抚顺新钢铁智造中心大厅
冶炼工厂以往给我们的印象就是高大的厂房 , 灰黑色的建筑，生产车间两侧开启一排排玻璃窗，工厂上空弥漫着红色的粉尘。厂房内天车吊着钢包在工人们头上运行，钢花四溅的炉前炼钢工用力挥舞着钢钎……
20 世纪 60 年代，中国人民银行发行的第三套人民币 5 元纸币的正面，一位头戴鸭舌帽的炼钢工人，形象生动、有力、传神，作为中国工人阶级的代表，成为激情燃烧的岁月里火红的记忆。
随着改革开放、工业革命的进步，尤其是进入新世纪、新时代，工业完成了由 2.0、3.0 到 4.0 的转变，现代化被智能化取代，工业生产实现了本质性的飞跃。
抚顺市新钢铁责任有限公司就是其中代表之一。
一进抚顺市新钢铁责任有限公司大门，迎面映入眼帘的是玻璃幕墙和钢结构的现代建筑，红色的“智造中心”四个大字，让人有置身新型高科技产业园区的感觉。
步入新钢铁智造中心大厅，像进入一尘不染的科技展馆，高高的举架，直线条的结构设计，空旷高远，给我们带来耳目一新的巨大震撼，颠覆了对冶炼工厂的认知和理解。
一楼集中控制大厅坐着几十名员工，每个人同时操作面前的多台电脑，这些控制人员过去分布在不同车间管理岗位、高炉旁的操作间。现在，80% 的车间控制人员聚集在这里，通过网络视频和数据进行远端操控。每个班有近 70 人负责生产、经营、管理的全面协调、控制，成为工厂的大脑和眼睛。
“智造中心”作为抚顺新钢铁的灵魂——指挥中心，百余块屏幕上滚动着各项生产数据，操作人员只需敲击几下键盘便能控制整个生产流程。二三楼是各个管理部门专业工程师、管理人员的工作区域，他们通过系统提供的实时分析数据，发现异常，马上制定解决方案，为一楼智造中心提供冶金流程的集中调度和科学赋能。
在显示屏上，主控人员打开一个班组的操作界面，呈现出生产流程、关联事项的对话框。当班师傅介绍说：“以前总结各班运行状况以‘日’为单位，第二天上班才能进行校正。上了智能系统后，点开对话框便知道当时生产状态，及时修正各种参数，下班前就能拿到班组的‘成绩单’。”
智造中心每天新增8.5亿数据量，作为一个高效的管理平台，最大的优势是能将企业产量、成本、产品质量等起到关键作用的制造流程，让全员参与，从而推进生产经营管理的精细化和科学化。其中，煤气系统控制环节全流程智能燃烧，被中国钢铁协会鉴定为国际先进水平。
“5G+冶金全流程”的智能制造，如果用一场战争作比，就是把传统机械化的大规模作战，转变为电子化的微机操控 , 一个中心管到底。从基站选址到服务器对接，5G专网的搭建，抚顺新钢铁率先在冶炼行业开启了应用新模式，成为辽宁首个迈入 5G 时代的钢铁企业。
抚顺新钢铁智造中心外景
数据是新钢铁数字化转型的关键，智造中心通过 plc 数据收集站、传感器等采集生产数据，依据公司管理需求，利用数字化转型，打破传统部门边界，打造管理数字化、制造智能化、工艺产品绿色化、厂区景观化和建筑业综合服务平台。
抚顺新钢铁成立于 2005 年 10 月，由始建于 1958 年的原抚顺新抚钢有限责任公司经改制重组的一家民营控股的大型混合所有制钢铁企业，主要产品用于高速公路、铁路、地铁、机场、港口、核电等重点工程项目，是国内建筑用钢知名品牌、东北区域建筑用钢龙头品牌，中铁、中建、中交等央企的重要战略合作伙伴。
抚顺新钢铁改制后，以制造中心、经营中心、科研工程中心三个板块为核心，实现采购、生产、销售的高效协作，提高企业运行效率，逐步实现企业由传统管理向现代管理的根本性转变。
以前，厂区内的露天货场堆满废旧钢铁、燃料以及杂物；工人身穿蹭满油渍的工装，戴披肩帽、护目镜、长手套，手握钢钎，在轰鸣的噪音和火光中穿行。
如今，这一景象退出了历史舞台。在炼钢作业区，已不见工人身影，控制室内的技术工人通过电脑屏幕观察炉火亮度与形状来判断炉渣情况，5G 设备安装使用和智慧炼钢让冶炼工作环境和作业方式焕然一新。
身处大数据的新时代，每名工人服从于编码和秩序，好似工厂这部机器上的一颗螺丝钉，无论怎样变化、转换，排列组合，从 0 到 9 能演绎无穷的能量。如同大写、小写，或者中英文的名字，占有自己的位置，真实、独一无二，被纳入程序的网格，成为冶炼过程中重要的部分。
5G 给新钢铁冶炼生产插上了腾飞的翅膀
5G让抚顺新钢铁有了根本改变，无论安全生产还是技术的全面提升，实现了网络化生产流程管理，再也不用担心人在冶炼时的高风险，把人从生产一线的高危岗位解放出来。
几年前，抚顺新钢铁人力资源部都为招聘操作人员而头疼。好不容易招到了人，耗时费力培训，上岗工作一段时间，就经常有员工因为工作环境差、有安全风险而离开。
抚顺新钢铁与联通公司签订的无人行车和铁水罐车改造项目，利用5G+ 机器视觉、5G+ 传感器模组，采集机车自动驾驶中的信息以及高清回传、虚拟现实、模拟操控等技术，实现机车的远程控制，不需要人工操作，大幅提升行车和铁水罐车的安全性。
仅此项目的 5G 实施，减少铁水温降 3-5℃，可节约 700 万元；优化生产衔接 6%，可节约 300 万元；减少人员及培训成本，可节省520万元。在高压配电房，一个小黄车在高压电表前自动行走，装备制造部主任指着小黄车介绍说：“这是巡检机器人，这个机器人是利用 5G 网络技术，按时按路线检查高压配电房、易燃易爆气罐区等高危区域的安全风险问题。利用 5G+UWB 高精定位结合电子围栏，实现精准实时定位，提高安全的管控。”
记得以前冶炼厂房的天车，在哨音指挥下，拖着一串刺耳的响铃，在炼钢工人头顶上急冲冲开过来，又带着呼啸的风声开过去，天车事故时有发生。
今天，抚顺新钢铁依托 5G+ 超高清视频技术，进行无人天车远程操控试验，将多路多视野的超高清视频实时传送到服务器端，并以超低时延的动作反馈，进行对远端的天车远程驾驶。
这是一场 5G 赋能冶炼生产的革命，是 5G 给新钢铁冶炼生产插上了腾飞的翅膀。

You may still remember the third set of the RMB paper notes issued by the People's Bank of China in 1962. They went out of circulation in 2000. On the front side of the 5 yuan note, an image of a steelworker is seen wearing a peaked hat. As a representative of the Chinese working class, he is full of vigor, and this vivid and expressive image has become a reminder of the flaming years of passion and faith.
Along with the reform and the progress in the industrial revolution, the industry has completed its transformation from 2.0 and 3.0 to 4.0 and as a result, modernization has been replaced by intellectualization, bringing about a substantial leap in industrial production. In this process, Fushun New Steel Company Ltd emerged as one of the best steel plants in Liaoning province.
The center is the soul and headquarters of new steel production. Inside the center, all kinds of production data are rolling on more than one hundred screens. The entire production process is merely handled by a few clicks on a keyboard. Based on instantaneous data analysis, engineers and administrators from different sections can supervise the production process, single out problems, make solutions, and provide centralized decisions and scientific empowerment.
The center has a daily increase of 0.85 billion new data and as a platform of highly efficient administration, its maximum advantage is to engage all employees in the crucial production process, including production, cost, and quality. It is only in this way that scientific precision can be achieved. Its AI gas burning control system is praised as one of the most advanced in the world.
The 5G+ Metallurgical Flow has changed the traditionally massive mechanized process into a micro- computerized super control system operated through digitalization. Now the center functions as the brain of the company. From the selection of the base stations to the servers' connections and the 5G network constructions, the company is the first in its industry to have embraced the 5G mode and the first steel plant to have entered the 5G era in Liaoning province.
In an era of big data, every worker has to be subject to encoding and order, as if they were screw spikes in a machine. No matter what happens in transformation, permutation and combination, inexhaustible energy will be generated from 0 to 9. This is a significant part in the smelting process.
What should be remembered is a fact that 5G has liberated people from high-risk posts.
In fact, 5G has brought a fundamental change to the New Steel Company, where both safety production and technological advance are being operated under a digitalized network designed for the production process.
We're no longer worried about the first-line workers' safety. That's why we say they're liberated.
A few years ago, the company's human resources department had difficulties in hiring new employees as operators. Even if they had come after painstaking and time-consuming training, they wouldn't stay long due to the undesirable and dangerous working conditions.
In the old days, overhead cranes in a smelting plant were operated by whistles. They slide back and forth along two tracks over the workers with a harsh ringing bell. Accidents often occurred.
Today the overhead cranes are operated by remote controls because a technology of 5G+HD videos are used to make unmanned operation possible and instantaneous images of super high-definition from multiple circuits and angles can be transmitted to terminals to generate super-low delayed feedbacks.
It is a revolution initiated by 5G in metallurgical production or it is the 5G that has brought about the changes in new steel production.
Under the auspices of both the municipal and district governments, the company makes full use of the unused workshop and the newly built plant. Since the year 2019, guided by custom-made products, the company has built a steel bar processing plant of 12,000 square meters by renovating its unused workshop and began to provide custom-made steel bars for housing developments in Shenyang and Fushun.For their targeted efforts, a new market has emerged on the horizon.
Not long ago, the company'ssteel bar processing center undertook the task to make steel bar cages andto process steel bars for the Shen-Bai High Speed Train Project. It aimed at the market with precision and shifted to comprehensive service for the construction industry. The company completed the task by establishing a service center for movable steel bar cages. The center worked in such a way that seamless contact was made between the service provider and the construction site. To cut the cost for its client, the center provided timely response to any demands from the construction site.In so doing, it helped the constructer transform to a mode of high efficiency, high intelligence, and high quality.
According to the calculations by the company's managers, the construction from Shenyangbei Station to Shenyangdong Station alone has cut the cost for the client by 10 million yuan in steel bars, thanks to their custom-made service, and the costs which would have occurred in workshop construction, supporting facilities, and raw materials have been saved.
The key competiveness comes from the products made by an enterprise and innovations lead to a big share in the market. Now twisted steel bars and high speed wire rod produced by FushunNew Steel Company are popular products in the national market. For this reason, the company was invited to make national standards for hot-rolled plain bars used as cement bars, hot rolled reinforced bars, and corrosion resistance steel bars. It is also one of the certified manufacturers of hot rolled steel bars, and its products have been verified as low carbon and green.
In May 2021,at the 9th China Shenyang Expo of International Modern Construction Industry, and Liaoning Provincial City Fair held in Shenyang, the company was the only enterprise recommended by Fushun Bureau of Housing and Urban-Rural Development. The recommendations read: “A model of combined development of enterprises and the city, a pioneer in smart manufacturing, a practitioner of green development, and a leading enterprise of comprehensive service platform in construction industry.” These eye-catching words at the fair can serve as the company's four strategies in supporting the overall revitalization of the old industrial province.
