Description
hardware flow control. It is an ideal choice in the field of industrial automation.
Machine replacement has become a noun of the times. The gradual disappearance of the demographic dividend has created opportunities for robots. In particular, some jobs in harsh environments require robots to take over. In May this year, the Guangdong Electric Power Research Institute of China Southern Power Grid successfully launched its first inspection robot. The product uses 3D laser navigation technology, can successfully bypass obstacles, and has passed field tests.
It is reported that the substation inspection robot can be connected with the Guangdong Power Grid centralized control platform to realize remote dispatching of substations and power supply bureaus. Through the networking function, the robot can transmit on-site data to the centralized control center for technicians to analyze and implement relevant measures. At the same time, this will greatly improve the efficiency of substation inspections and make up for the shortcomings of manual inspections.
Comment: Due to the scattered and remote locations of substations and certain safety hazards in high-voltage facilities, manual inspection has brought certain difficulties. China Southern Power Grid’s substation inspection robots can effectively replace workers in power station inspections and hand over these low-value tasks to machines, which can also reduce labor costs and promote the improvement of the overall automation level of the power grid.
The third factory of Yaskawa Robot Co., Ltd. was completed
For global robot manufacturers, China is an indispensable market, and major robot manufacturers have entered and deployed in China. On June 15, Yaskawa (China) Robotics Company, one of the four largest families in the world, held the completion ceremony of its third factory in Changzhou. The new factory will increase the production of 500 industrial robots per month for Yaskawa Group, bringing Yaskawa’s production capacity in China to 18,000 units per year.
According to Yaskawa Robot’s description, the new factory is to meet the rising robot market made in China, and it plans to establish a robot R&D center in the new factory to develop robot products suitable for local needs based on China’s local characteristics. The investment and construction of this factory indicates that Yaskawa will increase its investment in China’s robot industry and prepare for the rapidly growing market demand in the future.
Comment: China’s industrial robot sales increased by 58% last year, making it the world’s largest industrial robot market. With the expansion of policies and robot application fields, China’s robot industry will have greater room for growth in the future. Yaskawa is building a new factory and expanding its robot production capacity in China. This shows the company’s confidence in the Chinese market and also shows Yaskawa’s intention to seize the Chinese market.
Collaborative robot company Rethink Robotics announces closure
Under the wave of transformation and upgrading of the manufacturing industry, collaborative robots are playing an increasingly important role. As a leader in the field of global collaborative robots, Rethink Robotics has two intelligent collaborative robots, Baxter and Sawyer. These two robot products are among the best in the world . At the leading level, it was once regarded as the most promising intelligent collaborative robot. However, sales of Baxter and Sawyer robots were unsatisfactory, and in October this year the company suddenly announced its closure, a move that caused lamentation in the industry.
It is reported that the products of Rethink Robotics have not really opened up in the market. This may be related to the design of the product. Although the functions of intelligent collaborative robots are powerful, they are also very expensive and are uncompetitive compared with low-cost collaborative robots on the market. . Rethink Robotics invested heavily in the development of this intelligent collaborative robot, but insufficient funds forced the company to cease operations. Subsequently, all patents and trademarks of Rethink Robotics and its software platform were transferred to the German Hahn Group, and some employees were taken over by the competitor company Univers al Robots.
Comment: The robot industry is a big cake, attracting competition from various capital and technology companies, and also accelerating competition in the industry. The design of a product needs to consider the actual needs of the market. No matter how advanced the function is, if the cost and the actual market environment are not taken into consideration, the product may be just an ornament. Although Rethink Robotics received US$150 million in funding and created the world’s most advanced collaborative robot products, the market could not accept its high price and ultimately failed.
JD.com and Newstar cooperate to develop end-of-line delivery robots
Robots have great prospects in the field of logistics, especially today with the development of e-commerce. Robots can play an important role in warehouse sorting, handling, storage, transportation, express delivery and other processes. The market opportunities for logistics robots are growing. In September this year, JD.com and Newstar signed a strategic cooperation agreement. The two parties will jointly promote the mass production of terminal delivery robots and intelligent robot services.
As a Chinese e-commerce giant, JD.com urgently needs to reduce the cost of logistics and distribution. Logistics robot products can replace human labor and transport goods to their destinations, which will greatly reduce the cost of e-commerce operations and improve the overall intelligence of the logistics system. Newstar is a leader in the field of robots. Cooperation between the two can accelerate the implementation of logistics robot projects.
Comment: Rising labor costs have forced companies to consider using robots. Robots have expanded in application scenarios from manufacturing to public life. In the logistics industry, the potential value of robots is huge. Among them, terminal delivery robots can solve the problem of the last mile of logistics and express delivery, reduce manpower investment and improve the intelligent experience of services. JD.com and Newstar, one is an e-commerce giant and the other is an expert in the field of robotic automation. The cooperation between the two can achieve the effect of complementary advantages and will accelerate the process of smart logistics.
ABB invests US$150 million to build the world’s most advanced robot factory
On October 27, the world’s industrial robot giant ABB announced that it will invest US$150 million to build the world’s largest and most advanced flexible robot factory in Shanghai. This demonstrates the upgrade of ABB’s strategic investment in China and its optimism about China as the world’s largest robot factory. The prospects of the robot market. The new factory will adopt ABB’s connected digital technology, including ABB Ability solutions, collaborative robots, artificial intelligence and other advanced technologies.
In addition, ABB has also signed a strategic cooperation agreement with the Shanghai government to support the development of Shanghai’s industry, energy, transportation and other fields. Shanghai is the largest hub in China’s robotics industry, with giants such as FANUC, ABB, Yaskawa, and KUKA all opening factories one after another. The construction of ABB’s new factory will expand ABB’s production capacity in China and help it seize the Chinese robot market share.
Comment: The global robot industry has entered a rapid growth channel, especially China, as the world’s largest robot market, attracting the deployment of many domestic and foreign manufacturers. ABB’s large investment in building a new factory in China is precisely because it sees the potential of China’s robot market. China is a major manufacturing country. Once the demand for robot applications in various industries is opened, the market prospects will be unlimited.
