How does 5G deterministic network help fiberglass production move towards intelligence?
The 5G network coverage rate exceeds 90%, the number of networked devices reaches more than 150, the production efficiency is increased by 25%, the quality inspection efficiency is increased by 20%, the yield rate reaches more than 98%, and the misjudgment rate is less than 0.01%... Since the beginning of this year, under the intelligent empowerment of China Telecom's 5G private network, Chongqing International Composite Materials Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "International Composite Materials") has ushered in a new transformation in the 5G smart factory built by 5G and Internet of Things technology - the production park has achieved full connection between people, machines and objects, and the company's production efficiency and product quality have reached the leading level in the industry. The company has been successfully selected into the national industrial Internet pilot demonstration list.
As an important pillar enterprise in China's fiberglass industry, the new glass fiber materials produced by International Composite Materials are widely used in building materials, electronic appliances, aerospace and other fields. The company's total fiberglass production capacity accounts for about 44% of the global production capacity. In order to further develop new quality productivity and realize the "smart manufacturing" leap, International Composite Materials actively embraces the wave of digitalization and vigorously promotes the construction of 5G smart factories.
How to open up the core production links of industrial manufacturing through digital intelligence technology? Tianyi IoT, Chongqing Telecom, and China Electronics Intelligent Network adopted China Telecom Ruyi 5G customized network mode for the two major parks of International Composites Changshou and Dadukou, deployed 5G confirmed private network, and gave full play to the core capabilities of Tianyi IoT's self-developed 5G confirmed private network of "end-to-network collaboration, multi-network integration, and integration of communication and intelligence". Through a package of digital services such as "network construction", "network connection", and "network use", the information interconnection and integration between key technical equipment in the factory was realized, and 16 industrial Internet applications such as fiberglass industrial high-definition visual quality inspection, AGV intelligent transportation, and 5G+remote AI visual quality inspection were created, promoting enterprises to create a national "5G+Industrial Internet" demonstration benchmark.
In terms of "network construction", the two major parks of International Composites Changshou and Dadukou deployed China Telecom Ruyi 5G customized network, with a 5G network coverage rate of over 90%. For the core production links, the 5G confirmed private network provides low-latency and highly reliable network services, fundamentally eliminating the problem of "disconnection" of equipment caused by interference and packet loss.
In terms of "networking", based on the 5G deterministic network, by deploying deterministic industrial gateways, it provides key capabilities such as high-precision time synchronization, TSN protocol cluster traffic shaping, precise gated forwarding, dual-transmission selection and reception, and endogenous scheduling algorithms, so as to achieve safe, real-time and reliable transmission of data of various production equipment in the park; breaking the communication bottleneck of core equipment such as AGV and automatic yarn unwinding robot, so that enterprises can achieve comprehensive connection between people, machines and objects, and achieve a 25% increase in production efficiency, with more than 150 networked devices.
In terms of "network use", 16 industrial Internet applications such as high-definition visual quality inspection of glass fiber industry, AGV intelligent transportation, and 5G+ remote AI visual quality inspection have been created. For the high-definition visual quality inspection scenario of fiberglass industry, by deploying 5G network, the real-time transmission of high-definition images is realized, which solves the problem of missed inspection caused by manual inspection and greatly improves product quality. By overlaying Tianyi IoT 5G on the AGV intelligent transportation system to determine the dual-transmission, selection and reception, and jitter control capabilities of the private network, the full connection of production factors such as people, machines, materials, methods, and environments is achieved, ensuring the automation of the entire process from cargo handling to material distribution, greatly improving the network transmission reliability and remote scheduling stability of AGV vehicles. In the 5G+ remote AI visual quality inspection service, based on the high reliability and low latency of the 5G network, automatic detection and early warning of remote yarn flying is achieved, helping to improve quality inspection efficiency by more than 20%, with a yield rate of more than 98% and a misjudgment rate of less than 0.01%.
