Collaboration NewsChina Steel Company actively promotes the application of 5G AIoT. Especially at the "Yawan Innovation X New South" exhibition event held at the Kaohsiung Exhibition Hall on (12/10), the "China Steel 5G AIoT Promotion Office" and the "China Steel 5G AIoT Laboratory" opening ceremony was held. Minister Wang Meihua, Mayor Chen Chimai of Kaohsiung City and other VIPs were invited to unveil the plaque together with Chairman Weng Chaodong and General Manager Wang Xiqin. The 5G outdoor demonstration field remote connection opening ceremony was held in the China Steel Plant area, opening a milestone for China Steel's introduction of 5G AIoT new technology. Chairman Weng said that in the face of global steel market competition and future carbon neutrality trends and challenges, in order to enhance the competitiveness of enterprises and build a refined steel mill for intelligent production and sales, in recent years, he has actively invested in smart manufacturing and digital transformation. For example, China Steel Company completed the construction of its first smart blast furnace last year and launched the Iron Smelting Smart Center. Through the introduction of AIoT, the blast furnace becomes a production process that can be seen, predictable and easy to control, so as to achieve various benefits of improving furnace condition stability, production efficiency and energy conservation and carbon reduction. In addition, China Steel Corporation also considers 5G as an important technology for future communication control, and actively plans to use 5G to build a high-reliability and high-security industrial control environment. Through new technologies of high-speed wireless networks, personnel can connect with various Internet of Things to respond to more diverse production environments in real time, stabilize production quality and improve work safety. China Steel Company this year marks the 50th anniversary of its construction. In order to strengthen its operating competitiveness in the next 50 years, it has invested about 85 million yuan in funds. It has joined hands with telecom companies to establish an outdoor demonstration field for 5G smart rail transportation, and cooperated with Renbao and Cisco to build an indoor demonstration field for 5G rolled steel smart factory. The two demonstration fields have carried out nine intelligent projects research, including intelligent plate embryo dynamic monitoring, steel belt offset monitoring system, expert remote collaboration system, digital production line real-life guide, remote control of dangerous operations, slag bucket status monitoring system, driving safety assistance system, XR virtual reality training, and self-propelled vehicle technology development. The opening of the outdoor demonstration field is only the first step for China Steel Corporation to introduce 5G AIoT technology. It will accelerate the development of related intelligent solutions in the future and gradually enable the application of 5G wireless network technology to maximize the benefits. China Steel Corporation's 5G AIoT promotion office and laboratory will work with Zhongguan Information to become a driving unit for related technology applications, and will connect with manufacturers of the 5G AIoT innovation park to soft, hardware and security protection issues. It has now carried out intelligent project development and application with International Accelerator (Microsoft), Xinchuang (Jiexi Technology), and academic and research institutions (Industrial Research Institute, Hi-Tech University, Metal Center, Luzhu Telecom Research Center). Through close cross-field cooperation, it will accelerate the implementation of China Steel 5G AIoT construction and application. In the future, it will promote relevant experience and technical achievements in parallel to the outside world, and contribute to the transformation and upgrading of the steel industry.
