Shanghai Xinshida Intelligent Factory, with a total investment of 690 million yuan and an annual output of 10,000 industrial robots, was put into operation in Jiading. The third phase of Shanghai Fanuc Smart Factory, a cooperation between global robotics giant Fanuc and Shanghai Electric, has started construction... Recently, there have been a lot of good news about The robot industry in Shanghai.
Known as the "pearl in the crown of manufacturing industry", robots are an important symbol to measure the level of scientific and technological innovation and high-end manufacturing in a country. The latest data shows that one-third of the world's robot production is in China, and one-third of China's robot production is in Shanghai. The robot industry has become a new name card of "Made in Shanghai".
Bucking the trend in the face of the epidemic
Last year was an extraordinary year for the robotics industry. "Due to the slowdown of the automobile industry and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the output value of industrial robots in Shanghai was once in danger of decline, but the leading enterprises such as Xinshida and Zhongke Siasong actively turned the crisis into opportunities and bucked the trend." Shanghai Economic and Information Technology Commission intelligent manufacturing promotion division director Han Dadong said.
In the face of the outbreak, face to face communication is difficult, to set up in the factory when the new application field of the same scene with customers and technical level of the international first-line brand, sales, marketing, engineering and r&d team to cooperate, major technological breakthrough, especially in the core technology of the robot, motion control algorithms have made remarkable achievements.
In April last year, when the epidemic situation was severe, shshida's palletizer sp120/2400 beat rate exceeded 1,000 packets per hour, an increase of 54 percent. During the International Industrial Expo in September, this index exceeded 1200 packets/hour, achieving the parallel with international first-tier brands. Yi Ji, chairman of Shinshida Electric, revealed that in the first three quarters of last year, the company's net profit was about 76.52 million yuan, up 36.64 percent year on year.
China's largest seven-axis robot manufacturer, China Science And Technology Co., LTD., focuses on the trend of small batch and diversified demand. Last year, the GCR5 cooperative robot was launched with a load of 5 kg, a arm span of 910 mm, a joint angular velocity of 225 degrees/s, and a repetition accuracy of ±0.03 mm. It is the fastest cooperative robot in the industry.
'Last year, although foreign demand slowed down, domestic demand continued to be released,' said Yang, sinson's president. Domestic automobile oEMS, flexible chip production, medical robot surgery test and other scenarios, became the company's main battlefield last year.
The recovery of domestic manufacturing momentum to pull the role has begun to appear. In early December last year, Fanuc Shanghai phase III plant, covering an area of 431 mu with a total investment of 1.58 billion yuan, officially opened in Shanghai. It will be fanuc group's largest robot base in the world after Japan, and its annual output value is expected to reach 10 billion yuan. Qian Hui, general manager of Shanghai Fanuc Robotics, said the company's nationwide sales hit a record high last year.
Service robots usher in golden decade
While industrial robots seek opportunities in adversity, service robots see explosive growth. In the medical, business, education and people's livelihood and other robot applications, a number of industries such as Dacarati, Gao Xian emerged.
"Orders are too late, demand is beyond imagination." Wang Bing, chairman of Dati Robot, admitted that since the outbreak, he has been watching the scene almost every day to catch up with the progress. As the leader of the domestic service robot, dacati robot in the epidemic outstanding performance, so that it has become a "hot". Ta robot with a week alone in wuhan, building the country's first "smart application hospital" square - wuchang hospital, in the clouds of the brain intelligent dispatching command, through the medical robots, robot scout robot, cleaning, disinfection, transport robot and temperature measuring robot 24-hour online operations, such as real time increase the square hospital operation efficiency; In Shanghai, the 5G cloud cleaning and disinfection robot in Shanghai Children's Hospital can efficiently and independently complete cleaning and disinfection tasks in the hospital, reduce working hours of staff and avoid cross-infection.
At present, dacati robot in Shanghai intelligent flexible joint SCA production and robot production line has entered the stage of mass production. Wang Bing said that now we are looking forward to the early completion of the daguan intelligent robot industrial base in Minhang, in order to create a world-class intelligent robot core parts manufacturing base.
Titanium rice robots, born in Pudong, are also emerging as a new force in the fight against the epidemic. Multi-functional disinfection robots have become popular, and orders from hospitals are growing rapidly. Pan Jing, general manager of Tiimi Robot, said that hundreds of tiimi medical robot products, nearly 10, have been used in more than 200 large third-class a hospitals in China. Aiming at the direction of "medical robot", Ti Mi is sprinting to the science and technology innovation board.
Dai Liu, president of the Shanghai Robot Industry Association, said that service robots are lagging behind in the development of the robot industry, and China's development is almost synchronized with that of the international community. As a dominant terminal product after the combination of manufacturing and AI, with the development of China's AI technology, the accompanying service robot will also usher in a golden growth period in the next decade.
We will promote the consolidation and strengthening of industrial chains
After years of rapid growth, the robot industry has become an important pillar for Shanghai to promote scientific and technological innovation and develop intelligent manufacturing.
Today, the output of industrial robots in Shanghai accounts for about 1/9 of the global scale. Fanuc, ABB, Yaskawa and Kuka, the four major international robot families, have all set up their Headquarters or robot headquarters in China. Domestic leading robot companies such as Siestar, Siasun and USTC have expanded their investment layout. At the same time, small I, dacati, Gaoxian, titanium rice and a large number of subdivision of the head of the rapid growth of enterprises, the rise of a new generation of industrial force and technology source.
Accompanying with it is increasingly complete industrial ecology. Fudan University has established the Intelligent Robot Research Institute, which is committed to forming a series of intelligent terminals with independent intellectual property rights and a new economic model of industrial research and development based on robots. Robotics Institute of Shanghai University, Shanghai Electric Appliance Research Institute, Central Research Institute of Shanghai Electric Equipment, Advanced Robotics Laboratory of Shanghai University of Science and Technology, Medical Robotics Institute of Shanghai Jiao Tong University and Robotics Institute of Shanghai Jiao Tong University are also helping to make breakthroughs in key core technologies of Shanghai robot industry.
In terms of spatial layout, Shanghai robot industry has initially formed a "3+X" spatial layout, "3" refers to Jiading District, Baoshan District of Shanghai Robot Industrial Park and Pudong New Area, "X" refers to the joint development of multiple industrial parks. Pudong has officially released the industrial robot map and "a valley of a garden planning, plan began to form in zhangjiang, jinqiao area of 3.9 square kilometers, and 5.5 square kilometers of robot industry development space, and create the world first-class technology innovation center, medical robots highlands, discrete intelligent manufacturing characteristic industrial park, service platform cluster innovation function, We will foster a cross-boundary and integrated development ecosystem. By 2023, Pudong will be built into a leading robot industry development highland with high international influence and a total industrial scale of 50 billion yuan.
For the next development direction of The robot industry in Shanghai, the relevant person in charge of The Shanghai Economic and Information Technology Commission said that it would accelerate the expansion of the promotion and application of robots in all walks of life, build a demonstration benchmark project of industrial robot application, carry out the "10030" special project in the city, and promote the construction of 100 intelligent manufacturing factories with the help of robot empowerment. Drive the addition of 10,000 robots.
At the same time, it will accelerate the implementation and promotion of major industrial projects of service robots, focus on service robot enterprises in the fields of medical treatment, education, security and customer service, and strive to cultivate 3 to 5 domestic service robot leaders, build an industrial highland of service robots, and support the development of "online new economy" in Shanghai.
