The steel industry is a necessary support for modern life and economic development, and the Chinese steel industry\u2019s capacity has expanded to roughly half of global production. However, the Chinese steel industry is now confronted with high labor costs, massive carbon emissions, a low level of intelligence, low production efficiency, and unstable quality control. Therefore, China\u2019s steel industry has launched several large-scale intelligent manufacturing initiatives to improve production efficiency, product quality, manual labor intensity, and employee working conditions. Unfortunately, there is no comprehensive overview of intelligent manufacturing in China\u2019s steel industry. We began this research by summarizing the construction goals and overall framework for intelligent manufacturing of the steel industry in China. Following that, we offered a brief review of intelligent manufacturing for China\u2019s steel industry, as well as descriptions of two typical intelligent manufacturing models. Finally, some major technologies employed for intelligent production in China\u2019s steel industry were introduced. This research not only helps to comprehend the development model, essential technologies, and construction techniques of intelligent manufacturing in China\u2019s steel industry, but it also provides vital inspiration for the manufacturing industry\u2019s digital and intelligence updates and quality improvement.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s22218194","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,10,26]],"date-time":"2022-10-26T07:17:48Z","timestamp":1666768668000},"page":"8194","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":66,"title":["Intelligent Manufacturing Technology in the Steel Industry of China: A Review"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"22","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4986-729X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Dongdong","family":"Zhou","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Collaborative Innovation Center of Steel Technology, University of Science and Technology Beijing, 30 Xueyuan Road, Haidian District, Beijing 100083, China"},{"name":"Yangjiang Alloy Material Laboratory, 1 Luoqin Road, Jiangcheng District, Yangjiang 529500, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1809-7413","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ke","family":"Xu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Collaborative Innovation Center of Steel Technology, University of Science and Technology Beijing, 30 Xueyuan Road, Haidian District, Beijing 100083, China"},{"name":"Yangjiang Alloy Material Laboratory, 1 Luoqin Road, Jiangcheng District, Yangjiang 529500, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7313-5796","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Zhimin","family":"Lv","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Collaborative Innovation Center of Steel Technology, University of Science and Technology Beijing, 30 Xueyuan Road, Haidian District, Beijing 100083, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jianhong","family":"Yang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Mechanical Engineering, University of Science and Technology Beijing, 30 Xueyuan Road, Haidian District, Beijing 100083, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Min","family":"Li","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Collaborative Innovation Center of Steel Technology, University of Science and Technology Beijing, 30 Xueyuan Road, Haidian District, Beijing 100083, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Fei","family":"He","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Collaborative Innovation Center of Steel Technology, University of Science and Technology Beijing, 30 Xueyuan Road, Haidian District, Beijing 100083, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Gang","family":"Xu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Collaborative Innovation Center of Steel Technology, University of Science and Technology Beijing, 30 Xueyuan Road, Haidian District, Beijing 100083, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,10,26]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Guo, Z., Wang, C., Yang, G., Huang, Z., and Li, G.
