From the products launched by the world robots in recent years, industrial robot technology is developing in an intelligent, modular and systematic way, playing an increasingly important role. The development trend is mainly: modularization and reconfigurability of structure; openness, PC and network of control technology; digitization and decentralization of servo drive technology; practical use of multi-sensor fusion technology; optimization of work environment design And the flexibility of the work and the networking and intelligence of the system. After the rapid adoption of industrial robot applications, there may be some market developments. 1. Promote industrial transformation and upgrading, impacting the labor market First of all, industrial robots will have a systemic impact on the transformation and upgrading of Chinese industries. First, the application of Chinese industrial robots is the result of changes in the factor endowment structure. While the economy continues to grow and capital continues to accumulate, labor supply is gradually decreasing, demographic dividends are gradually exhausted, and labor-management conflicts are escalating, and labor costs are rising rapidly, making China's factor endowment structure changing. In response to the deepening of capital, the use of industrial robots instead of labor has gradually met China's new comparative advantage. The use of industrial robots to improve labor productivity will effectively drive the transformation and upgrading of traditional industries. Second, the use of industrial robots promotes the development and upgrading of the pillar industry. The use of industrial robots has obvious industrial characteristics, and the density of industrial robots in different industries (Taiwan/10,000 workers) is very different. From the international experience, the most used industrial robots are the automotive industry, followed by the electrical and electronics industry. According to our research experience in the automotive industry, there are obvious differences between the production workshops of foreign brands and independent brands: most of the former processes are completed by complete sets of industrial robots, and only a few processes involve workers, and the density of robots is relatively high; A large number of production workers, industrial robots are used less, and robot density is very low. Industrial industrial robot density is positively correlated with production efficiency, product quality and performance, and is an important indicator of high-end industrialization. Therefore, increasing the density of applied industrial robots to improve the cost performance of manufactured products is an important way to improve the quality and competitiveness of the pillar industry. Third, the development of the industrial robot industry has driven China's industrial upgrading. The industrial robot industry itself is a high-end equipment manufacturing industry, and its own growth can promote the development of high-end equipment manufacturing. Therefore, the wide application of industrial robots will create market demand, which will drive the growth of its own industry and promote the upgrading of manufacturing in the direction of digitalization and intelligence. China's specific industrial structure will produce a suitable industrial robot demand structure, creating market opportunities for the development of the local industrial robot industry. Industrial robots are also typical complex products that integrate many advanced technologies and core components. Its development will help drive the breakthrough of many basic technologies and the improvement of system integration capabilities. Fourth, the development of intelligent industrial robots promotes the arrival and development of the third industrial revolution. The third industrial revolution is a revolution in manufacturing from automation to digitalization. Advanced manufacturing technologies will transform large-scale assembly lines and flexible manufacturing systems, reshape the competitive advantage between countries, the relationship between the secondary and tertiary industries, and the world economic geography. The mechanism of interest distribution among countries has far-reaching implications. Leading the third industrial revolution is the innovation and application of manufacturing technologies such as digital manufacturing, artificial intelligence, and industrial robots. Intelligent industrial robots are important carriers for digitalization, intelligence, and informationization in manufacturing. Second, the rapid development of robots will inevitably bring a strong impact on the Chinese labor market. First, the introduction of industrial robots on the production line has indeed replaced human labor, but it cannot be statically classified as “machine eatingâ€. From a historical perspective, the use of more and more efficient machines not only greatly unleashed productivity, but also increased the detour of production, resulting in a large number of new industries and correspondingly created new jobs. The same applies to industrial robots: while reducing the labor force of the production line, it also creates other labor requirements. Therefore, the reduction in labor demand and employment creation are on both sides of the same coin. As far as China is concerned, the introduction of industrial robots itself is an adaptive response of enterprises to the infinite supply of labor, and it does not necessarily cause serious unemployment. Second, it affects the employment structure. After the introduction of industrial robots, the manufacturing processes and management methods of the manufacturing industry will also be adaptively adjusted. The first-line low-skilled workers in manufacturing enterprises, even some skilled workers, will be replaced by industrial robots, and the technical positions for debugging, maintaining and controlling industrial robots will increase relatively. At the industrial level, with the high-end of the industry, especially the development of high-end manufacturing, the demand for knowledge workers will increase, and the number of employees in the production service industry will increase accordingly. In other words, the introduction of industrial robots will make the employment structure high-end. In the long run, smart industrial robots will also place higher demands on talents in the future. 2. Forced China's economic transformation China's export-oriented and labor-intensive economic development model has brought about rapid development over the past decade. However, the re-industrialization centered on smart manufacturing in Europe and the United States will have a huge impact on China's low-end manufacturing model centered on low-cost labor. Of course, if China can actively respond to the impact of the international market on manufacturing, the intelligent manufacturing model will force the structural transformation of China's economic development model and bring positive impact. The impact is as follows: first, accelerate the adjustment of industrial structure, promote the upgrading of manufacturing industry, and promote the development of the tertiary industry; second, promote the development of industrial clusters, and gradually eliminate a number of high energy consumption, high pollution, low efficiency. Small-scale enterprises; third, to promote the transformation of the economic development model, from the labor-intensive model to the informationization, technology and automation model. The use of robots will inevitably have a huge impact on China's labor-intensive enterprises. Although internationally, in addition to the United States, Japan, South Korea, Germany and other countries, the increase in the use of robots did not lead to an increase in unemployment, but from the history of industrialization in Europe and the United States, trade unions and other labor organizations Protecting workers' jobs has strongly opposed corporate mechanization and automation. In China, the manufacturing industry is still in a low-end mode dominated by labor-intensive use. In a certain sense, the use of robots is not a supplementary labor, but an alternative labor. In particular, labor costs have risen sharply in recent years, prompting some enterprises to use The direct purpose of the robot is to save labor costs. Therefore, it is necessary to be alert that while the government is vigorously supporting the development of the robot industry, it is also necessary to prepare for the great impact of prevention and control on employment. At present, the quality of China's labor force is still not suitable for the intelligent high-end manufacturing model, and the overall cultural quality and skill level are still low. This requires the government to promote high-end manufacturing while improving the quality and skill level of the workforce. Otherwise, the robot brings about an increase in productivity, but the social problems brought about cannot be effectively solved. 3. Great impact on the company The rapid development of robots has had a huge impact on enterprises. First, robots can increase productivity and product quality. The robot does not stop during the operation, the quality of the product is less affected by human factors, and the product quality is more stable. Second, it can reduce business costs. In large-scale production, one robot can replace two to four industrial workers, depending on the specific conditions of the enterprise; the robot is not fatigued and can be continuously produced 24 hours a day. Third, the robot is easy to arrange production plans. Due to the high repeatability of the robot, as long as the parameters are given, they will always follow the instructions, so the production plan is very clear. Fourth, robots can shorten the cycle of product retrofits and reduce the corresponding equipment investment. The biggest difference between robots and special planes is that they can be modified to suit the production of different workpieces. In the product update, it is only necessary to redesign the corresponding fixture according to the updated product. The robot body does not need to be modified. As long as the corresponding program command is changed, the product update and device update can be performed. Fifth, robots can save workers from a variety of harsh and dangerous environments and broaden the scope of business. Sixth, robots represent the highest level of industrial automation, reflecting the company's advanced processing capabilities and scientific research capabilities, which has raised the corporate image and competitiveness to a higher level.
Pneumatic cylinders (sometimes known as air cylinders) are mechanical devices which use the power of compressed gas to produce a force in a reciprocating linear motion.
Like hydraulic cylinders, something forces a piston to move in the desired direction. The piston is a disc or cylinder, and the piston rod transfers the force it develops to the object to be moved. Engineers sometimes prefer to use pneumatics because they are quieter, cleaner, and do not require large amounts of space for fluid storage.
Because the operating fluid is a gas, leakage from a Pneumatic Cylinder will not drip out and contaminate the surroundings, making pneumatics more desirable where cleanliness is a requirement. For example, in the mechanical puppets of the Disney Tiki Room, pneumatics are used to prevent fluid from dripping onto people below the puppets.
Once actuated, compressed air enters into the tube at one end of the piston and, hence, imparts force on the piston. Consequently, the piston becomes displaced (moved) by the compressed air expanding in an attempt to reach atmospheric pressure.
Although pneumatic cylinders will vary in appearance, size and function, they generally fall into one of the specific categories shown below. However there are also numerous other types of pneumatic cylinder available, many of which are designed to fulfill specific and specialized functions.
