What can be achieved in a few seconds or a minute?

几秒钟，一分钟，能干什么？

On June 28, the reporter visited Zhengzhou Economic and Technological Development Zone, the only "Five-Star Advanced Manufacturing Development Zone" in the province, and witnessed the power of smart manufacturing in seconds.

6月28日，记者走进全省唯一的“五星级先进制造业开发区”——郑州经开区，实地见证并感受到分秒间的智造力。

6.5 seconds to produce an air conditioner compressor - a feat achieved by Zhengzhou Highly Electric Appliance Co., Ltd.

6.5秒，生产一台空调压缩机——这是郑州海立电器有限公司创造的可能。

Since 2012, the Haier Zhengzhou Innovation Industrial Park has been located in Zhengzhou Economic and Technological Development Zone for 13 years. It consists of an air conditioner assembly plant with an annual capacity of 4 million sets, the world's only "Lighthouse Factory" for water heaters with an annual capacity of 6.5 million units -  Zhengzhou Haier Water Heater Interconnected Factory, a compressor production base with an annual capacity of 6 million units, and the RRS Logistics Distribution Center. It has become a smart manufacturing base with remarkable "supply depth" in the industry.

从2012年算起，海尔郑州创新产业园落户郑州经开区已有13个年头，由年产能400万套的空调整机厂、年产能650万台的全球唯一热水器“灯塔工厂”——郑州海尔热水器互联工厂、年产能600万台的压缩机生产基地、日日顺物流配送中心等项目组成，已成为行业内极具“供应纵深”的智能制造基地。

The compressor is the "heart" of an air conditioner. In the production workshop of Zhengzhou Highly, mechanical arms move swiftly on each production line. With the application of advanced technologies such as online AI visual inspection, industrial internet of things (IIoT), big data, and artificial intelligence, the automation rate exceeds 75%, and the processing precision is controlled within one-thousandth of a millimeter, making it a veritable digital and intelligent interconnected factory.

压缩机是空调的“心脏”。置身郑州海立的生产车间，各产线上机械臂上下翻飞，在线AI视觉检测、工业物联网、大数据、人工智能等先进技术的应用，自动化率达75%以上，加工精度控制在千分之一毫米级，是个名副其实的数智化互联工厂。

On the pump body production line, Liu Mengyun, a post-95 girl from Xinxiang, checks the eccentricity of crankshaft pistons every day. "The workshop is highly modernized, and robots are my little partners." she said with a smile.

泵体生产线上，“95后”新乡姑娘刘梦云每天要做的是曲轴活塞偏心检查。“车间可现代化了，机器人都是我的小伙伴。”她笑着说。

Zhengzhou Highly Electric Appliance Co., Ltd. was established through joint investment by Highly Group and Haier Air Conditioning to construct an air conditioner compressor factory. The entire compressor project started construction in April 2023. Relying on Highly Group's deep technical accumulation and rich smart manufacturing experience, the project achieved production within one year of commencement.

郑州海立电器有限公司由海立股份与海尔空调共同投资设立，建设空调压缩机工厂。整个压缩机项目2023年4月开工建设，依托海立股份深厚的技术积累和丰富的智能制造经验，项目开建一年内便实现投产。

"This year, we expect to a mass-production of 5 million compressors, mainly supporting the Zhengzhou Haier Innovation Industrial Park." said Yang Xiaolin, General Manager of Zhengzhou Highly. "We will deepen technological innovation and smart manufacturing, continuously enhance the core competitiveness of the enterprise, boost the construction of Henan as a manufacturing and digital intelligence strong province, and actively integrate into and serve the national unified big market."

“今年有望累计量产500万台压缩机，这些产品主要配套郑州海尔创新产业园。”郑州海立总经理杨笑林说，“我们将深耕技术创新和智能制造，不断提升企业核心竞争力，助推河南制造强省、数智强省建设，积极融入服务全国统一大市场。”

51 seconds to roll out a complete vehicle - the speed set by SAIC Passenger Vehicle Zhengzhou Base.

51秒，下线一辆整车——这是上汽乘用车郑州基地跑出的速度。

Since its settlement in 2017, SAIC has "heavily invested" in Henan, with cumulative investments exceeding 20 billion yuan, driving dozens of upstream and downstream projects of the entire industrial chain for the layout of Zhengzhou. At present, the SAIC Passenger Vehicle Zhengzhou Base has cumulatively produced over 2.4 million vehicles, with an output value exceeding 180 billion yuan. It is SAIC Group's largest passenger vehicle production base, data base, and export base of the whole country.

自2017年落户以来，上汽“重仓”河南，累计投资超200亿元，带动数十个全产业链上下游项目布局郑州。目前，上汽乘用车郑州基地累计生产整车超240万辆、产值超1800亿元，是上汽集团在全国最大的乘用车生产基地、数据基地、出口基地。

Recently, two new models have been launched at the Second Vehicle Factory of SAIC Passenger Vehicle Zhengzhou Base. In the 134,500-square-meter general assembly workshop, AGV material trucks shuttle busily, and workers "dance" with mechanical arms. Through a series of processes, vehicles roll off the production line in an orderly manner.

最近，上汽乘用车郑州基地整车第二工厂又上了两款新车型。13.45万平方米的总装车间里，AGV物料车来往奔忙，工人们与机械臂“共舞”，经过一道道工序，一辆辆整车有序下线。

"Currently, the general assembly workshop of Plant II produces 14 vehicle models on the same production line, with an average of one vehicle rolling off the production line every 51 seconds." said Liu Yabin, Leader of Chassis Section 1, with pride.

“目前，二厂总装车间有14个车型共线生产，平均51秒下线一辆整车。”底盘1工段长刘亚镔自豪地说。

Ding Bo, General Manager of SAIC Power Technology (Zhengzhou) Co., Ltd., Secretary of the Party Committee, and General Manager of Zhengzhou Base, stated frankly, "The annual output of the entire base is expected to increase to 500,000 vehicles this year, driving the output value of surrounding supporting enterprises to a new level and promoting the further growth of Henan’s new energy vehicle industry."

上汽动力科技（郑州）有限公司总经理，郑州基地党委书记、总经理丁波坦言：今年整个基地产量预计增至50万辆，带动周边配套企业产值迈上新台阶，促进河南新能源汽车产业进一步做大做强。

Manufacturing is the foundation of the real economy. The Ninth Plenary Session of the 11^th Henan Provincial Party Committee proposed to focuse on industrial transformation and upgrade the local development of new productive forces, striving to build Henan into a manufacturing and digital intelligence strong province. In the concentrated commencement activity of major projects in the second quarter of 2025, the Intelligent Electrical Equipment Industrial Park project with a planned total investment of 9.968 billion yuan also ushered in the "commencement moment", empowering Zhengzhou Economic and Technological Development Zone to build a high-quality manufacturing development demonstration zone.

制造业是实体经济的根基。省委十一届九次全会提出，要抓好产业转型升级和因地制宜发展新质生产力，奋力建设制造强省、数智强省。在2025年二季度全省重大项目集中开工活动中，计划总投资99.68亿元的智能电力装备产业园项目也迎来“开工时刻”，为郑州经开区打造制造业高质量发展示范区蓄势赋能。

Every second counts in the race of strength. Henan is reshaping its "industrial coordinates" by harnessing the power of every moment to develop advanced manufacturing.

分秒之间拼实力。发展先进制造业，河南正用分秒之力重塑“产业坐标”。（中文来源/河南日报客户端 记者/王延辉 编译/洪健园 英文审校/焦丹）
