Empower intelligent manufacturing with innovative design to assist in industrial transformation and upgrading

On January 9, 2025, the China Machinery Industry Federation and the China Machinery Metallurgical Building Materials Union jointly released the list of winners for the 4th National Machinery Industry Design Innovation Competition in 2024. KUKO's independently developed "stepped self-rotating heat shrink machine" won the Excellent Award of the competition with its innovative design and technological breakthroughs.

Focus on innovative design to solve the pain points of the industry

"Stepped Self-rotating Heat Shrink Machine" is a high-end equipment developed by KUKO Company for the problems of low efficiency and high energy consumption of traditional heat shrinking process. The product realizes stepped self-rotating motion through modular design, combined with intelligent temperature control system and adaptive adjustment technology, which significantly improves the accuracy and efficiency of film shrink-hooding processing. Its compact structure and user-friendly operation interface further optimize the user experience, and can be widely used in electronic component packaging; cable insulation; The outer packaging of irregular bottles and other fields provide a new solution for the intelligent upgrading of the manufacturing industry.

Promote production through competition and promote the integration of design and technology

KUKO's participation in the National Machinery Industry Design Innovation Competition aims to accelerate the formation of new quality productivity through industry exchanges and achievement transformation. With the theme of "AI + Industrial Design", this year's competition focuses on the deep integration of artificial intelligence and manufacturing, and promotes the transformation of design results into actual productivity. The technical director of KUKO said: "This award is an affirmation of the team's commitment to technological innovation. In the future, we will further deepen the design and research and development, combine industrial models and intelligent algorithms, and promote the development of equipment in the direction of full automation and digitalization.”

Expert evaluation: Design empowers industrial upgrading

Professor Liu Guanzhong from Tsinghua University once pointed out in relevant forums of this competition that excellent industrial design needs to combine cutting-edge technology with user needs to create a "new species" level value experience. KUKO's "stepped self-rotating heat shrink machine" is the practical result of this concept. Its design not only solves industry pain points, but also injects new energy into traditional processes through intelligent functions.
