Deeply devoted to Honeywell in China to boost the development manufacturing

After nearly 40 years of rapid development, made in China has become an important pillar of global industry. Today, more than 90% of laptops, 80% of air conditioners, 70% of mobile phones and 64% of solar panels are made in China. In 2011, China replaced the United States as the world's largest industrial value-added contributor. However, another problem that can not be ignored is that China's manufacturing industry will also face severe challenges in the new information age. "Although China's process industry is catching up with the rest of the world in terms of sustainable, high-quality manufacturing, many enterprises still don't know where to start. Honeywell has been a leader in process industry automation technology and solutions for decades, so it has the ability to share our excellent practical experience, knowledge and insights with Chinese enterprises. We are honored to participate in China's sustained growth in recent years and are committed to providing strong support for the long-term development of China's partners. " Chen Yan, vice president and general manager of Greater China of Honeywell process control department, said earnestly at the scene of the first white paper of process industry intelligent factory released by Honeywell on October 16.

In China's process industry, Honeywell has a deep accumulation in automation technology and petrochemical refining technology. The white paper of intelligent factory in process industry - from insight to achievement released this time will focus on the digital transformation of process industry, the current situation of the industry and the development trend of the industry in the future, so as to provide corresponding consulting services for enterprises and governments. With China's emphasis on intelligent manufacturing and the development of information technology, in the future, China's manufacturing industry will gradually realize the transformation and upgrading of enterprises from digitalization, interconnection to intelligence, and the intelligent factory will increasingly become the symbol of China's future manufacturing industry. According to the white paper released this time, in the future, the development of smart factories will overcome many challenges, and some disruptive technologies will be widely used in the process industry of smart factories, such as cloud computing, virtualization, digital tools, data interconnection, virtual reality technology, intelligent analysis, etc. How to become a successful "process industry intelligent factory"?

In the white paper, a successful process industry intelligent factory is defined as: automation, digitalization and intellectualization of production and management in the whole life cycle from process design, engineering construction to production operation management should be considered, and mature and landing advanced technology should be adopted from automatic control to intelligent operation management Technology helps enterprises to achieve the goal of safety production, cost reduction and efficiency increase, and improve decision-making efficiency. Through the deployment of data-driven strategy, enterprises can finally achieve digital transformation. The overall goal of process industry intelligent factory is to ensure process safety, improve production efficiency and improve decision-making efficiency. It has several major features: optimization decision-making based on model and real-time data analysis, accumulation and inheritance of experience knowledge, integration from digital delivery of design engineering to intelligent operation, enabling digital transformation of enterprises. According to the white paper, the implementation path of process industry intelligent factory can be seen from two dimensions: first, different application levels vertically. These application levels are respectively: field control level, operation business level, enterprise management level, a complete and successful intelligent factory. Instead of starting from the point, it should be considered comprehensively to realize comprehensive intelligent work from the field level to the enterprise level, remove the short board, and ensure better performance.

Horizontal implementation process. Make full use of the digital deliverables in the design stage to realize the digital construction and transformation of the whole life cycle from the preliminary design, detailed design, procurement construction to start-up / production. In practical application, the intelligent factory is not a static existence, but a dynamic intelligent upgrading process based on the actual situation of the factory and guided by the results, to realize the upgrading from the most primary automation control level to the high-level interconnected factory. From theory to practice, Honeywell has rich experience. In fact, Honeywell, which has long cultivated in the Chinese market, has used its theory and experience to provide a series of intelligent services for many partners in China, and has provided great help in their intelligent transformation and upgrading process. Shandong Wanhua Chemical Group Co., Ltd. located in East China is one of Honeywell's long-term partners. In the process of promoting the company's intelligence, Wanhua has adopted the process reliability advisor of Honeywell Internet factory to monitor its propane to olefin unit in Yantai plant, Shandong Province. "It's like sending our world's best engineers and scientists to the side of the Wanhua propane dehydrogenation unit, using their profound knowledge and technology to serve Wanhua chemical, and achieving the optimal operation of their unit." Wei Danhua, director of research and development of UOP China, said confidently. In the wave of digitalization and intelligence, how to combine machine learning, big data and automation technology to provide manufacturing enterprises with higher efficiency, sustainability and quality control is a major concern of every manufacturing enterprise in this wave. Honeywell is at the forefront of this technological innovation. It can provide a new generation of automation technology foundation and capabilities, and has a deep understanding of petroleum refining, papermaking, mining and other industries
