National Manufacturing Fund To Invest in Industrial Robot Factory

Recently, Luoshi Robot shareholders and main members have changed. According to the disclosure, the new shareholder of Luoshi Robot is the National Manufacturing transformation and upgrading Fund, Nanchang New Century Venture Capital Co., Ltd. withdrew from the ranks of shareholders, and the registered capital of the company increased from about 8.35 million yuan to about 9.3 million yuan.

Luoshi robot was founded in 2015. According to the introduction, the word "Luoshi" comes from Lao Tzu's Tao Te Ching "do not want to be like jade, and Luoluo is like stone", which means that you do not want to be a gorgeous jade, but to be a hard rock.

Luoshi Robot's products cover large-load industrial robots and collaborative robots. It has its own factory in Shandong with an annual production capacity of more than 20,000 units, and a research team from well-known universities at home and abroad with a master's degree or above accounting for more than 80%. So far, it has obtained more than 300 R&D patents and technology awards at home and abroad.

Some time ago, Shandong TV's "Brand Shandong" column walked into Luoshi Robot Shandong Intelligent Manufacturing Industrial Park, showing you the new robot intelligent manufacturing future factory, and presenting the scene of robot artificial robots in front of the audience.

Established in November 2019, the National Manufacturing Transformation and Upgrading Fund Co., Ltd. was initiated by 20 shareholders including the Ministry of Finance, CDB Capital Co., LTD., and China Tobacco Corp., focusing on strategic investment in enterprises in the fields of new materials, next-generation information technology, high-end equipment manufacturing, industrial robots, core components and components. Layout of related manufacturing leading enterprises.

Manufacturing Fund has also participated in the establishment of a number of sub-funds, including Shenzhen Venture Capital Manufacturing transformation and upgrading New Materials Fund (limited partnership), Hubei High-quality Development Industry Investment Fund Partnership (limited partnership), Chongqing Manufacturing Transformation and upgrading Private Equity Investment Fund Partnership (limited partnership), etc.

National manufacturing fund in the field of manufacturing equipment frequently, especially "favor" industrial machines and robots and other high-end fields, Estun and other domestic industrial robot head companies have been one of the national manufacturing fund layout projects.

Traditional manufacturing industry is the main body of China's manufacturing industry, is the basis of the modern industrial system, industrial robots are an important tool to promote the digital and intelligent transformation of manufacturing industry. China is a big manufacturing country, but also a big industrial robot, according to the German "Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung" reported that in 2022, China installed 290,000 new industrial robots, more than the rest of the world combined.

Although after the start of 2023, industrial robots ushered in a cooling, but from the overall situation of the major manufacturers throughout the year, the pressure of the robot industry in the first half of the year was released, the demand for industrial robots gradually recovered in the second half of the year, and the major manufacturers found the familiar profit rhythm.

According to the 2023 World Robotics Report released by the IFR International Federation of Robotics, China is by far the largest market in the world, with more than 290,000 units installed annually and breaking the growth record set in 2021 with a 5% growth; Japan is close behind, with 50,413 units installed annually, but Japan is the world's leading robot manufacturer, accounting for 46% of global robot production.

Factories around the world are accelerating the use of robots, with the new global average robot density hitting a record high of 151 robots per 10,000 employees, three times more than a decade ago. China's robot density has also reached 392, ranking fifth after South Korea (1,012 units), Singapore (730 units), Germany (415 units) and Japan (397 units).

For the development of industrial robots, the state has always attached great importance. On January 18, 2023, 17 departments including the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology issued the "Robot +" application action Implementation Plan, aiming to double the density of robots in the manufacturing industry by 2025 compared with 2020, and significantly enhance the ability of robots to promote high-quality economic and social development.

Shanghai, as one of the important places for industrial robots in China, has become the country's first robot density nanoscale city. At present, the smart factory evaluation rate of Shanghai has exceeded 70% of the city's industrial enterprises, and Pudong, Jiading, Songjiang and other areas have achieved 100% full coverage, and the density of key industrial robots has reached 383 units / 10,000 people.

Shanghai has become the largest intelligent manufacturing system integrated solutions export and intelligent manufacturing core equipment industry cluster area, intelligent manufacturing system integrated industry output value exceeded 60 billion yuan, intelligent manufacturing equipment industry scale exceeded 100 billion yuan, has built a total of 19 national-level smart factories, 100 municipal smart factories. It has completed the promotion and application of more than 1,000 intelligent manufacturing scenarios, and the production efficiency of smart factories in Shanghai has increased by more than 50% on average, the operating cost has decreased by more than 30% on average, and the energy consumption per unit of added value has decreased by 13.8%.

The national team's entering industrial robots have released a positive signal in the industry, and in the future, industrial robots will continue to benefit from the upgrading of the manufacturing industry and will remain high in the long run.
