Dongguan Zhizhi learns from the United States or introduces collaborative robots

At the 2016 US-South China (Dongguan) Industrial Automation Technology Exchange Conference held on the afternoon of November 29th, as a very important part of the exchange of Zhibo, the chief business consul of the US Consulate General in Guangzhou, Chen Hua (microblogging) super led one Representatives of American industrial automation companies exchanged views with representatives of participating companies on topics such as connected enterprises, motion control technologies, and intelligent collaborative robots. Yang Xiaotong, deputy mayor of Dongguan City, believes that through the exchange meeting, cooperation between Dongguan enterprises and American companies in smart manufacturing technologies and products will be further enhanced, business opportunities will be brought forward, and Dongguan transformation and upgrading will be promoted.

Small and medium-sized enterprises need to be automated

“In 2015, US companies exported nearly $10.5 billion in industrial automation equipment, and the global automation industry will reach $52.7 billion in 2020, which will bring unprecedented opportunities for cooperation between China and the United States,” said Chen Huachao. In the eyes, we will exchange cutting-edge industrial automation experience, the most advanced development technologies and solutions, so that Chinese and American companies continue to be strong partners in the advanced manufacturing industry.

Chen Wei, sales manager of Southern Region of Rockwell Automation (China) Co., Ltd., said that compared with the United States, China's manufacturing industry is slightly better in terms of infrastructure construction and water automation, but it is less automated in the medical and pharmaceutical field. In these areas, it is still in the traditional production and manufacturing.

In China, companies tend to focus on the segmentation of the field, while the United States, Europe and the United States and some developed countries have opened the "whole system solution." Nowadays, many companies have developed a multi-strategy and multi-functional central integrated system through large-scale self-development, and provide solutions for manufacturers through product + system.

From the trend of this year's Zhibo Fair, the automation factor has increased significantly, which is closely related to the development trend of Dongguan manufacturing industry. Chen Wei said that with the increase in costs, labor-intensive industries are shifting, and the competitiveness of Dongguan's manufacturing industry is beginning to decline, forcing enterprises to upgrade their automation. “Many manufacturing companies in Dongguan have urgent transformation needs, and they hope to optimize the transformation of the industry. For example, there are many small and medium-sized enterprises such as furniture and footwear in the venue. These enterprises often need 'small batches and multiple batches'. Production, there is no need to automate production to improve production efficiency."

Production line to meet flexible needs

However, in the face of national goals, companies have also faced various challenges. Chen Hao listed various problems faced by Chinese customers. He said that this is reflected in sustainable development, production line optimization, and demand-driven.

For example, to reduce costs and improve efficiency, enterprises are launching more and more large-scale automation equipment, and there are many problems. For example, Tsingtao Brewery and China Resources Beer, the dumping of a beer bottle on the conveyor line may cause this. The line has to start again. To this end, Rockwell designed specialized software to reduce the probability of a conveyor line failure.

On the other hand, China's middle class is more and more, and its demand has changed. It needs more high-end, customized products. "For example, before our friend circle also forwarded some cases, P&G's Head & Shoulders, Rejoice, why it was sold before," Chen said, many companies have found that relying on the experience of the United States and the West to treat the Chinese market is no longer good. It shows that the change of consumer demand has brought new challenges to the enterprise, and a production line has to meet more flexible needs.

However, Lin Shunqiang, the largest industrial robot company in the United States, and the sales manager of Omron Automation (China) Co., Ltd., also warned that with the boom of robots, robotic overseas mergers and acquisitions have become a common phenomenon, and the robot industry has begun to emerge. Impetuous signs. "Now the streets are full of robots. In other words, robot homogenization is too serious!"

"Robot companies are fighting for price, they are all fighting price wars, which can only make the vicious competition of the industry more and more." Lin Shunqiang suggested, "In fact, we must break through to learn from the US experience, and the US practice is to do it." Specialized, with the understanding of the market and customers, focus on the segmentation field and make its own characteristics in the professional field."

Lin Shunqiang revealed: "Individualized customization, flexible production, and overall solutions are the path for the development of the robot industry in the future. Enterprises in Dongguan can try to develop in this direction."

Wan enterprise can introduce collaborative robots

At the conference, Scara robots, which can be used for enterprise automation, dazzled the representatives of the participating companies. Pan Qianchao, a Greater China robotics expert from Rethink RoboTIcs Robotics, a pioneer in collaborative robotics in the United States, said that according to previous surveys, workers in Guangdong can get a monthly salary of 5,000-6,000 yuan, a significant increase over the previous years. . As low-cost labor-intensive models are rapidly phased out, consumer demand is small, product cycles are short, real-time production is high, and customization needs are high, and manufacturers are in urgent need of flexible solutions to cope with new trends.

Pan Zhichao said that collaborative robots already had this concept in 2008 and officially entered the domestic market in 2015. They are still new in the domestic market and are widely used in the United States.

Speaking of the advantages of collaborative robots, Pan Zhichao said that in the overall solution, in a production line, full robot production or full manual production is unrealistic and does not meet the future development trend. "Taking the electronics industry as an example, some complicated processes in production cannot be done by machines. People cannot work with large conventional machines because of dangers. Such small and flexible robots can meet these enterprises. demand."

Pan Zhichao said that this kind of collaborative robot is simpler to operate than ordinary robots, and can be operated by simple industrial workers. “In normal situations, people can teach robots to work, and before they pull the robot to the device, it automatically responds to the program and starts industrial operations.”
