As As Artificial intelligence , intelligence, digital technology and robot technology continue to integrate, robot end execution tools are also undergoing profound changes in technology and characteristics. The end-of-term execution tools test the company's comprehensive capabilities such as product development, quality control level, professionalism, benign iteration and continuous investment. Although the threshold is not low, with the popularity of the industry, many companies have participated in it and are constantly meeting and creating challenges...
ATI, as an enterprise focusing on the end-of-term execution tool industry, has always kept up with the development of robotics technology on the road of intelligence and digitalization. In this regard, Tongxin Intelligent Manufacturing Network Tongxin Intelligent Manufacturing Network interviewed ATI Industrial Automation Co., Ltd. to understand ATI's insights and foresight in the industry development trend.
At the end of 2021, ATI released a new CV14 safety control module, the world's first, with its own tool numbering function, which can realize the rapid identification of tool code, integrate the interlocking function of solenoid valves and tool brackets, and also has an LED display function, which can quickly judge on-site problems. Obviously, as robotics continues to mature, ATI is increasing investment and progressing in terminal execution tools.
As a professional robot end-execution tool supplier, ATI has three major product series, including robot tool quick change device, six-dimensional force/ torque sensor and robot material removal tools.
robot tool quick change device can increase the working flexibility of the robot. Among them, the quick change of heavy load tool heavy-load tool is mainly used in the automobile manufacturing industry: in the welding and assembly process, it is used to switch welding gun and grippers; in the stamping process, it is used to transfer molds; in the assembly process, it is used to switch different automotive module parts for assembly. The application of standard light load tool quick change is more widely. In the automation industry, if robots exist, there will be applications of robot tool quick change devices, mainly involving handling, electronic assembly, battery production, automated loading and unloading, packaging and palletizing, surgical robots, measurement and testing, machining, etc. The advantage of the quick tool change device is that while ensuring the production rhythm, it not only reduces the robot's footprint, but also increases the robot's flexibility.
Automobile industry application heavy load quick replacement
Robot material removal tools are mainly used for robot grinding, polishing, and deburring, such as crankshaft , stainless steel steering joint , automotive weld grinding, paint polishing and grinding, post-treatment of machined parts and die castings, etc.

6-dimensional force/moment sensor, which can be applied in 3C electronic assembly, scientific research, test measurement, medical surgical robot, biomechanics research, product testing , grinding and polishing, wind tunnel experiments, robot research and other fields. Judging from the current market share, ATI's six-dimensional force/moment sensor accounts for nearly 90% of the global scientific research and university fields, and is also being used in the industrial and medical fields. In addition to standardized products, ATI also provides customized services to customize sensors according to customer needs, such as NASA's space-level sensors, Perseverance rover successfully launched in July 2020 and sensors dedicated to the medical industry.
FT sensor and medical industry application
can reach cooperation with NASA, which is also a proof of ATI's strength. The company spent 9 years discussing and solving potential problems with NASA, and finally creating a space-level sensor, which further strengthened the company's motivation and determination to pursue higher technology.
Faced with the continuous influx of new companies and the intensifying competition, ATI also has full confidence, and confidence comes from strength and confidence. The company has world-class end-of-terminal execution tool products R&D, experiment and testing capabilities, and its customers cover high-tech and strict industry customers such as scientific research institutions, electronic products, automobiles, aerospace, etc. Over the past 30 years since its establishment, ATI has continuously expanded its engineering R&D capabilities and product quality, and pursued innovation.In addition to its own requirements, ATI's close cooperation with customers is also promoting common growth. It has successfully achieved thousands of customer applications, creating a large-scale mature R&D and design team in the industry, and making progress with the innovation of the industry.
According to data from IFR and CRIA, with the deepening of China's automation level, the density of robots in my country's manufacturing industry soared from 49 units in 2015 to 246 units per 10,000 people in 2020. In just five years, China's ranking has jumped from 25th in 2015 to ninth in the world. The shipment volume and application of robots are constantly increasing, and quick change devices are also entering the fast lane.
In order to cope with the ever-changing Chinese market, ATI insists on innovation while constantly deepening and developing, relying on cutting-edge technologies in North America to serve the needs of Chinese users. In addition, continuous localization is ATI's core strategy for its development in China. In 2022, the newly expanded robot material removal and electrical module production and assembly center will be one of ATI's most important strategic investments in the world. In addition, ATI will continue to expand the lease of more than 1,200 square meters of land from Xianghe Robot Industrial Park, recruit more than 20 people, expand ATI China Production and Assembly Center, build a local intelligent manufacturing benchmark factory, and drive the transformation and upgrading of the local manufacturing industry.
