2023 World Robot Conference into “four platforms”

Wang Hong, deputy director of the first Department of equipment Industry of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, said that promoting the intelligent development of the robot industry is not only an important component of the modern industrial system, but also a booster to accelerate the modernization process of various industries. According to the International Federation of Robotics, the global installed capacity of industrial robots in 2022 is 531,000 units, and China’s installed capacity exceeds 50% of the global total, ranking first in the world for nine consecutive years. The toughness of China’s robot industry is stable and good. Last year, the operating income of China’s robot industry exceeded 170 billion yuan, the output of industrial robots was 443,000 sets, and the output of service robots reached 6.458 million sets. In the first half of this year, China’s robot industry as a whole maintained a stable growth trend, industrial robot production reached 222,000 sets, an increase of 5.4%; The output of service robots reached 3.53 million sets, an increase of 9.6%. However, it is also necessary to see that the development of China’s robot industry is still faced with basic deficiencies, imperfect high-end product performance, and application potential has not been fully released.

Xu Guanghong, deputy minister of the Science and Technology Innovation Department of the China Association for Science and Technology, said that this year, together with all parties, the 2023 World Robot Conference will be built into “four platforms”, that is, an academic platform that serves the majority of scientific and technological workers to exchange the world’s scientific and technological frontiers and development trends, and a scientific and innovation platform that displays robot scientific and technological achievements and industrial innovation. It is a popular science platform for disseminating scientific and technological knowledge and innovative spirit, and an international exchange platform for advocating openness, trust and cooperation.

For the first time, the museum created 10 application scene plates of “robot +”

The 2023 World Robot Expo will also be held at the same time. The Expo highlighted the improvement of key core technology innovation capabilities and the expansion of application scenarios, with a total exhibition area of 45,000 square meters, an increase of 5,000 square meters over last year. More than 140 domestic and foreign robot companies brought nearly 600 exhibits to the exhibition, and 40 companies participated in the exhibition for the first time.

Compared with previous exhibitions, the exhibition forms of this Expo are more abundant, product categories are more diverse, and application scenarios are more extensive.

Focusing on the two major themes of innovation drive and application traction, this Expo has created 10 application scenarios of “robot +” for the first time, showing new scenarios, new models and new formats of robot application, promoting the depth and breadth of robot application, and bringing a full sense of presence to the audience.

The deepening of the application of robots in the manufacturing industry continues to inject strong momentum into the transformation of “manufacturing” to “intelligent manufacturing”. In the “Robot +” manufacturing section of the Expo, the KUka KR FORTEC-2 ultra series, which can accurately and quickly handle heavy and large components with high moment of inertia, will be exhibited in China for the first time. Yaskawa Shougang will also display a new energy battery box robot intelligent production line that “can realize virtual and real linkage production visual management and robot health diagnosis and preventive maintenance”, and more Efte ARC ARC welding robots that can adapt to a variety of complex welding application environments, and Siasun SR210D industrial robots that are known for high reliability and excellent cost performance will be displayed.
