Deepening Digital Transformation to Accelerate Excellence in Manufacturing for the Industry 4.0 Era

Tianqi Lithium is committed to empowering modern enterprise management through cutting-edge digital technologies. By continuously integrating technological innovation and intelligent manufacturing upgrades, we accelerate the deep integration of Industry 4.0 technologies (4IR) with lithium chemical processes, driving excellence in manufacturing and fostering new productive forces through digital and intelligent innovation.

Through long-term global strategic planning and meticulous industry chain development, Tianqi Lithium has established a transformation platform rooted in its corporate mission: "Business-Finance Integration as the Core, Smart Factories and Intelligent Mines as Key Drivers." Moving forward, Tianqi will further leverage digital intelligence to build a production and operation system characterized by horizontal collaboration, vertical control, flexibility, and comprehensive support. This system aims to enhance efficiency, optimize costs, and inject robust momentum into sustainable development amidst a complex global market environment. Tianqi Lithium will also lead by example in steering the industry toward low-carbon, green, intelligent, and high-end advancements.

1. Intelligent Production Manufacturing

Tianqi Lithium relentlessly pursues manufacturing excellence by integrating Industry 4.0 technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence, expert systems, and industrial internet platforms. This integration strengthens core competitive advantages in production operations, enhances data collection and analysis across production, processes, quality, materials, equipment, energy, and environmental metrics, and optimizes resource allocation. By improving predictive capabilities and maximizing economies of scale, we drive the transformation of lithium chemical manufacturing toward lean, intelligent, and low-carbon practices. Tianqi Lithium remains dedicated to advancing sustainable manufacturing through technological innovation, catalyzing industry-wide transformation.

2. Precision Quality Control

Adhering to CNAS standards, Tianqi Lithium has established a fully automated and standardized digital quality management platform to ensure real-time integration of accurate lab data with production controls. By optimizing laboratory resources, we achieve end-to-end digital management of personnel, equipment, materials, methods, environment, and measurements, guaranteeing traceability and transparency across raw materials, work-in-progress, and finished products. This digital quality system not only boosts inspection efficiency and management capabilities but also empowers decision-making for R&D, production, and process innovation.Building on this foundation, the company has adopted Six Sigma methodology to elevate the maturity of its quality management system. Through process optimization and defect reduction, Tianqi Lithium enhances product consistency and reliability, achieving dual improvements in quality management and production efficiency.

3. Green and Safe Production

Tianqi Lithium upholds the principle that "economic interests shall never override safety, environmental protection, or health." In alignment with China’s Pilot Construction Plan for "Industrial Internet + Hazardous Chemical Safety Production," we actively integrate industrial internet, AI, and other next-gen technologies with safety management at production sites. This drives comprehensive upgrades in EHS (Environment, Health, and Safety) governance and capabilities. By implementing EHS management systems, we rigorously enforce emergency management standards across mines and factories, clarify roles and responsibilities within the EHS framework, and transition from a single-track safety model to a culture of whole-team participation.
