Difficult For All Furniture Maker,Especially for Custom Hotel Furniture Manufacturers

However,not all furniture manufacturers can do same as Zhaosheng Furniture.To most of the medium and small size traditional furniture manufacturers ,especially for hotel furniture manufacturers and custom home furniture manufacturers whose products are all different according to customers’ drawing.

According to the ‘The Research Report For Efficiency Analysis of Shunde Furniture Enterprises’,Among the enterprises with annual amount from 50 million RMB to 100 million RMB,80 percent of them are willing to invest more on production equipment to improve the production efficiency.The smaller size the enterprises are ,the smaller desire to invest to update the production equipment.In terms of the production type, most of the enterprises who adopt automation or half automation equipment are board furniture or office furniture production enterprises.The insider points out that profit of furniture production is not high so the enterprises are hard to have enough money for updating the equipment and purchasing the expensive automation production line.In addition, there are so many furniture categories including panel furniture,upholstery furniture,solid wood furniture and hardware furniture.Each of them has different technique and processes.Each product involves tens of process,thus it is impossible for all of them to adopt automation assembly line.

During the landing process of Robot Substitution,generally furniture enterprises suffer the lack money and technique and other problems.Robot operation is not so flexible and the control of manufacturing schedule should be improved.Also owing to the high maintenance cost,quite a few production line are abandoned because the expected efficiency is not realized.
