Spider-man meets Iron Man: Our welding robot is the only one in the world!
Date：2019-06-21 Views：859
It is small and exquisite, but can climb walls, comparable to "Spiderman"; It is powerful, pointing everywhere, welding tanks efficiently and accurately, like "Iron Man". Determined to win a "Huaihai battle" in the welding industry, it blooms the gorgeous flowers of the industrial application of trackless all-position crawling welding robots.
June in Zhanjiang, Guangdong Province, has entered the southern summer season. The sun is scorching, sometimes sunny and sometimes rainy, hot and humid. At this time, on the Donghai Island of Zhanjiang City, a large-scale chemical base is being built in full swing. The five joint projects of Sinopec Fifth Construction Co., Ltd. have been completed, and four huge storage tanks stand tall, which is the first masterpiece of the trackless all-position crawling welding robot from Botsing Technology with Tsinghua genes.
Many construction workers were surprised to find that compared with other construction sites in the chemical base, there are fewer people here, and there are even fewer welders. Everything comes from this small trackless all-position crawling welding robot, which can be lifted by an adult man, but it has its own magic: the crawling skills are comparable to "Spiderman", and the welding skills are like "Iron Man".
Today, with the rapid development of modern industrialization, more and more industries have begun to use industrial robots, and the level of welding automation has gradually improved. However, in the large structural parts, spherical steel structure and other special structures, still rely on workers manual welding. As an industry leader, Botsing Technology's "intelligent" trackless all-position crawling welding robot is currently unique in the world, and this revolutionary product is the first engineering application after 30 years of scientific research and out of the laboratory.
Welding bid farewell to the era of manual dependence, and welders were also liberated. "A skilled welder must have five or six years of on-the-spot experience accumulation and growth in order to achieve the ideal state." Wang Zhengwei, welding process engineer and chief engineer of Botsing Technology Zhanjiang Project, said that manual welding is affected by subjective and objective factors in all aspects, with low efficiency, unstable welding quality, poor working environment, occupational diseases, and even high incidence of safety production accidents.
With this welding robot, as long as the debugging is good, it can be fully automatic and intelligent operation, and can be copied indefinitely. "Welders are liberated to become 'overseers' of robots." Wang Zhengwei said that the total length of the weld in Zhanjiang project reached tens of kilometers, and Botsing technology only used ten robots to achieve several times the amount of manual labor.
Once in Guangxi Fangchenggang nuclear power project to do welding process management work, last year to join Botsing technology Hefei guy, welding process engineer Chen Hao said that his work is mainly to operate the console of the welding robot, "by constantly adjusting the parameters, so that the robot is more accurate to complete the welding, in fact, it is greatly liberated the welder's labor force."
Jiang Quchao, a welder from Guangxi Province, feels this even more deeply. "It's much easier now, and people don't squat there for a long time like in the past, burying their heads in 'welding', without holding a welding torch, just need to look after the progress of robot welding, and occasionally fine-tune it." Jiang Quchao said that not only liberated the welders, but also greatly improved the efficiency. "A one-meter long weld, a skilled welder like me, used to take three or four hours, now with a welding robot, it can be completed in an hour at most." In the past, I could weld with an accuracy of more than 90 percent, and now the robot can be more than 98 percent accurate."
Team like brothers, determined to win the "Huaihai Battle"
The five joint projects have been completed, and the EOGO project is under construction. Botsing technology has become a highlight of Zhanjiang Dongdao chemical base, the focus of the industry, in addition to the efficient application of trackless all-position crawling welding robot, behind more is a special fight, especially able to bear the difficulties of the team. At its peak, there was only a small team of more than 20 people, members from all over the country, including Inner Mongolia, Guangxi, Shandong and Anhui. Everyone works together, through thick and thin, for one goal.
On June 16, Father's Day, Li Hailong, deputy director of Botsing Technology Research and Development Center and head of Zhanjiang Project, took out his mobile phone and made a video call with a pair of lovely sons and daughters in Hohhot. Such a dialogue has become a "daily lesson" for Li Hailong. As a father, Li Hailong's heart is full of guilt for his child. From October 8 last year to Zhanjiang project, he has been busy, this year's Dragon Boat Festival did not go back, and colleagues work overtime. "In the children most need to accompany the time, we are far away from home, relatives, regret is inevitable." But in order to work, in order to welding this cause, can only say that the hard work of the old man and wife at home, is they fully support us. I can only try to make up for the absence of a father through video." At this time, Li Hailong's words were gentle, full of fatherly love and firmness.
Su Qiang, the marketing specialist who is now responsible for the logistics of the Zhanjiang project site, also has regrets. At present, his wife is pregnant and will give birth in August. "I have been in Zhanjiang project for more than three months, and I only went back home for three days." Su Qiang said that he is going to be a father, because the current task is heavy and time is tight, it may be time for his wife to give birth, and he may not have time to wait for and accompany him home.
In Zhanjiang project, Wang Zhengwei is not only the chief engineer, but also a part-time driver, driving for everyone. "The construction site here is very large, it is estimated that it will take about 40 minutes to walk from the Five joint project to the EOGO project." Wang Zhengwei said that without the car, it can be said that it is difficult to move an inch. Actually, it's more difficult to drive here. "The East Sea island is all a wasteland, after large construction vehicles to roll back and forth, there are potholes everywhere, and it often rains here, so everywhere is a muddy, often can encounter deep holes, drive a bad car can sink into." Wang Zhengwei joined Botsing Technology in 2017 and has been stationed on the Zhanjiang project since October last year, with more than 100 hours of overtime work per month.
"Advance despite difficulties, have the courage to climb, unite and cooperate, fight together, only seek contribution, indifferent to fame and wealth." This is Academician Pan Jiluan's deep expectation of Botsing Technology. Dr. Feng Xiaobing, CEO of Botsing Technology, compared the Zhanjiang project to a "Huaihai battle".
Zhanjiang high temperature, high humidity, outside the construction, the morning sun exposure, the afternoon is often torrential rain. In such a harsh environment, this team of more than 20 people will play the "Huaihai Campaign". "What we want is the spirit of suffering and fighting in the Huaihai Campaign." Li Hailong said that the team of more than 20 people is not conspicuous in the construction team of more than 10,000 people in the Donghai Chemical Base, but it relies on strong technical advantages to play a huge energy.
Every morning, Li Hailong and his colleagues leave for the project site from their residence at more than 7 am, and do not return until 8 or 9 PM. Although the work is very hard, the sense of mission and purpose in each colleague makes the team particularly cohesive. "There is a brotherly team feeling, which is reflected in many details of daily life. For example, brother Li Hailong, although he is in charge here, has never had any shelves, and he always takes the lead in carrying the barreled water that everyone drinks." Su Qiang said.
Fill the gaps in the industry, the future is promising
On January 18th 2017, Botsing Technology, which shoulders the important mission of welding robot industrialization, was formally established. In just one year, at the Advanced Manufacturing Finals of the 7th China Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition in 2018, Botsing Technology passed all the way and won the silver medal of the national finals.
At present, Botsing Technology has developed a planar intelligent mobile welding robot with weld tracking ability and a pipeline welding robot to solve the automation problem of pipeline welding on the basis of the trackless all-position crawling welding robot. Much attention is that the trackless all-position crawling welding robot has developed to four generations of machines, the weight of the crawling machine is only 16 kg, all the load is only 25 kg, a person can lift, and more lightweight, flexible, laser tracking and composite control, autonomous tracking of the weld, the accuracy can reach 0.5 mm.
Zhanjiang project became famous, and now a number of cooperation projects, including Masteel, are in full swing. "The market application prospect of the trackless all-position crawling welder robot is very good, and it is positioned in the welding of small and medium-sized storage tanks and spherical tanks, and is widely used." In the view of Zhou Xiule, the national model worker and the head of Sinopec Five Construction Company Zhou Xiule's "model worker Innovation Studio", the welding robot for small and medium-sized storage tanks is still a blind spot in the industry, and this achievement of Botsing technology just fills the gap in the industry. "From the current situation of our field application, the detection pass rate and radiography are 100% qualified, and the indicators also meet the requirements of the standard specifications." This is the first time the product has been used industrially, and the results are much better than expected." He believes that automation and intelligence are the future development direction of industrial science and technology, and the replacement of artificial welding robots is an inevitable trend.
Xie Guangwei, manager of the production management department of Botsing Technology and deputy manager of the Zhanjiang project, previously worked in a well-known foreign company, joined in December last year and went to Zhanjiang in March this year. "As a start-up, the conditions and income are not as good as the foreign company I was in, but I resolutely joined, because I saw the mission of China's intelligent manufacturing by Botsing Technology, leading unique technology, dynamic and passionate team, and the future market application of welding robots." Xie Guangwei said.
In addition to welding robots, Botsing Technology also provides welding power supplies, consumables, process solutions, technical consulting and other services. Talking about the future development direction of the company, Dr. Feng Xiaobing, CEO of Botsing Technology, said that in the next step, the company will carry out business in the fields of nuclear power, shipbuilding, energy and continue to carry out technological innovation, in order to improve the automatic welding level of large welding structures in China and improve the production efficiency of China's welding industry.
