Recently, the China International Metallurgical Industry Exhibition was grandly held in Shanghai, and metallurgical machinery manufacturers from all over the world gathered together to showcase the latest technologies and products. With the theme of "Intelligent, Green and Efficient", this exhibition focused on displaying the latest achievements of the metallurgical industry in intelligent and digital transformation, as well as innovative technologies and equipment under the concept of green and low-carbon development.
At the exhibition site, intelligent and unmanned metallurgical equipment became the biggest highlight. The intelligent steelmaking system launched by a well-known domestic company has achieved automatic control of the entire process from raw material proportioning to steel production through artificial intelligence, big data and other technologies, greatly improving production efficiency and product quality. The unmanned overhead crane system displayed by another company uses 5G technology and precise positioning system to realize unmanned operation and remote monitoring of the overhead crane, effectively reducing labor costs and safety hazards.
The concept of green and low-carbon development also runs through the exhibition. Many companies have launched high-efficiency and energy-saving metallurgical equipment, such as new high-efficiency and energy-saving arc furnaces, waste heat recovery and utilization systems, etc., to help companies reduce energy consumption and reduce carbon emissions. In addition, green and low-carbon technologies such as hydrogen metallurgy and short-process steelmaking have also become the focus of the exhibition, providing new solutions for the metallurgical industry to achieve carbon neutrality goals.
Industry experts said that the current metallurgical machinery industry is facing a critical period of transformation and upgrading. With the rapid development of new-generation information technologies such as artificial intelligence, big data, and the Internet of Things, the metallurgical machinery industry will accelerate its transformation to intelligence and digitalization, and realize the automation, digitalization, and intelligence of the production process. At the same time, under the background of the "dual carbon" goal, green and low-carbon development will become the main theme of the industry, and metallurgical equipment with high efficiency, energy saving, environmental protection, and low carbon will usher in a broad market space.
In order to seize development opportunities, domestic metallurgical machinery companies should increase R&D investment, strengthen key core technology research, and improve product technology content and added value. At the same time, actively expand overseas markets, participate in international competition, and continuously enhance the international influence of Chinese metallurgical machinery brands.
