尽管新一代飞机的机身、发动机、航电系统等都采用了许多新技术、新设计、新材料等,较老一代飞机有了很大改进,但现在的航空维修业仍然属于劳动密集型产业,在劳动力成本居高的当下,通过自动化修理提高生产效率也许将成为维修企业保持市场竞争力的最有效解决方案之一。在航空维修业这个劳动力密集型产业中,欧美发达国家一直以来的做法是,选择将维修业务外包至中国等劳动力成本较低的国家和地区,帮助其降低维修成本。但随着中国等国家劳动力成本逐渐上涨,甚至与西方国家基本持平,曾经拥有的劳动力成本优势正在丧失,曾经外包的维修业务正在出现回流。各国 Although many new technologies, new designs and new materials are used in the fuselage, engine and avionics system of the new generation of aircraft, the aircraft of the older generation have been greatly improved. However, the current aviation maintenance industry still belongs to the labor-intensive industries At the moment when labor costs are high, improving production efficiency through automated repairs may be one of the most effective solutions for maintaining a company’s competitiveness in the market. In the labor-intensive aviation maintenance industry, the developed countries in Europe and the United States have all along been trying to outsource maintenance operations to countries and regions with lower labor costs, such as China, to help them reduce maintenance costs. However, with the rising labor costs in China and other countries, and even with the western countries, the cost advantage of the labor force once enjoyed is losing. The outsourced maintenance business is now undergoing a return flow. Countries
