The food industry is an important pillar industry of the national economy and also a basic industry that safeguards people's livelihood. With the rapid development of the food processing industry, the demand for food machinery is increasing day by day, and the growth rate has always maintained a relatively high level.
As a mature industry, the food machinery industry has already formed a relatively complete industrial chain, opening up all links from the supply of raw materials in the upstream to the application market in the downstream. Driven by the continuous development of the food machinery industry, the mechanization level of the food industry has gradually increased, but it has not yet got rid of the disadvantage of "high labor cost".
In recent years, with the strengthening of international food trade cooperation, the degree of mechanization and standardization of the food industry has significantly improved.
Analysis on the Future Development Trend of the Food Machinery Industry
With the rapid development of the economy and society, people's demand for food and their requirements for its quality are constantly rising, which has brought huge market space and development opportunities for the food machinery industry.
The continuous growth in the demand for packaged food will drive the growth of the food robot market scale. In order to maximize the shelf life and meet the demand for ready-to-eat products, the demand for packaged food is constantly increasing. The large-scale production of packaged food has promoted the development of the food robot market.
Currently, robots that can be applied in food production include processing robots, sorting robots, packaging robots, palletizing robots and so on. As the names imply, food processing robots are mostly used in the food processing links, sorting robots are mostly used in the sorting links, packaging robots are responsible for packaging, and palletizing robots are responsible for palletizing. Different technical principles determine the different production areas they are responsible for, bringing different production solutions for manufacturing enterprises.
With the increasing maturity of advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things, big data, cloud computing and 5G, many places have introduced AI visual recognition technology in the construction of the "transparent kitchen" project to further ensure that food processing complies with production requirements. It is understood that AI visual recognition technology has achieved the synchronous detection of camera snapshots and AI models. While saving manpower and improving efficiency, it has also enhanced supervision efficiency and effectively ensured food safety.
Intelligent technologies have been widely used in the control systems of baking machinery. Intelligent electronic control components can effectively connect the individual baking machines, which can not only improve production efficiency but also bring out the potential of the machinery itself. For example, new intelligent devices currently on the market, such as highly intelligent numerical control systems, encoders and digital control components, have also been widely applied to packaging machinery and equipment. These intelligent devices can be more independent, flexible, accurate in operation, highly efficient and compatible during the operation process.
