    Numerical Control (NC) technology is a key and generic enabling technology to promote the upgrading of mechanical products. Considering the barriers in technology and capital, among others that affect small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and that may lead to market failure and organization failure, there is a serious “Death Valley” phenomenon in the application of generic enabling technology. The working principle of the NC Generation Demonstration Project is to take demand as traction, innovation as driving power, and enterprise as the main body of technological innovation| and then to combine multivariate innovation between industry, universities, academic research, finance, and government, break through at key points, and successfully demonstrate NC generation projects. The NC Generation Demonstration Project applies NC technology to the mechanical products of a typical industry, essentially improving the product performance. In general, it speeds up the overall upgrading of mechanical products and promotes the transformation and upgrading of an enterprise toward sustainable development. In this way, the NC Generation Demonstration Project bridges the gap between generic enabling technology R&D and enterprises’ innovative production. This project has led to some remarkable accomplishments, and is a successful example of the application of generic enabling technology. The NC Generation Demonstration Project provides a helpful reference and establishes a solid foundation for the further implementation of the comprehensive popularization of NC technology in various industries and regions.

    Process manufacturing is an important pillar of China’s economic development, and its orderly and healthy development is of great significance to China’s economic and social development. However, the development of process manufacturing is constrained by its enormous consumption of resources and energy and its serious environmental impact. To reach a deeper understanding of the future development of process manufacturing, this study extends an analytical perspective from a single industry to all forms of process manufacturing. Based on the concepts of thermodynamics and entropy, this study analyzes the essence of process manufacturing. Three groups of key factors are used to build the analysis framework: flow and process| material, energy, and information| and scale and efficiency. A chemical engineering process and a phosphorus chemical process are then analyzed using this framework. The results show that the fundamental direction of the development of process manufacturing is to minimize the entropy increments of the whole system, rather than only those of the process system, while ignoring the entropy increments of the system of the external environment. In order to minimize the entropy increments of the whole system, it is necessary not only to pay attention to the economic benefits of the process system, but also to improve resource, energy, and environmental efficiency. To improve efficiency, the technology involved requires improvement, upgrading, and innovation. Improving and upgrading the technology can slightly improve the efficiency of a process system, while revolutionary innovation in the technology may greatly improve the efficiency.
