The world's largest tonnage handling robot was born in China

"China Smart Manufacturing" is the next city! Huanyan 6-axis handling robot with the largest load, developed by Huanyan Automation Equipment (Shanghai) Co., Ltd., was released recently and officially appeared at the 24th Beijing Essen Welding and Cutting Exhibition held by Shanghai New International Expo Center, causing a sensation in the industry.

Huanyan "Big Diamond" has a 4-meter arm span and six-degree-of-freedom joint composition. Its total weight exceeds 24 tons, working radius is 3.8 meters and payload is 3.6 tons, which is 2.3 tons higher than that of the famous Japanese industrial robot manufacturer Fanuc's M-2000iA/2300, which previously held the world record. The payload rate of Huanyan "Big Diamond" exceeds 56% of that of Fanuc, thus reaching a new record. However, this time the record was set by local Chinese companies.

"R&D in China, Made in Shanghai, All made in China." Huang Qigang, chairman of Huanyan Automation Equipment (Shanghai) Co., Ltd., is proud to say that Huanyan "Big Diamond" is made in China from its main body, reducer system, servo motor system, control system and other key components. It is reported that Huanyan "Dajingang" consists of the body and seven reducers, 12 servo motors and one controller. Among them, Huanyan independently develops the body and reducer, and the servo motors and controllers are developed and manufactured by domestic partners according to Huanyan's design needs. Within two months, Huanyan "Dajingang" independently designed and developed, produced drawings, opened moulds, processed, measured, assembled and debugged. Its high-efficiency speed, efficiency and execution ability made peers look at it. Experts said that the robot has good precision and control flexibility, can reduce operating costs and improve production speed. It is not only the strongest in the world, but also intelligent and flexible. It improves the production flexibility and productivity of the production line, and improves safety.

In the exhibition, the giant "Big Diamond Kong" looks like an oriental strongman "vigorously pulling mountains to the top of the world", stretching naturally, powerfully, flexibly and freely, attracting a group of people to watch, just like the stars of the exhibition. The dream of Huanyan Industrial Robot is to make robots affordable to all small and medium-sized enterprises, and it is also the dream of Huang Qigang, the founder of Huanyan Industrial Robot. Huanyan Robot, founded in 2014, has been different since its birth. It carries out precise strategic positioning and focuses on serving small and medium-sized enterprises: pursuing easy to use and cheap, pursuing the ultimate performance-price ratio, "good robots, in fact, are not expensive". Therefore, in just a few years, it has rapidly emerged as a new pioneer of domestic industrial robots, and won many awards, such as the most valuable investment enterprise, the most growing enterprise award of China's robotics industry, and so on. In 2018, its production and sales of welding robots accounted for about 70% of the domestic brand market share, and exported Industrial robots are the most representative equipment in the intelligent manufacturing industry. Industrial robot integrates advanced manufacturing technologies such as precision, flexibility, intelligence, software application and development. Through testing, control, optimization, scheduling, management and decision-making of the process, it achieves the goal of increasing output, improving quality, reducing cost, reducing resource consumption and environmental pollution. It is the highest expression of industrial automation level. Industrial robots are usually composed of core components, mechanical body and system integration. The core components include reducers, servo motors and controllers. The core components are the core barriers of industrial robotics industry. These core component technologies have long been controlled by Japanese and European enterprises.

In order to possess core technology and avoid being subjected to others, Huanyan poured heavy gold into importing advanced processing machine tools and equipment from Switzerland and Germany, recruited talents, devoted himself to research and development, overcame the independent research and development of RV reducer in one fell swoop, possessed core technologies such as ultra-small RV reducer and ultra-large RV reducer, and obtained many patents. The Huanyan "Big Diamond Kong" first axis RV reducer has a diameter of 1.5 meters and a weight of 2.7 tons. It is the largest in the world and is fully independent in research and development. At the 6th China Robot Summit in May 2019, Huanyan reported the research and development achievements of its own robot without control cabinet and all RV joints welding robot, which attracted great attention of the industry. At the Essen Welding and Cutting Exhibition, more than ten famous experts, such as Academician of Chinese Academy of Sciences, Pan Jiluan, International Welding Engineering Specialist, Song Tianhu, Director of China Mechanical Engineering Society, and so on, opened the annual famous "Jack Cup" International Robot Welding Competition. Huanyan Welding Robot won the only competition machine in the international competition.

China has become the world's largest demand market for industrial robots, with Japanese and European corporate brands occupying most of the market share. In recent years, with the emphasis and support of the national policy on Intelligent manufacturing, thousands of domestic industrial robots have emerged, but more are assembly workshops that do not master the core technology. There are few local enterprises with independent R&D and production capacity like Huanyan. Experts say that Huanyan is able to stand out because Huanyan and other brands have adopted strategic development strategies: developing high-performance price-ratio robots to meet the needs of small and medium-sized enterprises; recruiting talents at home and abroad to research and develop key parts of robots, such as reducers, servo motors and controllers; and joining upstream and downstream industries at the same time. Collaboration, utilizing the advantages of supply chain resources and concentrating on "point blasting" has become a competitive "China Intelligent Manufacturing".
