hardware flow control. It is an ideal choice in the field of industrial automation.
China”s robot market is growing rapidly, and collaborative robots will be the future trend
ABB, a world-renowned robotics company, held a media conference on the first day of the CIIF. ABB Robotics Global President Ni Side,
ABB Robotics China Head Mr. Li Gang, and ABB Robotics Global Marketing and Sales Director Steven Wyatt attended the event . press conference.
At this press conference, ABB Robotics executives not only introduced ABB”s development in China, demonstrated the technology and
development direction of ABB”s future factories, but also released the small six-axis robots IRB 1100 and IRB 910INV, which are characterized
by light weight and compact size. Flip-type SCARA robot. In addition, Chinese robot companies that are in the growth stage can also get useful
inspiration from this media conference.
■China’s robot market is growing rapidly
Ni Side said that in 2017, the growth rate of global robots reached a new high for five consecutive years, with the Americas growing by 22%,
about 50,000 units; Europe growing by 20%, about 67,000 units; Asia growing by 34%, about 255,000 units, of which China grew by 59%. %, reaching
138,000 units. “This is an absolutely rapid growth level, so when it comes to the market in 2017, it is indeed a year that surprises and delights ABB. I also
very much hope that there will be more vigorous development in the future.” Niside said that ABB has the largest sales volume of robots. Among the top ten
markets, China ranks first, with sales data far ahead of South Korea, Japan, the United States and Germany. He believes that in 2018 and 2019, China”s
market sales will still far exceed the sum of the next four, taking the first place. In addition, Vietnam has also become an important market for ABB robot sales, ranking seventh overnight.
Li Gang also expressed that he is full of expectations for the development prospects of industrial robots in China.
“First of all, the country guides the upgrading and transformation of industries from the policy perspective. We can see from
some data that in 2016, there were an average of 74 industrial robots per 10,000 people in the world, 99 in the United States, 84 in Europe and 68 in
China. This number will continue to grow. Secondly, China”s demographic dividend is disappearing, labor costs are rising, and aging is increasing.” Li
Gang said, taking Shanghai as an example, the proportion of the population aged 60 was 31% in 2016, and it has risen
to 33% in 2017 . “Everyone has also mentioned that our younger generation born in the 1990s is no longer interested in
repeating simple and tedious tasks. In addition, the manufacturing industry is also facing a situation, that is, customer needs have also changed, from large
quantities and small varieties to We are developing towards multiple varieties and small batches, and robots are a very good tool to solve this problem.”
“In 2017, the automotive industry is still the largest application field of industrial robots, but the electronics industry is
almost following closely behind. I think this is a good phenomenon.” Niside said that ABB will not focus on just one industry or
one industry. “We”re seeing growth in the food and beverage industry, and the metals industry has seen exciting global growth over the last year.”
■Collaborative robots will be the future trend
Currently, many domestic and foreign companies are conducting research and development of collaborative robots. In Li
Gang”s view, “This is enough to show that everyone is very optimistic about this market, and that ABB”s launch of YuMi is
the right direction.” Li Gang said that he would not evaluate other companies, ” But from ABB”s own perspective, we have
accumulated rich experience
since the launch of YuMi.” Li Gang said that collaborative robots are the future development direction, but how to improve the
application of collaborative robots, “I believe there is a lot of work in this area. Yes, we have done a lot of work.”
Niside also believes that the collaborative robot market will indeed become larger and larger, with many companies
around the world entering the market. “The reason for this development is that collaborative robots can help us automate
some tasks, which was not possible before.” Ni Side said that as a company, ABB is very happy to see that its efforts are in the right direction. “We
have dual-arm and single-arm YuMi collaborative robots, as well as the Safe Move2 function, which can help us achieve the safety of collaborative
robots. Through different types of collaborative robots, our robots can work at high speed under high loads. .
Not only are robots safer, but they also have safe application scenarios.”
Ni Side said that with the development of the market, I believe other people will become more and more aware of
collaborative robots and believe that collaborative robots have a bright future.
■Logistics and warehousing automation has great potential
Li Gang said that ABB has recently seen a promising industry, which is e-commerce. “China”s e-commerce is
developing very rapidly. Especially when chatting with e-commerce customers, everyone mentioned that how to
deliver goods to customers on June 18 and Double
Eleven is a problem.” Li Gang said that many things can Through online shopping, the variety is also very rich,
but with it comes the increase in logistics company space and labor. “And our customers have very high timeliness
requirements, which provides a good scenario for the
application of our robots in this field.”
According to Li Gang, ABB has recently developed some solutions for the logistics industry. “ABB established an
incubator for the logistics industry in 2017 and now has developed an automated three-dimensional warehouse to
increase efficiency while occupying less space. In addition, there are mixed Material
depalletizing.” Li Gang said that in addition to these solutions, ABB believes that robot applications in food and
beverage, plastics and other fields have broad prospects.
