Intelligent logistics robots

China's logistics industry is striving to shift from labor-intensive to technology-intensive, from the traditional model to the modernization and intelligence upgrade, accompanied by the application and popularization of various advanced technologies and equipment. At present, intelligent robots with the functions of handling, stacking, and sorting have become a hot spot in the logistics industry. Many people believe that under the influence of multiple factors, the fierce and intelligent robot has a vast application space, and it will even have a profound impact on the logistics operation model and the entire logistics system.

Robots are pouring into warehouses. "In the past five or even ten years, Chinese robots have mushroomed. There are two main reasons behind this: First, China's demographic dividend has disappeared in the past five years, and second, high quality and high added value. “The demand.” Deng Jianyi, Dematic's China program planning director, said that with the rapid development of e-commerce, logistics business volume has increased dramatically, and land and labor costs have risen rapidly. Intelligent logistics equipment has saved storage space and increased The advantages of logistics efficiency and other aspects have become increasingly prominent, and are therefore increasingly favored by companies, of which the robot is a typical representative.

On the whole, the robots currently widely used in warehouses are mainly based on robots that carry the functions of handling, palletizing, and sorting.

The application time of AGV robot AGV in foreign countries is relatively early. Currently, it has been widely used in the fields of manufacturing, ports, and docks. In China, some companies are gradually paying attention to and applying AGV to accomplish some simple handling tasks. As a flexible and intelligent logistics handling robot, Amazon's Kiva robot is currently the most representative, and domestic companies have also launched their own products. The AGV robot has a higher application in China's auto automobile manufacturing industry (mainly component manufacturing), followed by applications in the electric power, tobacco, dairy products, and beverage industries. It can be said that the AGV robot is the highest level of automation in logistics equipment, and it is the most flexible link in the logistics automation system, and it almost includes all the logistics equipment technologies.

Palletizing robots Palletizing robots mainly include Cartesian robots, articulated robots, and polar robots. Palletizing robots can be adapted to palletizing, bagging, canning, boxing, and bottled packaging. . In terms of efficiency, palletizing robots can not only bear high load, but also have higher speed and quality than manual ones. From the point of view of accuracy, each palletizing robot has an independent control system, which greatly guarantees the accuracy of operations and can fully meet the positioning requirements of logistics palletizing operations. In terms of stability, the most advanced palletizing robots have Reaching the 5-axis and 6-axis, through corresponding scientific and rational rigid mechanical body design, the robot body can not only adapt to high load-bearing, high-frequency palletizing operations, but also can adapt to the cumbersome sorting and high-flexibility operation requirements.

Sorting robots are selected by robots for picking. If there are many varieties and shapes, robots need to have an image recognition system and multi-functional robots. Every time the robot arrives at an item tray, it can look at the image recognition system. To the shape of the item, grab it with the corresponding robot and place it on the matching tray. At present, the picking and sorting robot is not widely used in warehousing logistics, but it has a wide application space.

Robots affect the logistics process The most talked about "intelligent robot" is developed from industrial robots, and China has developed the first generation of industrial robots as early as 30 years. Only through the development and reform, today's intelligent robots have been very different.

In fact, the development of robots used in logistics can be roughly divided into three generations. The first generation of logistics robots is mainly based on conveyor belts and related machinery. It is a prototype for robots, and it changes from manual to automatic. The second-generation robots mainly use automatic guided vehicles (AGVs) as their representative devices. They can carry out functions such as carrying them through autonomously moving cars. The representative is the Amazon Kiva robot. This type of robot relies on the AGV technology, but it still needs manual selection. The efficiency of cargo operations still needs to be improved. On the basis of the second generation, the third-generation robots have added artificial robots, robotic arms, vision systems, and intelligent systems to provide more friendly human-computer interaction interfaces, and are more compatible with existing logistics management systems, and have higher Implementation efficiency and accuracy. For example, robotic products such as Fetch&Freight have realized the transition from automation to intelligentization. They consist of mobile bodies, robot arms, and manipulators. They have a high degree of autonomy and can perform various functions such as object recognition, grabbing, sorting, and transportation. .

The reason why "smart robots" are called "intelligence" is not only robots with general programming capabilities and operating functions, but because they have a fairly well-developed "brains" that use central processors and sensors for navigation and positioning, and path planning. ,intelligent control. Most experts believe that an intelligent robot must have at least three elements: one is a sensory element that is used to recognize the state of the surrounding environment; the other is an element of movement that responds to the outside world; and the third is to think about the element and obtain it based on the sensory element. Information, think about what kind of action to take.

The emergence of intelligent robots will certainly change the traditional logistics operation mode, including: reducing the time from order to delivery. Robots will make it easier to transfer orders from production facilities to sorting robots to pallets to packaging, size pricing to loading docks to containers; reduce errors and the need for reverse logistics; robots record large amounts of data and review them with precision. The ability of data to search for mistakes will undoubtedly reduce the occurrence of order information errors in the logistics process, and the demand for reverse logistics will be reduced; reducing the labor burden, the use of robots will reduce the manual labors taken by employees, such as long-term walking , handling and handling of overweight products, etc. In addition, robots do not need food and water, can work around the clock, and can connect with other devices through the Internet, which will have a major impact on the traditional logistics model.

The enterprises of all parties are contending for innovation Although China’s intelligent robot market is still in its infancy, market participants clearly have seen potential opportunities. In 2016, all parties and companies are stepping up product development and promotion, including Dematic International companies such as Swisslog also include leading domestic companies such as Xinsong and the development of mechatronics, as well as emerging enterprises such as fast-growing and far-energy that have developed rapidly in recent years.

As a leading company in the domestic robotics industry, Xinsong Robot Automation Co., Ltd., at the 2016 China International Robot Exhibition held in July, brought a full line of new product appearances, including breaking the foreign monopoly of domestically-adopted heavy-duty composite robots.

With the growing scale of the compound robot market, medium- and heavy-duty compound robots have also become new directions for the market. At present, Xinsong's mobile robots have a load capacity of 80 tons and industrial robots have a load capacity of 500 kg. Based on its R&D advantages in the heavy-duty field, Xinsong pioneered the introduction of heavy-duty composite robots using Mattenham wheels. Its body can handle up to 2 tons and the robot can reach 50 kilograms. The heavy-duty composite robot has already achieved localization in the control system, the movement unit, and the handling unit, and can achieve full-scale and flexible operation. The successful development of heavy-duty composite robots was the first in China, and it was also the first to be introduced in the international community, marking a new level for domestic robots.

In 2016, some companies are also entering this field across borders. For example, on May 25, Midea Group issued an announcement that the company plans to purchase KUKA Group’s shares in cash through a wholly-owned subsidiary MECCA, hoping to jointly develop Robot Blue Ocean. What is more noteworthy is that on September 1st, the rookie network also officially released an end-distribution robot named “G-G”. It is about 1 meter tall and can carry about 10 to 20 parcels. After receiving instructions, it can automatically Plan the optimal delivery path and send the item to the designated location. According to the person in charge of the Cainiao Network, the small G's capabilities are based on a number of key technologies such as autonomous sensing, smart identification, and motion planning. With the electric drive method, the cost of a single delivery is almost negligible compared with manual labor, while ensuring the environment. Zero pollution; Compared with drones, the small G has a large payload, high cruising range, and is also more secure and reliable.

In fact, the rookie network launch of the robot is not a whim. It is understood that Cainiao Network established the “ET Logistics Laboratory” at the end of 2015. Its members include a group of doctors from top universities and research institutes in the world. Its goal is to develop logistics frontier technology products and pursue logistics production methods that are consistent with future technological development. At present, breakthroughs have been made in various products such as terminal delivery robots, complex picking robots in warehouses, and unmanned delivery machines.

We can foresee that the growing popularity and rapid development of intelligent robots will inevitably trigger a revolution in the intelligentization of warehousing logistics, and even an intelligent revolution in the entire logistics industry, manufacturing industry, production, and life. However, for current domestic enterprises, competition at the low-end product level should be avoided, and more efforts must be devoted to the research and development of intelligent robot products.

Towards the mid-to-high-end development in the future Earlier this year, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology had conducted a survey on the situation of the robotics industry in the country, and preliminary statistics on more than 800 enterprises involving robot production and integrated applications in China, of which more than 200 are robotic ontologies manufacturing enterprises, but large Some companies mainly focus on assembly and processing. The products are mainly concentrated on three-axis and four-axis middle and low-end robots. Therefore, in terms of industrial robots, the scale and industrialization of industrial robots with six-axes and above will be the top priority in the future.

In terms of industrial robots, China has basically mastered a number of key technologies in the design, manufacturing, and application processes, and developed industrial robots such as arc welding, spot welding, palletizing, assembly, handling, and painting. However, on the whole, there is still a certain gap between China's robotic products and foreign advanced level, among which industrial robots are relatively backward in terms of speed, load, accuracy, and weight ratio, and the key technologies such as autonomous decision-making, brain-machine interface and intellisense are in service robots. The frontier technology research is still relatively backward, with many conceptual products and few industrial products.

With the overall advancement of manufacturing intelligence, the range of work that can be accomplished by traditional robots cannot adapt to new manufacturing methods and business models. Next-generation robots will play a more important role in digital workshops and smart factories. Future application space Will be more extensive. In the field of next-generation robots, research is focused on cutting-edge technologies such as artificial intelligence, deep learning of robots, and breakthroughs in core technologies such as general robot control software platforms, human-machine coexistence, security control, high integration integration of joints, dexterous hands, etc. to achieve intelligent robot innovation application.

The key components are the basis for the development of the robot industry and are the key to the quality and performance of robots. For a long time, the R&D and manufacturing capabilities of key parts and components of robots in our country are still relatively weak, the technology level is low, and the performance and quality are not high. This has become a shortcoming that has always restricted the development of China's robot industry. Although some companies have already realized the localization of some key components, the performance stability and quality reliability of mass production still need to be improved. If this problem cannot be solved, the overall quality and performance of domestic robots will be hindered. This will affect the competitiveness of the product market and make it difficult for the industry to develop sustainably and healthily.

In response to the development status of the domestic robot industry, in March this year, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the National Development and Reform Commission, and the Ministry of Finance jointly issued the "Robot Industry Development Plan (2016-2020)", pointing out that the development of the robot industry needs to promote major landmarks. Product breakthroughs. Among them, "in the field of industrial robots, focusing on intelligent production, intelligent logistics, to overcome the key technologies of industrial robots, improve operability and maintainability, focusing on the development of arc welding robots, vacuum (clean) robots, fully autonomous programming intelligent industrial robots, people Robots, dual-arm robots, heavy-duty AGVs and other six iconic industrial robots have guided China’s industrial robots to high-end development.” We can predict that the application of intelligent robots in the logistics industry will enter into sustained and stable development in the next five years. The new era.
