Technical transformation projects in brewing and food production seize new opportunities and press the fast forward button for "smart" manufacturing

In order to solidly promote a new round of enterprise technological transformation and accelerate the transformation and upgrading of enterprise manufacturing methods, local governments are now actively encouraging and guiding enterprises to implement technological and skill transformation, and promote the transformation of manufacturing methods from traditional to digital and intelligent. Transformation, for example, using liquor brewing and food production as the entry points to promote the implementation of "technological transformation to improve energy and manufacturing renewal" transformation and upgrading projects.

Technical transformation usually refers to investment projects such as the purchase of new equipment, technological updates, and process transformation by enterprises. Skills transformation mostly refers to technical transformation projects with digital and intelligent standards. It usually refers to enterprise investment that is composed of automation technology, intelligent manufacturing technology, etc., featuring robots, industrial Internet, and artificial intelligence applications, in design, production, and processing. and other technical transformation projects implemented in one or more links. Take liquor brewing and food production companies as examples.

In order to cater to the development trend of digitalization and intelligent upgrading and help improve the production capacity and quality of base wine, a wine company has successively undertaken the construction of a 30,000-ton koji-making technical transformation project for the winery and a 30,000-ton high-quality Phoenix-shaped base wine expansion project. Quality improvement projects and intelligent wine delivery pipeline network projects include digital and intelligent industrial upgrading and transformation projects from making koji and wine to storage and blending. It is said that the two koji-making machine production lines in the koji-making workshop of the koji-making technological transformation EPC general contracting project have been officially put into operation recently.

Generally, winemaking requires multiple brewing processes to produce a bottle of fragrant, rich and high-quality wine. Qu is the soul of wine, and it determines the type of wine. As the first process of wine-making, koji-making is an important link related to the quality of wine. At the same time, wine-making has very high requirements on fermentation temperature, time, humidity and other factors. The upgraded brewing workshop is equipped with intelligent temperature and humidity detectors, which can accurately control the initial fermentation temperature of the koji and keep the temperature of the koji room at 25°C.

In addition, the workshop also introduced an intelligent remote control system to replace manual work in removing impurities from raw grains, moistening and crushing materials. After the machine forms the curved pieces, the intelligent turning robot will push, de-palletize, and turn the curved grains. And the qu operation is carried out, and the turning speed is comparable to that of manual work, which perfectly matches the production process requirements of liquor Daqu. In addition, the workshop has also installed an intelligent pulse dust collector, which uses pulse injection dust cleaning technology to effectively reduce dust density and avoid safety accidents.

If winemaking improves wine products through skill transformation, digitalization, and intelligent upgrading, then food processing uses "intelligentization + diversification" to start the "innovative" development of food production. The author learned that Lusu cold chain food production projects include rice processing, steamed bun processing, steamed bun processing, sauce brine processing, clean vegetable processing, etc. The workshop has introduced fully automatic intelligent production lines such as robot cooking machines and intelligent rice production lines, intelligent steamed bun production lines, and vegetable cleaning production lines. The food produced is of high quality and doubled in safety.

It is understood that the workshop has introduced fully automatic program-controlled rice production lines, imitation hand-made round steamed bun intelligent equipment production lines and other fully automatic intelligent production lines, which can accurately control the rice steaming time and temperature, and the intensity of steamed bun kneading. , time, the flavor, taste and texture of rice and steamed buns are comparable to hand-made. At the same time, in the cleaning process, the "water exposure" hypochlorous acid physical disinfection and sterilization process is used to remove pesticide residues from vegetables, thereby improving meal safety.

In recent years, the social phenomenon of "reverse tide of recruitment" has been repeatedly performed in many areas. Difficulty in recruiting workers and high labor costs have also restricted the development of labor-intensive industries. However, as enterprises accelerate skills transformation and press the fast-forward button for digital and intelligent transformation, they have also changed the traditional labor-intensive industries' high dependence on manpower. While reducing labor costs, information exchange costs and transaction costs, they have also It has greatly improved the efficiency, production capacity and product quality of brewing and food production.
