On November 7, 2021, the third day of the 4th CIIE, the exhibition area was full of people coming and going. In the skills and equipment exhibition area, there were many visitors in front of the Epson booth at the CIIE for the second time this year, and the huge LED illuminated logo was particularly dazzling against the blue background. This year, Epson's booth was divided into three exhibition areas: "Green Motion Culture and Printing for a Clean Life", "Smart Digital Space, Spiritual Future", and "Civilization Inheritance, Ingenuity", which exhibited more than 40 solutions and nearly 80 products from green and sustainable development, industrial automation promotion, and civilization innovation inheritance.
In the 14th Five-Year Plan, China has put forward clear requirements for improving industrial digitalization, and vigorously promoted the transformation of the manufacturing industry to high-end, intelligent and green.
Among the many excellent display plans, we first pay attention to the robot intelligent agriculture plan. Agriculture is the foundation of the national economy and plays a vital role in the steady development of the national economy. As a deep cultivator and promoter in the field of robotics, Epson has continued to provide experience and skill plans for the development of automation in various fields in China.
The traditional plant cultivation profession adopts artificial cultivation, which lacks accurate control and timely monitoring of the environment. In order to solve the problems faced by many farmers such as time-consuming and laborious large-scale harvesting and difficult maintenance, Epson has launched a dexterous six-axis robot C8-A1401S, which can operate 360o accurately in a very small space, and cooperate with Epson's own vision system PV1 to provide customers with one-stop intelligent handling of the whole process, from the detection data transmission of plant leaves and root growth, to the cleaning and pruning of the root system, and finally to complete the planting of plant wheat seedlings, complete intelligent, unmanned, SterilityFrom breeding to cultivation, the intelligent camera carried by the robot can detect the whole process in real time in the process of plant growth and development, and remove the seeds with poor development, which greatly improves the yield of breeding. The robot can also record the growth rules of plants in the form of data, deploy Epson vision systems for real-time detection, and "share" crop cultivation experience with intelligent robots, which can be widely used in the selection and cultivation of wheat seedlings of hydroponic vegetables such as lettuce, green peppers, tomatoes, etc., and comprehensively contribute to agricultural modernization, digitalization and precision. The plan is an excellent embodiment of the promotion of agriculture to digital agriculture, precision agriculture and intelligent agriculture, and provides an excellent example and new ideas for the intelligent transformation of China's agriculture.
In addition to agriculture, Epson has also made great achievements in industrial transformation, and Epson has built a digital and intelligent chemical factory with its own valuable experience in digital transformation. After improving the level of digitalization and automated production, we can better meet the needs of personalized small-batch customization, and establish a high-quality and low-cost intelligent production line.
In terms of intelligent production, Epson combines central skills with sensing and intelligent skills, and deploys Epson's vision system under the effect of Epson's unique pressure sensor to complete devices, piercing, and other refined tasks that can only be done by human sensitive organs. In the process of production supervision, the traditional manual management power is low, and the robots in the operation can only be checked one by one, which not only consumes manpower and material resources, but also has errors in monitoring accuracy. In this regard, Epson believes that it is important to systematically manage the operation and maintenance power of the factory. Epson provided an intelligent inspection solution plan for the factory, and achieved good results through Epson's six-axis robot collaborative autonomous mobile cabinet trolley to replace manual inspection and inspection of the production line.
For example, in the process of equipment troubleshooting, it was often necessary to wait for repair personnel from other places to go to the site for on-site guidance, which not only increased the operation and maintenance cost, but also reduced the production power. Epson's long-distance counseling program, through the intelligent AR glasses long-distance connection expert system, breaks the constraints of the operation area, transmits on-site pictures to experts in other places at any time, completes timely, clear and stable long-distance counseling on the site conditions, and allows experts to eliminate problems at the first time and ensure production power.
Epson provides intelligent inspection solutions for factories, which can complete long-distance real-time diagnosis and maintenance operations, conduct real-time and visual analysis of robot service life, operating status, repair backup and other information, assist enterprises to control the status of production lines in real time, and reduce supervision costs while comprehensively improving the operation and maintenance power of the factory.
In addition to exhibiting a variety of digital and intelligent products and solutions, Epson also actively collaborated with local partners, shared valuable experiences, and jointly promoted the transformation of industry and agriculture to digital and intelligent upgrades. Epson has reached a joint strategic cooperation with Shanghai Nokia Bell Co., Ltd. and Beijing Yicheng Hi-Tech Technology Development Co., Ltd., and the three parties will be strategic partners with each other to jointly create the most attractive 5G+ intelligent production career solution plan, and jointly expand China's 5G+ intelligent production career market, and contribute to the vigorous development of intelligent production.
Regarding the 14th Five-Year Plan, Epson has a deeper understanding and a more long-term approach, that is, the cultivation and cultivation of talents. Epson is well aware that cultivating talents is both a key point and a bottleneck. With the gradual popularization of robots, more and more factories are using robots, and the country is paying more and more attention to vocational education, especially the cultivation of high-end skilled talents such as robot engineers. This makes us realize that there is a huge demand for skilled talents in the current domestic market. In order to further meet the needs of Chinese users for transformation and promotion, Epson not only hopes to promote the digital transformation of occupations and industries through its own superior skills, but also hopes to provide assistance for the cultivation of intelligent production professional and skilled talents. Therefore, Epson takes the actual industrial environment as the keynote, and cooperates with the Funa Robot Training Campus to create a smart factory talent skills training plan, providing employees with one-stop education from the basic skills of robot operation and debugging, and helping the factory to implement rapid and useful talent cultivation. The Epson Digital Intelligence Factory Skilled Talent Cultivation Program is based on Epson's AR smart glasses and relying on the 5G network to complete first-person education, which can complete multi-scenario, multi-module, and multi-level one-stop learning, meet personalized education needs, and continue to deliver professional and skilled talents in the field of intelligence for enterprises. Together, it can also combine Epson robots, value-added options and a variety of processes to improve the operation and debugging functions of basic skills to meet the needs of different levels of education.
At this year's CIIE, Epson showed a set of robot engineer education stations, through four-axis and six-axis robots, in collaboration with Epson's intelligent AR smart glasses, we can provide multi-module one-stop intelligent education and training. Together, AR smart glasses can be deployed to complete real-time interaction in different places, as well as first-person video tutoring. Epson not only hopes to promote the digital transformation of occupations and industries through its own superior skills, but also hopes to help the cultivation of professional and skilled talents in intelligent manufacturing, and help factories to implement rapid and useful talent cultivation.
