On 22 April, Mr. Zhang Shuguang, Chairman of AUDIOWELL, attended the summit forum themed 2023 China (Zhongshan) Artificial Intelligence and Testing Technology and gave a keynote speech on "Changes brought by Intelligent Sensors to Industrial Instrumentation", which demonstrated that the intelligent sensors will empower industrial instrumentation with powerful measurement and metrology, data analysis, intelligent control and operational interactions, which are the key elements for the iterative optimisation of future industrial instrumentation.
The era of intelligent instrumentation
With the development of intelligent sensors, their application in the industrial field drives the development of instrumentation technology, so that the instrumentation is no longer a simple hardware entity, but a combination of microprocessors, with software, hardware integrated intelligent instrumentation
With more than 20 years of experience in the field of intelligent sensors and focusing on the development of products and solutions for the instrumentation industry to improve quality and efficiency, Mr. Zhang Shuguang, Chairman of AUDIOWELL, demonstrated in his speech a product solution for manufacturing enterprises to “save water intelligently and increase production without increasing pollution” --- Industrial Intelligent Water Management Solution.
Industrial Intelligent Water Management Solution
The solution is composed of two major parts: intelligent water manager as hardware and intelligent monitoring system as software, combining advanced technologies such as multi-source sensing, cloud computing, and two-way communication to provide manufacturing enterprises with real-time monitoring of flow rate and water quality changes, remote control of water quantity, and intelligent and dynamic adjustment of the applicable water quantity, etc., so that they can realize the effects of energy-saving water consumption and green production without increasing pollution under the prerequisite of ensuring the quality of production.
4G network connection, two-way communication
The data collected by the intelligent water manager in the program can be uploaded in real time through 4G communication, and work with the industrial Internet platform responsible for the general control to realize two-way feedback of information
Precise water control, saving water by more than 15%
Certified by a professional third-party metrology and testing company, the water control accuracy of AUDIOWELL's industrial intelligent water management program is<0.33L/Min. In actual application, many manufacturing enterprises using this program have saved water by more than 15%.
Open interface, support for the expansion of multiple perceptions
Intelligent water manager reserved 485 interface, so that the scope of application of the product is more open; at the same time, it supports the expansion of a variety of sensors and other components, such as PH value sensors, conductivity sensors, photoelectric switches, etc., so that the product perception is more diversified, and is more in line with the multi-functional, highly integrated industrial instrumentation future development needs.
Cloud monitoring, remote and efficient
Industrial intelligent water management program with flow monitoring, data statistics, abnormal alarms and other functions, through the cloud intelligent monitoring system visualization interface, can be more intuitive, clear understanding of the water system's operating status and parameters; at the same time, computers, tablets, cell phones and other clients can be synchronized with all the dynamics of the water system, administrators can be anytime, anywhere, remote control of the water system, efficient and convenient.
Virtual instrumentation era
From another dimension, instrumentation technology is iterating towards the stage of “virtual instrumentation”. The virtualization of instrumentation makes instruments with the same structure more flexible and reconfigurable, while improving performance and reducing costs, and this change is mainly due to the addition of smart sensors.
Taking the MLCT haptic feedback actuator independently developed by AUDIOWELL as an example, its application on the intelligent interactive screen of the instrumentation can realize multiple interfaces working at the same time during the operation, reduce the redundant buttons and switches design, and make the equipment more concise and intelligent, providing a safer and more reliable production environment for the industrial manufacturing.
In the future, intelligent sensors will continue to develop in the direction of intelligence, multi-functionality, precision and networking, becoming an indispensable key part of industrial instrumentation, empowering industrial development and creating greater economic and social benefits.
