Schneider Electric will give full play to the advantages of digital technology and sustainable development experience, unite ecological forces, help the industry to improve quality and move towards "new", and jointly explore new opportunities in the digital wave."
Relying on continuous innovation and deep cultivation in the field of AI technology and industrial application, Schneider Electric has built an AI solution covering the computing power layer, model layer, and business layer, providing enterprises with full-chain empowerment from AI top-level planning to landing application, and promoting the deep integration of AI digital technology into the full scene and process of green energy management and intelligent manufacturing. In addition, relying on a global supply chain network, electrical automation products that meet international standards, digital integration solutions and a full life cycle service system, Schneider Electric is helping Chinese electronic companies to go overseas agilely and achieve global operations in all aspects.
Empowering the electronics industry and accelerating the process of digital transformation
As a core industry of new quality productivity, the electronics industry has an increasingly significant trend of high-end, intelligent, and green development. However, while production capacity is expanding rapidly, problems such as complex production management, difficult quality control, high equipment maintenance costs, and low data asset utilization have gradually emerged. Coupled with intensified market competition, enterprises are in urgent need of digital transformation.
At the electronics industry branch held at the same time, Schneider Electric focused on the core needs of the electronics industry, and fully empowered the digital transformation and upgrading of electronic manufacturing companies through seven steps, including building a transformation organization PMO, disassembling the performance indicator system, diagnosing performance improvement opportunities, sorting out management and digital improvement projects, formulating feasible implementation paths, promoting project implementation and following up on performance achievement, and conducting performance dialogues based on digital systems, helping companies build lean digital factories.
In the roundtable dialogue session of the electronics industry branch venue, Schneider Electric, together with industry experts, customers and partners, conducted in-depth discussions on "green and low-carbon development of electronic factory construction". Based on its rich experience in the electronics industry for a long time, Schneider Electric shared its cutting-edge insights into industry transformation, pointing out that current electronic factories are facing challenges such as complex power supply systems, energy efficiency improvement, and carbon emission control, and their power supply continuity and reliability are directly related to production and operation efficiency. In this regard, Schneider Electric will provide full life cycle services from consulting planning to implementation, focusing on the three dimensions of electronic plant equipment, systems, and operation sites, enabling the continuous optimization of electronic plant construction and operation, and through digital twins and AI technology, achieving real-time precision control and predictive maintenance of energy systems, achieving the dual value of efficient operation and energy saving and carbon reduction.
Assisting the life science industry and escorting high-quality and low-carbon operations
The update and iteration of AI technology is enabling new drug research and development to improve efficiency, shorten the R&D cycle and reduce costs at an unprecedented speed, and the market development prospects are broad. At the life science industry sub-venue, the guests analyzed the development status and trend insights of China's life science industry in depth, and pointed out that AI digital technology is accelerating its penetration into various application scenarios of life sciences, driving the digital transformation and upgrading of the industry, but the weak data foundation, difficult system integration, data security compliance, and electrical system reliability are urgently needed to be solved by the industry in a collaborative manner.
In order to help life science customers create safe, compliant, stable, reliable, efficient, flexible, green and low-carbon production processes and environments, Schneider Electric has taken multiple measures. In terms of safety and compliance, it uses digital technology to meet GXP compliance checks, reduce manual intervention deviations, improve verification efficiency and data management compliance, and achieve 100% paperless compliance; in terms of stability and reliability, it not only ensures the high availability of pharmaceutical plant utilities and production line facilities, but also reduces the risk of batch scrapping and drug recalls, reducing up to 49% of failures; in terms of efficiency and flexibility, Schneider Electric connects data islands between multiple systems, uses data value to provide active energy management, asset management and intelligent manufacturing, ensures rapid production and efficient operation of drugs, and saves up to 15% of engineering time and costs; in the field of green and low-carbon, AI technology is used to assist energy-saving optimization and predictive maintenance to help companies meet carbon reduction requirements, improve energy utilization and production and operation benefits, and reduce carbon emissions by up to 25%.
In addition, Schneider Electric has created a digital energy efficiency solution specifically for the life sciences industry. Based on the EcoStruxure architecture and platform, it integrates digital technologies such as medium and low voltage, strong and weak electricity, automation, and software and hardware, bringing digital innovation functions such as GMP verification, differentiated SOP, deviation management, operation and maintenance plans, CAPA measures, and simulation to protect the safe production and high-quality development of the life sciences industry.
In the new era, the digitalization and green development of the electronics and life sciences industries are taking advantage of the time and momentum. Schneider Electric will continue to focus on customer needs, relying on its own excellent and efficient products, software and solutions, as well as a service system covering the entire life cycle, to build a solid "digital foundation" and "service cornerstone" for corporate development, and actively join hands with ecological forces to promote the industry towards a high-end, intelligent, and sustainable future.
