In 2021, China's robot industry will shoulder a new era mission. A new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation have accelerated the evolution, and a new generation of information technologies such as artificial intelligence, big data and cloud computing are deeply integrated with the robot industry, helping the high-quality economic development and serving people's life. At the same time, the robot industry has also ushered in a window period of upgrading and leapfrog development.
Industry insiders believe that man-machine cooperation, integration and intelligent control are the general trend.
Robots in China are developing towards intelligent systems
During the COVID-19, Hatchie intelligent logistics robot took no untouched delivery task in Guangzhou Ivy community, sent the express packages, vegetable & fruit to the doorstep of the residents. During the rush hour, the daily delivery of single robot exceeded 100 single, which effectively reduced the risk of "human transmission". Hu Jiawen, CEO of Hatchie Zhi said. The large-scale commercial use of logistics robots is the "epitome" of the great development of service robots in China in recent years.
For a long time, robot operating system, control platform and driving platform are "moat" technologies monopolized by overseas giants. In order to realize independent, controllable and domestic substitution as soon as possible, a large number of domestic enterprises have launched continuous research.
At the robot group booth of Harbin Institute of technology, several small black boxes attracted many people in the industry to stop and ask. Liu Pengfei, head of the intelligent controller project of the robot (Hefei) International Innovation Research Institute of Harbin Institute of technology, told reporters that this is the core components of the next generation robot - operating system, controller and integrated driving unit.
Industry insiders believe that robots in China are developing from unit operation to large intelligent system, and man-machine cooperation and intelligent control are the general trend. "Accelerating the high-quality development of the industry and tackling the difficulties of 'Strengthening the soul and brain' of core software and hardware is the key to make up for the shortcomings and enhance competitiveness," Liu Pengfei said. Compared with previous years, at the 2021 world robot conference, there are more cutting-edge achievements and new products in robot body, key parts, upstream and downstream of industrial chain and related fields.
Xin Guobin, Vice Minister of the Ministry of industry and information technology, introduced that the key industrialization capabilities such as domestic precision reducer and high-performance servo drive have been continuously improved, and some innovative achievements have reached the international advanced level.
Multidisciplinary integration injects new momentum into high-quality development
Guided by the optical tracking system, the staff controlled the manipulator through the computer console to demonstrate the operation process on the human spine model. "The research and development of orthopaedic surgical robot involves many disciplines such as medicine, mechanics, biomechanics and computer science. Colleges, companies and hospitals work together to complete scientific and technological innovation, transformation and application," said Chen Jinhu, a staff member of Beijing tianzhihang Medical Technology Co., Ltd.
Wang Yaonan, academician of the Chinese Academy of engineering, introduced that robot technology needs interdisciplinary integration. Robots have been widely used in people's livelihood, industry, agriculture, national defense and other fields. 5g, artificial intelligence and other key technologies determine the future of robots to a certain extent.
Experts pointed out that while the integration and innovation of robot related technologies continue to make progress, they also face blocking points such as the ownership of intellectual property rights and the shortage of interdisciplinary talents. It is still difficult to fully integrate industry, learning, research and capital. In order to solve the problems, many places across the country focus on building an innovative "micro ecology" suitable for the integrated development of the robot industry.
Taking Beijing Economic and Technological Development Zone, the venue of the robot conference, as an example, the region has built a world-class robot technology innovation and industrial cooperation platform to lead and drive the innovation and development of the robot industry. Liu Li, deputy director of the Management Committee of Beijing Economic Development Zone, introduced that the robot and intelligent manufacturing industry has become one of the four leading industries of the economic development zone. It is expected that it will become one of the 100 billion level industrial clusters of the economic development zone during the 14th Five Year Plan Period.
International collaborative innovation injects new impetus into the economy
"152 teslian Titan Series robots will provide visitor reception and interaction, catering and distribution services during the Dubai World Expo," said the person in charge of teslian Technology Group Co., Ltd.
While more and more Chinese robot products are going to the world, the technical exchanges at home and abroad are further accelerated, and the opening and cooperation are deepening. Zhang Jin, vice president of Xinsong Robot Automation Co., Ltd., introduced that at present, Xinsong has set up subsidiaries in many countries and gradually shifted from pure product output to capital and technology output. "We pay special attention to cooperation with overseas universities and scientific research institutes to carry out R & D according to local needs."
In the exhibition area of Foshan Sino German industrial service area, Han Zu, KUKA and other Chinese and foreign robot enterprises appeared on the same stage. Li Jie, deputy director of the Foreign Cooperation Bureau of the Management Committee of Foshan Sino German industrial service zone (sanlongwan), introduced that now foreign-funded enterprises landing in sanlongwan pay more attention to the opportunities for the transformation and upgrading of China's manufacturing industry, and become the mainstream in R & D, design and sales to Chinese customers in China. With the rapid development of China's robot industry, China has always practiced the concept of openness and cooperation, promoted the high-quality and sustainable development of the world's robot industry, and made greater contributions to human economic and social development.
"In 1994, SMC invested and built factories in China, of which 80% to 90% of the products were exported. Now we mainly provide supporting services for the Chinese market." Ma Qinghai, general manager of SMC Investment Management Co., Ltd., introduced that China's industry is developing rapidly, and there are many new needs and application scenarios, forcing SMC to develop new technologies and products. "The new products developed in China were then introduced to the world, driving the development of the global pneumatic industry. The vigorous development of China's robot industry has brought good development opportunities to SMC. Now our products are in short supply, and the sales increased by more than 50% from January to August this year."
Xin Guobin said that the Ministry of industry and information technology is taking the lead in formulating China's "14th five year plan" robot industry development plan, hoping to build China into a source of global robot technology innovation, a gathering place of high-end manufacturing and a new highland of integrated applications, and make "Chinese contributions" to the sustainable and healthy development of the global robot industry.
