In recent years, China attaches great importance to the development of intelligent industry, and a new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation is vigorously advancing. The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and other eight ministries jointly issued the "14th Five-Year Plan for the Development of Intelligent Manufacturing", and the direction and goal of intelligent development of cement and other manufacturing industries were once again clarified.
At present, the application of digital factory, intelligent logistics, driverless, digital mine and AI kiln grinding experts in cement enterprises has gradually taken shape and achieved good results. In order to further promote the digital and intelligent development of the industry, on April 25, China Cement Network held the "Fourth China Cement Intelligent Summit Forum", inviting industry experts, cement and intelligent related enterprises to focus on the intelligent innovation and practice of the cement industry, and to discuss in depth the intelligent transformation and development of the cement industry. 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; The chairman unit of China Cement Network, Shijiazhuang City Intelligence Achievements Appear." Jiang yuan, Vice President of
China Building Materials Industry Planning and Research Institute and Executive Vice Director/Professor-level Senior Engineer of Building Materials Industry Information Center, stressed at the meeting that the digital transformation of enterprises has generally entered the stage of comprehensive promotion. By 2025, 100 demonstration projects of intelligent manufacturing will be built in the building materials industry, 10 benchmarking enterprises of intelligent manufacturing and no less than 2 industrial Internet platform.
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. Shao Jun, founder and chairman of China Cement Network, said: "Innovation is productivity. With the decline of market demand from a high platform, it has become the consensus of the cement industry to accelerate the transformation of digitalization, intellectualization and unmanned and seize the commanding heights of development."
At the same time, Jia Huaping, senior consultant of China Cement Network, also believes that intellectualization is the trend of the times and the situation is pressing! ccement.com/brandnewslist-1-1000030.
Taking the whole-process intelligent cement plant of Quanjiao Conch as an example, the number of production personnel has been reduced by about 18% since it was put into operation. Equipment downtime has been reduced by about 20%, production efficiency has been increased by more than 20%, comprehensive utilization rate of resources has been increased by about 5%, energy consumption has been reduced by more than 1%, and CO2 emission reduction has exceeded 2.
Xu Yue, Minister of Equipment Management Department of Anhui Conch Group Co., Ltd., said that stable and efficient operation is the basis of intelligent production. The mechanical and electrical failures of Conch Cement have decreased for three consecutive years, and the continuous operation of the kiln for 200 days has become normal, with the longest continuous operation time reaching 439 days. Conch Cement will achieve long-term zero failure at the end of the 14th Five-Year Plan.
from digital mine management system, mine unmanned driving, Intelligent delivery system, intelligent logistics management, etc. In the new wave of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation, Conch promotes the integration of new generation information technology and cement manufacturing, and takes the lead in building a cement intelligent factory with Conch characteristics in the world.
In recent years, leading enterprises in the cement industry have not only accelerated the construction of intelligent chemical plants, but also begun to accelerate the construction of digital intelligent mines in an all-round way. Cheng Liming, a professor-level senior engineer of Sinoma International Engineering Co., Ltd. (Nanjing) and a national expert on mine safety production, believes that the construction of intelligent mines in the cement industry is still in the primary stage of development, and the degree of intelligence is not high. The proportion of intelligent mines that have been implemented in the cement industry is no more than 5%, which lags behind the metallurgical and coal industries, and there are few driverless projects.
for digitalization to lead manufacturing transformation. The cement industry has a long way to go for the development of standard intellectualization. The intellectualization of the cement industry is not an upgrade of individual links, but a holistic change. Jia Huaping believes that the construction of intelligent factories in the cement industry is a huge systematic project. At present, the situation at home and abroad is not very different. 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.
He suggested that intelligent factories are based on reliable equipment, mature technology, stable production, accurate on-line, 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, Jiang yuan also said that the current 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.
In this regard, he suggested that enterprises should realize the "empowerment-optimization-transformation-reengineering" of digital transformation from the four dimensions of "point-line-surface-body". 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.
In addition, as a traditional "two high industries", the near-zero emission of cement industry has become a topic of concern to the cement industry all over the world. Zheng Jianhui, a senior analyst and director of China Cement Network Cement Big Data Research Institute, said that in 2022, global cement carbon emissions were about 2.7 billion tons, accounting for 7% of global energy-related carbon emissions. The top 12 cement producers accounted for 77% of global cement production, and the task of reducing cement carbon emissions was heavy. It can be said that the cement industry is considered to be a difficult industry to reduce emissions.
the wind is blowing, it is time to set sail.". At present, we have stood at the important crossroads of high-quality development of the cement industry and seized the opportunity. We believe that with the joint efforts of all colleagues in the industry, China's cement industry will continue to make new breakthroughs on the road of intelligent upgrading.
