“Smart Mining Solution Powered by 5G and Industrial Internet – Huawei and Shaanxi Coal Company”

YULIN, Chine, 28 avril 2023 /CNW/ — The smart mining solution powered by 5G and the Industrial Internet that was jointly developed by Huawei and Shaanxi Coal Industry Co., Ltd. (Shaanxi Coal Company) passed a one-year milestone, marking a full year of continuous operation. The solution leveraged technologies like 5G, cloud computing and artificial intelligence, and related digital applications, to dramatically improve production efficiency and operational safety at Shaanxi Coal mines. Company. This makes the case for a smart upgrade for the global mining industry and provides a benchmark for the application of the Industrial Internet in other industries.

The solution integrated information and communication technology into every step of the coal mining process to eliminate silos and enable data sharing. The implementation of the solution promotes intelligent collaboration between safety assurance, production, operation, energy conservation, environmental protection and other systems, and has improved the efficiency during geological exploration, tunneling, mining and more. The solution is also the first of its kind to use an industrial internet platform with a three-tier architecture from the Shaanxi Coal Company, its mining subsidiaries and the coal mines themselves. This platform enabled collaborative management and control, intelligent detection and efficient decision-making.

Xu Jun, chief technology officer of Huawei Mine BU, said his company has worked with Shaanxi Coal Company’s Hongliulin and Xiaobaodang coal mines to develop new practices and applications that meet the special requirements of coal production. In this process, Huawei has leveraged its acquired expertise in 5G, artificial intelligence, cloud computing, big data and other technologies, as well as its ability to integrate global resources. This partnership has created a new model of smart mining for the industry. More specifically, the smart mining solution can build virtual mines that act as the digital twins of underground physical mines, generating greater value with the massive amounts of mining data in a safer and more efficient manner.

As a result, Hongliulin Coal Mine now has 18% fewer underground workers. Additionally, 97.7% of its mine walls now support smart mining, and smart management has been made possible for the underground face of the mine through 5G video stitching and video calls. More than 2,700 sets of equipment at the mine are now interconnected using unified data standards, with 170 million pieces of data flowing into the data lake every day. This data was used to create more than 100 digital models. This data can also be used to inform production and operations decision-making and to develop new digital applications using zero-code development tools.

Xiaobaodang Coal Mine has also used 5G and other technologies to enable smart mining processes, management and equipment, greatly improving operational safety and production efficiency. The underground mine workforce is reduced by 42%. Major mine facilities, such as pump rooms and underground substations, achieved intelligent unattended operations through mechanical patrol inspection and video collaboration. In terms of production safety, environmental monitoring devices are able to autonomously detect gas accumulation, fires, floods, ventilation problems and geological events, as well as ‘issue related warnings, and they enable real-time data interconnection. This can support more informed decision-making to greatly improve mine safety management.

Mr. Xu said, “The industrial Internet is the foundation of smart mining. Huawei Mine BU is committed to working with partners and mining companies to bring digital technology to every mine and build smart mines with the Industrial Internet faster. To achieve this goal, he explained, Huawei is working to provide digital services to major coal and metal mining companies around the world to enable safer and more efficient smart mine management with fewer personnel working underground. .
