As the pace of national smart grid construction continues to accelerate, the market demand for power inspection robots is increasingly strong. North China Industrial Control entered the “smart grid” and independently created an embedded computer product solution to support the application of power inspection robots.

IC755CSS15CDA Power inspection robot into the fast track of development

Power inspection robot is an advanced equipment used to assist or replace manual, automatic and intelligent inspection of substations, transformers, generators and other equipment in the power system, so as to reduce the burden of power operation and maintenance personnel, improve the inspection efficiency, and ensure more safe and stable operation of the power system. With the continuous construction and development of the national grid, the traditional human operation and maintenance mode is increasingly difficult in the face of the operation and maintenance management of the huge power system, and the intelligent and automated upgrade of the power system has become a trend, and the power inspection robot industry has ushered in the golden period of development.

At present, power inspection robots have been put into application in substations and distribution stations in many regions of China. As an important equipment for the development and realization of intelligent and automated power grid, it is controlled by a computer system and consists of a robot body and a number of high-definition network cameras, environmental sensors, communication components and detection components equipped as needed. Combined with the software system, the IC755CSS15CDA operation status of the tested object is monitored in real time through the autonomous movement in different fields such as indoor, outdoor and tunnel. Complete the tasks of data acquisition, data automatic analysis, graphic processing and abnormal alarm, and provide support for power system operation and maintenance.

Compared with traditional manual inspection, the advantage of power inspection robots is that they can complete autonomous, diverse and complex tasks more efficiently. However, the robot’s multi-function module integration, big data analysis and other AI functional applications and 7*24 efficient and stable operation must have more expandable, more professional and reliable computer hardware to provide it with basic support. In view of this, North China Industrial Control has launched an embedded computer product solution to support the application of power inspection robots.
