With the trend of economic globalization, in traditional intensive processing and manufacturing industries, such as clothing, electronics and other industries, the manufacturing cost of single products is getting higher and higher, and the processing profit is getting lower and lower. In order to improve the overall profit margin of enterprises and optimize enterprise management processes, it has become one of the effective means to improve the production efficiency of assembly lines through information and intelligent transformation.

In the production process of traditional manufacturing enterprises, most of the production modes are based on the single piece flow production mode. The major disadvantage of this production line mode is that a large number of semi-finished products are usually overstocked in some bottleneck processes. If the processes are complex and there are many production links, this phenomenon will be more serious. Only through the transformation of artificial intelligence can we overcome the waste of this production line and achieve high-quality development.

With the rapid popularization of industrial automation, although the penetration rate of automation in most developing countries, including China, is still relatively low, the application of global automation is constantly improving, and the continuous progress in technology has further promoted the upgrading of automated assembly lines to a higher level. At present, the industrial production of assembly line is changing to automatic assembly line on a large scale. However, with the continuous commercialization of Internet of Things and cloud platform applications, the development of automation in the industrial field has the trend of upgrading to a higher level, that is, intelligent production. The industrial automatic assembly line is a general term for the information processing and process control of measuring, manipulation and the like to be realized according to the expected goal without direct human intervention in machine equipment or production process. Automatic assembly line is an important symbol of modern industry. Through automatic assembly line technology, industrial enterprises can achieve multiple purposes such as improving production efficiency, improving product quality, saving labor costs, reducing consumption (raw material and energy) and ensuring safety.

Artificial intelligence technology is a new science and technology that enables computers to simulate some human thinking processes and intelligent behaviors (such as learning, reasoning, thinking, planning, decision-making, etc.). Artificial intelligence is a branch of computer science. It attempts to understand the essence of intelligence and produce a new intelligent machine that can react in a way similar to human intelligence. The artificial intelligence technology is introduced into the automatic assembly line technology (automatic production assembly line, automatic packaging assembly line), so that the automatic assembly line system has expert knowledge, experience and reasoning decision-making ability. They can learn independently and acquire new knowledge, and have intelligent tactile, visual, auditory, and language processing capabilities. They can simulate the reasoning, association, judgment, and decision-making of experts in the engineering field, so as to achieve the goal of design and manufacturing automation. Intelligentization can help engineers and technicians get rid of a lot of tedious repetitive work, make the design and manufacturing process faster, simpler and safer, and make the automatic assembly line system more practical and efficient.
