I treat cleaning and maintenance procedures between ladle lining cycles as a controlled release process, not a simple cleanup task. The sequence should isolate and cool the ladle, remove slag and metal buildup, inspect refractory and shell components, complete approved repairs, verify drying and preheating, document findings, and authorize the ladle before its next heat.

When I design an inspection system, I treat camera resolution, lens selection, and field of view as one connected decision. Choosing Camera Resolution, Lens, and Field of View for Inspection determines whether a defect is visible, measurable, and detected consistently at production speed. A high-pixel camera cannot compensate for an unsuitable lens, excessive field of view, poor lighting, or

In 2025, Yinglai Technology and RHI Magnesita, a global leader in the refractory materials industry, officially signed a strategic cooperation agreement in Tangshan, Hebei Province. The two companies will conduct in-depth joint development and global market expansion centered on Yinglai's independently developed "Automated Ladle Lining Robot," jointly accelerating the intelligent transformation of construction equipment in the refractory sector. This partnership marks the deep integration of China's industrial automation technology with international supply chains, injecting new momentum into the transformation and upgrading of global high-temperature industries. Refractory materials serve as the core foundational components for high-temperature industries such as steel, metallurgy, and building materials, where installation quality is directly tied to production safety and costs. However, traditional refractory construction has long relied on manual labor, facing challenges including

In October 2025, the Department of Industry and Information Technology of Hebei Province officially announced the 2025 list of National Specialized, Refined, Differential and Innovative “Little Giant” Enterprises, and Yinglai Tech is proudly on the list. This authoritative recognition indicates that Yinglai Tech’s professional capabilities, technical strength and innovative achievements in the field of industrial intelligence have been highly recognized at the national level.

In September 2025, the quadrennial SCHWEISSEN & SCHNEIDEN exhibition in Essen, Germany—one of the world's largest and most authoritative events for the welding industry—officially kicked off. Yinglai Technology made a stunning debut at the show with its all-new PF Series Laser Vision Seam Tracking System, bringing "Chinese wisdom" to global intelligent welding.

In March 2026, the customized intelligent production line for fired bricks developed by Yinglai Technology for a large refractory enterprise in Shandong, China was successfully delivered. To date, Yinglai Technology has supported more than 40 refractory enterprises worldwide in upgrading their facilities with smart manufacturing solutions.
