As a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC) for the first time, Sun Zhiqiang, Chairman of Risong Technology, deeply felt the glorious mission and significant responsibility. "I hope to contribute to the development of the robot and intelligent manufacturing industry through my own experience accumulation and in-depth observation of the industry," Sun Zhiqiang said in an interview with a reporter from Shanghai Securities News.
 

The key breakthrough for China to become a manufacturing power lies in the autonomous and controllable robot industry. As a "veteran" in the field of industrial robots, Sun Zhiqiang will actively make suggestions around "how to accelerate the application of domestic industrial robots in mid to high-end fields".
 

Improve the application level of domestic robots
 

The robot industry is known as the "pearl at the top of the manufacturing crown", and its high-quality development is of great significance for promoting industrial transformation and upgrading, and creating new advantages in manufacturing in China.
 

Sun Zhiqiang believes that in recent years, China's robot industry has made great progress with policy support, but there are still imbalances in industrial development, especially in high-end applications such as automobiles, new energy, 3C semiconductors, rail transit, aerospace, and other fields. There is still a large gap between China's robot industry and foreign brands.
 

In Sun Zhiqiang's view, on the one hand, it is due to the late start of domestic robots, and on the other hand, it is due to the lack of demonstration applications of domestic robots in mid to high-end key areas. "The lack of real and rich application scenarios for domestic robots has led to their inability to iteratively upgrade and improve the applicability of products and technologies, making it difficult to make breakthroughs in technology."
 

In response, Sun Zhiqiang suggested that we give full play to our country's institutional and market advantages, work simultaneously on both the demand side and the supply side, and mobilize efforts to promote the application of domestic robots in terms of funds, resources, and talent, so as to promote the continuous improvement of performance of domestic industrial robots.
 

On the demand side, Sun Zhiqiang believes that it is possible to organize the implementation of domestic robot application verification projects, select key enterprises or projects in key industries, establish alternative application demonstration lines for robot localization, effectively fill the application gap, and boost the application confidence of domestic robots in mid to high-end fields. "Promote a group of domestic robots to take the lead in the mid and high-end fields, so that they can obtain more technical information feedback, thereby promoting the faster development of mid and high-end technologies."
 

On the supply side, Sun Zhiqiang proposes to integrate the advantageous resources of the domestic robot industry chain, select and establish a number of joint research teams involving domestic robot system solution providers, ontology manufacturers, core component suppliers, scientific research institutions, and other parties, strengthen collaborative supply capabilities, specifically address the difficulties and pain points in the demand side of key areas, and form solutions for domestic robots in key areas and promote their application.
 

Sun Zhiqiang also proposed to establish the "China Robotics Association" as soon as possible, organize the creation of a collaborative innovation mechanism of "industry, university, research, and financial policy", and organize and promote the implementation of major research topics and key projects in the robot industry.
 

Guide the manufacturing industry to accelerate transformation and upgrading
 

In addition to the domestic application of industrial robots, Sun Zhiqiang also focuses on topics such as accelerating the transformation and upgrading of intelligent manufacturing. In his view, the digital transformation of traditional manufacturing enterprises is the only way for China's high-end manufacturing industry to go global.
 

"As a private technology enterprise and located in the robot and intelligent manufacturing industry, we should actively integrate into the overall development situation and strive to build our core technological competitiveness," said Sun Zhiqiang.
 

It is reported that Ruisong Technology has been deeply engaged in the field of intelligent manufacturing for a long time, focusing on the development of robotics, intelligent technology, manufacturing processes, and industrial software, providing customers with flexible and intelligent manufacturing system solutions. Previously, the company had helped GAC Toyota become one of the global model factories for Toyota Motor, helping the autonomous brand GAC Trumpchi Auto automated production line achieve intelligent seamless switching of the entire production line and highly unmanned production.
 

"In the future, we will pay more attention to the combination of robot products and application scenarios, coupled with the company's layout achievements in the fields of industrial software and machine vision, and provide overall digital manufacturing solutions to help more industries achieve intelligent manufacturing." Sun Zhiqiang said that Ruisong Technology will participate in the global digital process, while driving the development of the intelligent manufacturing industry, seek a leading position in the field of robotics and intelligent manufacturing.
 

"We look forward to more policies issued by the country to guide the manufacturing industry to accelerate the implementation of transformation and upgrading strategies, support the popularization of digitalization and networking among manufacturing enterprises throughout the industry, achieve intelligence, and promote the healthy development of the robot and intelligent equipment industry." Sun Zhiqiang said.
