Feihe Dairy is a leading enterprise in China's infant formula milk powder industry. Relying on the high-quality resources of the "Golden Milk Source Belt" at 47° north latitude, it owns 13 modern intelligent factories. The entire production line adopts intelligent equipment, covering transparent sightseeing factories, dust-free production lines, and innovative testing centers. Through strategic cooperation with Wellthinic Technology, Feihe has achieved comprehensive upgrades in intelligent production lines, R&D, and testing, ensuring high-quality products and traceability, and establishing a benchmark image of intelligence and digitization in the industry. Feihe (Tailai) Factory was selected for the "List of Unveiled Units of the 2021 Dairy Intelligent Manufacturing Demonstration Factory" jointly selected by four central ministries and commissions, and Feihe (Gannan & Jilin) Factory won the 2024 Industry 4.0 - Smart Factory Award.

Solution Description:

Wellthinic Technology has helped Feihe Dairy comprehensively upgrade its intelligent manufacturing system. With the MES system as the core and LIMS as the starting point, this solution has achieved deep integration of MES with multiple systems such as ERP, WMS, LIMS, WCS, and the automation control system. The system functions cover comprehensive business processes such as milk reception, pasteurization management, work order management, formula management, material management, production management, anti-mistake and anti-foolproof, and quality management. The project highlights include comprehensive system integration, deep interaction with the automation system, standardized milk reception management, standardized laboratory management, standardized inspection, refined material management, electronic lock control for material feeding, convenient quality traceability, digital equipment performance analysis, standardized clear-up management, electronic SOP, and electronic controlled records.
