More than 30 international students from Jiangsu University recently traveled to Changzhou for a firsthand look at China's rapidly advancing smart manufacturing sector.

The program took the students to Changzhou Pacific Electric Power Equipment Group, a high-tech company specializing in power transmission and distribution equipment.

During the visit, the students toured two of the company's key production lines for high- and low-voltage switchgear and transformers. From the precision processing of individual components to the standardized assembly of finished products, they gained an up-close understanding of modern industrial production.

The visit also highlighted the role of digital technology in manufacturing. Real-time monitoring platforms track quality throughout the production process, demonstrating how traditional manufacturing is increasingly being integrated with digital management and intelligent technologies.
