Abstract

Based on deep understanding of benchmark smart factories, committed to becoming a whole-plant solution provider for lithium battery customers, offering intelligent manufacturing empowerment, starting from dimensions like production, equipment, quality, energy, logistics to empower the lithium battery industry's smart manufacturing upgrade.

Facing the TWh era, power battery capacity expands rapidly towards extreme manufacturing, requiring battery companies to optimize upgrades in plant design, equipment selection, production line planning, production control, and仓储 logistics.

 

According to incomplete statistics, the number of new lithium battery factories in China has grown rapidly in recent years, with over 50 new battery factories built in 2022 alone. In this process, how to achieve rapid production line replication, accelerate capacity ramp-up, and reduce the gap between planned and actual capacity has become urgent issues for battery companies.

Dr. Li Nan, General Manager of GeChuangDongZhi New Energy Business Unit

On November 14, the 2022 High-Tech Lithium Battery Annual Conference officially opened at the JW Marriott Hotel in Shenzhen Qianhai. In the power battery session sponsored by DaCheng Precision, Dr. Li Nan, General Manager of GeChuangDongZhi New Energy Business Unit, delivered a keynote speech titled "From Whole-Plant Planning to Implementation, Assisting in the Construction of Lithium Battery Benchmark Smart Factories".

Dr. Li Nan stated that lithium battery companies currently place great importance on intelligent manufacturing, but have not achieved ideal results in final implementation.

 

One reason for these issues is insufficient consideration during factory design and planning初期, leading to ongoing equipment modifications and layout optimizations.

 

For example, during factory planning, not considering future automated logistics systems resulted in issues like insufficient通道 width or unsuitable ground conditions for AGVs when introducing them later; factory building height and floor load design were inadequate for立体 warehouse construction, causing low transportation efficiency; equipment production节奏 did not meet standards during actual operation, leading to design capacity release falling short of expectations.

 

"The core of intelligent manufacturing is to utilize data well, using data analysis to guide quality analysis, optimization, and cost reduction, but various problems are encountered during implementation."

On the other hand, in Li Nan's view, lithium battery companies may face the following issues in advancing intelligent manufacturing:

 

No data to collect: For instance, in coating面 density analysis, some key parameters of coating machines cannot be automatically collected, hindering equipment optimization and industrial智能 application implementation;

 

Data hard to collect: Data is stored in equipment, but前期 lack of communication规范 constraints with equipment suppliers leads to spending 3-6 months on data collection and protocol parsing after equipment arrival, wasting time;

 

Data hard to use:前期 failure to standardize data fields with equipment manufacturers results in poor data quality for cross-business applications like product quality full-lifecycle traceability, making it unusable.

 

Regarding this, Dr. Li Nan believes that lithium battery smart factory design requires organic integration of factory design, factory planning, and intelligent manufacturing planning, with factory and intelligent manufacturing planning内容前置, to effectively build benchmark smart factories.

 

In terms of factory planning前置 and integration, through value stream simulation evaluation and system simulation, build a digital twin system to achieve factory layout verification and continuous optimization.

 

In terms of intelligent manufacturing planning前置 and integration,前置 the standards for设备互联, energy, and business applications in planning, providing前瞻 guidance for equipment procurement and factory construction, ensuring rapid smart factory implementation.

 

Based on deep understanding of benchmark smart factories, GeChuangDongZhi is committed to becoming a whole-plant solution provider for lithium battery customers, offering intelligent manufacturing empowerment, starting from dimensions like production, equipment, quality, energy, logistics to empower the lithium battery industry's smart manufacturing upgrade.

GETECH is an industrial internet enterprise strategically incubated by TCL, and also a 2022 MIIT-certified national "Cross-Industry Cross-Domain Industrial Internet Platform" company. For the lithium battery industry, GETECH can provide full-chain services from whole-plant consulting planning to system software implementation, helping lithium battery companies build benchmark smart factories. Currently, GeChuangDongZhi's business covers the entire new energy industry chain, including lithium battery materials, equipment, battery manufacturing, recycling, and new energy vehicles.

 

Addressing the urgent need for power battery intelligent manufacturing upgrade, GETECH will collaborate with manufacturing companies, design institutes, and equipment manufacturers to explore smart factory construction standard systems for the lithium battery industry, empowering its rapid development.
