This article addresses the issues of insufficient automation, high reliance on manual labor, and data silos in the traditional stirrup production process. It employs various information technologies such as building information modeling (BIM), enterprise resource planning (ERP), manufacturing execution systems (MES), cyber physical systems (CPS), central control systems (CCS), and warehouse management systems (WMS) to establish a solution for intelligent stirrup production. Based on this foundation, a flexible robotic grasping fixture is designed, integrating automated equipment including material handling robots, stacking robots, automatic packaging machines, and AGV forklifts. This configuration creates a highly automated, digitized, and intelligent stirrup workstation, facilitating the automation and flexibility of stirrup production. This solution eliminates data silos and achieves comprehensive data integration from BIM design to production execution, allowing for seamless coordination between online scheduling and offline automated execution in the stirrup production process. Through these measures, stirrup production has attained high standards of intelligent manufacturing, driving the factory’s transformation towards digitization and intelligence.
