China is making efforts in carrying out the strategic deployment of Made in China 2025.
The Ministry of Industry, the Standardization Administration of China jointly issued the Guidance for the Construction of National Smart Manufacturing Standardization Criteria (Version 2015), providing authorized regulation and guidance for the construction of smart factories in petroleum and chemical industries.
The Guidance focuses on trans-industrial trans-sector integrated innovation sectors of smart manufacturing and constitutes key technical criterion of five categories as well as standardized national smart manufacturing system covering 10 key sectors, including advanced materials, energy conservation and new energy vehicle, etc.
The Guidance will be revised every two to three years.
Reference models of the standardized smart manufacturing system have been established in three dimensions, namely the lifecycle, hierarchy and smart function, and thereby put forward a framework of standardized smart manufacturing system.
The framework consists of five basic common standards, namely foundation, security, management, testing and evaluation, and reliability, as well as five key technical criteria, namely smart equipment, smart factory, smart services, industrial software, and industrial Internet.
The Guidance has also selected application standards for 10 key industries, including advanced materials, new energy vehicle, advanced numerically controlled machine tool and robot, etc. Application standards for the industries will be issued or completed afterwards.
Hu Qianlin, vice secretary general of China Petroleum and Chemical Industrial Federation, said smart manufacturing has huge development potential in industries demanding processing technologies, such as oil refining and tire industries. The petroleum and chemical industry should follow the Guidance and urge key industries and enterprises to enhance the level of smart manufacturing and information-based management.
