SST-PFB3-VME-2-E PLC, as the field controller of the equipment, is the “brain” to realize the automatic operation of the equipment, bears the heavy responsibility of linking the field equipment and monitoring system, and is the cornerstone of the field of intelligent manufacturing.
According to the data, China’s PLC system market size is expected to reach 16.54 billion yuan in 2023. Specifically, the market size of small PLC and medium and large PLC is 8.072 billion yuan and 8.468 billion yuan respectively, of which overseas brands are still carving up the Chinese market in large numbers. Under the “two-wheel drive” policy and demand, the wave of domestic substitution has swept through, after decades of rapid development, a number of PLC manufacturers with their own brands have emerged and can “arm wrestle” with overseas giants, Hollysys is one of the best.
Hollysys was founded in 1993, starting from the distributed control system, has more than 30 years of enterprise intelligent service experience, has undertaken dozens of national major scientific research projects, has 1000+ patents, is the vanguard of domestic substitution.
Today, Hollysys is anchoring the intelligent manufacturing upgrade and moving toward “lithium”.
First, “double carbon” goal oriented, Hollysys PLC into lithium intelligent manuSST-PFB3-VME-2-E facturing
On September 22, 2020, China proposed the goal of “carbon peak” and “carbon neutrality” at the 75th session of the United Nations General Assembly.
With the in-depth promotion of the “dual carbon” goal, a large market space has been formed in new energy vehicles and other segments, and lithium battery manufacturing has become one of the biggest beneficiaries.
Forecasts show that in 2025, the number of new energy vehicles in China will exceed 60 million, and the overall market value of the industry will break through the trillion mark. In this context, domestic lithium battery manufacturing enterprises mushroomed and blossomed everywhere.
However, there are both opportunities and challenges.
The production process of lithium batteries is complex and changeable, the functional reSST-PFB3-VME-2-E quirements of equipment are varied, and the requirements for reliability are also extremely strict. In the early days, China’s lithium battery production equipment has a certain degree of import dependence, but with the enhancement of domestic scientific research strength and the optimization of industrial structure in recent years, its localization rate has been significantly improved.
Although the current lithium production equipment has realized the transformation from early dependence on imports to today’s localization replacement, the localization rate of programmable controller PLC, as the “brain” of production equipment, is still less than 10%, which will undoubtedly affect the supply chain security of China’s lithium industry and become a hidden danger on the road to new energy development.
Therefore, in order to promote the sustainable development of the lithium battery industry, the independent and controllable capacity of PLC has become a top priority, and many domestic industrial control enterprises have also taken the opportunity to increase innovation and introduce more cost-effective and customized solutions.
But want to solve the higher level of pain points, but also need to have in the performance, compatibility, safety and other dimensions to comprehensively surpass the industry’s similar products appear, Hollyse’s high-profile entry into lithium is also based on this.
