"Every piece of steel hides the secret of the rise and fall of a country." Over the past 70 years, China's iron and steel industry has experienced changes from scratch and from weak to strong. It is closely connected with the national economic development and social progress. Today, China's iron and steel industry has occupied "half of the world's iron and steel industry".

Pillar industry of national economy - steel industry

#Stage I # lifting weight limiter

In the past 20 years, Weite has been closely connected with the iron and steel industry, and has long been committed to the design, manufacture and service of safety protection products in the metallurgical industry. from National compulsory document of the first generation overload limiter beginsWeite has become a service provider for the safe development of lifting in the steel industry WISCO, Baotou Steel, Panzhihua steel, Nangang and Shaoguan SteelAnd other large state-owned iron and steel enterprises, and completed the transformation of lifting equipment safety technology products according to the requirements of national documents.

Weite's first step into the iron and steel metallurgy industry

As early as 2008, Weite began to cooperate with WISCO, Nanjing Iron and Steel Group and Guangdong Shaoguan Iron and Steel Group to assemble lifting equipment for steel plants load lifting limiter , from the early Wtz-a100 to wtz-a200The product is gradually upgraded and the function is more perfect to better protect the lifting equipment of the steel plant.

In 2010, Weite cooperated with Panzhihua Iron and Steel Co., Ltd. for the first time in the lifting capacity limiter reconstruction project! The project has progressed smoothly. So far, Pangang has become a long-term partner of Weite.

#The third stage # equipment informatization management

from "How is steel made?" To "how to make intelligent steel?"Iron and steel smelting is gradually getting rid of its traditional image and making a transformation towards digitalization and intellectualization driven by new technologies. For this purpose, Weite began to independently develop an intelligent management system for crane equipmentThrough data collection, analysis and management, we will help iron and steel enterprises improve operation efficiency, improve safety production, improve operation environment, and work together with iron and steel enterprises on the road of digital and intelligent transformation of the iron and steel industry.

On site discussion between Weite engineer and Panzhihua Steel Engineer

Weite united with iron and steel enterprises to jointly discuss and solve relevant problems from the front-line production links, and Informatization management of hoisting equipment developed by Panzhihua Iron and Steel Co., Ltd, find problems from the number of devices running, and The model formula and AI intelligent algorithm of video accurate grasping ladle at the joint research and development station of Fujian Quanzhou Minguang iron and Steel Co., LtdTo help solve the pain points in the field environment.

Intelligent management platform for micro and special equipment

Intelligent management is a process of promoting industrialization with informatization and realizing enterprise intellectualization. It is a process of integrating modern information technology with advanced management concepts, transforming enterprise production mode, operation mode, business process, traditional management mode and organization mode, re integrating enterprise internal and external resources, improving enterprise efficiency and efficiency, and enhancing enterprise competitiveness.

The intelligent management of equipment is from It is an information-based intelligent management process that tracks the whole life cycle of equipment delivery, on-line, use, maintenance and off-line。 Equipment management can provide Capacity quota, production scheduling, procurement, spot inspection and maintenanceAnd other departments to provide effective and objective guidance data and suggestions.

Weite wtcims-v2.0 lifting equipment intelligent management systemIt is an intelligent solution for steel plant equipment management developed by Weite. It is a comprehensive equipment management software and a shared work platform.

The system is designed for crane operation Equipment basic information, equipment operation management, daily status monitoring, material management and system managementThe five functional modules solve the closed-loop management of the whole life cycle of the crane, such as real-time status monitoring, data archiving, spot inspection and maintenance, spare parts cycle, hidden danger trend prediction, etc.

According to the two dimensions of crane service efficiency and online time, and in combination with the routine inspection and maintenance cycle Motor, wheel, reducer, wire ropeScientific analysis of the life of such important parts as spare parts, and give reasonable suggestions on the purchase time and quantity of spare parts and maintenance cycle to optimize management.

In 2019, due to the large number of production equipment in Pangang, the role of titanium refinery cranes in production cannot be underestimated. Several metallurgical bridge cranes in the plant are the main production equipment. Due to its rich performance and experience in the design and assembly of metallurgical crane monitoring system under high temperature environment, Weite participated in Improvement of monitoring system of metallurgical crane in Pangang， Intelligent management system of crane equipment customized for PangangIt greatly improves the safety production efficiency of the plant and provides a strong guarantee for safety production.

#Phase IV # online operation and maintenance diagnosis

In recent years, new technologies such as artificial intelligence, 5g, cloud computing and big data have developed rapidly, and all industries have set off a wave of digital transformation. As an important pillar of the national economy, the iron and steel industry is embarking on a high-quality intelligent development road.

Predictive maintenance system of metallurgical crane

For the metallurgical crane in the steel plant, it needs to be frequently hooked and unhooked when lifting the ladle and ladle. The plate hook needs to be hooked and unhooked. If the ladle is not completely dragged, the ladle will overturn and major accidents will occur. Micro special start Design, development and production of ladle station video intelligent management system。 Starting from 2020, The micro special station video intelligent management system has been successfully applied in Quanzhou Minguang steel, Baotou Steel and other steel plants。

Video monitoring system of micro special station

The metallurgical crane of the steel plant needs frequent hooking and unhooking when lifting the molten steel ladle and molten iron ladle. The false hooking and incomplete unhooking of the plate hook will lead to the overturning of the molten steel ladle and major accidents.

Weite wtsa-hdvs (800) Y-type workstation video monitoring systemIt is aligned at the ground fixed station Install the camera at the position of the ladle trunnion, in Monitor shall be installed for crane, finger lifting room and main control roomWhen the traveling crane of this span runs above the station, the three displays synchronously realize the hooking and decoupling process of the board hook, and completely solve the problem of Blind area, dim light, improper commandHook accident caused by the accident.

The station video monitoring system mainly includes: Fixed station solution, automatic tracking solution, display solution, endoscopic furnace front high temperature video system, station video remote centralized controlEtc.

The video system can store, play back and trace the historical shooting pictures of all stations. After the installation of the system, the management and production efficiency will be improved by more than 15%, and the safety guarantee will be 100%.

In 2021, Weite responded and implemented Made in China 2025Implement the strategic action program of manufacturing power and independently design and develop Wt-sms-yc safety monitoring remote management systemIt can not only meet the current practical needs of various users, but also meet the needs of multi equipment cluster management in the future. It is a necessary process to further improve the safety information management and equipment use and maintenance information management of lifting equipment in steel plants.

China implements manufacturing power strategy

Weite has always regarded quality as life, and won long-term cooperation with many large domestic steel enterprises with reliable quality and reputation. In the future, Weite technology will never forget its original intention, and its mission is to make the operation of lifting equipment more safe and reliable!
