Recently, STEP Robotics, a high-quality robot brand, announced a new breakthrough in technology research and development: the main product of palletizing robots, SP120/2400, has a beat rate of 1,000 bags/hour in actual working conditions, and its performance is ahead of domestic brands. It is the first to challenge international first-line brands. .

In accordance with the strategic goal of "matching imports and replacing imports", STEP robots start from product research and development, and pursue the ultimate in algorithms, software, machinery, electrical and other links. The results of this technological breakthrough will be applied to the entire series of STEP robots to further improve the quality of STEP robots, help partners and users improve the efficiency of robots, and liberate workers from difficult, labor-intensive, and simple and boring jobs. .

Due to the requirements of working conditions, the key indicator of the palletizing robot is the beat, and the beat level of the international first-line brand palletizing robot is around 1100-1200 packs/hour. Domestic robot brands started late, limited by technical level, palletizing robot beats are mostly lower than 700 packs/hour, and the gap with international first-line brands is obvious. It is of great significance for STEP robots to achieve a beat rate of 1000 packs per hour for palletizing robots. In the future, they will challenge the beats of 1100 packs and 1200 packs to achieve the same quality as international first-line brands.

The market's demand for palletizing robots continues to rise, and the phenomenon of labor shortage is particularly prominent in the palletizing stations commonly known as "carrying large bags". Due to the heavy work intensity and arduous position of the palletizing station, especially in summer when the temperature is high, several tons of products have to be transported and palletized every day. The work is even harder, and only strong and strong laborers can do it. From the perspective of employment age structure, the hard-working post-60s and post-70s gradually withdraw from the high-intensity labor market, and the post-80s and post-90s lack the willingness to engage in such labor-intensive and unskilled jobs, so the recruitment of palletizing workers is poor. It's even harder. According to statistics from the International Federation of Robotics (IFR), in 2018, the number of newly installed robots in the Chinese market was 154,000, of which more than 60,000 were newly added handling and loading and unloading robots, which is the largest application category in the Chinese robot market. Palletizing robots are increasingly used in industries that are closely related to the national economy and the people's livelihood and have a large demand for products such as rice, feed, beverages, salt, and chemical fertilizers.
