Shihe Technology adopts the operation method of ultra-ultra-high pressure water jet combined with disc recovery to collect the hazardous waste mud formed by rust removal through vacuum collector, and then carry out solid-liquid separation and gravity separation. After several times of filtration, water resources are recycled, which greatly improves the environmental protection and cleaning standards of the enterprise.
In addition to firefighting robots and rust removal robots, intelligent drainage robots have also attracted a lot of attention.
According to the introduction, the intelligent drainage robot is driven by amphibious chassis, all-terrain tire, integrated with large flow axial flow pump, hydraulic power unit, hydraulic pipeline system, remote control system, can directly drag the water, into the need to drain the water area, the water is discharged to as far as 300 meters away. It realizes the purpose that the rescue personnel do not need to wade into the water to carry the rescue equipment, greatly improves the safety factor of the rescue personnel, and reduces the labor intensity of the rescue personnel.
Industrial robots make the future
Whether it is aerospace, high-speed rail, automobile, or industrial equipment manufacturing, welding is a very important process. At the show, a welding robot is flying up and down robotic arms instead of workers.
According to reports, compared with manual welding, welding robot welding appearance smooth and stable, can be said to have reached the level of the process, and they will not ask for leave, high efficiency. The working efficiency of a welding robot can reach the speed of 3 or 4 ordinary welders, and the welding vehicle can be a few tens of seconds, both radian and welding quality can be considered to be perfect in the ideal state, and under the unified instruction, more than a dozen machines can be managed by a person.
In addition to the welding robot, the expo, Shenyang Siasong Robot Automation Co., Ltd. released a new "Star" industrial cleaning robot. According to the exhibitors, the robot designed for industrial cleaning scenario development, effectively solve the traditional industrial cleaning work faced by the intensity of labor, the low degree of intelligence, and the real-time performance, influence the production efficiency, such as the industry problems, especially for intelligent unmanned factory workshop, IC equipment, new energy battery production workshop and warehouse, etc.
Behind this product is the cross fusion of mobile robot control technology, navigation technology and security sensing technology accumulated by Siasun for more than 30 years.
On the other side of the booth, I saw a robot while cleaning the ground from the top of the fuselage spraying "white smoke", originally this is by Guangzhou Aike robot Co., LTD. Launched by the disinfection of the air purification dust robot. Through ultrasonic atomization, the robot has the functions of high-precision autonomous positioning and navigation, autonomous disinfection, autonomous elevator riding, dust cleaning and so on. "The spray tube on the upper end of the machine can also realize multi-end spraying, with camera detection, 360-degree radar monitoring function, the body of the anti-crash design, and can be cleaned 5 cm along the edge, endurance of 6 to 8 hours, can fully meet the use of large-scale scenes." "Said the exhibitor.
At the exhibition site, the robots in the smart bin of Meituan's booth attracted a large number of visitors.
After scanning the bar code of each item, the delivery personnel put it into the robot. The 3D sorting robot will put the item into the corresponding order basket according to the bar code. According to the relevant staff, the robot plays an important role in order picking, e-commerce sorting, return sorting, with high efficiency and accuracy, space saving, fast deployment and other characteristics.
This robot conference is the first time to display 3D sorting robot, AMR robot (autonomous mobile robot), intelligent distribution station and other products.
Agricultural robots help farmers with intelligence
The "Robot + Agriculture" zone shows field operation robots, forest fruit operation robots, facility agriculture operation robots, livestock and poultry breeding robots, etc. Among them, vaccine-injecting robots, picking robots and intelligent rice transplanters are dazzling.
In the agricultural robotics section, a piglet runs around the booth, followed by an "iron needle" aimed at its hip, ready to strike. This is a vaccine-injecting robot that uses a robotic arm to vaccinate livestock.
Beijing spirit, robot technology co., LTD. Relevant controller introduces, the pig to a relatively narrow them in, with the help of a camera at the end of visual follow technology, automatic induction identification injection point, at the same time, according to the mechanical arm at the end of the 6 d force sensor and the mechanical arm follow own joint force sensor, ensure the needle pig skin contact surface at the same time, don't too hard, The pigs were then inoculated with high-pressure gas in a short period of time.
In the Smart picking exhibition area, a delicate small car coupled with a flexible mechanical arm to form an automatic picking robot. The robot moves steadily forward, reaching out its claws to pick up the hanging kiwi fruit, and then drops it into a basket through a conveyor tube.
According to staff, grip is rubber material, to ensure that no damage when picking fruit, at the same time the use of multiple sensors on crops and the surrounding environment perception and analysis, it can be finished in 0.2 seconds within one square metre of fruit recognition, recovery more than 80%, can achieve high speed data real-time transmission, seamless drive mechanical arm, Can be widely used in a variety of fruit and vegetable picking needs.
Before the intelligent rice transplanter, Beijing Bochuang linkage Technology Co., LTD. Market leader introduced that the intelligent rice transplanter can replace the manual driver for speed control, direction control, seedling control and other actions. Different from the traditional agricultural machinery, the vehicle has the advantages of accurate operation and simple operation. At the same time, the transplanting of rice seedlings is orderly and the depth is consistent, which is conducive to field management, improve the operation efficiency and land utilization rate, and reduce the waste of agricultural materials and repeated operations.
The main technical chain of agricultural robot is composed of agricultural machinery networking, automatic driving and intelligent control system of agricultural machinery. In the future, autonomous driving technology will enable workers to operate 24/7 and manage their jobs from their computers or mobile phones.
