At the high-tech fair that ended last month, a professor from Beihang University released a series of self-developed robotic products and received extensive attention. The two giants of the robot ecosystem are doing chip Intel and doing robot supply chain. Hard egg, began to cooperate with him.

He is called Wei Hongxing and is the "first person to eat crabs" in domestic cooperative robots. As early as 2015, he released China's first collaborative robot product, breaking the monopoly of the international industrial robot giant on the market. This year he launched new products.

Recently, Mr. Wei Hongxing received an exclusive interview with Guangzhou Daily's all-media reporter and told about his own story of eating crabs.

Introduced the first domestic collaborative robot two years ago

Traditional industrial robots are generally used in high-end manufacturing industries. They are often huge in size, long in installation and scheduling applications, and expensive. As a second-generation industrial robot, collaborative robots inherit the advantages of the first-generation robots and are equipped with vision and touch. Sensors are more portable, safer, and easier to program, so they are more suitable for use in various fields.

In recent years, the concepts and products of collaborative robots have escalated. This market was originally monopolized by four major international industrial robot manufacturers (ABB, KUKA, etc.), but for China's manufacturing industry, the hidden danger of this monopoly is self-evident. . As a result, domestically-developed cooperative robots began to appear, and the earliest domestically-manufactured collaborative robots were Beifang University professor Wei Hongxing’s “AUBO-i5” in 2015. This robot achieved national production of key components and became the first domestic CE certificate to pass the European Union. , North American NRTL certified collaborative robots, products access to the international market access permit. Wei Hongxing is therefore called the "first person to eat crabs" of domestic collaborative robots. In the past two years, there have been more and more companies that are cooperating robots in China, and the market has begun to diversify.

Collaborative robots, referred to as cobots or co-robots, are robots that can interact with humans in a common workspace.

Self-made robot can grasp future safety

Why do collaborative robots? Wei Hongxing said that China's manufacturing industry is now facing the problem of increasing manpower after the demographic dividend gradually disappears. To solve this problem, we need to use robots instead of people.

In addition, Wei Hongxing also said: “Now China is doing intelligent manufacturing upgrades and transformations, but now the vast majority of factories in the world use robots abroad. Once an emergency occurs one day, these robots may get out of control because robots are If there is a backdoor, it will be re-controlled, which is very dangerous for us. So we need to be autonomous and controllable domestically-made robots. All robotic system software is autonomous and controllable so that we can grasp future safety."

Wei Hongxing told reporters that after the release of AUBO-i5 in November 2015, they developed a series of products such as i3, i7, i10, etc., and i5 also began mass production. Currently, it can produce 300 per month. Taiwan around. This year's Hi-Tech Fair, he released new products, and also started cooperation with two giants in the robot ecosystem, Intel and Hardcore, to focus on polishing the core products.

His goal is to be the most cost-effective collaborative robot in the world. He said that the cost performance, first of all, is to meet the requirements of performance, speed and accuracy, including safety requirements, under this premise price has advantages, so that the cost of a robot is lower than the cost of an ordinary worker. "Under this premise, I believe that robots will enter the factory on a large scale to solve the current shortage of labor."

For the future, Wei Hongxing said, “Our current idea for robots is to develop it as a product like a smartphone. There are professional developers and professional partners, like visual tools, various partners can Use our interface to develop APPs and build their own applications. We think this is the direction of future industrial robots."

Wei Hongxing, male, born in 1974, associate professor, doctor of engineering, master tutor, has been teaching at Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics. The "AUBO-i5" released in 2015 became the first domestic cooperative robot to pass the EU CE certification and the North American NRTL certification. Therefore, it was dubbed as the first person to eat crabs.

Floating Ball Level Controller

The floating ball liquid level controller is composed of floating ball, plug rod, etc. It is installed on the top of the container through the connecting flange, and the floating ball floats on the liquid level according to the principle of equal volume of liquid. When the liquid level of the container changes, the floating ball also moves up and down. Due to the magnetic effect, the dry spring of the floating ball liquid level controller is magnetically attracted to change the liquid level position into an electrical signal, and the actual position of the liquid is digitally displayed through the display instrument, Floating ball liquid level controller to achieve remote detection and control of liquid level.
The floating ball liquid level controller is designed according to Archimedes' buoyancy principle. When the liquid level of the container changes, the floating ball also moves up and down. Due to the magnetic effect, the dry reed of the floating ball liquid level controller is magnetically attracted, so that the resistance in the sensor changes linearly, and then the converter converts the change of the resistance value into 4mA ~ 20mA standard DC signal output, Realize the remote detection and control of liquid level.
