China's robotics technology faces four short boards

The "Government Work Report" of the Third Session of the Twelfth National People's Congress put forward the implementation of "Made in China 2025" to speed up the transition from a manufacturing country to a manufacturing powerhouse, and to promote the industrial structure to the mid-to-high end. Liu Chongjiu, deputy general manager of China Automotive Industry Engineering Co., Ltd. stated that if China wants to become a powerful manufacturing country in the world, it must make breakthroughs in information technology, intelligence, automation, and green manufacturing, among which the development and application of robots is crucial. At present, China's development of robotics technology is facing four major shortcomings. It is necessary to strengthen the R&D of robotics technology and prevent the recurrence of the “hollow core technology”.

Robotics integrates multidisciplinary knowledge such as mechanics, mechanics, electronics, biology, cybernetics, computer, artificial intelligence, and systems engineering. Its R&D, manufacturing, and application are important for measuring a country's technological innovation and high-end manufacturing levels. Sign. At present, developed countries regard industrial robots as the entry point and growth point for the "third industrial revolution." The developed countries and regions such as the United States, Germany, Japan, and the European Union have formulated strategic plans and technical routes for the development of robots.

“At present, China is the world’s largest robot market, but the development of autonomous robot technology and the development of industrialization are not optimistic.” Liu Chongxi said that there is a big gap between our country’s robotics technology and industrialization compared with developed countries. First, the core technology of robots is behind the developed countries. The country is 20-30 years old. Second, the R&D capability of key components is insufficient. 80%-90% of the core components need to be imported. Third, robot development and production companies are small in scale, lacking powerful large-scale robot development and production teams; The market share of robots is low, and foreign-branded industrial robots account for over 90% of the Chinese market. "As time goes on, China's robotics industry will once again lose its development opportunities. The robotics industry will be monopolized by foreign companies, and 'Made in China 2025' will repeat the hollowing out of core technology," said Liu Chongxi.

"The development of our country's robotics industry needs to raise the level of robots, and it must occupy as many markets as possible." Liu Chongxi proposed to strengthen the leadership of the robotization industrial development organization, develop the overall planning and roadmap for the robot industry and technology, and organize enterprises to develop robots. Industrialization work, increasing investment in industrialization, realizing the localization of key parts and components, and system integration applications, cultivating leading enterprises and creating strong productivity; strengthening international cooperation while independently researching and developing, integrating international resources to develop autonomous robotics technology, and attracting robot research and development at home and abroad Institutions and enterprises are developing in China. In terms of application, it is necessary to increase the application and promotion of domestic robots, formulate policies to encourage the adoption of domestic robot equipment, support the development of the domestically produced autonomous robot industry, and encourage domestic robots to occupy larger markets.
