Will the "age of robots" replace construction workers?

According to the field of application can be divided into design, construction, transportation and demolition of four major categories

The development of construction robots and the formation of the type of construction by the needs of building construction. Theoretically, all complex processes in the construction of building projects can be replaced or assisted by the corresponding construction robot, which is the future development potential and development direction of construction robots. From the construction engineering construction, its construction process mainly includes earthworks, foundation and foundation works, masonry works, reinforced concrete works, waterproofing works, decorative works and other major categories, various types of works and includes a variety of large and small processes as well as specific construction operations, so construction robots can be developed in the construction of construction engineering construction of a very rich variety. Construction robots can be used in four sub-division of the construction engineering field: design, construction, operation and maintenance, demolition, each sub-division of the application field corresponds to a different function of the construction robot products.

Have greater advantages in reducing errors and protecting workers

Construction robots, as an emerging technology with great potential for development, are expected to realize "safer, more efficient, greener and smarter" information-based construction, and to realize the leapfrog development of the entire construction industry. The construction industry's leapfrog development. Compared with traditional labor, construction robots have many advantages:

Reducer, servo system and control system are the core components

Construction robotics industry is divided into the upstream, midstream, downstream and industry applications according to the industrial chain. Upstream for the reducer, servo system, control system and other core components production; midstream for the production of construction robot body; downstream is based on the end of the industry-specific needs of the construction robot system integration, mainly used to realize the welding, assembly, testing, handling, spraying, and other processes or functions, and finally the formation of the end-product construction robot.

Servo system and reducer cost accounted for the highest

In the composition of the construction robot, the core components are particularly important, determining the performance of the construction robot, with high technical barriers, high profitability. In the industry's cost structure, the upstream core components account for the highest cost, reaching about 70%. Among them, the cost of reducer, servo system, controller accounted for 35%, 20%, 15% respectively. At present, China's construction robot core components are mainly imported from abroad, the largest importer is Japan.

China's construction industry robot density is relatively low

With the application of robots is becoming more and more extensive and in-depth, the industry generally believe that the "robotics revolution" has come, artificial intelligence, robotics industry is not only for the economic growth of the injection of new impetus, but also will profoundly change the pattern of division of labor of the global manufacturing industry. At present, the global scope of South Korea and Singapore is the wider application of robotics countries, its 2021 manufacturing robot density of more than 600 units, China's manufacturing and construction industry, robot density of about 200-350 units, with the developed countries than there is still some room for growth.
