Expansion of Smart Convenience Facilities
(integrated control)
Operate a system using IoT technology, intelligent CCTV, and data from related organizations to manage dangerous goods, environmental pollution, and traffic in the complex
*Install IoT environment sensor system (actual measurement information) + construction of intelligent CCTV (video information) + connection of public data (weather, environment, terrain information, etc.) → Real-time monitoring and increased risk prediction accuracy of the industrial complex
Expansion of Smart Convenience Facilities
(logistics platform)
Reduce logistics costs and utilization of idle warehouses in the industrial complex by applying ICT and AI technology to the obsolete joint logistics center
*Provide devices such as sensors for joint logistics companies and logistics providers (transport, storage, etc.), data collection, and intelligent control of supply and demand in logistics
Process Innovation Simulation Center Reinforce smart manufacturing innovation capabilities of SMEs through virtual design support for the entire process from product development to manufacturing to performance verification
*Companies do not have to purchase costly software or leave the work to another company. The simulation provided by the center allows companies to reduce costs and time spent on product development.
Standard Manufacturing Innovation Process Module Verify manufacturing technology and corporate support through the establishment of a modular production system for the application of smart manufacturing technologies such as digital twin
Professional Manpower Training in Smart Manufacturing Develop undergraduate and graduate programs (employees, etc.) in smart manufacturing, design curriculum focused on problem-solving in the industry, spur industry-academia cooperation to nurture talent, and technical support
Establishment of Energy Self-Sufficient Infrastructure Expand ESS and renewable energy power plants such as fuel cell plant and photovoltaic plant in the industrial complex, and demonstrate energy transaction networks based on electric vehicle power generation
