Approaching the Spring Festival, the robot sharing factory located in Tangshan High-tech Zone is still in full swing. In the design and R&D area, the R&D team "takes the pulse" of the user's product design and R&D links; In the processing and production area, shared equipment such as robot welding workstations, automatic plasma cutting machines, and 3D printers are readily ......available

Tangshan Robot Sharing Factory is an industrial sharing service platform for the field of artificial intelligence and robotics in Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei, which can provide support for small and medium-sized enterprises such as technology sharing, site sharing, equipment sharing, and talent sharing, and carry out non-standard product customization, prototype trial production of achievement transformation and production of the first set of products.
The total construction area of the shared factory is 1170,000 square meters, 800 sets of software and hardware equipment, more than 1,000 R&D and production professionals, with an annual production capacity of 2,000 sets of robot products. Wang Mengzhao, general manager of Tangshan Baichuan Innovation Technology Service, the construction party of Tangshan Robot Sharing Factory Project, said that small and medium-sized enterprises have modern production lines and a team of 1,000 people overnight, and it is not a fantasy to share factories.

In the Tangshan Robot Exhibition and Experience Center, not far from the shared factory, the integrated all-drug robot smart pharmacy runs in an orderly manner, and the robot "pharmacist" shuttles between the medicine shelves, and a drug prescription can be completed in one round trip. This robot product comes from an asset-light operation enterprise with only more than 200 square meters of office space and a team of 20 people - Tangshan Shengqun Technology***
The company's procurement volume is limited, there is no advantage, through the sharing of factories can be purchased high-quality and low-cost products; It is difficult to find a cooperative factory for single-piece and small-batch processing and manufacturing, and it is desirable to process one piece in a shared factory; There are many personalized needs in product sales, delivery and other links, and the shared factory can be one-stop and all-round solution. Zhang Xijia, general manager of Tangshan Shengqun Technology, said that with the help of the shared factory, the products were quickly launched and introduced to the market, and the company's output value will exceed 10 million yuan in 2023.
Dreams become reality, and financial support is needed. Tangshan High-tech Zone arranges a budget of 20 million yuan every year to support shared manufacturing. An Haitao, deputy director of the Management Committee of Tangshan High-tech Zone, said: "Eligible enterprises can apply for a 'creation coupon' of up to 100,000 yuan per year for production activities such as trial production of product prototypes, processing of the first set of first batches, product inspection and testing. ”
In Wang Mengzhao's view, the robot sharing factory can not only solve the problems of insufficient processing and manufacturing capacity of small and medium-sized robot enterprises and large capital occupation of plant equipment, but also improve the local industry matching rate of robot enterprises and attract foreign robot enterprises to land.
With the help of the shared factory, Tangshan's robot industry has achieved large-scale development, full-category layout, and multi-scenario application. Up to now, the number of robot enterprises in Tangshan has reached 151, an increase of 76 from the beginning of 2023. In 2023, the city's robot industry will achieve an operating income of 6.7 billion yuan. (Reporter Liu Taoxiong, Wang Lu) ** Xinhua News Agency.
