Explore the "question mark" of industrial design enabling Longjiang manufacturing

In the spring of 2023, industrial design is popular in Heilongjiang manufacturing industry.

——At the beginning of the Spring Festival, the Provincial Department of Industry and Information Technology announced the list of provincial industrial design centers in Heilongjiang Province in 2022: four enterprise industrial design centers, including the Gas Turbine Industrial Design Center of the 703 Research Institute, and two industrial design enterprises, including Heilongjiang Duowei Spacetime Free Manufacturing Co., Ltd., were selected.

——On February 17, a "design+manufacturing" design supply and demand docking meeting was held in Harbin New Area, attracting well-known enterprises in the province, such as Devo Technology, Sayyas Window Industry and Jiusan Food.

——On the same day, the "Heilongjiang Creative Design Lecture" was held in Harbin. With the theme of "Lighting up the design · Charming Longjiang", the activity shared around creative design concepts, interpretation of classic cases, achievement display, brand upgrading, product design and other fields.

Why did industrial design attract the attention of government departments and enterprises in Heilongjiang at this time? How does industrial design empower manufacturing? With these questions, the reporter conducted an interview.


Question 1:

What is the difference between research and design?

At the beginning of 2023, the Gas Turbine Design Center of the 703 Research Institute was selected as the provincial industrial design center. As an old scientific research institute with a long history of R&D and manufacturing in the field of small and medium-sized gas turbines, how is the Industrial Design Center different from the past?

"As a scientific research institution, the internal gas turbine design center of the 703 Institute was more inclined to basic research in theory and technology at the initial stage. With the introduction of the national policy guidance to ensure strategic energy security and the increasing market demand, the 703 Institute has gradually carried out industrial application design. The current industrial design center is based on market research, understanding customer needs, and then carrying out industrial improvement design, which is more focused on Engineering applications. " Wang Yuanlong, deputy director of the Gas Turbine Business Department of the 703 Research Institute of China Shipping Group Corporation, told reporters.

The Gas Turbine Design Center of the 703 Research Institute currently has more than 240 staff, all of whom are the original staff of the 703 Research Institute. The change of the service objects has also changed the products. Because industrial design is the bridge between enterprise and market: on the one hand, it transforms production and technology into products suitable for market demand, and on the other hand, it feeds market information back to enterprises to promote enterprise development.

"Like the 30-megawatt gas-driven compressor unit used in the West-East Natural Gas Pipeline, we have carried out industrial design and upgrading on the original technology according to the market demand, and the performance index and reliability of the product have reached the international advanced level, which has been unanimously recognized by the users." Wang Yuanlong said that in the past, due to the policy orientation and less market demand, the 703 products were less used in the civil field, However, it has occupied a certain market through integrated products. In 2013, in order to solve the "bottleneck" problem of key core technologies of gas turbines, CSIC Longjiang Guanghan Gas Turbine Co., Ltd. was established with the support of the provincial, municipal and group companies in 2003 to carry out the development and production of independent products of gas turbines. At present, the 25-megawatt and 30-megawatt gas turbine units of the 703 Institute have been successfully applied in the fields of natural gas long-distance pipelines, offshore platforms and distributed energy, Fill in the domestic gap and effectively guarantee the national strategic energy security. Relying on the established gas turbine design center and integrating research and development, production, integrated test, after-sales service and market, the 703 Institute has gradually developed into the strongest, largest and most internationally competitive medium and small gas turbine development base in China.


Question 2:

What are the functions of industrial design?

In recent years, the importance of industrial design has been recognized by more and more enterprises - simple Bluetooth speakers, with ingenious design and retro accent, have become a necessity for many girls to live at home; The commonly used small vacuum cleaner has become the favorite of many car owners after its cartoon shape; An idea that can directly plug in USB to charge electrical appliances has made many families replace patch panels... The convenient and beautiful life needs are stimulating enterprises to constantly create more new and beautiful products.

The beauty of industry is the praise of manufacturing designers in the design field.

The Baihetan 1 million kilowatt hydro-generator unit produced by Harbin Electric Machinery Co., Ltd. of Harbin Electric Power Group won the gold medal of "the first industrial design competition in Heilongjiang Province". In an interview with reporters, Qin Daqing, deputy chief engineer of Harbin Electric Machinery Co., Ltd., summarized that the 1 million kilowatt hydro-generator unit embodies the beauty of many industrial designs: the beauty of symmetry, the beauty of coordination, and the beauty of structure.

In Qin Daqing's view, design is a creative activity carried out by human beings to achieve a specific purpose. Industrial design is included in the whole process of manufacturing products - from research and development to design, and then to production and manufacturing, each link contains design concepts.

Among 1 million hydro-generator units, 15 long+15 short blade runners exhibit the beauty of fluid mechanics and structural mechanics. The design team weighed the blades and accurately calculated the position of each blade according to the weighing results. In the inlet part of 15 long blades, insert 15 short blades with a length of about half. This combination improves the stability of the unit without increasing the degree of water flow congestion at the outlet, and at the same time increases the optimal efficiency of the Baihetan runner to 96.7%.

Here, industrial design has become an extension of research and development, an important element of product value-added, an important resource for enterprises, and a means for enterprises to win in competition.


Question 3:

What kind of talents are needed for industrial design?

The Sayyas window industry in our province is very famous in the industry. It once made a great noise in the market with German aluminum clad wooden windows. Since turning to the retail market, Sayyas has found that it is difficult to open the market in the south because the aluminum-clad wooden windows, which are popular in the cold regions, are too thick. Therefore, strengthen the aesthetic design of the product, and strive to make the product light and broad. In 2020, it will introduce military materials and launch the Cool 8 x series for the first time; In 2021, the first Jane Eyre JE aluminum alloy window without batten design will be launched; In 2022, it also developed the slim aluminum clad wooden window with extremely narrow frame. Bian Shuping, the chairman of the board, is very proud that the window of Sayyas can be 3.5 meters high without deformation, narrow and light, and even surprised German manufacturers.

This trend is no longer limited to home products. At the "design+manufacturing" design supply and demand docking meeting held on February 17, Wang Jin, the manager of the tractor business department of Heilongjiang Devo Technology Development Co., Ltd., said that it is difficult to achieve breakthroughs in the underlying design of traditional tractors, but industrial design has brought us a new perspective. Nowadays, people engaged in agricultural production also tend to be younger. They prefer comfortable, beautiful and humanized products. We hope to reach some cooperation with leading enterprises in the field of design in terms of ergonomics and appearance details.

The demand of enterprises for industrial design is more than that - it requires the product to be beautiful in shape, novel in style, comfortable in use, friendly in operation interface and practical. A series of requirements fully reflect that industrial design is a multi-disciplinary and interdisciplinary discipline. If you want to do well, you need to become a generalist in this field.


Question 4:

How to train industrial design talents?

Sayyas's success stems from a group of designers and developers who understand aluminum-clad wooden windows in the enterprise. They constantly break the circle, innovate and break through, design and produce products that combine practicality and beauty, and win a good reputation for the enterprise.

Such talents have grown up together with enterprises. Wang Yuanlong also said that in the design and production of small gas turbines, designers are often in the production line, because they need to understand the whole process of production and installation, and know how their design is finally realized.

Since 2022, our province has listed the creative design industry as the new engine of Longjiang's economic transformation. One of the reasons is that science and education have obvious advantages. Harbin Institute of Technology, Harbin Engineering, Harbin Institute of Technology, etc. are the earliest universities in the country to set up design majors. There are now 66 general colleges and higher vocational colleges in the province that have set up 258 design majors, and about 16000 design talents are trained each year.

Graduation of design major is only the beginning of becoming a talent. College students need to grow up in a wide range of scenes before they can be named "talent". Li Suliang, chairman of Heilongjiang Duowei Spacetime Free Manufacturing Co., Ltd., which has just been selected as Heilongjiang industrial design enterprise in 2022, said that universities in Heilongjiang should establish characteristic professional system in combination with local development planning. For the fields with comparative advantages, strengthen the training of special talents and build professional systems such as aerospace, shipbuilding, oil and gas chemical, power equipment, food industry, etc. It is also necessary to give play to the platform role of industrial design institutes and industry associations, and take industrial design research institutes, industrial design enterprises, and enterprise industrial design centers as the starting points to establish cross-regional cooperation in the industrial chain, develop the platform ecology, and boost the development of the industry. On the one hand, let talents truly understand the industrial enterprises and industrial system of Heilongjiang, and contribute to the industrial revitalization plan being vigorously implemented. On the one hand, let enterprises provide a broad stage for talents to realize value.

Liu Ying, the co-founder of Shenzhen Jiudian Industrial Design Co., Ltd., is a Heilongjiang hometown attracted by the new opportunities of Longjiang's development. She told the reporter, "Since last year, I have seen Heilongjiang introduce policies to develop the creative design industry in succession, and I know that the opportunity has come. I hope to help and empower enterprises by means of design methods and means, so that more people can understand the industrial strength of Heilongjiang. In the field of industrial design, the market potential of Heilongjiang Province is huge, and I hope to make great progress here with my hometown."
