Beijing ABB Electric Drive System Co., Ltd. has started factory automation and digitization projects since 2018, and is committed to building smart factories. As of the first half of 2022, eight intelligent transformation projects have been successfully implemented, integrating industrial robots, digital twins, visual identification technology, SAP MES manufacturing execution system, RFID, EDI and other technologies, covering raw material transportation and reception, assembly, testing, packaging, logistics and distribution. Improved production efficiency, stability of manufacturing quality and process traceability. The strategic goals of “carbon peak” in 2025 and “carbon neutrality” in 2030 will be completed ahead of schedule this year, and will, as always, promote industrial upgrading, adhere to the sustainable development strategy, and support the green and low-carbon transformation of users in various industries. ABB Cloud Drive is a product that integrates cloud connectivity, cloud monitoring, cloud diagnosis, cloud prediction, cloud optimization and cloud file functions. It can provide customers with a series of digital solutions, compatible with multiple ABB drive products, and bring customers digital experience beyond product value, improve production efficiency, and achieve digital operation and maintenance.
ABB Smart Sensor Smart sensor
ABB smart sensors turn traditional motor, fan, and pump rotating equipment into smart wireless connected devices that measure and analyze key performance parameters of the equipment to let users know when the equipment needs maintenance, reduce the risk of system inefficiency and equipment downtime, and extend the service life of the equipment and reduce maintenance costs. The ACH580-31 is an ultra-low harmonic frequency converter launched by ABB in the Chinese market in 2022. The product has built-in harmonic suppression system, which can achieve the total harmonic distortion rate of THDi less than 3%, which can help users improve energy efficiency and protect power quality at the same time, and can be widely used in data centers, electronic factories, hospitals, laboratories, airports, subways, commercial buildings and shopping centers and other occasions or applications with harsh harmonic requirements. ABB’s new permanent magnet shaft generator uses proven permanent magnet technology to deliver a maintenance-free solution that improves efficiency, optimizes performance and enhances reliability for ship operators. It can help ships save 3% to 4% in fuel costs and significantly reduce emissions, and its lightweight and compact optimized design allows installation area to be reduced by approximately 20%. In terms of industry applications, “ABB inverter and motor heating station digital application to help smart heating” won the “Industrial Intelligent Innovation Award”. Before the arrival of the 2022 heating season, ABB engineers conducted field visits to scattered residential heat exchange stations, cloud connected key equipment such as circulating pumps, supplementary pumps, and frequency converters in the stations, and realized condition monitoring, remote assistance, and predictive maintenance functions of relevant heating equipment through digital enabling, helping heat companies reduce unnecessary downtime. While saving human resources, it improves the stability of heating throughout the winter and realizes energy saving and efficiency.
In the future, ABB Motion Control will continue to focus on product innovation, give full play to its field expertise and technical advantages, and actively layout digitalization and energy-saving and efficiency related applications to help customers achieve digital and intelligent transformation and upgrading, and help sustainable development.
