Established enterprises have delivered a "new answer sheet" in intelligent manufacturing!

The Song brocade dress worn by the hosts of the 2025 CCTV Spring Festival Gala was woven with jacquard machines developed and produced by enterprises in Changshu. The "Belt and Road Initiative" picture woven by high-end equipment from enterprises in Changshu has a pixel count over 30 times higher than that of 4K videos. Chinese-style fabrics are in high demand, and electronic jacquard machines from enterprises in Changshu are in short supply...

All these successful cases point to the same enterprise in Changshu

-- Changshu Textile Machinery Factory Co., LTD

This established enterprise was founded in 1958

Why on earth can it always lead the industry trend

Be active on the stage of The Times?

Suzhou Changfang Metal Technology Co., Ltd. is a subsidiary of Changshu Textile Machinery. In the company's workshop, the newly installed mechanical arm is constantly grasping the eccentric disc and precisely feeding materials. The core components produced on the assembly line will be used for the assembly of Changshu Textile Machinery's flagship product - the multi-arm opening device. Compared with ordinary mechanical arms that can only grasp from fixed positions, this 3D vision robot independently developed by a local enterprise in Changshu is smarter and more dexterous, and can accurately grasp disordered arranged parts.

It collects image data through 3D vision photography. You can input 100 samples, and then it can actively learn and finally form a 3D vision model, which can determine the position of the specific workpiece. Then send the data of this workpiece to the robotic arm, and the robotic arm can grasp it in a timely and accurate manner. This not only saves manpower but also improves efficiency and quality.

Changshu Textile Machinery specializes in the research and development and production of loom opening devices. It has successively won titles such as National Specialized, Refined, Unique and Innovative "Little Giant" and Provincial Enterprise Technology Center. Over the past nearly 70 years since its establishment, the enterprise has continuously strengthened technological innovation, filling the gap of opening devices for the rapier of shuttleless looms in China. After the new generation of rapier looms for jacquard looms without vertical shafts, which can weave Song brocade, a traditional Chinese fabric, was launched, orders have multiplied. In recent years, Changshu Textile Machinery has been actively promoting intelligent transformation, digitalization and Internet connection. Currently, two intelligent production lines have been built.

Chief Engineer of Changshu Textile Machinery Factory Co., LTD

According to the order requirements, we can achieve small-batch rapid line-changing production to improve the delivery rate of orders. We will further utilize digital twin technology to establish virtual models, conduct real-time mapping and analysis of physical entities, and optimize the production process.

The successful commissioning of 3D vision figurative robots and the rapid advancement of intelligent transformation, digitalization and network connection construction are attributed to Changshu Textile Machinery's deep commitment to the innovative genes of "Artificial intelligence +" and "intelligent transformation and digitalization".

Chairman of Changshu Textile Machinery Factory Co., LTD

Nowadays, many high-end airbags and high-end aerospace suits also require comprehensive improvements in our textile machinery. Such a macro environment demands that we face the market and the future even more. This creates more opportunities for us and is also our future development direction. Our textile machinery is no longer confined to traditional men's and women's fabrics, but has extended to every link. This requires us to innovate various technologies, concepts and ideas to achieve it.

Last June, after the "Chain Alliance" Shalong Changshu Textile Machinery Special event was held, China Telecom and Changshu Textile Machinery successfully connected and reached a cooperation agreement on the smart factory project. So far, they have achieved multiple results.

We have built the first 5G deterministic private network in the province for Changfang, with higher requirements for security and reliability. In terms of data collection for equipment, nearly 60 production devices have been networked so far. The data from these networked devices have been integrated into the data middle platform. In the future, some mining and application of these data can be carried out. In terms of smart logistics, the first phase involved the installation of five AGVs (Automated Guided Vehicles), which enabled the transportation of materials between certain production lines and various processes. The last part involves the construction of MES (Manufacturing Execution System) and PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) systems, which are mainly used in various production processes.

For many years, focusing on the research and development and production of key equipment, Changshu Textile Machinery has taken it as its responsibility to meet the needs of national and industrial development. It has benchmarking against leading international enterprises in the industry and made all-round innovations in terms of systems and mechanisms, scientific research and technology, management concepts, and distribution mechanisms.

Qian Chenhui

Chairman of Changshu Textile Machinery Factory Co., LTD

True innovation is a systematic innovation. The future goal of Changshu Textile Machinery is to become a respected leading enterprise. Strive to be the top enterprise in the domestic market.
