Abstract

With the coming of technological and industrial revolution, China's economy steps into a period with strategic opportunities, where the economic structure faces a series of challenges. As an industrial country, the transformation and upgrade of manufacturing industry has become an important channel driving high-quality economic growth and realizing the dual circulation in which domestic circulation is prioritized and domestic-international circulations mutually reinforce each other. In contrast to situation that United States values virtual economy and neglects real economy for a long term, the administrations of Obama, Trump, and Biden consider the strategy revitalizing manufacturing industry as the core industrial strategy since 2010. Policies, like Revitalize American Manufacturing and Innovation Act of 2014, National Network for Manufacturing Innovation, United States Innovation and Competition Act of 2021, etc., have achieved the expected objective results. From the perspective of intelligent manufacturing, this study systematically analyzes the evolution of United States' intelligent manufacturing policy since the Obama administration, focuses on two practices of American Manufacturing Innovation Institute and Manufacturing Extension Partnership, and further summarizes the experience of United States' intelligent manufacturing. To promote the development of intelligent manufacturing of China, based on policies and practices corresponding to United States, China's national conditions and industrial foundation, this research summarizes 6 enlightenments of American intelligent manufacturing policy for China:(1) emphasizing the leading role of the government and consummating the top-level design of intelligent manufacturing; (2) cultivating intelligent manufacturing ecosystem and supporting the development of small and medium-sized enterprises; (3) enhancing the ability of independent innovation and promoting the process of discovery and commercialization of key technologies; (4) sustaining openness and cooperation of the manufacturing system, accelerating knowledge sharing and integration; (5) reforming the evaluation system and optimizing the allocation of innovation resources; (6) improving the education and training system, strengthening the training mechanism of intelligent manufacturing talents.
