IoT technology: The future of industrial equipment will be easier to operate

At present, IOT technology has made more achievements in the industrial field. Especially in steel, petrochemical, automobile manufacturing and other key industries, the development is relatively rapid. In the steel industry, for example, the application of RFID high-temperature electronic tags to probing torpedo cars, reporting the geometry of the torpedo cars to pour sites, and knowing the amount of steel available at known fill heights. It is understood that after the 90s of last century, China used advanced intelligent energy management systems and other intelligent control measures to monitor equipment-level energy consumption in real time and realized the analysis and optimization of energy efficiency indicators of yield, yield, material consumption and energy consumption Steel enterprises energy allocation and balance of scheduling, to achieve energy saving steel industry. He Haoran, senior technical director of Shanghai Baosight Software Co., Ltd., said in an interview that through software technology such as MES (Manufacturing Execution Management System), ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) and BI (Business Intelligence), the steel production, As links become more intelligent, decision-making analysis data is more accurate. The energy management system is to improve the level of energy use and management, optimizing energy management processes, to achieve the purpose of saving energy and reducing consumption. In addition, in the automotive industry, Zhou Jia-li said that the application of sensors can make the production control more intelligent and enhance product and style diversification, so that the production line to adapt to changes in production fluctuations.

Although China's industrialization progresses continuously and the level of industrial automation continues to improve, it faces many difficulties in the development of the smart industry and the network core technology needs to be further broken. Zhao Yong, TÃœV SÃœD Senior Functional Safety Manager at TUV told reporters that communication has gradually become an important and integral part of modern electronic / electrical / programmable safety-related systems. Industrial communication networks are of crucial importance. Modern industrial safety network agreement is based on the modern "field bus", through the addition of safety measures to achieve. "Fieldbus" is a communication network for interconnecting and operating industrial field devices, which is based on the physical layer, link layer and application layer of the OSI network protocol model. Currently, there are 17 kinds of communication networks according to their protocols and development organizations .

It is understood that the concept of "field bus" has enhanced the intelligence, openness, interoperability and interoperability among industrial equipment and systems to achieve better field adaptability, decentralization and low maintenance cost . In order to improve the safety on the basis of "Fieldbus", IEC61784-3 standard has been developed internationally to provide related network security processing requirements and public specifications. With the increasing demands and scope of equipment automation and interconnection, industrial safety network equipment will be inseparable from people's lives. In the future, many industrial and consumer network equipment at the bottom will need to operate remotely through the network. Therefore, a new trend is that, On the basis of network communication security, information security is also required to ensure the confidentiality, integrity and availability of information. Future industrial equipment operation will be more convenient, but the scope and depth of the corresponding network security technology requirements will also continue to increase.
