Promote the robot industry to seize the high point of intelligent manufacturing

      General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out in the speeches of the academicians' congress that the "robot revolution" is expected to be a starting point and an important growth point for the "Third Industrial Revolution", which will affect the global manufacturing industry. In recent years, the world's major economies have developed the robot industry as a national strategy, and as an important means to maintain and regain the competitive advantage of manufacturing. "Made in China 2025" proposed to speed up the new generation of information technology and manufacturing depth of the integration of the main line to promote intelligent manufacturing as the main direction to promote the manufacturing industry digital network intelligent. As a key support for the transformation of the manufacturing sector intelligent equipment, industrial robots in China is showing explosive growth. However, the core technology of industrial robots in China has not been fundamentally changed, and the domestic industrial robot products are concentrated in the low-end applications. The robot industry has not yet developed, produced, manufactured, sold, integrated, Refined industrial chain, industrial robot enterprise scale is generally small, low degree of industrialization, the overall competitiveness is not strong, around the development of the robot industry there is a low level of duplication of the hidden dangers. This report examines the status and problems of the domestic industrial robot industry in detail, and puts forward some suggestions on how to solve the problem, which is of great practical significance to the development of domestic related industries.

      In the future, the Chinese robot industry to achieve rapid and healthy sustainable development, we must first plan the next generation of robot technology development blueprint, industrial development plan to ensure that China's robot industry in the right direction of sustainable development. Recently, the Ministry of Industry, Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Finance has jointly issued the "robot industry development plan (2016 - 2020)". Planning the implementation of China's robot industry will provide better opportunities for development. Second, we should fully consider the characteristics of China's manufacturing industry, select the key areas to demonstrate the application as a breakthrough, to promote the industrialization of industrial robots and industrialization of large-scale, to achieve the localization of key components, open up industrial robot industry chain. Once again, we must strive to enhance the independent innovation capability of enterprises, break through the new materials, new perception, intelligent control and other cutting-edge technology and key technologies to speed up a new generation of industrial robot technology research and development and prototype production, to seize the new generation of industrial robots international high ground.
