Bar code binding for assembly process solutions of SmartGen:

Question

The bar code of the PCB and the shell are generated in MES and ERP respectively during controllers production process. The naming rules and contents of the two bar codes are different. Binding and connecting two bar codes before products assembly can achieve overall process tracing of controllers. And this manual binding will reduce the efficiency of the current process.

Solution

Changing manual binding to automatic binding.

                                                                                                   ——Eight Gensets were remodeled to realize parallel connection of different powers by HGM9510

There are four 500kW Cummins gensets and four 800kW Cummins units, as well as two generator rooms. One room is for the four 500kW gensets and the other one is for the four 800kW genesets. The original two gensets were connected in parallel respectively, the previous system had poor parallel effect while the parallel failure and uneven load distribution often occurred.

The two are integrated into one by parallel remodeling of HGM9510. The MSC communication distance between the 8 units is 50 meters, the MSC communications of the first unit and the final unit need a 120 Ω matching resistor in parallel respectively, which make users realize 8 units connect in parallel easily through "3 keys" (manual key, starting key, closing key). The simple operation and reliable performance receive consistent affirmation by users. They will no longer have to worry about parallel failures and uneven load distribution.

The sky in August is bright and clear;

The mood in August is enthusiastic and expected;

The arrival of Chinese Valentine’s Day adds romance to August.

In this sweet day, love is not a sense of ritual, but it needs a sense of ritual!

Romantic Chinese Valentine’s Day with gifts~

She walks towards employees with rose tea.

《The Little Prince》says: It's the existence of the sense of ritual that make one day different from other days, one hour from other hours.

Adding some sense of ritual in your life will make people look less "casual".

It may be:

Cooking for your mate on the anniversary;

Watching a movie on the Valentine's Day;

Sending a bunch of flowers at the festival.

Where are the good memories of absent-minded life?

If you have love, please have a good day;

If you have no love, please love yourself careful.

Happy Chinese Valentine's Day!

Meeting the right person, everyday is the Chinese Valentine's Day!

"Yueshanchengyu 16118"

"Yueshanchengyu 16118" is the first newly built ocean fishing ship powered by LNG fuel designed by CSS605, a subsidiary of China State Shipbuilding Corporation Limited. This ship is mainly used for trawling in the South China Sea. It is 53.5m long, 8.5m wide and a single trawler with twin propeller slipway. The ship is specially equipped with a set of LNG cold energy utilization system, which can meet the cooling capacity requirement of the fish tank at -18℃, realizing the purpose of green energy saving.

In order to improve the automation of the power station management system, a tailor-made main switchboard for the ship is equipped with the power management system of SmartGen. Without the intervention of external programmable devices, the designer uses 3 HMC6 power management controllers to set up a multi master station power management system, which realizes the on-demand scheduling and real-time automatic protection of different types of gensets and greatly improve the crew's working environment and work efficiency.

Manual, semi-automatic and automatic modes are set for each genset, allowing different units to work in different modes, and the starting sequence can be adjusted at will. The semi-automatic mode can realize remote manual starting and stopping, one-key synchronous closing and automatic load distribution, one-key unlocking and opening. The mode can coexist with the automatic mode of other units. In the automatic mode, three main gensets can be synchronized automatically according to their priority. In parallel running, they can be automatically modulated and loaded to achieve balanced distribution of active power. The online genset is increased in heavy load while reduced in light load. In case of on-line genset failure, the standby genset will start and take part in automatically, and the failed genset will quit automatically. The system also has the function of heavy load inquiry. When the main genset running in parallel is overloaded, the system can automatically unload the non-important load.

HEP300 Electronic Potentiometer for Frequency Modulation of LNG Fuel Power Units

It is emphasized that the LNG fuel power unit is equipped with HEP300 electronic potentiometer of SmartGen, making switch quantity control signal issued by the power management system transfer to the voltage signal of settable center point voltage and adjustable change range, creating favorable conditions for the realization of the diesel gensets and LNG fuel power unit automatic parallel, modulation of frequency and load.

Introduction of the Core Functions of Multi Master Power Management Controller HMC6

Power Management Solution of HMC6 with HMC9000 Diesel Engine Control Box

The system builds a real multi master station system through MSC communication network (CAN bus), and its power management function is realized by the calculation of all generator control units. In the system, a control unit is selected as the "instruction unit", which is responsible for the calculation of the starting priority and other related power management functions of the genset. It can realize automatic synchronization and load distribution of up to 16 gensets. If one control unit fails, the power management calculation will be automatically transferred to the next available control unit.

The year 2020 is destined to be extraordinary. Despite the tense and turbulent situation, the annual conference of General Low-voltage Electrical Appliance Branch of CEEIA (China Electrical Equipment Industry Association) was held as scheduled in Changzhou, Jiangsu on July 22. More than 400. representatives from nearly 300 manufacturers of low-voltage electrical appliances all over the country attended the conference. SmartGen was one of the 16 companies to take the products on display.

The products of SmartGen on display were intelligent switching control modules, such as HAT821 -- Dual Power Bus Tie Control Module, HAT880 -- Dual Power Bypass ATS Control Module and etc, which are all intelligent ATS control modules with programmable function, automatic measurement, LCD display and digital communication. With compact structure, advanced circuit, simple connection and high reliability, our products can be widely used in electric installation and automatic control system of electric power, post and telecommunications, petroleum, coal, metallurgy, railway, municipal administration, intelligent building and other industrial sectors.

Our products were highly welcomed and recognized by many delegates, and we also met many former customers. Many representatives took the initiative to ask for more detailed product information and our contact information, hoping to have further cooperation with SmartGen in the future.

This conference is not only the general assembly in 2020, but also the session for the future development of the industry. This conference planned and summarized the priority work in 2020, such as the development and application of new 5G technologies, research and exploration of various new intelligent manufacturing solutions, and so on. At same time, the intelligence and innovation of the company's products, as well as the future development direction of SmartGen are also happened to coincide with the association's requirements for the future technology and development of low-voltage electrical appliance industry.

SmartGen not only makes friends with many good merchants who have never met before, but also has more new markets and opportunities from this conference. In the future, SmartGen will write a new chapter and create more according to the development plan of the General Low-voltage Electrical Appliance Branch and ourselves. Please wait expectantly!
