As the "core limb" of industrial robots and intelligent devices, the robotic arm has evolved from a simple tool for repetitive labor to an "all-rounder" empowered by AI. The robotic arm system can act like an efficient aerial ballet dancer, simultaneously picking up, sorting and integrating packages, and completing multiple tasks on a single assembly line. During the demonstration, the robotic arm precisely avoided obstacles at a speed of handling hundreds of items per minute, resembling a miniaturized version of the "Transformers" in science fiction movies.
Obviously, robotic arms have become the "darlings" of the tech world worldwide. Because it is not only a tool but also a bridge - connecting human wisdom with machine power. In the current context of labor shortages and disrupted supply chains, robotic arms are reshaping manufacturing, healthcare and logistics.
"Robotic arms" are "robots" that can be applied in more scenarios.
Robotic arms have expanded from automotive welding to mobile phone assembly, surgical assistance, and even space maintenance.
In the manufacturing industry, robotic arms are the main force in precise assembly and large-scale production. Manufacturing is the "main battlefield" for robotic arms, accounting for over 60% of global applications. Robotic arms excel at handling high-precision and highly repetitive tasks such as welding, spraying and assembly, helping enterprises achieve "flexible manufacturing" and quickly switch product lines.
In the automotive manufacturing industry, articulated robotic arms are used for body welding and battery assembly.
In the 3C electronics industry, robotic arms can pick up chips and assemble screens at high speed. In mobile phone factories, robotic arms can achieve surface mount technology, processing hundreds of items per minute, helping the factories complete a miniaturization revolution.
In the metalworking and shipbuilding industries, Cartesian coordinate arms are used for loading CNC machine tools and heavy-duty cutting. In the field of shipping, robotic arms are used to handle the welding of large steel plates to reduce high-risk manual operations.
In the petrochemical and power generation industries, integrated sensors can monitor pipelines and transformers in hazardous environments to detect leaks in real time, thereby enhancing safety.
All of the above scenarios emphasize the load capacity and reproducibility of the robotic arm. The integration of AI has made these robotic arms increasingly "quick-witted and agile", shifting from "following the rules" to independently optimizing their paths.
In the logistics and warehousing industry, robotic arms are the "logistics tentacles" for efficient sorting. Under the explosive growth of e-commerce, logistics has become the new favorite of robotic arms.
In the picking and placing scenarios, the robotic arm can sort hundreds of packages per minute, avoid obstacles and increase efficiency by 30%. The logistics arm is used to remove goods from the pallet, and the modular fixture can adapt to goods of various specifications.
In packaging and sorting scenarios, the AI arm can automatically classify fragile items, reducing the error rate by 90%.
In the medical and rehabilitation industry, robotic arms are the "divine hands" of precise surgery.
In rehabilitation and nursing scenarios, bionic arms such as brain-controlled prostheses can provide haptic feedback, helping amputees regain a certain degree of normal life. In nursing homes, robotic arms are used to deliver medicine or assist the elderly in getting up. In the unmanned operation scenario of pharmacies, robotic arms can be used to automatically pick up medicine.
In laboratory automation scenarios, robotic arms are used to handle sample sorting and drug preparation to reduce human contamination.
4. In agricultural and environmental monitoring scenarios, robotic arms act as "intelligent farmers" working in the fields. In the context of labor shortage, agricultural robotic arms are used to address the pain points of precision operations.
In the scenarios of picking and sowing, the mechanical arm can grasp fruits at high speed, avoiding damage and increasing the picking efficiency of light crops by 50%. In the scenario of agricultural supplies transportation, autonomous mobile arms integrated with GPS navigation are used to transport fertilizers in the fields, enhancing the efficiency of manual transportation. In environmental monitoring scenarios, robotic arms can detect pollutants in disaster-stricken areas or mines and can withstand extreme conditions.
5. In commercial service and safety emergency scenarios, robotic arms are considerate human assistants. In some emerging scenarios, the application of robotic arms places more emphasis on human-machine interaction and does not require fences to collaborate with humans.
In commercial service scenarios, retail robotic arms are used to assist manual inventory taking and deliver meals in hotels, etc. In safety and emergency scenarios, robotic arms can grasp tools, build passages, and throw supplies in rescue scenarios. In space and military scenarios, robotic arms can repair satellites or carry drones to handle high-risk tasks.
Overall, the application scenarios of robotic arms are like an ever-expanding network, connecting efficiency with demand. Whether it's the roar of factories or the toil in the fields, it is reshaping the world.
