Chinese construction equipment manufacturer Zoomlion has implemented its 3D digital twin platform at a concrete batching plant in Hubei province, China.

Developed by Zoomlion, the real-time 3D virtual model is designed for construction material manufacturing. The digital twin platform enables virtual inspections, equipment monitoring, and fault early detection with improved speed and accuracy.

The AI-powered platform, which now operates at Hubei Innovation Jiahua Concrete Plant, brings the real-time operational status of facilities online, allowing for simultaneous digital factory mapping and data integration, providing information that enables managers to have full coverage of each asset with more transparency and details.

With the platform, users can virtually manage and access the data of six segments of the factory: production and operations, equipment maintenance, on-site material inventory, raw material tracking, intelligent security, and logistics scheduling.

“Zoomlion’s digital twin is a game-changer for the entire industry. With this digital technology, we are integrating massive amounts of data into a single control room, allowing better decision-making to take our operational efficiency to the next level” said a representative of Hubei Innovation Jiahua Concrete Plant.
