Insight into the status of equipment to help Gree make production transparent
Driven by consumption upgrading, the home appliance industry is actively embracing intelligent manufacturing. As a leading national brand in the home appliance industry, Gree Electric Hefei Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Gree) has a complete ERP, MES and other information systems, but the underlying equipment still has the problem of data islands. Advantech's ECU-1051 series solution was introduced to help realize the networking and data collection of more than 500 sets of devices in the factory. Through real-time and uninterrupted data collection, detection and analysis of production equipment, the entire production process is "transparent", and then lean production is realized, which has become an important means for enterprises to improve the overall equipment performance and production efficiency.
Lightweight Deployment Optimize the efficient use of building energy
With the increasing scarcity of energy and the relevant policy guidance of national carbon neutrality and carbon standards, local governments require enterprises in the region to realize intelligent buildings when building new offices. Advantech's iBuilding solution uses the ECU-1051 IoT gateway to collect data from PLC devices through the Modbus/TCP protocol, transmits the data to the cloud platform through the MQTT protocol in the form of 4G, and establishes privatization deployment through the HPC-7282 lightweight server to realize real-time monitoring and management of building power supply and distribution systems, cooling and heating source systems, HVAC systems, elevators, fire protection, water, access control and other systems, realize remote operation and maintenance, and reduce operation and maintenance costs. At the same time, the effective management of energy-consuming equipment reduces unnecessary costs and energy consumption.
Rapid Deployment Cloud Management There is nowhere to hide the problem of pumping station operation and maintenance
At present, many pumping station monitoring is still carried out manually for on-site start and stop, and misoperation/delayed operation occurs from time to time, resulting in inaccurate monitoring, inadequate supervision, and frequent accidents. Advantech's ECU-1051 series smart gateways support data acquisition from various types of PLC controllers, and can be directly connected to the cloud platform Webaccess as BS architecture configuration software selected by the operator through the MQTT protocol to effectively collect, display, and analyze data. Real-time and accurate monitoring and fault warning for on-site equipment through remote control, remote hierarchical monitoring and management of equipment status, realize the interconnection of equipment, people, data and processes, seamlessly connect with enterprise ERP/CRM/mobile APP systems, remotely manage equipment location information, establish a product knowledge base, optimize product performance and supply chain management, and improve product competitiveness.
In the process of digitalization and intelligence in the field of industrial applications, in the face of equipment networking and remote operation and maintenance applications, industrial intelligent gateways, as important equipment for data collection and transmission of the Internet of Things, play an indispensable role in promoting the development of comprehensive industrial Internet of Things such as smart water, smart grid, smart construction site, and smart agriculture. Advantech's edge software Edgelink+ intelligent gateway ECU provides advanced insight into device connection and operation status through big data, and real-time device monitoring and energy consumption analysis, so that devices can learn to speak and applications become intelligent.
