China Coal Technology and Engineering Group's Intelligent Loading Technology Research Laboratory Inaugurated in Beijing

en.Wedoany.com Reported - The Intelligent Loading Technology Research Laboratory, under the National Key Laboratory for "Digital and Intelligent Technologies for Unmanned Coal Mining" of China Coal Technology and Engineering Group (CCTEG), was recently inaugurated in Beijing. Wang Guofa, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, director of the National Key Laboratory, and chief scientist of CCTEG, attended the ceremony and unveiled the laboratory plaque, with key research representatives from CCTEG Storage and Loading participating in the event.

This National Key Laboratory serves as a national-level platform for technological innovation, as well as a foundational facility for CCTEG to conduct basic research, achieve major original innovations, cultivate and attract innovative talents, and foster high-level collaborative innovation. The Intelligent Loading Technology Research Laboratory, with CCTEG Storage and Loading as the construction entity, focuses on the research direction of intelligent storage, loading, and transportation, providing support and services for the laboratory's establishment and daily operations.

Academician Wang Guofa highly commended the laboratory's development positioning, which precisely aligns with national strategies and meets industry demands. He noted that mine intelligence is a core track for the upgrading of the energy industry. The laboratory's construction should be based on the core needs of digital and intelligent technologies for unmanned coal mining, focusing on breakthroughs in key core technologies, development of original innovative equipment, and leading industrial transformation and upgrading.

CCTEG Storage and Loading has been deeply engaged in the field of intelligent coal storage and loading, actively implementing the Group's "1245" overall development strategy. It continuously tackles core technologies, ensuring national energy transportation security and empowering the intelligent transformation and upgrading of the coal storage and loading industry. The newly inaugurated laboratory closely follows CCTEG's strategic deployment and industry trends, focusing on core technology directions such as underground intelligent transfer, intelligent storage and loading, fully automated unmanned loading, multi-machine group adaptive collaborative operations, and precise control under complex working conditions. It aims to build a full-chain integrated innovation system covering "basic theoretical research—core technology breakthroughs—complete equipment development—on-site engineering demonstration."

Going forward, the Intelligent Loading Technology Research Laboratory will target industry technical pain points and cutting-edge research directions, deeply integrate into China's major strategic deployments in the energy sector, and continuously deepen cross-domain, industry-academia-research-application collaborative innovation. It will promote the deep integration of intelligent loading technology with frontier technologies such as mine perception, digital twins, and artificial intelligence, continuously strengthening its core independent innovation capabilities. At the same time, it will focus on producing original and leading scientific research results, systematically building a high-quality talent echelon for scientific and technological innovation, empowering enterprise professional development through platform construction, and promoting high-level laboratory development through technological innovation, achieving mutual empowerment and win-win outcomes between scientific innovation platform establishment and industrial capability enhancement.
