Jiangsu Muyang Group's "feed machinery production and research base" project was completed and put into operation recently, becoming the first world-class feed machinery research and production base.

It is reported that the project is planned according to world-class standards and the total investment exceeds 1 billion yuan. After the production, the world's feed machinery industry has taken the lead in implementing the “assembly line” operation, and it has the world’s leading feed machinery R&D and testing conditions, which indicates that China’s feed machinery industry has become a successor to the automotive industry and home appliance manufacturing industry.” Smart manufacturing industry.

It is understood that, as the world's second-largest feed machinery manufacturer, the rapid development of the Shepherd Group in recent years, equipment, personnel, and venues have not kept up with the rhythm, which is to promote the construction of a new "feed machinery production research base" direct factors.

The person in charge of the production of the Sheep Group told the reporter: “In the past, after the introduction of many advanced equipment, the site was too tight to be put into use. After the base was built, it not only made full use of existing equipment, but also added more large-scale core equipment, such as CNC gantry machining center, turning and milling compound machining center, horizontal boring and milling machining center, CNC vertical lathe, CNC vertical machining center, welding robot, etc.

In the painting, painting, and equipment manufacturing sectors, the new base has completely eliminated the “ground-spread” operations that are commonly used in the industry. By introducing electronic information and adopting the “line-of-line” approach to production, the feed machinery industry has achieved “smart manufacturing”. Zero breakthrough.

"To build, we must aim at the world's leading level, rather than simply copy and enlarge. We originally conceived that it was not to lag behind for ten to twenty years," said Fan Tianming, president of the Shepherd Group.

At present, as the urbanization process accelerates, the demand for meat from residents increases, and the demand for feed in the aquaculture industry is also increasing. "According to the current situation, feed production will continue to grow in the next 15 to 20 years," said Feng Dingyuan, a professor at South China Agricultural University.

The historical opportunity should not be missed. At the end of 2012, Shepherd Group reviewed the situation and planned a grand strategic goal. Its core content is: By 2015, the Group's sales revenue exceeded RMB 20 billion, and feed machinery sales had ranked first in the world.

The "Feed Machinery Production and Research Base" project is the solid foundation for the shepherding group to achieve its sales target of 20 billion yuan and reach the world's top throne.

It is understood that in the feed machinery industry, Muyang Group is the first successful "going out" business. Last year, under the current international economic downturn and the sluggish export of China's foreign trade, the Sheep Group achieved a growth of more than 50% in contravention of the trend, and the international export amounted to 1.85 billion yuan. In all sales, there is one in three worlds. "Whether it is growth or scale, it is far more than other peers."

In 2012, China overtook the United States and leapt to the world's largest feed-producing country. The annual feed output has approached 200 million tons. At present, there are as many as 10,000 feed production enterprises in China, but the industry concentration is increasing. Large-scale feed enterprises rely on the advantages of formula technology and industrial chain, and gradually eliminate small-scale feed enterprises with weak R&D strength and a single product structure. Industry experts pointed out that this means that the feed industry has great potential for high-end intelligent feed processing equipment. The completion of the Muyang Group's world-class feed machinery research and production base will better meet the needs of the feed industry for advanced production equipment and improve the overall equipment level of the feed industry.
