Under the spark, the impeller of the water pump is precisely cut on the CNC machine tool. In the cloud, tens of thousands of real-time data converge into a smart water network… As one of the earliest enterprises in China dedicated to the research and development and manufacturing of hydraulic transportation, Jiangsu Kaiquan Pump Industry Manufacturing Co., LTD. (referred to as “Jiangsu Kaiquan”), located in Nanjing National Agricultural High-tech Zone, has achieved a leapfrog development from precise production to cloud-based operation and maintenance through the dual drive of intelligent manufacturing and smart services, injecting new impetus into the urban water supply system.
Precision manufacturing, laying a solid foundation for smart water management
In the production workshop of Jiangsu Kaiquan, core components such as motors, coils and shafts are precisely processed with millimeter-level precision technology and finally assembled into various types of intelligent water pumps, which are sold to domestic and foreign markets.
Jiangsu Kaiquan’s products cover 14 major series including submersible sewage pumps, fire pumps, pipeline centrifugal pumps, vertical multistage pumps, axial flow pumps, mixed flow pumps, secondary water supply equipment, integrated pumping stations, integrated sewage treatment equipment, intelligent throttling Wells, etc., with over 6,000 models. By continuously promoting technological research and development and jointly building production and research platforms with multiple universities, the company’s products have been constantly upgraded. The “Four-All Design” has reshaped the standards for secondary water supply equipment. The fifth-generation digital integrated full frequency conversion water supply equipment features four major functions: full parameter detection, full digital control, full frequency conversion integration, and full intelligent control. The lifespan of its core components is three times that of conventional products. The energy-saving rate in the medium and small flow segments has increased by 3% to 5%.
Innovation is at the core of an enterprise’s development, and energy conservation is a key focus of research and development. The non-negative pressure water supply equipment adopts a first-class energy efficiency permanent magnet synchronous motor. The intelligent control system is highly integrated into the equipment body, eliminating the need for an external control cabinet and saving floor space. Yu Ming, the deputy general manager of the company, introduced that the equipment is equipped with a tablet computer, allowing users to remotely monitor the operating status and adjust parameters, achieving unmanned intelligent operation and maintenance. Actual measurements show that this series of equipment can save about 20% of electricity bills annually.
With its full industrial chain R&D capabilities ranging from components to complete machines, Jiangsu Kaiquan has become a benchmark enterprise for green transformation in the water supply field. Up to now, the enterprise has cumulatively obtained 43 patents and 11 software Copyrights, and technological innovation achievements continue to emerge.
Cloud empowerment builds a new ecosystem of smart water networks
Hardware is the foundation, while true “wisdom” lies in the cloud. In the remote control center of Jiangsu Kaiquan, the smart water production cloud platform is monitoring tens of thousands of sets of equipment spread all over the country in real time. The staff randomly clicked on the “Shijiu Lake Service Area Sewage Treatment Station”, and the operating status of the water pumps, fans, dosing systems and other equipment was clearly visible. Data shows that this 300-ton sewage treatment facility, which was put into operation last year, has treated a total of 7,700 tons of domestic sewage.
This platform not only realizes remote monitoring and intelligent early warning, but also builds a powerful after-sales service system. Each device is equipped with a high-precision positioning system, with an error controlled within two meters. Yu Ming introduced that the company has established a complete after-sales response network across the country and is equipped with a professional technical team. Once an abnormality occurs, the system will automatically push alarm information to the user’s administrator’s mobile phone, achieving “real-time reporting of faults and rapid personnel arrival”.
All-round intelligent services have won market recognition. At present, production orders have been scheduled until October this year, with a year-on-year growth of 5% to 10%. The order amount for September and October alone has exceeded 30 million yuan. Yu Ming stated that while deeply cultivating the domestic market, Jiangsu Kaiquan is accelerating its global strategic layout and has successively reached cooperation agreements with Southeast Asian countries and regions such as Malaysia and Bangladesh. The average annual turnover of its overseas business exceeds 50 million yuan.
From precision manufacturing to intelligent operation and maintenance, from energy conservation and consumption reduction to global layout, Jiangsu Kaiquan has achieved a full industrial chain closed loop in pump product manufacturing through continuous technological innovation and comprehensive full-cycle services, and has built an efficient, reliable and intelligent water resource management system.
In this industrial transformation driven by innovation and pursued by quality, Jiangsu Kaiquan, which is based in China and oriented towards the world, is continuously outlining a new future picture of smart water management with its solid technological strength and digital capabilities.
