From the IT era to the DT ERA to attack the robot research and development difficulties

The man who passes the dish becomes the machine hand, the collection silver, the packing work all by the robot single-handedly ... Future, such a scenario will become a reality. Not long ago, there are shops, restaurants appeared robot waiter, it will be in Mandarin kindly tell the guests: "Your order is good, please slow, thank you!" I went to work. ”

In yesterday's CPPCC panel discussion, scientific and technological members of the science and technology industry discussed the topic of automation, intelligent manufacturing, from industrial 4.0 to intelligent robots. Members believe that we have entered the DT era from the IT era, as the main force of intelligent manufacturing, industrial robots are constantly penetrating into various fields, but also changing our production and lifestyle. Hope that the relevant departments under the guidance of the formation of resultant force, as soon as possible to overcome the difficulties of intelligent robot research and development.

Liuchong:

The core of "Industry 4.0" is automation and intellectualization

Liuchong, deputy general manager of China Automotive Industry Engineering Company, is concerned about the topic of "Industry 4.0". He said that as a global manufacturing power, Germany pioneered the concept of "industrial 4.0" and formed a national strategy, which helps it to continuously enhance industrial competitiveness and realize the deep integration of industrialization and informatization. After the introduction of the concept of "industrial 4.0" into China, it has also aroused wide concern and become the next target of Chinese industry. "Objectively speaking, the overall level of German industry is over 3.0, and our overall level is still less than 3.0." ”

In Liuchong's view, the core of "Industry 4.0" is automation and intelligence. At present, in China's industrial system, many enterprises are still in the state of semi-automatic, production efficiency is not high, energy consumption, pollutant emissions are much higher than developed countries. To "Industry 4.0" in the process of moving forward, first of all to solve the problem of automation, and in this process, the intelligent robot appears very important.

Liuchong pointed out that China's research and development of intelligent robots, from more than 20 years ago, some people are doing, but the core technology in China is not fully mastered. "I judged that in the next few years, in China's manufacturing industry, the demand for intelligent robots will soar, if we can not achieve breakthroughs in this area, without mastering the core technology, our ' Industrial 4.0 ' plan will be difficult to achieve." He hoped that the Government departments concerned could integrate the industry resources as soon as possible and systematically develop intelligent robots to attack the difficulties.

Xu Xiaolan:

Manufacturing upgrades and robot development

"The Age of Robotics has come!" "CPPCC member, China Electronic Society Secretary General Xu Xiaolan quickly took over the topic."

Xu Xiaolan that the current domestic robot enterprises close to 400, of which the industrial robot enterprises reached 353, the rapid growth of the market. Due to the rapid upgrading of manufacturing industry, labor costs are also rising rapidly, under the influence of this dual factors, the development of China's industrial robots, is expected in the next few years China's industrial robot market will show a rapid growth trend.

She agrees with Liuchong that China's service robots are also a huge market. The service robot has the friendliness, the function, the personification, the security and the economy, mainly manifests in the human function and the intelligence substitution. However, she also suggested that the domestic market of service robots is not well developed, so the service robot industry is relatively weak.
