Wang Xiangbin believes that, on the other hand, thanks to the rich application scenarios of China’s industrial robots, the autonomous control of PLC, servo, inverter and even chip has been achieved, and the progress is rapid.

“We are also rapidly accumulating capital and technology, because the use of the robot scene is closely related to the industry, the industry provides opportunities, the body has the opportunity to develop, we actually wade through a lot of muddy waters, stepped on a lot of pits, and now we have a certain growth in this industry, in the yield to reach the customer without feeling the premise, our opportunity is coming.” Wang Xiangbin pointed out.

EG1033AA01 In addition, Wang Xiangbin stressed that domestic manufacturers also have local market advantages.

“Under the premise of the Chinese market scenario, the ‘four big families’ may be more difficult than domestic manufacturers.” In their industry, the market space for the development of the ‘four big families’ is in China, but the Chinese market needs to give domestic manufacturers the opportunity to grow, and the cost of the’ four big families’ is too high, so to make their technology more cost-effective is a contradiction for the ‘four big families’.” Wang Xiangbin said.

Regarding the competition and opportunities between domestic brands and foreign brands in the future, Wang Xiangbin believes that the competition opportunities between the two will be relatively equal, and the opportunities for domestic robots are very large.

“Although there is still a gap between domestic manufacturers and overseas heads in technology, the products can meet the market requirements and the price is favorable, coupled with the rapid response of Chinese enterprises and the service ability around the world, so it has a certain advantage in the international community, and is expected to quickly realize domestic substitution.” Wang Xiangbin summed it up.

Humanoid robots may be comparable to cars in the future

According to the International Federation of Robotics, the size of the global industrial robot market is expected to grow by 175% by 2025, from $12.3 billion in 2016 to about $33.8 billion.

Wang Xiangbin believes that the opportunities of industrial robots come from three aspects, including new downstream application scenarios of industrial robots to bring new opportunities, such as automobile manufacturing, 3C electronics, food processing, pharmaceutical manufacturing and other fields; At the same time, new technologies enable new opportunities, with AI-related technologies to promote intelligent improvement, the future of industrial robots toward intelligent, refined, flexible direction; Third, the short board is the space, under the dual efforts of the government and enterprises, 7.5KW-22KW high power products are expected to complete the short board.

EG1033AA01 As for what favorable conditions the empowerment of AI technology will bring to the future of industrial robots, Wang Xiangbin believes that the first comes from the reduction of operating costs.

According to ABI Research, organizations that embrace new IIoT (Industrial Internet of Things) technologies, such as AI-integrated robots, will save 9% in operating costs.

“There is no doubt that AI empowerment can improve productivity and quality.” Wang Xiangbin said that advances in AI technology have made robot movements more precise and accurate, which, when combined with advanced machine vision capabilities, can maximize the throughput and consistency of devices.

Wang Xiangbin stressed that after the introduction of AI, industrial robots will be more intelligent, is expected to have self-learning, self-error correction ability, to solve the current programming difficulties of industrial robots, human-computer interaction complex problems, the future factory is expected to become a reality.
