Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of foundry sand production technology, specifically to an intelligent manufacturing management system for the recycling of foundry waste sand based on artificial intelligence. Background Technology

[0002] In the foundry industry, foundry sand is one of the key raw materials, and its consumption is extremely large. my country's annual discharge of foundry waste sand exceeds ten million tons; however, the recycling rate of waste sand is less than 10%. Most waste sand is still disposed of by discarding or landfilling. If calculated based on a 3-meter-deep accumulation layer, approximately 25,000 mu (about 1,667 hectares) of land is needed annually for waste sand storage. Furthermore, to meet foundry demands, more than 35 million cubic meters of quartz ore resources need to be mined annually to produce new sand, resulting in a significant waste of natural resources.

[0003] Foundry waste sand contains a certain amount of toxic and harmful substances. Improper handling can cause serious pollution to soil, water, and air, thereby endangering human health. Currently, most enterprises still treat waste sand as solid waste and lack effective recycling methods. This not only exacerbates environmental problems but also results in a significant waste of resources. However, foundry waste sand inherently has high reuse value. With increasingly stringent environmental policies and growing awareness of resource recycling, developing efficient, economical, and environmentally friendly waste sand recycling technologies and management systems is urgently needed.

[0004] Existing waste sand treatment methods have several limitations. First, in terms of data monitoring, the industry generally lacks IoT-based online monitoring systems, making it difficult to promptly grasp changes in waste sand composition and leading to unbalanced facility utilization. Second, the level of equipment intelligence is low; over 80% of treatment equipment lacks intelligent sensing capabilities, making its operating status invisible and uncontrollable, resulting in delayed fault response and impacting production continuity. Third, the resource conversion efficiency of waste sand is low; traditional treatment processes achieve a recovery efficiency of less than 35%, significantly lagging behind advanced countries. Finally, the energy structure is unbalanced; energy consumption distribution during treatment is unreasonable, and the lack of energy flow monitoring means makes energy scheduling and optimization difficult.

[0005] Currently, the recycling of foundry waste sand generally lacks an integrated and intelligent management system. Existing management models rely on manual experience, and the control methods are outdated, making it difficult to achieve real-time monitoring, scientific analysis, and dynamic optimization of the waste sand treatment process. This results in low production efficiency, serious resource waste, and inconsistent product quality. Summary of the Invention

[0006] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides an intelligent manufacturing management system for the recycling of foundry waste sand based on artificial intelligence. This system solves the problem that the management system cannot monitor the status of each stage of waste sand treatment in real time, which leads to low production efficiency, low resource utilization, and unstable product quality.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: an intelligent manufacturing management system for the recycling of foundry waste sand based on artificial intelligence, comprising:

[0019] The analysis and modeling employed decision trees, support vector machines, and neural networks to build predictive models.

[0020] Furthermore, by configuring a multi-source sensor array, the key dimensions of the physical state changes of waste sand are fully covered, providing a high-resolution, high-frequency dynamic data foundation for subsequent data modeling and control strategies, ensuring that every step of the processing is supported by data.

[0021] Preferably, the intelligent control module can adjust the operating parameters of the crushing and grinding equipment, the vibration frequency of the sorting equipment, the roasting temperature, the fuel consumption, the induced draft volume, and the delivered air volume according to data changes during the production process.

[0022] Furthermore, by constructing a complete data analysis chain from raw data processing to intelligent modeling, this module enables the extraction of high-value information with discriminative power from massive amounts of sensory data, providing a scientific basis and modeling support for intelligent control, and serving as the core foundation for achieving precision manufacturing management.

[0023] Preferably, the production scheduling and management module analyzes historical production data and market demand data through artificial intelligence algorithms. When formulating production plans, it considers the type, quantity, and timing of market demand, the amount and quality of recycled waste sand, the processable proportion of waste sand of different qualities, and also considers equipment capacity, maintenance cycle, repair history, equipment compatibility, equipment maintenance plan, and personnel configuration. It determines the production quantity, production sequence, and amount of waste sand input for various types of reused products, and manages the inventory of foundry waste sand and reused products in real time. It controls the inventory level through inventory data analysis and prediction.

[0024] Furthermore, by deeply integrating the output of the predictive model with the equipment control commands, the system is made adaptive, enabling it to respond and adjust the operating status of each piece of equipment in a timely manner when production conditions fluctuate or waste sand composition changes, thereby ensuring the stability and consistency of the waste sand treatment process.

[0025] Preferably, the quality inspection and traceability module uses blockchain technology to record and save the quality data, processing data and corresponding raw material information of each batch of recycled products. It associates various types of data through unique identifiers, automatically constructs and retrieves traceability paths, and uses blockchain technology to ensure the immutability and traceability of quality traceability files when establishing a quality traceability system.

[0026] Furthermore, the design of this module breaks through the limitations of traditional databases in terms of controllability and security. By using a chain structure to ensure the originality and continuity of data records, it constructs a decentralized and trustworthy quality supervision system, providing technical support for subsequent responsibility definition, quality traceability and regulatory compliance.

[0027] Preferably, the data acquisition module transmits the acquired data to the data processing and analysis module in real time, and records the data source and timestamp according to the installation location of each sensor to support subsequent data tracing and analysis.

[0028] Furthermore, by enhancing the structuring capabilities of sensor data, the system's comprehensive analytical capabilities for multi-dimensional data attributes in terms of time, space, and source have been improved, thus constructing a context-aware data integrity and consistency assurance mechanism for the data management system.

[0029] Preferably, the data processing and analysis module visualizes the analysis and modeling results and generates a model evaluation report to provide a reference for the control and scheduling module.

[0030] Furthermore, this mechanism not only enhances the transparency of algorithm results but also supports human-machine collaborative decision-making, ensuring that the system is interpretable and auditable, and possesses stronger adaptability and technical credibility in industrial settings.

[0031] Preferably, the intelligent control module achieves local decision-making for adjusting some parameters through edge computing, wherein the local decision-making calculation model of the edge node satisfies the following formula:

[0032] U i (t)=α·S i (t)+β·ΔP i (t)+γ·L i (t);

[0033] Among them, U i (t) represents the comprehensive adjustment decision value of edge node i at time t, S i (t) represents the weighted state index of the sensor-collected data, ΔP i (t) represents the deviation between the current device parameters and the optimal historical parameters, L i (t) represents the local load of the node, and α, β, γ are adjustment coefficients that are dynamically adjusted according to actual control requirements.

[0034] Furthermore, the localized control scheme leverages the near-source computing advantages of edge nodes to reduce the computing load on the central system, improve decision response speed, and lay the foundation for a distributed architecture for multi-node collaborative control. It is one of the key technologies to ensure the continuous operation of the system in complex environments.

[0035] Preferably, the production scheduling and management module supports the classification and management of waste sand of different grades, and allocates it to different recycling product production lines according to the classification results. At the same time, it sets a minimum safety stock line for different types of waste sand in the inventory and generates replenishment or scheduling prompts.

[0036] Furthermore, by constructing a multi-level inventory control model and combining the differences in waste sand properties with the adaptability of production lines, the system can realize the resource allocation logic of warehousing according to quality, classified production, and precise material input, effectively improving the efficiency of raw material utilization and the matching rate of production lines, and realizing the true graded utilization and value maximization of waste sand resources.

[0050] Example 1: System Composition

[0051] Data Acquisition Module — Data Acquisition Types

[0052] Waste sand source information: Recording the name and specific address of the foundry that generates waste sand helps trace its origin and understand the characteristics of waste sand generated by foundries of different regions and sizes. For example, large foundries may have higher waste sand production due to their larger production scale and more complex production processes, resulting in waste sand composition and characteristics that may differ from those of smaller foundries. By analyzing the source information of waste sand from different foundries, targeted waste sand treatment plans can be developed to improve treatment efficiency and quality.

[0053] Physical property data of waste sand include particle size distribution, moisture content, and density. Particle size distribution affects the grinding and sorting effect of waste sand in subsequent processing; moisture content affects the flowability and cohesiveness of waste sand, which has an important impact on crushing and molding processes; density reflects the composition and quality of waste sand.

[0054] Production equipment operating data includes motor speed, temperature, and pressure. Motor speed affects the equipment's processing capacity and efficiency; excessively high temperature may indicate equipment malfunction or overload; pressure data reflects the internal working status of the equipment and is crucial for ensuring its safe and stable operation.

[0055] Data acquisition methods: Data is acquired through various sensors and monitoring devices, such as particle size analyzers, humidity sensors, temperature sensors, pressure sensors, and weighing sensors. These sensors are installed in key parts of the waste sand treatment equipment to collect data in real time and transmit it to the data processing center.

[0056] Data Processing and Analysis Module

[0057] Data cleaning: The collected data is cleaned to remove invalid or redundant information, and denoising, standardization, and normalization are performed. For example, noisy data collected by sensors is denoised using filtering algorithms; data from different units and ranges are standardized and normalized to improve data consistency and comparability, providing a high-quality data foundation for subsequent analysis and modeling.

[0058] Feature Extraction: Combining the characteristics of foundry waste sand recycling with professional knowledge, key features are extracted. For example, features such as average particle size and particle size standard deviation are extracted from the particle size distribution data of waste sand; features such as equipment operating efficiency and energy consumption are extracted from equipment operation data. Methods such as orthogonal transformations are used to reduce data dimensionality, decrease computational load, and improve the effectiveness of features and the generalization ability of the model.

[0059] Data Analysis and Modeling: Artificial intelligence algorithms are used to analyze and model the processed data. For example, machine learning algorithms such as decision trees, support vector machines, and neural networks are employed to establish waste sand quality prediction models, equipment fault diagnosis models, and production process optimization models. By learning from and analyzing historical data, the quality and availability of waste sand are predicted, potential equipment failures are diagnosed, and production process parameter settings, such as grinding time and sorting parameters, are optimized.

[0060] Intelligent control module

[0061] Based on the results of the data processing and analysis module, intelligent control is implemented for the foundry waste sand recycling production process. This module can automatically adjust equipment operating parameters, such as the rotation speed of crushing and grinding equipment, the vibration frequency of sorting equipment, the roasting temperature, fuel consumption, and the induced draft and exhaust air volumes, to achieve precise control of the waste sand treatment process. For example, when the predicted particle size of the waste sand does not meet the requirements, the intelligent control module can automatically adjust the rotation speed and grinding time of the crushing and grinding equipment to ensure that the particle size of the waste sand reaches the expected target. Simultaneously, the module can also issue alarm signals in a timely manner based on the equipment fault diagnosis results and take corresponding measures, such as automatic shutdown, to ensure the safety and stability of production. The intelligent control module achieves local decision-making for some parameter adjustments through edge computing, where the local decision-making calculation model of the edge nodes satisfies the following formula:

[0062] U i (t)=α·S i (t)+β·ΔP i (t)+γ·L i (t);

[0063] Among them, U i (t) represents the comprehensive adjustment decision value of edge node i at time t, S i (t) represents the weighted state index of the sensor-collected data, ΔP i (t) represents the deviation between the current device parameters and the optimal historical parameters, L i (t) represents the local load of the node, and α, β, γ are adjustment coefficients that are dynamically adjusted according to actual control requirements.

[0064] Production scheduling and management module

[0065] Production Planning: A reasonable production plan is formulated based on factors such as market demand, waste sand supply, and equipment capacity. Artificial intelligence algorithms are used to analyze and predict historical production and market demand data to optimize production planning and improve production efficiency and resource utilization. For example, production resources are rationally allocated based on the processing difficulty and market demand for different types of waste sand, prioritizing the processing of waste sand with high demand and low processing difficulty.

[0066] Equipment scheduling: Rationally schedule production equipment to ensure efficient operation and maintain production continuity.

[0067] Inventory Management: Real-time management of foundry waste sand and recycled product inventory. Through analysis and forecasting of inventory data, inventory levels are rationally controlled to avoid overstocking or stockouts. For example, when the quantity of recycled products in inventory reaches a certain threshold, production plans are adjusted promptly to reduce production; when waste sand inventory is insufficient, timely procurement or recycling is arranged to ensure normal production operations.

[0068] Quality Inspection and Traceability Module

[0069] Quality Inspection: Quality inspection points are set up at each stage of the foundry waste sand recycling process to conduct real-time monitoring of the quality of waste sand and recycled products. Advanced testing technologies and equipment are employed, such as SEM (Scanning Electron Microscopy), TGA (Thermal General Analysis), XRD (X-ray Diffraction), hardness testers, and particle size analyzers, as key analytical tools to test the chemical composition and physical properties of waste sand and recycled products. The test results are compared with quality standards to determine product compliance. If non-compliant products are found, they are promptly processed, such as rework or scrapping.

[0070] Quality Traceability: Establish a comprehensive quality traceability system to ensure full traceability of each batch of waste sand and recycled products. Record information such as the source of waste sand, processing procedures, and test results to create detailed quality traceability files. When quality issues arise, the quality traceability files can be consulted to quickly pinpoint the source and cause of the problem, allowing for appropriate improvements and enhancing product quality and reliability.
