In 2025, "60 Green Building Materials Day" launched the "Public Open Day" of the national building materials industry for the first time. Jinyu Jidong Cement Tongchuan Company is the only enterprise in the building materials industry that is open to the public with the theme of zero-employee factory.
Jinyu Jidong Cement, as the unveiling unit, Tongchuan Company, as the implementation unit, has fully launched the construction of "zero employee" factory application demonstration project since 2022, gathering the resources of top think tanks in the industry and professional fields, and drawing up a blueprint for the construction of zero employee factory with digital technology as the core driving force. Over the past three years, five closed-loop management systems, including production, quality, material, safety, operation and maintenance, have been constructed in an orderly manner to realize the "three-center" innovation and transformation of production organization mode, optimize the number of first-line employees to 12 people per shift, independently develop and practice nearly 100 algorithms and models, focusing on quality inspection, production control and equipment. It has created more than 10 industry-first digitalization scenarios, and its energy consumption indicators are far superior to the national first-class energy consumption standards, which has become the benchmark of digitalization transformation in the cement industry.
On June 5, the Open Day of Tongchuan Company fully publicized the concept of 60 factories in the building materials industry and the achievements of the construction of Tongchuan Zero Employee Factory to the public in a variety of rich and novel ways.
01. Looking back on the industrial memory and witnessing the "Phoenix Nirvana"
activity, the development process of Jinyu Jidong Cement as the "cradle of China's cement industry" was deeply traced, and the outstanding years of Tongchuan Yaoxian Cement as the national "First Five-Year Plan" key project were vividly reproduced. To the technological innovation in the period of reform and opening up, and then to the "Phoenix Nirvana" road of intelligent transformation in the new era of socialism with Chinese characteristics, the panoramic presentation of how Jinyu Jidong Cement Tongchuan Company takes innovation as its pen and draws a brand-new picture of "the benchmark of the whole process intelligent 10000 tons production line" on the traditional industrial background, which has lasted for 70 years. It fully demonstrates the struggle history of Tongchuan Company from rising to leading, and reviews the glorious course of New China's industry from scratch, from existence to excellence, from excellence to strength.
02. Virtual and reality integration, immersive visit to the "zero employee factory"
on-site visit link, the audience zero distance contact with the "cement zero employee factory" which includes digital three-dimensional factory, industrial robots, UAVs, video AI recognition and other cutting-edge technologies. Through the immersive scene experience and interactive technology display of virtual and reality blending, the advanced level of contemporary cement production and manufacturing is presented in an all-round way, which refreshes the inherent cognition of "high pollution and low efficiency" of traditional industries, and intuitively feels the concept of green, intelligent and high-end modern cement manufacturing.
Jinyu Jidong Cement Tongchuan Company takes the first "Public Open Day" activity in the building materials industry as an opportunity to build an open platform, bringing together relevant government departments, leaders and experts of industry associations, representatives of customers and suppliers, old employees and their families. With the help of colorful activities, it not only presents the achievements of cement digitalization and intellectualization transformation, but also further conveys the firm belief of "60 Intelligent Manufacturing and Green Building Future" to the public. At the same time, it also transforms the concept of "60 Intelligent Manufacturing and Green Building Future" into industry consensus, and injects "green kinetic energy" and "wisdom engine" into the high-quality development of building materials industry. Located in Huiyuan Industrial Park, Tongchuan City, Shaanxi Province
, Jidong Cement Tongchuan Co., Ltd. is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tangshan Jidong Cement Co., Ltd. under Beijing Jinyu Group. In 2021, the company invested 2 billion yuan to build a new dry clinker cement production line with a daily output of 10000 tons, which integrates green, ultra-low emission and intelligence. The annual output of clinker is 3.1 million tons, the co-disposal of industrial hazardous waste is 100,000 tons, and the distributed photovoltaic power generation system of 3.26 MW is integrated. In addition, the company also has two high-quality limestone mines which have won the national and provincial green mine certification.
The company's 10000-ton clinker cement production line integrates advanced technologies and systems such as mechanism simulation, intelligent expert control, intelligent monitoring and detection, equipment management, image recognition and analysis, energy management, safety management, UAV thermal imaging inspection, and constructs a cement intelligent chemical plant based on digital twins. This innovative practice has not only realized the intelligent "green factory" of waste treatment, waste heat power generation, distributed photovoltaic and Internet + logistics, but also been appraised by the expert committee of China Building Materials Federation, and the "research and development and application of the key technology of the whole process of the ten thousand ton cement production line" has reached the international leading level.
As the backbone of the national cement industry, the company has always insisted on innovation-driven development and quality to create brand. "Dunshi Brand" series cement products, including P.O42.5 (R), P.O52.5 (R), low alkali 42.5, low alkali 52.5, retarding 42.5 and other models, have established a benchmark image in the industry by virtue of excellent product quality and stable performance. High-end customized cement has successfully filled the market gap in this field in Shaanxi Province, and has successfully entered the high-end concrete market with excellent technical indicators, which has won high praise from industry experts and key engineering customers. With its excellent durability, stability and environmental performance, the leading products have become the preferred building materials for national key projects and landmark construction projects, and have been designated and recommended by national authoritative architectural design units for many times. In recent years, the company has won the honors of Intelligent Manufacturing Demonstration Factory, Green Supply Chain Management Enterprise and National "Green Factory" of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, Baojianshan Mine in 2024 has won the "Top Ten Mines in China", and the company has also been rated as the top 100 most growing building materials enterprises in China in 2024 and the top 100 building materials enterprises in 2024. It highlights the company's leading position in technological innovation, green development and comprehensive management.
Facing the future, driven by digitalization and intellectualization, the company has made every effort to build a "lighthouse unmanned factory" in the cement industry, taking the lead in the construction of a "zero-employee factory", and through the deep integration and application of advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence, industrial Internet and big data, the company has made every effort to build a "zero-employee factory" in the cement industry. Intelligent modern manufacturing system contributes wisdom and strength to the transformation and upgrading of China's building materials industry.
