[reprinted from industry and the Internet] the competition of modern enterprises is the competition of productivity. The root lies in the confrontation of technological soft power among enterprises. Both the Internet and the Internet of things are important components of modern information technology. How to apply them to the automatic production process and make them an important driving force of economic growth is what we need to face next One of the main topics of.

In the actual economic development process, the Internet of things can not only achieve the overall goal of energy conservation and emission reduction in China, but also change and improve the production management mode of enterprises, and integrate the production and operation process of products into the rapid development of the Internet, which is the inevitable choice to improve industrial automation.

In China, Internet of things technology, especially after the national development plan of "China made 2025" and "Internet +", has been developing rapidly. Now it has been widely applied to the production processes of all walks of life, and is playing an increasingly important role in energy saving, emission reduction, production efficiency, safety production and automatic production. The application prospect of the technology is very broad, and it has become a hot technology in the application field.

First of all, in terms of industrial application, the Internet of things technology is a kind of technology with strong systematization and wide coverage. Its industrial application is not only limited to solving industrial network problems, but also to providing comprehensive Internet operation system solutions for enterprise development. This is a communication integration based on a new dimension, which is conducive to further expanding the application channels of industrial practice.

Secondly, the Internet of things has been widely used in power, chemical industry and other high energy consumption industries, which plays an effective role in energy conservation and emission reduction. The Internet of things can monitor the energy consumption and environmental status in the production process through sensor devices, so as to provide important data support for energy conservation and emission reduction.

Finally, for the automated production of enterprises, the Internet of things can realize the information management of products, not only can improve the performance and function of products, but also can realize the remote monitoring of product production. Through the intelligent monitoring center, it can realize the real-time monitoring of production environment, and inject new vitality into the development of enterprises.
