China's robotics technology has achieved significant development

With the development of science and technology and economy, the advantages of cheap labor in China have gradually disappeared, and the robot industry as an emerging field has rapidly emerged. It is expected to become the world's largest demand market in 2014.

Basic robotics: kinematics, dynamic analysis and synthesis of robotic mechanisms, robot motion control algorithms and robot programming languages, research and development of robot internal and external sensors, and research on multisensor control systems, offline The programming technology and control technology of remote-controlled robots have made considerable progress and have been applied in practical work.

Research and development in the cell technology and basic components of robots: AC/DC servo motors and their drive systems, tachogenerators, photoelectric encoders, hydraulic (pneumatic) components, ball screws, linear rolling guides, harmonic deceleration Some prototypes or products have been developed for RV gears, RV reducers, cross-roller bearings, and thin-wall bearings. However, these components are still a long way from mass production.

In the development of robot control devices, multiple robot control devices with dual CPUs, multiple CPUs, and hierarchical hierarchical control have been developed, and the grades of the main control computers have also been gradually upgraded.

In the development of robot manipulators: Some advanced manipulators and special robots have been developed, such as AGVs (Automatic Guided Vehicles), wall crawling robots, and assembly robots with an accuracy of ±O.024mm for repeatable positioning, and can infiltrate into the water of the seabed at 6000m. Under robots, mobile robots, mobile robots, master-slave robots, etc., some have reached practical levels and are used in practical projects.

In the field of application engineering of robots: At present, several arc welding robot production lines, assembly robot production lines, spray production lines and welding production lines have been established in China. Domestic robot technology R&D has already possessed the capability of large-scale robot engineering design and implementation. The overall performance has reached the advanced level of similar international products, and the overall price is only two-thirds or even half of similar foreign products, and it has very good performance. Price ratio and market competitiveness.

In recent years, robotic automated production lines have emerged in China and have brought significant benefits to users. With the continuous improvement of the automation level of industrial enterprises in China, the robot automation line market will also become larger and larger, and it will gradually become the main mode of automated production lines.

The market for robotic automation production equipment in China has just started, and domestic equipment manufacturing industry is in the transition from traditional equipment to advanced manufacturing equipment. This brings enormous opportunities to research and development of robotic automation production lines. According to predictions, at present, China only needs more than 300 automatic lines such as the automotive industry, electronics and home appliance industry, tobacco industry, and new energy battery industry. The output value is approximately RMB 6 billion. It is estimated that around 600 such automated production lines will be required around 2005. According to preliminary calculations, the demand capacity of the automobile manufacturing industry during the “Eleventh Five-Year Plan” period will reach more than RMB 80 billion.

China's existing major industrial robot manufacturers have a relatively small scale of production, which is far from the current market demand. Only when the scale of production meets mass production capacity can we improve the stability, reliability, and cost reduction of robots in order to occupy the domestic market. At present, it mainly produces the first generation of teaching and reproducing robots. With the needs of the construction, petrochemical, food, nuclear, underwater, high-altitude and micro-processing industries, a number of new models will be introduced, such as high-load, high-precision, snake-shaped, unmanned aerial vehicles, and home and patient care. , blind guide dogs and so on. Currently, Shanghai, Shenyang, and Beijing are gradually establishing industrial bases for robots and their automated production lines, and a number of robots with robotic intellectual property rights and their automated production line products with market prospects have been developed. Further strengthen cooperation with foreign companies, introduce advanced technology and funds to make China become an international production robot base, occupy the domestic market and go global.
