Internet By introducing Ruijie Network's all-optical wireless starry sky solution, Jinya Electronics has successfully opened a new era of intelligent manufacturing in the era of Industry 4.0. With the advent of the fourth wave of industrial revolution, smart manufacturing is becoming the new normal in the manufacturing industry. Factories in the era of Industry 4.0 are no longer closed manufacturing silos, but through a high degree of digitalization and networking, the production process is intelligent, automated and flexible. Under such a general trend, the manufacturing industry is undergoing a profound transformation from traditional manufacturing to intelligent manufacturing, and digital workshops and intelligent production lines have become the key forces to promote this transformation. In order to promote this key force, Tianjin Jinya Electronics Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Jinya Electronics") has built a wireless network to ensure efficient production, easy operation and maintenance, and worry-free future upgrades by adopting the all-optical wireless starry sky solution, opening a new chapter in intelligent manufacturing. Jinya Electronics, established in 1996, is a company specializing in the R&D, sales and manufacturing of automation solutions and tooling fixtures. At the same time, it provides customers with electronic product manufacturing, precision molds and injection molding, from product design to finished product delivery one-stop service (vertical integration) of the enterprise, with advanced manufacturing equipment and laboratories. Jinya Electronics continues to improve its innovation capabilities, and at the same time pays attention to resource investment in electronics, information, intelligent manufacturing, etc., and continuously improves its competitiveness in terms of cost advantages, technical capabilities and customer services. With solid strength and innovation ability, Jinya Electronics has won a number of government awards and certifications, including a number of scientific and technological innovation achievements, such as the National Specialized and New Little Giant, Tianjin Science and Technology Leading Cultivation Enterprise, National High-tech Enterprise, Tianjin Technology Center, etc. As a pioneer in the intelligent manufacturing industry, Jinya Electronics accurately controls the market development trend,and actively lays out digital workshops and intelligent production lines from 2003 to improve production efficiency and product quality, and provide customers at home and abroad with more intelligent, efficient and reliable products and services. At the same time, there were some challenges in terms of networking. The digital workshop has high requirements for the network, and the pressure on the wired network to support it is high With the in-depth development of the digital workshop, the demand for Jinya Electronics' network in the workshop is growing. In addition to daily office, real-time data collection and monitoring, equipment interconnection, intelligent manufacturing system integration, remote operation and control and other services have put forward new requirements for the workshop network, and the demand for wireless networks has become more and more prominent. Network deployment flexibility is insufficient and deployment costs are high Due to the many flexible production scenarios, it is often necessary to flexibly adjust the layout of the workshop according to different business needs, and because the traditional wired network is deployed, each time the production line is adjusted, the production line computers and equipment are availableThe network needs to be re-cabled, and the limit of 100-meter deployment of traditional network cables will lead to repeated cost inputs such as time and manpower, and the deployment cost is high. The original network is difficult to troubleshoot, and O&M is under great pressure Due to the 100-meter transmission distance limit of copper network cable cabling, some switches need to be added to implement network deployment, resulting in an increasing number of O&M nodes. Every time a network fault occurs, multiple people need to locate and solve the fault, which is time-consuming, laborious, and in serious cases, it will affect production efficiency, directly affect the production of enterprises, and put great pressure on the operation and maintenance of the IT department. Based on this, Jinya Electronics urgently needs to build a flexible and efficient, stable and secure network, and can be quickly redeployed when the workshop production line is adjusted, so as to support the rapid development of digital workshops and intelligent production lines. Through comparing and testing the network solutions of multiple vendors, Ruijie Network all-optical wireless starry sky solution was finally selected. Ruijie all-optical wireless starry sky solution adopts all-optical architecture to provide point-to-point power supply and data transmission to APs through photoelectric hybrid cables, breaking the traditional network cable deployment limit of 100 meters, reducing the number of terminal cabinets, and achieving comprehensive cost reduction. Its maximum transmission rate can reach more than 400Gbps, building a wireless network for customers to ensure efficient production, easy operation and maintenance, and worry-free future upgrades. At the same time, mobile terminals such as AGV robots and PDA barcode scanners that can also support workshop scenarios can have a stable and continuous wireless network experience during mobile operations, ensuring real-time business online, helping customers improve the production efficiency of core businesses, and enabling digital and intelligent transformation. All-optical, wired, and wireless integration supports the needs of digital workshop networks Jinya Electronics deployed an all-optical wireless starry sky solution in the workshop scenario, and successfully realized the network transformation and upgrade of the workshop with an area of about 6,600 square meters. During the whole transformation process, the hybrid cable is used to connect the star host and the wireless AP to achieve efficient AP management and full wired and wireless coverage in the workshop. At present, the access of 2.5G wireless APs on the whole network has been realized, and 5G and 10G bandwidth access will be upgraded in the future, without the need to redeploy network cables and supporting facilities with strong and weak currents. Easily cope with the network needs of the next 10 years. Long-distance power supply supports flexible network deployment, effectively reducing deployment costs and O&M pressure The deployment mode of photoelectric hybrid cable is used to achieve the effect of long-distance power supply and data transmission at a maximum distance of 1100 meters indoors, and it is originally necessary to deploy a PoE switch and a weak current box every 60 meters, and pull copper cables and cables to thread and guarantee pipes respectively; Now, as long as one star host is deployed, there is no need to deploy PoE switches, weak current boxes, copper cables, and no longer need to thread and guarantee, which not only saves deployment costs, but also shortens the construction period from the original 1 month to 2 weeks. In addition, taking advantage of the point-to-point power supply solution, you can power on and off APs with one-click operation, effectively reducing the O&M pressure on the IT department. By introducing Ruijie Network's all-optical wireless starry sky solution, Jinya Electronics has successfully opened a new era of intelligent manufacturing in the era of Industry 4.0. It not only improves production efficiency and product quality, but also lays a solid network foundation for the company's long-term development. Looking forward to the future, Jinya Electronics will continue to join hands with Ruijie Network to continuously explore and innovate, drive the continuous progress of intelligent manufacturing with the innovation of network technology, and lead the industry to a smarter and more efficient future.
