Recently, artificial intelligence has once again become a hot topic of discussion among people. This year's two sessions proposed to continue promoting the "Artificial Intelligence+" action, better combining digital technology with manufacturing and market advantages, supporting the widespread application of large models, vigorously developing new generation intelligent terminals such as intelligent connected new energy vehicles, artificial intelligence smartphones and computers, intelligent robots, and intelligent manufacturing equipment. As the fastest innovation technology at present, artificial intelligence is accelerating its deep integration with the real economy, continuously empowering traditional industries, and giving birth to emerging and future industries.
A welding workshop at a shipyard in Jiangsu province has recently welcomed a new intelligent robot employee. Unlike many industrial robots on production lines that can only follow a fixed path to weld fixed positions, this newly developed intelligent welding robot has strong capabilities. Workers can throw it workpieces of different sizes and shapes, and it can weld them quickly and well.
Industrial robots are known as the "pearl at the top of the manufacturing crown" and are an important indicator of a country's high-end manufacturing level. At present, China has the world's largest number of industrial robots, with over 2 million units, but the vast majority work in pre programmed mode, suitable for large-scale and batch production scenarios.
