Chapter 1623

Yes, China Tengfei does have the ability to develop industrial robots. After all, China Tengfei has reached the world-class level in the fields of system control and precision machinery. Coupled with a relatively complete industrial chain, industrial robots are really not difficult for China Tengfei.

The key question is whether the things made can be recognized in the market and make money. After all, the cost of some key parts is ridiculously high.

For example, for the harmonic reducer used in nb-36p industrial robot, the main material is silicon carbide applied to helicopter reducer, and the internal wear-resistant parts are made of nickel base alloy applied to aeroengine. In order to reduce the total amount of human structure of nb-36p industrial robot and make its action more flexible, The shell and base are made of carbon fiber and titanium alloy.

Even the supporting grippers and cutting tools are high-strength machining tools made of high-strength wear-resistant ceramic composites.

This set does not count the huge expenses incurred by the execution software and advanced algorithm architecture used internally for aviation and aerospace control systems, as well as the convenience brought by accessing China's take-off industrial big data.

The cost and processing cost of various advanced materials are astronomical.

Because of this, products like nb-36p industrial robots can't be made into low-end products in China. If these materials are made into low-end products alone, it's a monster.

So what China took off at the beginning was the set of space manipulator on NASA's space shuttle, because only such high-end goods are worth so many valuable materials.

Moreover, the revised manned space project in China has included the space station, and as the most important part of the space station, the flexible space manipulator is naturally indispensable.

The "Canada" type 2 space manipulator used on the international space station has proved this well, because the space station with this kind of manipulator not only has good self-maintenance ability, but also has a safer and more efficient acceptance means in the face of spacecraft such as spacecraft docked with itself.

Of course, it's OK to occasionally exclude "space garbage" and catch a "scrapped satellite". In a word, this thing is equal to its own tentacle for the space station, which can swing freely in outer space.

In addition to the space station, this kind of space manipulator is also an indispensable equipment for manned landing on the moon and even Mars in the future. Because of this, the development of this kind of space manipulator has great practical significance for domestic manned spaceflight and even future deep space exploration.

Therefore, NASA carried out the feasibility assessment of such equipment as early as 2005, and the results are very unsatisfactory.

The space robot is essentially an upgraded version of an industrial robot. After all, an industrial robot is simply a robot arm, but the industrial robot sounds taller and more scientific and technological. In fact, the difference is not big on the basis.

But the problem was that at that time, the domestic industrial robot industry was not even budding. There were start-ups in several related aspects, but at most, it was to set up a DIY or help enterprises importing foreign brands do some cracking business of control software. On the whole, it lingered in the gray area of darkness.

The main reason for this is the lack of market environment for industrial robots in China.

Not to mention anything else, the number of industrial robots in China accounts for 87.25% of all industrial robots in China.

In other words, the total number of nearly 10000 industrial robots taken off in China is less than 3000.

At least, there is no other reason for this. Manpower is too cheap.

According to the labor cost at that time, an imported industrial robot can hire three teams of workers, all of which are boring repetitive work. The output of the three teams in 7 * 24 hours is not worse than that of industrial robots, but higher.

The most important thing is that when you buy an industrial robot, you have to give it electricity, you have to give it oil, and you have to give it maintenance; And the workers? In addition to the meager salary and three meals a day, I don't care about anything. As long as I don't die in my own factory, there is no additional burden on the factory.

In this case, why buy those ancestral industrial robots? That's what you do with a broken head.

Therefore, China's take-off, which is equipped with a large number of industrial robots, has become an alternative in the eyes of the vast majority of domestic manufacturing related units, because it is obvious that Zhuang Jianye, the leader of China's take-off, belongs to the one with a broken head. It is difficult to find a toad with three legs in China, and there is no one with two legs in two days?

Why don't good people use the equipment with high cost and higher maintenance? So wasteful, isn't your head watt or something?

To tell the truth, Zhuang Jianye doesn't want to do so, but who can do so complicated with cheap manpower, but the problem is that aviation and aerospace manufacturing are different from other industrial categories and have high requirements for employees.

There are so many relevant professionals and skilled workers who graduate in one year in China, and most of them are targeted distribution. There are few left in China's take-off.

High end talents can be recruited with high salaries. What about a large number of ordinary skilled workers? You can't dig all with high salaries.

Of course, Zhuang Jianye has been advocating the expansion of university enrollment and the development of technical education in recent years, so as to fundamentally solve the problem of talent shortage. However, although the country has made great efforts to cultivate talents in recent years, it will take some time to see the effect.

In this long waiting period, will China's take-off not produce? Will the 10th and 20th projects lie dead waiting for talents and skilled workers to arrive?

Obviously, it is impossible. In that case, Zhuang Jianye can only find another way to replace the seriously deficient ordinary skilled workers with high-precision industrial robots and integrate them into his own aviation and aerospace production lines.

However, because of this, China Tengfei has always been the one with the least number of employees and the highest production efficiency among similar enterprises in China.

Behind this expensive investment is China's rising product quality and deep understanding of industrial robots.

In addition, China's take-off has accumulated many years of technology in outer space such as satellites, launch vehicles and hypersonic vehicles. After some feasibility research, the experts of manned space engineering finally suggested that China take-off should hand over the domestic space manipulator project to China.

The nb-36p industrial robot is a low-end space manipulator derived from this project
