Founded in 1991, Gree Electric Appliances Inc.Of Zhuhai(000651) , always adheres to the corporate mission of “making the world love made in China”, actively responds to the concept of “prospering the country through industry and strengthening the country through science and technology”, and uses innovation to boost the development of the real economy. After 30 years of development, it has gradually developed into a diversified and scientific global industrial manufacturing group. Its products are exported to more than 160 countries and regions, boosting the high-quality development of the manufacturing industry.
Private network construction, leading three application enabling production lines
Fang Xiangjian, vice president of Gree Electric Appliances Inc.Of Zhuhai(000651) introduced that Gree Electric Appliances Inc.Of Zhuhai(000651) cooperated with China United Network Communications Limited(600050) to achieve 100% coverage of 5g network in Zhuhai Gree headquarters park, and successfully built 5g private network in intelligent manufacturing field, providing Gree park with higher speed, wider bandwidth, lower delay, more secure and reliable network.
Combined with the technical characteristics of 5g, at present Gree Electric Appliances Inc.Of Zhuhai(000651) has implemented three typical applications – 5g + automatic electrical safety project based on 5g + machine vision positioning technology to realize automatic test of product electrical safety and automatic adjustment of equipment parameters; Based on 5g + AI behavior analysis technology, automatically identify and judge the 5g + AI monitoring of inspectors’ behavior; Centralized collection of quality inspection data and statistical analysis of reports in the production process, visual display of quality data, and 5g quality big data platform for abnormal fast closed-loop processing.
These applications have greatly improved the overall quality management level, improved work efficiency, reduced operation and maintenance and supervision costs, realized the paperless quality data of the production process, and saved more than 10 million yuan per year.
New starting point of traditional manufacturing and new demonstration of industrial interconnection
During the 14th Five Year Plan period, the digital transformation made Gree stand on the tide of a new era.
In terms of digital technology innovation, Gree is committed to investment and research in the field of new generation information technology, deepening the digital application of internal R & D and design, production and manufacturing, operation management, market service and other links, and providing Gree’s businesses and users at all levels with full process, full link and full channel data service capabilities.
On the basis of digital development, Gree uses digitization to promote the automation of production operations, making high automation the norm of Gree factory, and endowing machines, equipment, processes and systems with the ability of self perception, self-learning, self-decision-making, self-implementation and self adaptation.
In terms of digital management, Gree has opened up all internal management links, created a data-driven, agile and efficient operation and management system, promoted the popularization of visual management mode, and explored the application of new modes such as dynamic market response, resource allocation optimization and intelligent strategic decision-making.
In the development of intelligent manufacturing, Gree has strengthened the application of digital technologies such as 5g, big data and artificial intelligence, comprehensively improved the intelligent level of R & D and design, process simulation, production and manufacturing, equipment management and product testing, realized the dynamic optimization and accurate decision-making of the whole process, and developed an industrial Internet platform in line with enterprise and industry characteristics, At the same time, it will drive the digital transformation of upstream and downstream enterprises under the big platform.
In this regard, Fang Xiangjian said that intelligent manufacturing is the main direction of the future development of China’s manufacturing industry. As a representative of entity enterprises, Gree Electric Appliances Inc.Of Zhuhai(000651) has grown from a single household air-conditioning enterprise to a diversified industrial group, providing a powerful driving force for upgrading “made in China” to “made in China”.
5g enters the park and integrates innovation and intelligent upgrading
Xing Yan, senior vice president of government enterprise BG of Guangdong Unicom, introduced that in 2019, Guangdong Unicom joined hands with Gree Electric Appliances Inc.Of Zhuhai(000651) , built a 5g + MEC edge cloud + SA slice private network for it according to the demands of the production site for the network and the intelligent manufacturing business scenario planning, and sank to Gree Park, effectively meeting the needs of some businesses for ultra-low delay and no data out of the park.
Based on China Unicom’s self-developed MEC edge cloud platform, draw the deployment of more AI capabilities, and explore the cloud edge collaboration mode with the enterprise industrial Internet platform. With the continuous maturity of the industrial chain, China United Network Communications Limited(600050) through the 5g promotion service platform, radiates the project experience and application to the major bases of Gree Group in the country, and can also provide demonstration to the national household appliance manufacturing and other manufacturing enterprises, so as to further improve the networked and intelligent level of China’s manufacturing industry. Accelerate the implementation of the “5g application sailing action plan” to provide solid and strong support for digital transformation, intelligent upgrading, integration and innovation in various fields of economy and society.
