ZTE’s Binjiang Factory integrates 5G, AI, robotics, and a real-time digital twin to drive advanced automation, connecting over 150,000 data sources and generating 120+ TB daily. The factory supports 126 applications, from machine vision AOI inspections—cutting over-inspection rates by 61%—to AI-optimized scheduling, AGV logistics, and intelligent robotics for cable handling and testing. Results include a 39% shorter supply cycle, 27% lower energy use, and 74% higher per capita output. AI-powered planning improved material readiness by 58% and cut scheduling time by 80%. ZTE aims to replicate this “smart bionic organism” model across other industries, setting a benchmark for intelligent manufacturing.
