How does digital transformation serve the real economy? Next, let’s take a look at a few companies. Known as the world’s most advanced factory, “Lighthouse factory” is a model of digital transformation in the manufacturing industry, in the current global selection of 103 factories as “lighthouse factories”, 37 are located in China, more than one-third of the total, and involves a number of fields. Our reporter recently visited a “lighthouse factory” in Beijing to learn how advanced technology is enabling the transformation and upgrading of Chinese manufacturing.
TR104-EX CCTV reporter Song Wan: Walking into the 5G full coverage of the “lighthouse factory”, you can see the double-car linked AGV car is handling ultra-long overweight drill pipe, AGV car is known as the cargo handling “speedy”, under the guarantee of accurate timing, low delay 5G wireless industrial private network, it can achieve 27 meters of ultra-long overweight material synchronous handling and automatic loading and unloading.
The “man-machine collaboration” technology based on “5G+AR” is widely used
In the factory, the “man-machine collaboration” technology based on “5G+AR equipment” has been widely used, and traditional tiring and dangerous work such as material sorting and pin assembly no longer requires human operation, and all are efficiently completed by robots. At the same time, through strong human-machine collaboration, robot AI can also learn the skills and techniques of skilled workers without programming.
CCTV reporter Song Wan: This robot is the technical parameterization and software of the welding craftsmen of the Bird’s Nest Stadium, and it has realized the flexible welding of thick pipes in heavy equipment. It not only improves the welding efficiency, at the same time, the one-time pass rate of welding quality can reach 100%.
TR104-EX “Lighthouse factory” hundreds of robots in the heat, every moment is staged a variety of parts of difficult, high-precision assembly, and there is such a pair of eyes has been responsible to ensure that the assembly process in order, without a knock, it is 3D machine vision, it not only saves a lot of labor and equipment costs, but also to double the production capacity, can be described as “eye disease fast.”
CCTV reporter Song Wan: The core of intelligent manufacturing in the whole factory is the control center, which is the “wisdom brain” of the factory. Through it, orders can be quickly broken down to each flexible production line, each work island, each piece of equipment, and even each worker, achieving a full process data driven from order to delivery.
Up to now, the monthly production capacity of the factory has reached 300 units, becoming the world’s largest pile machinery manufacturing base. In China, the industrial Internet has been applied in 45 national economic categories. In the first quarter of this year, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology released 123 industrial Internet pilot demonstration projects and 4 industrial demonstration bases, and the industrial Internet is enabling the digital transformation of thousands of industries.
