As a manufacturing automation companies, with the introduction of the concept of industry 4.0 and the launch of the made in China 2025 plan, China's economy has entered a new normal of development. Structural adjustment, transformation and upgrading, quality and efficiency improvement have become new development strategies. Accelerating the development of the robot industry and promoting the integrated application of robots have become an important way to realize the new strategy. After years of rapid development, China has a relatively solid foundation for the development and application of robotics technology and industry. Application pulling is the biggest advantage of China's robot integration and development. In addition, China has the largest manufacturing industry with the largest number of categories, which provides a broad application field for the application of robots, and also provides a sustained development momentum for the development of the robot industry.
According to the International Federation of Robotics (IFR), the use of industrial robots in China is expected to exceed 428000 by 2017. "Enterprises will have to increase investment in robots to improve production efficiency and product quality. At present, the development of the robot industry is driven by the automobile industry, but in the next 2-3 years, the electronic industry will be the driving force."
The application of robots in the field of 3C will become the second largest industry for the integrated application of industrial robots after automobiles
The automobile industry has always been the industry that uses the most industrial robots. From a global perspective, the sales volume of industrial robots in the automobile industry accounts for about 45%, while the sales volume of industrial robots in the electronic and electrical industry accounts for only about 20%. 60% of domestic industrial robots are also applied in the automobile manufacturing industry. The robot density of the automobile industry has reached 305 sets / 10000 sets, far higher than the average level of 36 sets / 10000 people abroad. It has reached the automation level of the manufacturing industry in developed countries, and there is limited room for improvement in the future.
In addition to the automobile industry, the change of market competition promotes the innovation of 3C home appliance manufacturers' production efficiency. Agile manufacturing, flexible manufacturing and lean manufacturing lead the development direction of 3C home appliance manufacturing enterprises, and the characteristics of industrial robot integration are catering to this manufacturing trend. High speed, high flexibility and high precision requests help 3C home appliance manufacturers to respond more quickly to the change of products in the market, obtain more efficient production manufacturing capabilities and higher-quality product quality control.
There are a large number of components of 3C products (for example, the mobile phone includes large components such as touch screen, display panel, main board PCB, battery, middle board, back cover and other small components such as camera, structural parts) which are basically non-standard products with small volume and high absolute accuracy requirements. But the related parts manufacturing technology and the whole machine assembly technology (such as mobile phone shell, glass, cover plate, etc.), process and equipment are quite mature. The processing content is highly repetitive, the labor intensity is high, in line with the characteristics of automatic transformation.
In 3C manufacturing industry, the best industrial robot can maximize the sustainable productivity in the environment of high temperature, dust, corrosion, humidity, etc., which may endanger human health and realize continuous use.
