Exploring the Road of Intelligent Manufacturing and Constructing Intelligent Factory "The Fourth China Cement Intelligent Summit Forum" was solemnly held

On April 25, the "Fourth China Cement Intelligent Summit Forum" held by China Cement Network was held in Changsha, Hunan Province. The theme of this

conference is "Exploring the Road of Intelligent Manufacturing and Building Intelligent Factories". Jiang yuan, Vice President of China Building Materials Industry Planning and Research Institute, Executive Vice Director of Building Materials Industry Information Center/Professor-level Senior Engineer; Zhang Zhenkun, CEO of Asia Cement (China) Holding Company, Chairman Unit of China Cement Network; Chen Zhongsheng, Vice President of Shandong Shanshui Cement Group Co., Ltd., Chairman Unit of China Cement Network; Xu Yue, Director of Equipment Management Department of Anhui Conch Group Co., Ltd.; Cheng Liming, Professor-level Senior Engineer and National Mine Safety Production Expert of China National Materials International Engineering Co., Ltd.; Wu Xiaohuan, Vice General Manager of China Gezhouba Group Cement Co., Ltd., Chairman of China Cement Network; Wang Wenhui, General Manager of Henan Tailong Building Materials Group Co., Ltd., Chairman of China Cement Network; Chairman Unit of China Cement Network, Shijiazhuang China Building Materials, Conch Cement , China Cement Network has been deeply engaged in the cement building materials industry for more than 20 years, continuously relying on huge data accumulation to build a big data platform for building materials." Continuously improve the industrial big data system with big data, market information, cement index and concrete index as the core, and enable industrial transformation with "industrial brain + digital factory".

Past practice has proved that digitalization and intellectualization have become a powerful tool for the cement industry to meet market challenges and achieve high-quality development. In the future, China Cement Network is willing to work with cement enterprises. intelligent manufacturing is the main direction of digital transformation, and intelligent manufacturing will promote the development of economic digitalization from both vertical and horizontal integration.

By 2025, 100 intelligent manufacturing demonstration projects, 10 intelligent manufacturing benchmarking enterprises and no less than 2 industrial Internet platform will be built in the building materials industry.

Jiangyuan said that cement industry enterprises accounted for more than 1/4 of the list of "typical cases of digital transformation of intelligent manufacturing in building materials industry in 2022", and achieved good results. Typical cases in smart factories, digital mines and key links led to the improvement of the informatization level of small and medium-sized building materials enterprises, and made important technological breakthroughs and progress. At present, the cement industry is in a critical period of transformation and upgrading, and there is an urgent need to lead the manufacturing transformation with digitalization, guide the convergence of innovative resources to the digital and intelligent fields, and accelerate the digital transformation of the cement industry. From the four dimensions of "point-line-surface-body", we can realize the "empowerment-optimization-transformation-reengineering" of digital transformation. Promote the intelligent and high-quality development of cement industry, and provide strong support for the transformation and upgrading of China's manufacturing industry and the construction of a strong manufacturing country. Xu Yue, director of the equipment management department of

Anhui Conch Group Co., Ltd., shared the construction case of Conch Cement in the intelligent factory with the 14th Five-Year Plan, Conch Cement started the construction of a new generation of intelligent factories, aiming at the quality control of the whole process, the unattended production line and the intelligent control of the whole factory.

She said that stable and efficient operation is the basis of intelligent production, conch cement mechanical and electrical failures have declined for three consecutive years, 200 days of continuous operation of the kiln has become normal, the longest continuous operation time has reached 439 days . Conch Cement will achieve long-term zero failure at the end of the 14th Five-Year Plan.

Intelligent manufacturing should be demand-oriented, focus on the labor intensity of employees, improve the working environment, enhance the efficiency of enterprises, coordinate the operation of various systems, ensure the maximum efficiency of intelligent systems, and continue independent R & D and innovation, so as to truly realize the landing of intelligent factories. Taking Quanjiao Conch as an example, through the synergy of intelligent quality management system and digital intelligent mine system, the automatic detection of ore quality and accurate collocation of limestone into the pile are realized, and the qualified rate of CaO reaches 100%.

Conch Cement strives to create a world-class enterprise with global competitiveness at the end of the 14th Five-Year Plan, to better play the strategic supporting role of the state-owned economy in the construction of digital China, and to show new and greater achievements of international friendly enterprises in the construction of a new development pattern.

He said that the digital intelligent mine solution is based on one center, four platforms and N systems to unify and standardize the content, concept and standard of digital intelligent mine construction in cement industry. Accelerate and efficiently promote the construction of digital intelligent mines in the cement industry, realize the transformation and upgrading of the mining industry, build modern mining enterprises, and lay a good foundation for the ultimate realization of intelligent mines (unmanned mines).

For example, since the whole process intelligent cement plant was put into operation, the number of production personnel has been reduced by about 18%, the shutdown of equipment has been reduced by about 20%, the production efficiency has been increased by more than 20%, the comprehensive utilization rate of resources has been increased by about 5%, the energy consumption has been reduced by more than 1%, and the CO2 emission has been reduced by more than 2.

The construction of intelligent factory in cement industry is a huge systematic project. At present, the situation at home and abroad is not very different, and they are all in the initial stage. The control principle still needs to be broken through, the big data still needs to be accumulated, and the intelligent equipment still needs to be developed.

Jia Huaping suggested that intelligent factories are based on reliable equipment, mature technology, stable production, accurate online, monitoring and measurement technology. The basic things such as equipment, technology, monitoring and measurement are not only necessary for intelligent factories, but also effective for improving the operation level of existing enterprises. Reliable equipment, automation and intelligence help enterprises to produce efficiently.

At the same time, he pointed out that the rapid development of intellectualization will also have an impact on employment in the economy and society, which is worth pondering.

In 2022, the global cement carbon emissions will be about 2.7 billion tons, accounting for 7% of the global energy-related carbon emissions. The top 12 cement producers account for 77% of the global cement production, and the task of reducing cement carbon emissions is heavy. It can be said that the cement industry is considered to be a difficult industry to reduce emissions. The 20 enterprises with the largest cement production capacity in the

world have a total production capacity of 2.6 billion tons, and China accounts for 62% of the total production capacity. Many enterprises have put forward the goal of achieving net zero emissions by 2050. Europe, India, the United States and other countries have set carbon reduction targets, China has also promoted carbon emission reduction around the carbon peak program, and many domestic cement enterprises have set carbon emission reduction targets. For example, Conch Cement plans to reduce carbon dioxide emissions in 2025 compared with 2020 (
