dc.description.abstract | The textile industry is characterized by high energy consumption and significant pollution. The dyeing and finishing processes represent the most critical and environmental challenges stage within the fabric production chain. This study proposes a smart factory architecture applied to Company F in the textile industry, and this study is focus in implementing intelligent solutions in washing and scouring processes. The results demonstrate substantial environmental and economic benefits. The intelligent monitoring and control management systems, combined with automation technologies, leverage real-time data monitoring and optimization to precisely control the usage of chemical solutions and temperature settings. This approach significantly reduces wastes of energy and water resource, and lowers the emissions of wastewater and exhaust. Consequently, the energy consumption of the process is markedly decreased, and the usage and discharge of chemicals are substantially decrease, leading to a significant reduction in carbon emissions.
Meanwhile, the study significantly enhances process efficiency and economic performance. The transition from traditional manual operations to automation and intelligent monitoring systems reduces labor costs, increases production capacity and quality, thereby saving material costs and reducing the need for rework. The implementation of a smart factory in the textile industry not only boosts the economic benefits for companies but also promotes sustainable development, aligning with goals of global environmental protection and resource conservation. Looking ahead, as technological innovations continually development and deeply applications, smart factories are poised to lead the textile industry towards a more sustainable, efficient, and adaptable future. | en_US |
