Philips Innovation and Breakthrough Lead Automotive Lighting into Intelligent Control Era

Faced with the unclear trend of the auto market this year, it has become the choice of more and more automakers to reduce costs and increase efficiency by pursuing lean manufacturing processes through internal exploitation.

According to professionals from the Philips Lighting Marketing Department, domestic automakers have widely adopted a flexible production system, that is, products of different models, colors, and configurations are accurately and orderly entered the designated process under the “baton” of the control system on a single assembly line. . Philips can integrate flexible production systems from the unified port into the assembly line to achieve programmatic lighting control.

“Centralized intelligent control and energy-efficient energy-saving solutions can not only achieve lighting management that matches the production process, but also save operating costs.” Wei Qianzhe, Vice President of Lighting, Greater China, Philips Lighting, May 10th According to an interview with reporters, taking intelligentization as a precursor and satisfying the customization needs of different processes in the assembly line while achieving considerable comprehensive energy-saving effects has become the development trend of the automotive industry lighting in the next stage.

The reporter learned that in the BMW Brilliance II project completed in 2011, the Philips design team integrated the process environment of the assembly line, adopted DALI-controlled lighting solutions across the board, and programmed, monitored, and controlled tens of thousands of TTX188 and T5 product portfolios. To maximize the lighting requirements for flexible production lines while maximizing energy savings.

In order to further illustrate the intelligent control, Philips Lighting Marketing professionals to the reporter for example, in the assembly line, assuming that the previous period of time for the A model needs 600 lux illumination, and the next period of time for the B model requires only 300 Lux illumination You can. Then, under the control of the program, the actual lighting environment can be changed from time to time, monitor the lighting configuration of the entire production line through the network, and save energy with intelligent driving.

Philips believes that automakers should use high-efficiency, long-life, easy-to-maintain, high-protection lighting systems that will not only provide customers with stable and substantial energy-saving benefits, but also effectively reduce daily operations and replace products. The cost of use. In 2011, Philips provided Beiqi Saab with 6,000 high ceiling lighting systems equipped with a new generation of ceramic metal halide light sources.

Wei Qianzhe also told reporters that Philips has been constantly seeking innovation and breakthrough in lighting technology, providing automotive lighting solutions that match its quality. In the future, we will use dynamic intelligence as the direction and energy-saving as the pursuit, respond to changes in the industry through more innovative lighting solutions, and promote China's auto manufacturing industry to upgrade.
