A total of 100 benchmarks for artificial intelligence applications have been selected and 100 outstanding intelligent products have been promoted… Over the past decade, from digital empowerment to model innovation, the World Conference on Intelligent Manufacturing has helped Jiangsu accelerate the realization of “Jiangsu Intelligent Manufacturing”. The 2025 World Conference on Intelligent Manufacturing will be held in Nanjing from November 27th to 29th. On November 6th, reporters visited enterprises such as Yijiahe Technology, Xiaoshi Technology and Nanjing Qiangsi Digital Technology, getting a close-up view of how Nanjing enterprises empower with technology and build a global “convergence field” for intelligent manufacturing.
The special robot with “three heads and six arms” has made the “Nanjing business card” well-known.
In intelligent manufacturing, robots are standard equipment. As the first “China Software City” in the country, Nanjing is home to a large number of industrial software enterprises and manufacturing single-champion enterprises, covering multiple fields such as smart grids and power systems, construction machinery, safety production management, and intelligent transportation. Yijiahe Technology Co., LTD. (hereinafter referred to as “Yijiahe”) is one of them.
In the Yijiahe exhibition hall located in the South Park of Software Valley, Yuhuatai District, a yellow robot with a “tiger head and tiger brain” has caught the attention of visitors. This special robot is called the M100 inspection robot and is applied in the maintenance of subway vehicles. Despite its small size, it plays a significant role in the daily maintenance of the subway. It can accurately take photos to identify loose screws and foreign object attachments, with an overall recognition rate exceeding 96%, significantly reducing the workload of staff. It can also perform graded processing.” Yijia and its secretary of the board, Zhang Jinbo, introduced.
With the upgrading and iteration of technology, the new TR100 vehicle inspection robot from Yijiahe has enhanced its obstagle-crossing, recognition and positioning performance. Tunnel inspection robots, indoor inspection robots, etc. will also be gradually introduced into the subway scene.
In addition to the research and development of robots in the rail transit field, Yijiahe has also launched commercial cleaning robots, shared charging robots, high-voltage live-line operation robots, unmanned assistants for substations, etc. These diverse intelligent robot products and equipment are being widely applied in energy, transportation, medical care and cleaning fields.
As an old friend of the World Intelligent Manufacturing Conference, Zhang Jinbo said that the development of Yijiahe could not have been possible without the strong support of the provincial and municipal governments as well as its customers. Next, embodied intelligent robot products will be launched in the field of health and wellness to assist the elderly in managing chronic diseases. At the same time, we will join hands with partners to expand overseas, such as the export of commercial cleaning and energy products. How can AI empower vision to become “eagle eyes” to safeguard safety? How can AI empower cameras to become “thousand-mile eyes” with “penetrating power”?
In a certain mining park in Shanxi Province, Xiaoshi Technology (Jiangsu) Co., LTD. (hereinafter referred to as “Xiaoshi Technology”) has successfully solved the problem of “coal theft” by using a variety of customized algorithm-based camera products.
Some drivers deliberately put a lot of water in their cars. When they go out for duty, they replace the water with coal piles so that no problems can be detected when weighing. We installed cameras at the gate post. Through the volume algorithm of AI vision, we calculate the amount of weight left by the mine car. Once the threshold is reached, it will trigger the alarm of the car gate. Therefore, the coal pile must be unloaded completely before leaving the gate, reducing the occurrence of leakage and saving a lot of losses.” Zhou Jixiang, deputy general manager of the Project Management Center of Xiaoshi Technology, said.
As a pioneer in the domestic artificial intelligence vision field, Xiaoshi Technology has successively broken through multiple technological breakthroughs and is capable of effectively addressing industry-recognized technical challenges such as complex lighting conditions, severe occlusion scenarios, high-speed motion blur, and micro-target recognition. Many of its core indicators have reached the international leading level.
Thanks to the advanced AI technology, the relevant cases of Xiaoshi Technology have been selected for national-level typical case honors by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the Work Safety Supervision Bureau, etc. In the field of industrial manufacturing, Xiaoshi Technology is also committed to “understanding and judging accurately”. Up to now, the company’s industrialization output value of intelligent manufacturing has accumulated to hundreds of millions of yuan, providing a practical and feasible technical path for the intelligent upgrade of the manufacturing industry.
In the future, we will continue to delve into the scene adaptability of industrial vision large models, enabling AI to better understand the subtle demands of manufacturing. Secondly, by building multi-modal large models enhanced with industry knowledge, we will allow AI not only to recognize images but also to understand processes and assist in decision-making. Ultimately, we aim to construct an intelligent manufacturing system capable of autonomous evolution. In addition, we will also actively participate in standard construction to promote the deep integration of artificial intelligence and manufacturing. Zhou Jixiang said.
AI reconstruction technology expands the application boundaries of “digital twins”
In the field of process industries, the in-depth application of digital twin factories has always been constrained by two major challenges: how to balance modeling accuracy and cost, and the disconnection between modeling technology and practical application. Many models only remain at the surface display level and are difficult to meet the in-depth operation and maintenance management and expansion and renovation needs of factories. This seriously restricts the in-depth release of digital technology in the application of process industries.
Now, there is a new solution to this problem. This year, Nanjing Qiangsi Digital Technology Co., LTD. (hereinafter referred to as “Qiangsi Digital Technology”) released the “High-Precision 3D Intelligent Modeling for Process Industry” with great fancies, injecting new impetus into the digital transformation of the process industry.
What positive impacts will this new achievement bring in practical applications? Yang Yixi, the CFO of Qiangsi Digital Technology, introduced, “For instance, currently, customers need to digitize their existing factory facilities and build 3D models. However, the modeling process itself has problems such as high costs, long cycles, and low modeling efficiency.” Our AI intelligent reconstruction technology employs laser scanning and artificial intelligence to generate 3D models, gradually replacing the manual input of traditional engineers for operations. The current technological level can already help enterprises reduce costs by 50%, significantly shorten delivery times and lower error rates.
Journalists have learned that the application of this technology strictly controls the modeling accuracy error within 2 millimeters, meeting the strict industrial-grade standards. And the delivery quality has achieved a qualitative leap in the three core indicators of efficiency, accuracy and cost.
As a specialized, refined, distinctive and innovative enterprise in Jiangsu Province and a national high-tech enterprise, Qiangsi Digital Technology has established the Nanjing Industrial Digital Twin Engineering Technology Research Center and serves as the chairing unit of the Jiangsu Industrial Metaverse Industry Alliance.
The best time to plant a tree is now. Not only Qiangsi Digital, but currently, Nanjing’s artificial intelligence products and services have covered all fields of the industrial chain, including the basic layer, technology layer and application layer. It has gathered artificial intelligence enterprises such as MobI and Silicon Intelligence, as well as artificial intelligence application enterprises like Nanjing Iron and Steel, NARI and Estun. It has released over 90 large models applied in fields such as consumption, healthcare, transportation, power and energy, and industrial manufacturing.
The 2025 World Conference on Intelligent Manufacturing is a landmark event. Relying on this important window, Nanjing’s artificial intelligence enterprises are bound to ride the wind and make new contributions to promoting the construction of a strong industrial city and high-quality development.
