Industry news Absen’s giant control room display


Global LED display solutions manufac- turer, Absen, recently built an impres- sive LED display in the SANY Group H. Boasting Absen’s new indoor fixed install LED product for the APAC and LATM regions, the KL Series (note: EU and US version also available), the video wall was built as part of Chi- na’s national strategic ini- tiative to fur- ther develop the manufac- turing sector, called ‘Made in China 2025’.


The 5G dis- play terminal sits at SANY Group’s fac- tory No.18 - an intelligent manufactur- ing workshop in Changsha. In collaboration with partners ZTE and Huawei, SANY Group has jointly devel- oped 5G smart manufacturing appli- cations showing the revolutionary im- pacts of 5G in industrial production. SANY Group’s core company, SANY Heavy Industry was founded in 1994 and is China’s largest and the world’s fifth largest construction machinery manufacturer.


It is also the largest


concrete machinery manufacturer in the world.


As one of the world’s leading equip- ment manufacturers, SANY Heavy In- dustry deals with complex challenges in network security, service centralisa- tion as well as physical environment. Existing wired and wireless private networks are not able to meet such heavy communication requirements, creating an urgent need for high-band- width, low-latency, high-reliability, and easy-to-deploy networks to provide connected and smart operational sup- port for smart manufacturing. Capable of handling 5G, the newly installed screen displays two video

streams of HD surveillance data, which are then transmitted and distributed to a campus monitoring centre using Multi-access Edge Computing (MEC) through the 5G network. The 5G data creates high level requirements for the display terminal and the KL series is


sures high visual uniformity over time and maintains the product lifespan at component level. The KL panels are also made of fine die-casting alumini- um, which further ensures the flatness of the overall display for an excellent visual impact.”


Security and maintenance were also key factors since the LED video wall is installed on a steel structure 5 m above the ground. With a depth of only 70 mm, and weigh- ing only 7.8 kg per panel, the KL series was perfect- ly suited for this project. It also offers


able to meet all of them. The 2.5 mm pixel pitch LED screen is able to dis- play a number of real-time operation images in HD, helping operators to monitor critical activity in the facto- ry, including components transported through the hanging systems, and the robotic arms handling product mate- rials.


Boasting high brightness, greyscale, contrast ratio and refresh rate levels, Absen’s newly launched KL series is well suited for a wide array of commer- cial and domestic applications. Using turnkey LED displays instead of com- ponents that need to be assembled on site, the KL series not only helps save time and labour cost, but also improves the end quality of a project. Commenting on the installation, Ab- sen’s project manager Leon Liu said: “Very large display areas bring great challenges to the overall uniformity, flatness, stability and even life-span of the installation. Our products are calibrated after going through a series of critical product tests, which en-

front and rear installation and mainte- nance, and its design embeds the PSU (power supply units), cables, receiving cards as well as other key components. Absen had already worked with SANY Group in the past, when the compa- ny installed two 1.2 mm pixel pitch screens of respectively 30.12 sqm and 7.53 sqm in SANY Heavy Indus- try’s conference and reception rooms, featuring Absen’s A2712 and CR1.2 products. Terry Zhu, product manager at Absen, concluded: “Fine pixel pitch is a grow- ing trend for many new projects and as a leading company with a worldwide reputation, SANY embraces this trend. Their user experience is extremely pos- itive. We are proud to be part of this pioneering 5G deployment, with prod- ucts that perfectly answers the drastic requirements that 5G calls upon.”
