Robots are rapidly replacing manual "occupation" of cement plants

In recent years, with the development of Industrial Internet of Thing, big data, artificial intelligence and other intelligent technologies, the cement industry is setting off an upsurge of intelligent transformation and upgrading. As a product of intelligent upgrading, robots are rapidly replacing manual "occupation" of cement plants.

At present, the robots in cement plants are mainly distributed in the intelligent delivery system of cement, intelligent inspection, intelligent laboratory, robot warehouse clearance, etc., and many large enterprises such as Conch Cement, Jidong Cement, Zhonglian Cement , etc.

It is reported that Kaisheng Robot, a subsidiary of China Building Materials, is also vigorously developing an intelligent loading system for bagged cement robots. At the same time, Anhui Conch Zhongnan Intelligent Robot Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of Conch Cement, was established in 2020, focusing on the research and development and promotion of bagged cement robot automatic loading system, palletizing and blockage removal system, providing EPC one-stop turnkey engineering service robots.

Data show that in Luoyang Zhonglian, the fully enclosed robot loading system implemented by Kaisheng Robot automatically adapts to all current models, while improving the delivery efficiency, it thoroughly solves the problem of unorganized dust emission in the cement delivery link. At the same time, due to the realization of the whole process of pollution control, it also effectively protects the health of employees and avoids occupational hazards. The intelligent loading system

of Conch Zhongnan bagged cement robot has changed the traditional mode of manual operation in packaging and delivery, realized the unmanned process from vehicle entering the factory, automatic bag insertion, packaging, weighing to vehicle leaving the factory, effectively solved the problem of unorganized dust emission in the cement packaging and delivery area, and greatly improved the delivery efficiency. At the beginning of

2023, the intelligent inspection robot in the coal mill workshop of Yangquan Jidong Cement Co., Ltd. It is reported that the installed intelligent inspection robot adopts the inspection mode of "wireless communication + intrinsically safe rail-mounted intelligent inspection robot". Through on-site camera data acquisition and calculation, it can realize the functions of environmental detection, flap valve anomaly identification, foreign body detection, video analysis and so on, so as to make safety production more visible and environmental protection more controllable.

Intelligent quality control system is one of the modules that can not be ignored in "Wuhu Conch Intelligent Factory". According to the introduction, this system can automatically complete on-line inspection, testing and batching according to the quality pre-control target of clinker or cement. In the Intelligent Quality Laboratory, you can see a huge robotic arm standing quietly.

In addition, the traditional cement warehouse cleaning is manual cleaning, which is inefficient, time-consuming and laborious, and easy to cause safety accidents, with a high degree of danger. In this regard, the cement industry has gradually begun to use cement robot warehouse cleaning, which can not only shorten the time of manual cleaning, improve work efficiency, but also effectively avoid the safety accidents caused by material collapse in the process of warehouse cleaning.

At present, industrial robots are becoming more and more popular in cement plants. It is an irreversible trend to use artificial intelligence and technological innovation to lead the transformation of industrial production mode and promote the development of cement industry.

To this end, China Cement Network will hold the Fifth China Cement Intelligence Summit Forum in Hangzhou on November 29, 2023, with the theme of "Data-Driven Decision-Making Intelligence Leads the Future", inviting industry experts, scholars and representatives of relevant enterprises. To jointly explore and promote the intelligent process of the cement industry.
