cable industry, the adaptation path between industry characteristics and digitalization, deep integration of IT and OT, digital transformation of business processes, upgrading of digital-intelligent management models, and the application of artificial intelligence technology in manufacturing enterprises. They shared practical experiences, exchanged solutions, and explored new directions, providing highly valuable references for the company’s next phase of digital deepening construction.
This research exchange not only served as a review and guidance for Qrunning Cable’s digital-intelligent construction efforts but also as a valuable opportunity to benchmark against and learn from top industry players. Through face-to-face communication and experience sharing, the company further clarified its digital transformation direction, broadened its thinking on intelligent manufacturing applications, and laid a solid foundation for subsequent optimization of system collaboration, advancement of data-driven processes, exploration of AI and big data applications, and improvement of flexible production and lean management levels.
In the future, Qrunning Cable will take this research opportunity as a catalyst to continue deepening its efforts in the field of digital-intelligent manufacturing, deepen the full-scenario integration of information technology and production operations, continuously enhance its intelligent, green, and lean manufacturing capabilities, and strive to contribute more practical experience and exemplary strength to the high-quality digital transformation of the wire and cable industry.
