ABB became popular in Qingdao, with "soft" strength in addition to "hard" changes.

In Qingdao at the end of July, the blue sea is clear and the waves are clear, and the sails are racing! But these days, it is not the beautiful scenery that attracts everyone's attention, but the cutting-edge digital technologies such as artificial intelligence, deep learning, 5G and edge computing.

data show that in 218, the revenue of China software industry was 6.3 trillion, up 14.2% year-on-year. In China, the role of software innovation engine is increasingly prominent. Qingdao, relying on a solid industrial base, has reached 2 billion in 218, with a growth rate higher than the national average growth rate of .9%.

the leap-forward development can't be separated from the promotion of industrial brands. This time, ABB launched an assist and brought a number of star products to the 219 World Industrial Internet Industry Conference and the 219 Qingdao International Software Integration and Innovation Expo, creating a unique "intellectual creation" feast with the theme of "digital technology empowering intelligent manufacturing, smart city and smart energy".

both "soft" and "hard"

"In 218, our business in software and digital services grew by more than 1%." According to Zhang Zhiqiang, president of ABB (China) Co., Ltd., ABB has been building software and connectivity into its equipment and systems for nearly 4 years to help them run better. At present, ABB has installed 7 million interconnected devices around the world, with 7, running control systems and 6, enterprise software solutions.

In recent years, ABB has continuously accelerated its layout in digital technology, and launched ABB Ability two years ago. Since the digital platform, this digital invisible champion has officially moved from "behind the scenes" to "front desk".

nowadays, ABB Ability? Further integrate ABB's ability from device to edge computing to cloud, the latest release of ABB Ability? The remote condition monitoring scheme of digital transmission device includes intelligent monitoring of motor, frequency converter, pump and bearing, which can improve the operation efficiency, predictability and safety of the whole transmission device and equipment, and prolong the service life of the equipment. During the exhibition, ABB Ability? The intelligent sensor provides remote condition monitoring service for the air conditioning system of the main exhibition hall and conference building of Qingdao International Conference Center, and realizes intelligent interconnection. The operation and health data of the motor in the computer room will be sent to the cloud by wireless, and will be viewed in real time on the display screen at ABB booth, which will protect the air conditioning operation of the exhibition hall and conference building.

intelligent integration

up to now, ABB has successfully launched 22 sets of ABB Ability? Solutions to meet customers' needs for improving production efficiency and safety and reducing costs.

in fact, whether it's performance management solutions for asset-intensive industries, remote monitoring services for robots, motors and mechanical equipment, control solutions for buildings, offshore platforms and electric vehicle charging infrastructure, and professional solutions to meet the needs of data center energy management and ocean fleet route optimization. These intelligences are integrated into ABB Ability? The digital solution of the platform has not only been verified in practice, but also won the approval of users.

“ABB Ability? It brings together all our digital products, solutions and services, each of which stems from ABB's unique industry knowledge, unique insight into industrial data and innovative digital technology expertise. " Zhang Zhiqiang said frankly that by transmitting more information through equipment, systems, solutions, services and platforms, ABB Ability? It can drive the value chain upgrade of various industries, and create real business value for customers while building an all-round interconnected ecosystem.

to continue the "frontier"

in 197, ABB provided China with the first steam boiler, which started a century-long trip to China. "This equipment is installed in Qingdao." Mention the fate with Qingdao, Zhang Zhiqiang infinite emotion.

Today, Qingdao and even Shandong have become one of ABB's important markets in China. Haier Group, Gaoce Technology, Double Star Group, Shandong Lingong, etc. are all important customers and partners of ABB. ABB's innovative technologies and digital solutions have also been used in many local projects, such as the fully automated container terminal of Qingdao Port, the intelligent building control system and intelligent power distribution facilities at the main venue of the SCO Qingdao Summit, the power facilities of the "Beautiful Qingdao" project, and the Qingdao factory of BAIC New Energy.

During this activity, ABB also signed strategic cooperation agreements with shandong energy Heavy Equipment Manufacturing Group Co., Ltd., Linyi Aozheng Real Estate Development Co., Ltd., Shandong Luyitong Intelligent Electric Co., Ltd., Qingdao Chengyang Urban Construction Electromechanical Co., Ltd. and Qingdao Gaoce Technology Co., Ltd..

"Our cooperation with ABB began with the integration of control systems by B&R, and their professional support enabled us to maintain our continuous leading ability. By establishing strategic cooperation with ABB Group this time, we can step into a smarter era with the help of ABB's overall integration ability in the fields of robots and digital factories, * * * build an ecosystem of innovation and development, and * * * promote industrial development." Zhang Wei, chairman of Qingdao Gaoce Technology, said.

in the era of scientific and technological revolution and industrial revolution, I believe that with the digital strength of ABB's innovation of "soft" and "hard", it will help users to answer the required question of "transformation and upgrading of intelligent manufacturing".
