5G integration accelerates the leap of industrial manufacturing towards "smart manufacturing"

2024-01-11

With the deepening integration of digitalization and intelligent technology with the manufacturing industry, advanced technologies represented by 5G are bringing new changes to the manufacturing industry with strong potential and integration effects. With the rapid development of intelligent manufacturing, the role of wireless connectivity centered on 5G in industrial manufacturing is becoming increasingly prominent. Recently, the reporter saw at Lenovo Tianjin Innovation Industrial Park's laptop automation intelligent production line that the robotic arm is cooperating with workers to complete a series of complex and delicate motherboard assembly processes such as SMT, reflow soldering, and solder paste inspection. "We have deployed more than 100 5G edge computing gateways in the workshop, which can collect all kinds of equipment data in real time and conduct edge computing, and quickly and accurately transmit it to the industrial Internet platform through the 5G private network, which is equivalent to adding an 'intelligent cerebellum' to traditional equipment." Li Bin, 5G intelligent manufacturing business manager of Lenovo Cloud Network Convergence Business Department, said that relying on the 5G private network advantages of Lenovo Cloud Network Convergence Technology, The operational details of employees and sensor data on automated production lines can be connected in real time, and each process can be recorded in real time and production traceability can be achieved. It is understood that Lenovo Tianjin Innovation Industrial Park is a highly informationized and intelligent industrial park of Lenovo Group that integrates production and manufacturing, research and development experiments, and digital display. Here, the automation rate of laptop production lines exceeds 60%, which is 2 to 3 times the industry's common level; The automation rate of the intelligent high-speed SMT production line has reached 80%, of which the automation rate of SMT is 92%, and the speed of component assembly can reach 172000 pieces per hour. In addition to the production workshop, 5G applications have even penetrated into other core control processes such as logistics and warehousing. Entering the logistics and warehousing workshop of Lenovo Tianjin Innovation Industrial Park, dozens of 5G AGVs (automatic freight robots) came into the eyes of the reporter. They shuttle between various production lines, can operate fully automatically and avoid personnel and obstacles. Due to the installation of a "sky eye" -5G camera at a high altitude in the work area, staff can monitor the operation of AGV in real time. If any deviation is found from the program settings, the system will automatically compare and correct it based on video data to improve production efficiency. In the central warehouse of Tianjin Innovation Industrial Park, which has a multi pass three-dimensional storage system and a 24 meter tray three-dimensional storage system, all stackers and multi pass vehicles are remotely controlled using 5G networks. Through intelligent scheduling algorithms, visual AI, digital twins, and other means, this warehouse can operate normally in black or low light scenarios, reducing electricity consumption by 60%. "3T" integration is gradually becoming a trend. Li Bin said that in the application of 5G networks in manufacturing production, Lenovo Tianjin Innovation Industrial Park has explored three practices: firstly, based on a universal server, the entire 5G network is built on a software defined architecture. In the future, software upgrades can be used to make 5G networks more functional and prepare for future 5.5G and 6G standard practices; The second is to use 5G for remote control for the first time and promote its application to the core links of industrial production control; The third is to build a resource pool of computing power and network, utilizing the scalability of the network,
