Abstract: Compared with previous technological revolutions,intelligent revolution can not only improve labor productivity,but also realize the integration of production and consumption based on intelligent technology. The essence of intelligent manufacturing is accurate and efficient supply-demand matching based on data elements and digital technology,to achieve personalized customization of the production process,and finally to resolve,to a certain extent,the contradiction between unlimited development of production capacity and limited consumption through “integration of production and consumption” to overcome overproduction. The “integration of production and consumption” presents a trend of fuzzy boundary and cross-border integration at micro,medium and macro levels which is embodied in flattening the “smile curve” of product value chain,gradual breaking of enterprise boundaries,and the integration of manufacturing and service industry.

Key words: intelligent manufacturing, technical revolution, personalized customization, data elements
