Interpretation of "Non-ferrous Metal Industry Intelligent Factory (Mine) Construction Guide (Trial)"

In April 2020, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the National Development and Reform Commission and the Ministry of Natural Resources jointly announced the "Guidelines for the Construction of Smart Factories (Mines) in the Non-ferrous Metals Industry (Trial)". The relevant contents of the "Guidelines for the Construction of Intelligent Factories (Mines) in the Non-ferrous Metals Industry (Trial)" are interpreted as follows.

Why the introduction of "non-ferrous metal industry intelligent factory (mine) construction guide (Trial)"?

Non-ferrous metal industry is a typical process industry, with a wide variety of raw materials, complex sources, long process, harsh working conditions and other characteristics. Overall, the level of intelligent manufacturing in the non-ferrous metal industry is relatively backward, and it is difficult to meet the needs of high-quality development. Among them, mining equipment mainly relies on manual driving, with high work intensity and high safety risks. There are many types of smelting equipment and sensitive sources of safety and environment, and the level of automation and control of enterprises is uneven, especially for small enterprises with backward process equipment and relying on manual operation. The situation of environmental protection and safety production is grim. The production and operation data of some processing enterprises are filled in paper, with insufficient online monitoring methods and low quality control capability, lack of flexibility in production organization.

Under the new situation of the vigorous development of a new round of scientific and technological revolution and the increasing constraints of resources and environment, enterprises generally realize the importance of intelligent manufacturing and accelerate the promotion of digitization and networking. Some enterprises have made breakthroughs in intelligent applications in local fields such as unmanned driving, intelligent diagnosis of equipment, automatic stripping of copper plates, etc, however, most enterprises are faced with problems such as unclear construction objectives and paths, fragmented construction contents, insufficient construction priorities, and difficulties in project promotion. Most of them are "crossing the river by feeling the stones", lack of system awareness, and serious information islands. It is very easy to fall into such misunderstandings as "emphasizing local transformation, neglecting overall optimization", "emphasizing business system construction, neglecting data value mining", "emphasizing construction and neglecting operation and maintenance.

In order to further promote the integrated innovation and integrated application of 5G, industrial Internet, artificial intelligence and other new generation information and communication technologies in the non-ferrous metal industry, and to provide top-level design and comprehensive guidance for enterprises to carry out intelligent manufacturing at the operational level, we have studied and compiled the construction guidelines for intelligent mines, intelligent smelting plants and intelligent processing plants in the non-ferrous metal industry, clarifying the construction objectives, construction paths, construction contents and basic support requirements.

How is the Guide for the Construction of Intelligent Factories (Mines) in the Non-ferrous Metals Industry (Trial) formulated? What are the overall considerations?

In April 2019, we started the compilation of non-ferrous intelligent manufacturing guidelines. Key enterprises such as Chinalco, Jiangxi Copper and CICC, scientific research institutes such as North Mining Institute, Enfei and China Color, and intelligent manufacturing suppliers such as Baoxin and Huawei set up three special drafting groups for mining, smelting and processing, and successively conducted intelligent manufacturing surveys on 21 non-ferrous enterprises in Fujian, Guangdong and Chongqing, fully drawing on the advanced experience of domestic and foreign and other industries, formed the first draft of "Guidelines for the Construction of Intelligent Factories (Mines) in the Non-ferrous Metals Industry (Trial). After the public announcement and soliciting opinions from six departments including the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Science and Technology, the Ministry of Natural Resources, the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, the Ministry of Emergency Management, and the State Administration for Market Supervision, it was further revised and improved.

What are the main construction contents of intelligent mines, intelligent smelting plants and intelligent processing plants? What are the construction priorities? How are they considered?

The Guide to the Construction of Intelligent Factories (Mines) in Non-ferrous Metal Industry (Trial) is based on the construction ideas of intelligent manufacturing in non-ferrous metal industry, such as "industry 2.0" supplementary lessons, "industry 3.0" popularization and "industry 4.0" demonstration ", and refers to the intelligent manufacturing system architecture in the Guide to the Construction of National Intelligent Manufacturing Standard System, and clearly defines the convergence and interconnection of resource elements through the digital transformation of infrastructure, information fusion and sharing are realized through the construction of intelligent production systems, and the development of new formats is promoted through the application of intelligent services based on service-oriented manufacturing. At the same time, in order to stimulate the vitality of enterprises, the" Guidelines for the Construction of Intelligent Factories (Mines) in Non-ferrous Metals Industry (Trial) "clarifies the requirements for the construction of collaborative innovation platforms based on industrial big data, and supports enterprises to carry out continuous data application innovation. From the specific construction content, enterprises should focus on the following aspects:

The first is the digital transformation and construction of infrastructure. The infrastructure mainly includes the application of new instruments and meters, the automation transformation of production lines, the application of complete sets of intelligent equipment, network deployment and information security construction. The intelligent mine compass is aimed at the positions of rock drilling, charging, supporting, shoveling and transportation in the production of non-ferrous mines with high labor intensity and harsh working environment (high temperature, dust, noise, etc.), guide enterprises to apply intelligent mining equipment with autonomous driving and autonomous operation functions, such as intelligent rock drilling jumbo, intelligent anchor jumbo, intelligent scraper, intelligent truck, intelligent charging truck, etc., to carry out rock drilling, charging, supporting, shoveling, transportation and other operations, so as to reduce the labor intensity of personnel and improve the intrinsic safety level.

Intelligent Smelting Plant Compass encourages non-ferrous smelting enterprises to establish advanced industrial control software based on mechanism model, experience model and simulation model to optimize production operation and equipment operation parameters due to difficulties in coordination, inability to predict and self-adjust, large fluctuation in extensive production, lagging process control response, limited manual experience and serious information island. Guide enterprises to carry out data collection and centralized monitoring, production organization and scheduling, production management and execution, enterprise management and business decision-making system construction, to achieve real-time monitoring, dynamic scheduling and collaborative optimization. The intelligent processing factory compass guides the non-ferrous processing enterprises to establish a production and operation control center to carry out data-based, visual real-time monitoring and unified production scheduling and centralized management of orders, plans, processes, quality, equipment, energy, safety and environment, personnel, etc. in the management area, aiming at the problems of many product varieties and specifications, small order batches, long production process routes, many parallel process paths, frequent logistics scheduling, etc, encourage enterprises to establish production planning and scheduling systems based on supply chains, data models and intelligent optimization algorithms to achieve large-scale personalized customization.

The third is the construction of intelligent service applications based on service-oriented manufacturing. In view of the urgent demand for remote operation and maintenance of key equipment such as rock drilling jumbo and scraper in non-ferrous mines, the low efficiency of bulk raw material procurement, storage and logistics, opaque process, asynchronous industry and wealth, scattered downstream customers, fast demand response speed and many personalized demands of non-ferrous processing enterprises, the guidelines for intelligent mines, smelting plants and processing plants focus on ensuring continuous production, guide enterprises to open up information channels between consumption and production, supply and manufacturing, products and services, integrate information resources, and reduce the overall cost of the supply chain. Encourage qualified enterprises to develop service-oriented manufacturing, innovate service models, promote equipment remote operation and maintenance, energy contract management and other industrial APP priority on the cloud, provide services for other enterprises in the industry, and effectively extend the enterprise industry chain.

Fourth, the construction of collaborative innovation platform based on industrial big data. In view of the problems of non-ferrous metal enterprises, such as insufficient data value mining, limited manual experience in process technology and enterprise management, and insufficient knowledge sharing, the guidelines for intelligent mines, smelting plants and processing plants encourage enterprises to build a collaborative innovation system based on industrial big data, stimulate the vitality and endogenous power of enterprises, and promote the knowledge precipitation and comprehensive sharing of enterprise process technology and management experience, the application and innovation of business scenarios such as equipment operation optimization, process parameter optimization, quality management optimization, production management optimization, and business decision optimization in the manufacturing process and business management activities of the enterprise.

How can enterprises promote the key work of information security, production safety, environmental protection and so on, which are highly concerned by the industry in the process of intelligent manufacturing?

In terms of information security, the "Guidelines for the Construction of Intelligent Factories (Mines) in the Non-ferrous Metals Industry (Trial)" proposes to conduct unified planning and design in accordance with the requirements of relevant documents such as the "Cyber Security Law" and "Guiding Opinions on Strengthening Industrial Internet Security Work", and improve information security Management system, focusing on industrial control network security, forming a technical guarantee system for active defense and comprehensive protection, improve information security situational awareness, monitoring and early warning, emergency response, tracking and traceability capabilities.

Environmental information realizes timely analysis, effective early warning and traceability control of potential environmental emergencies and major hazards.

How does the "Guidelines for the Construction of Intelligent Factories (Mines) in the Non-ferrous Metals Industry (Trial)" guide enterprises to use 5G, artificial intelligence, big data and other new generation information and communication technologies?

The "Guide to the Construction of Intelligent Factories (Mines) in the Non-ferrous Metals Industry (Trial)" clearly points out the need to promote the application of cutting-edge technologies such as the Internet, big data, artificial intelligence, 5G, edge computing, and virtual reality in non-ferrous enterprises, and gives specific application scenarios. For example, based on the advantages of large bandwidth of 5G network, ADAS (Advanced Driving Assistance System) technology should be used to carry out the construction of unmanned driving system in mines. Using artificial intelligence, machine learning and other technologies to establish virtual simulation models of key equipment and production processes, and guiding actual production through the construction of artificial intelligence batching and other systems; use big data technology to conduct a comprehensive analysis of customer distribution, industry, type, source, qualification, risk, etc., to tap customer needs in depth and provide support for business decisions.

How do enterprises implement the "Guidelines for the Construction of Intelligent Factories (Mines) in the Non-ferrous Metals Industry (Trial)"?

First, enterprises should change their understanding and establish a sense of responsibility of "giving priority to me. Intelligent manufacturing serves the strategy of enterprises. If enterprises want to achieve the expected results, they need to formulate tailor-made solutions based on their own regional characteristics, product positioning, process equipment, management mode and the basis of integration of the two. In addition, intelligent manufacturing projects are different from traditional "one-time turnkey" projects, involving enterprise business process optimization and management mode improvement, enterprise strategy evolution also needs relevant systems to be iteratively updated, which requires enterprises not to rely too much on external solution suppliers, to focus on me, in-depth participation.

Second, enterprises should make good plans and "be good at borrowing" to advance in an orderly manner. Intelligent manufacturing is a complex system engineering, which requires advanced concepts and professional talents. It is easy for enterprises to fall into misunderstandings. It is suggested that enterprises should clearly define their objectives and business requirements according to the "Guidelines for the Construction of Intelligent Factories (Mines) in Nonferrous Metals Industry (Trial)". For enterprises with insufficient experience in intelligent manufacturing construction, external intelligent manufacturing suppliers should be entrusted to carry out basic diagnosis, top-level design and project implementation, and internal employees should be organized to do a good job in the implementation plan and the quality and progress of the project from the perspectives of economy, applicability and advancement. At the same time, relying on the project to carry out intelligent manufacturing publicity and training for enterprise employees, training operation and maintenance team.

Third, enterprises should take safeguard measures and establish a normal operation mechanism. Intelligent manufacturing is closely related to the company's vision, business model, management system, and culture. In order to ensure that the expected results are achieved, the company must improve the organization, funds, and funds according to the basic support requirements in the "Non-ferrous Metal Industry Intelligent Factory (Mine) Construction Guide (Trial)" Talent and other safeguard measures, strengthen organizational leadership, set up full-time management and technical operation and maintenance positions, and formulate a special fund use management system, we will increase the introduction of talents and the training of compound talents, carry out the standardization of information resource management, and achieve normal operation.

How to actively promote the implementation of the "Non-ferrous Metal Industry Intelligent Factory (Mine) Construction Guide (Trial)?
