In the eyes of ordinary people, "robots" should be like "Transformers" and also "four limbs and five functions." In fact, an "industrial robot" is a machine device that automatically performs work and can work according to artificial intelligence. A few years ago, industrial robots were still "unsalable goods" that nobody wanted. Now orders can grow steadily every year. The annual growth rate of robot use has reached 30% to 60%. Zinc die casting is a manufacturing process that involves the production of complex and intricate metal components using zinc as the primary material. This Zinc Alloy Die Casting process is commonly used in various industries, including automotive, electronics, and telecommunications.
In Zinc Die Casting Products, molten zinc is injected into a mold cavity under high pressure. The mold is typically made of steel and is designed to create the desired shape and dimensions of the final product. Once the molten zinc solidifies, the mold is opened, and the finished part is ejected.

Under the background of shortage of labor and increased labor costs, manufacturing companies are happy to use industrial robots instead of general workers and bring “spring†to the upstream robot manufacturing industry.
Each of the robots is making the workshop "spatially sparsely populated," and an unmanned van is making the logistics between the factories become methodical. With the popularity of industrial robots, more and more companies in the Pearl River Delta are moving in the direction of “unmanned factoriesâ€.
Robot orders increase greatly affected by automation
According to Bi Yalei, Assistant to the Dean of the Shenzhen Advanced Technology Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and Secretary General of Shenzhen Robot Association, the annual growth rate of robot use in the Pearl River Delta Region has reached 30% to 60%.
Phenomenon: SMEs have also used Robotics Industrial Robot Co., Ltd. for long-term production of industrial robot applications. "When the Chinese New Year, there are companies that actively ask and book products. This has never happened before." Li Jun, head of sales at the company, said, "This year's statement of intention is nearly 30% more than the same period last year." Li Jun said.
The increase in orders from SMEs is particularly evident. "The production line of a chip production company requires more than 30 workers. They want to use multi-functional robots that automatically feed, detect appearance and classify products. Such a device is priced at less than 300,000 yuan and its service life is 5 to 7 years. It can be used as an alternative. 10 to 12 assembly line workers, said Li Jun.
Li Jun said: "In the past, few domestic robots were made, so many of our company's spare parts must be purchased abroad. Now that the industrial chain of robots is more complete than before, there are more spare parts manufacturers and the cost has been reduced."
In Shenzhen, Shunde, and other places, a large number of robot manufacturing companies came into being. “We used to do electronic products. Later, we customized a number of non-standard products that were automatically handled according to the needs of our customers, and later discovered the market space for this stuff. More broad.†Chen Tianteng, marketing manager of Guangdong Jiateng Robot Co., told reporters that the company began its transformation in 2005 as an industrial robot. Now that the products have reached the seventh generation, the company’s performance has increased by more than 40% each year.
"Before 2010, you didn't want to send people home. From the second half of last year, orders were taken on the initiative." Chen Riteng said that they are about to release the seventh-generation unmanned truck products to replace artificial batteries forklifts under 2.5 tons. . Based on the sales volume of 200,000 forklift trucks last year, if half of them use such unmanned vans, their market capacity will reach RMB 36 billion per year.
For the advent of the “warm spring†in the robotics industry, Li Yuanxing, the chairman of Shunde Dingfeng Robotics Co., Ltd., was deeply experienced. Li Yuanxing said that orders for stamping robots have increased by 40% to 50% compared with the same period of last year. To expand production capacity, Shunde is currently looking for a location and plans to open a new factory within two months.
However, according to insiders, at present, China’s robot market is still dominated by foreign brands, 80% to 90% of the core components need to be imported, most robot companies are more customized according to customer needs, “making Iphone robots and Robots that make toys are totally different in terms of added value," said Li Jun.
Viewpoint technology department: own equipment has to do the relevant person in charge of the High-tech Section of the Foshan Municipal Bureau of Science and Technology, said that the realization of intelligent production in Foshan is not only a problem of introduction, but also a problem of absorbing and realizing integrated innovation.
"The first is to nurture its own numerical control equipment industry. Many devices including ceramic smart equipment and furniture woodworking industry are made by Foshan themselves and can basically meet the needs of mechanization; the second leg is the introduction, but even if it is bought, it must be introduced into other countries. The core technology, we absorb and achieve integrated innovation, the real equipment or do it yourself.†The responsible person said that the mechanized equipment produced by Foshan can meet the needs of local companies more than 50%.
Experts: The impact of automation of factory systems is more far-reaching. “The number of companies that currently use robots is increasing. The Chinese robotics industry has entered a period of explosive growth.†Biaret said that in the Pearl River Delta region, the annual growth rate of robot use has reached 30% to 60%. Especially in the assembly, dispensing, handling, welding and other industrial areas.
Biaret said: "With the reduction in the cost of industrial robots, the original large companies can afford complete sets of automation equipment. However, due to factors such as shortage of labor and salary costs, small and medium-sized enterprises have increased their demand for single-site industrial robots."
Biaret said, “At present, the gap between China’s robotics industry and foreign industries is still relatively large. Many companies involved in this industry only provide solutions. For example, six-arm robots have wider reach and higher precision, and they need to introduce foreign technologies. If only a simple four-axis package is available, domestic companies can complete it."
“In the concept of SMEs, more robots are currently replacing workers. However, for companies, the impact of automation and improvement of the entire system will be far more profound,†said Biaret.
Robot market related data:
In 2012, the capacity of the global robot ontology market was 53 billion yuan, and the ontology plus integrated market capacity was about three times that of the ontology, which was approximately 160 billion yuan. For the year 2013-2017, China Creation Securities estimates that the global industrial robot market including ontology and integration will have a compound annual growth rate of approximately 11%. It is estimated that by 2017, the global industrial robot market capacity will reach 270 billion yuan.
