Dairy industry leader! Feihe (06186) once again wins the Industry 4.0 award.

Recently, the highly anticipated ROI-EFESO Industry 4.0 Award winners list has been officially announced. The Gan Nan Factory and Jilin Factory under the Feihe Dairy Industry, with their outstanding practices and remarkable achievements in the field of intelligent production, stood out and successfully won the "Intelligent Factory" award of the ROI-EFESO Industry 4.0 Award. It is worth mentioning that Feihe (06186) is the first enterprise in the global dairy industry to win the Industry 4.0 Award, and has won this award twice in 2022 and 2024 respectively. This honor signifies that Feihe has already joined the international leading ranks in the journey of Industry 4.0, setting a benchmark for intelligent manufacturing in the dairy industry. Being the first in the dairy industry to win this award, Feihe has set an outstanding benchmark for "Intelligent Factory". Since its establishment in 2013, the ROI-EFESO Industry 4.0 Award has been an important benchmark in the field of international industrial digital transformation. The award focuses on industrial enterprises that have made breakthrough progress in factory processes, services, supply chain design, or sustainable development, with the core criteria for selection being the innovation and leadership of their Industry 4.0 solutions. The purpose of the award is to recognize the best practical solutions that have emerged in the context of industrial digitalization and to encourage more companies to steadfastly promote their digital transformation projects. Feihe's re-selection for this award undoubtedly provides strong evidence of its outstanding strength in the field of digital transformation. In the quality management sector, the Gan Nan Factory innovatively constructed a Quality Management System (QMS system) that cleverly integrates the application logic of multiple systems, enabling seamless data exchange. Through precise distribution of inspections, patrols, and other tasks, and the careful development of a series of risk management modules, combined with big data analysis, a solid guarantee has been provided for the first-pass qualification rate of products, greatly enhancing consumer satisfaction. In the equipment maintenance and milk powder production process, the Gan Nan and Jilin factories work closely together. By using devices such as vibration and temperature sensors for preventive equipment state detection, potential equipment risks can be detected early to develop accurate maintenance plans. The anti-mistake feeding system is connected to multiple key systems, implementing strict control from raw material acquisition to feeding to ensure "zero risk" in the production process. The digital operation system jointly created by the two factories has successfully broken information silos through the Data Middle Platform, deeply exploring the value of data, and providing strong support for management decision-making and frontline operations. This system covers multiple management modules, optimizing the overall production process and significantly improving the efficiency of the factories. In addition, the introduction of a big data analysis platform by the Gan Nan and Jilin factories enables deep analysis of production data, optimizing the entire process from raw material procurement to product distribution. Through early and accurate prediction of equipment failures and flexible and efficient allocation of resources, the production process is smoothly ensured without obstacles. Continuously deepening digitalization, guiding the trend of intelligent manufacturing in the dairy industry As early as 2022, Feihe successfully won the ROI-EFESO Industry 4.0 Award for the first time with its outstanding advantages in intelligent supply chain. This re-winning of the award is a high acknowledgment of Feihe's digital practice capability by the international community, and is also the result of Feihe's long-term deep cultivation in the field of digitalization. Over the years, Feihe has always upheld the goals of high technology, high efficiency, and high quality, carefully mapping out a digitalized blueprint for the full chain of infant milk powder. In terms of digital farms, Feihe currently has 13 farms, achieving digitized coverage of the entire breeding, calf, feeding, and milking processes. Feeding staff can now grasp the health status of each cow in real-time through a mobile phone. In terms of production, Feihe has significantly improved production efficiency through the "3 + 3 + 2" digital system, with a controlled feed accuracy error rate of less than 0.01%, and some products reaching consumers within 28 days of leaving the factory. In terms of research and development, through continuous technological innovation, Feihe has independently mastered key core raw material preparation technologies, achieved breakthroughs and production of technologies such as desalting whey and lactoferrin, and applied for multiple national invention patents in the field of process control. It has also established the first domestic automatic production line for lactoferrin, achieving localization of key technologies and breaking the foreign monopoly, promoting high-quality industry development with technological strength. "Digitalization," as a new force, is leading the development of new formats, models, services, and technologies. Following the establishment of the entire industry chain revolution model, Feihe has once again taken the lead in creating a digitalized blueprint for the entire chain of infant milk powder, setting a new benchmark for digitalization in the industry. Feihe has launched the Thousand Eye System, which creatively achieves millisecond-level online monitoring and cell-level online detection of the entire production process of milk powder internationally, making the products fresher, more uniform, and of higher quality. Starting afresh with once again winning the ROI-EFESO Industry 4.0 Award, Feihe's intelligent factory will continue to deeply explore technology, strive to contribute more innovative solutions and practical examples to the digital transformation of the dairy industry, and accelerate the vigorous development of new quality productivity in the dairy industry.
