AMT (Advanced Manufacturing Technology) is based on the traditional manufacturing industry, constantly absorbing the achievements of machinery, electronics, information, materials, energy and modern management technology, and comprehensively applying it to the whole manufacturing process of product design, manufacturing, inspection, management, sales, use and service, so as to realize high-quality, high-efficiency, low-consumption, clean and flexible production and improve the adaptability to the dynamic and changeable market. The current financial crisis may also give birth to new advanced manufacturing technologies, especially production management technologies.

Advanced manufacturing technology does not refer to the process method of processing, but spans multiple disciplines, including all related technologies in the whole product life cycle from product design, processing and manufacturing to product sales and customer service, involving design, technology, processing automation, management and special processing, and is gradually integrated and synthesized.

First of all, information technology plays an increasingly important role in the development of advanced manufacturing technology. Information technology promotes the modernization of design technology, the precision, rapidity and digitalization of molding manufacturing, the flexibility, integration and intelligence of automation technology, and the virtualization, networking and globalization of the whole manufacturing process. Second, the design technology is constantly modernized. The first is the modernization of design methods and means. Second, new design ideas and methods are constantly emerging. Such as concurrent design, "X-oriented" design DFX, robust design, reverse engineering technology and so on. The third is to develop to the whole life cycle design. Fourth, the design process, rapid modeling and design verification, from simply considering technical factors to comprehensively considering technical, economic and social factors. Thirdly, the forming technology is developing towards precision forming. The blank of manufacturing workpiece is developing from the shape close to the part to the direction of manufacturing workpiece directly, that is, precision forming. Precision casting technology, precision plastic forming technology, precision joining technology and other precision forming technologies will develop rapidly. Fourthly, processing technology is developing to ultra-precision, ultra-high speed and new generation manufacturing equipment. At present, ultra-precision machining has achieved sub-micron machining, and it is moving towards the era of nano-machining, and the processing materials have expanded from metal to non-metal; The ultra-high speed cutting speed of aluminum alloy has exceeded 1600m/min, and the ultra-high speed cutting speed of cast iron is 1500m /min.

Fifth, in order to meet the individual needs, the flexibility and reconfiguration of manufacturing technology, equipment and factories will become the remarkable characteristics of enterprise equipment. Advanced manufacturing technology, intelligent software, flexible automation equipment and flexible development strategy of enterprises constitute the software and hardware resources for future enterprise competition. Sixth, virtual manufacturing technology and network manufacturing technology will be widely used. On the premise of computer-supported simulation technology, virtual manufacturing technology forms virtual environment, virtual manufacturing process, virtual product and virtual enterprise, thus greatly shortening the product development cycle and improving the first success rate. On the Internet, LAN and Intranet, enterprises can form a dynamic alliance enterprise by placing orders with users anywhere in the world, designing and manufacturing in different places, and then manufacturing products in the production base nearest to users.

Seventh, intelligence and digitalization are the development direction of advanced manufacturing technology and electromechanical products. Injecting intelligent technology into advanced manufacturing technology and products can make them "intelligent" and can partially replace people's mental work. Using digital technology in the manufacturing process can greatly improve the flexibility and integration of the manufacturing process, thus improving the quality and efficiency of the manufacturing process and enhancing the market competitiveness of products.

Eighth, the manufacturing technology aimed at improving the quick response ability of the market will be rapidly developed and applied. The ever-changing market urges delivery time to become the primary factor in competitiveness. Therefore, many new concepts and technologies related to this will be rapidly developed and applied in 2 1 century. Representative technologies are: concurrent engineering technology, modular design technology, rapid prototyping technology, rapid resource reorganization technology and customized production mode.

Ninth, green manufacturing has become an important feature of manufacturing industry in 2 1 century. With the increasingly strict constraints of environment and resources, green manufacturing has been paid more and more attention. China's manufacturing industry should not only solve the problems of pollution and waste of resources in its own production process, but more importantly, provide the society with all kinds of products and environmental protection equipment that are pollution-free and resource-saving.

Enterprises in the 10th, 2nd/kloc-0th century are facing management innovation. Facing the rapid development of informationization, economic globalization and fierce market competition environment, it has changed the traditional concept and production organization mode of manufacturing industry and accelerated the development and innovation of modern management theory. Therefore, a "management revolution" is emerging all over the world.
