hardware flow control. It is an ideal choice in the field of industrial automation.
There will be many changes in employment patterns. The days when one generation learned one job and the next generation learned another are over. I
have two sons, ages 16 and 19, and I tell them to be prepared to forget their job skills two or three times in their careers and take on new challenges.
Artificial intelligence will reshape manufacturing
Caijing: What technology has the greatest impact on manufacturing?
Spiesshofer: Artificial intelligence. If applied properly, AI technology can unleash human potential and bring significant changes to production, wealth,
and prosperity. It will make automation more autonomous. There will be self-optimizing factories in the future. Repetitive and difficult work will be completed
through automation, and humans can focus on more creative work.
Caijing: How does ABB integrate artificial intelligence technology and automation technology? What are the differences between robots equipped with artificial
intelligence technology and previous robots?
Spiesshofer: Let me tell you a story first and then explain it systematically. Last September, at the Coliseum in Pisa, we asked our two-arm robot YuMi to conduct
a symphony orchestra, and the world-famous singer Andrea Bocelli sang under its command. Through this, we demonstrated what AI and robots can do.
If we put this learning process in an actual industrial environment, assuming you are a small company that produces toys in Wuhan, China, and you want to use
robots, what can we provide you? Through an AI technology-supported software package called Robot Studio, we can introduce experiences similar to your work
scenarios and provide support for professionals in robot application planning. All of this is supported by AI technology. Therefore, AI is involved in the planning process.
When you start using these robots in operation, you may worry that I am just a small company and I cannot afford to pay for a maintenance engineer. But ABB
can monitor the status of all robots, store the data in the cloud, and compare it with the data of thousands of other robots. It can intelligently predict its possible downtime
and accurately calculate the maintenance costs and time you need, even as a robot. A small company can also afford it.
So I think if AI can be applied well, it will enhance the value of technology to humans and enable it to serve more people at a lower cost. At present, the application
of technology is still expensive. Hardware is only part of it, and the engineering application of technology is still a large expense, whether it is setup, installation or operation
. If we can make it cheaper, more companies will Affordable, more companies can produce quality products at attractive costs, which means more people can afford them,
so more people can have jobs, and more people can be created. need.
ABB is part of Made in China 2025
Caijing: People have been talking about trade wars this year, anti-globalization sentiment is rising, and various trade protection policies are being introduced.
What impact do these changes have on you?
Spiesshofer: Market sentiment is generally positive, but there are also many uncertainties, including regulatory, trade, and political. As CEO, I have to
guide ABB forward in this challenging environment. For me, long-term certainty helps me lead the company better. I hope that the future world will be more certain.
Caijing: What do you understand by Made in China 2025?
Spiesshofer: ABB can play a fundamental role in this, because Made in China 2025 can only succeed when Chinese companies can produce enough internationally
competitive products. To this end, Chinese companies need automation and robots, and we can provide these technologies. Now we have a complete integrated value
The future of manufacturing is coming, and it will integrate artificial intelligence technology with traditional automation and robotics technologies. China is writing a
new history of integrating artificial intelligence technology with traditional manufacturing. China”s role is changing, its technological capabilities are changing, and China has
the opportunity to make greater contributions and become a world leader.
