Huawei's PanGu Big Model 5.0 Boosts Annual Revenue by 90 Million for Steel Mill Production Line
Jun 25, 2024
On June 24th, Zhang Ping'an, Executive Director of Huawei and CEO of Huawei Cloud, unveiled the PanGu Big Model 5.0 at the Huawei Developer Conference 2024 (HDC 2024). He shared specific practices of the model in the steel industry, tackling complex challenges and tasks.
At Baosteel Group's hot rolling production line, a steel slab 260mm thick must undergo 20 processes involving over 300 parameters before being rolled into a 1.2mm thick steel plate. Previously, whenever the type and size of the steel plate were adjusted, engineers had to reconfigure the settings, which took approximately five days.
The PanGu Big Model innovatively tokenizes time-series data, tabular data, process parameters, and industry mechanisms. Through the model's learning capabilities, it predicts optimal parameters, significantly reducing the time needed for adjusting the hot rolling production line and improving prediction accuracy and steel plate yield.
The PanGu Big Model has been deployed on Baosteel Group's 1880 hot rolling production line. It has increased prediction accuracy by over 5% and steel plate yield by 0.5%. This is expected to result in an annual production increase of more than 20,000 tons of steel plates, with an annual revenue of over 90 million yuan. Furthermore, Huawei Cloud is collaborating with Baosteel Group on the application of the PanGu Big Model in various fields, including steelmaking, surface inspection, new steel variety development, and scheduling optimization.
