China News Service, Shanghai, November 2 (Reporter Liu Changzhong) China National Development and Reform Commission, General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine, ChinaindustryThe Ministry of Information Technology and the National Certification and Accreditation Administration issued the “China Robot” certification mark to the world on the 2nd, and issued the first batch of Chinese robot product certification certificates, which marked the official establishment and implementation of the robot testing and certification system in China.

This is the information obtained by the reporter from the 2016 “International Robot Testing and Certification Summit Forum” held in Shanghai that day.

Zhang Qinrong, deputy director of the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine, said in his speech that the establishment of robot standards, testing and certification systems is to implement the strategy of strengthening the country by quality and manufacturing, and promote the realization of China’s manufacturing to China’s creation, China’s speed to China’s quality, and Chinese products to China. An important measure of the brand’s “three transformations”. AQSIQ and CNCA will work with the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and other departments to jointly promote the institutionalization and standardization of China’s robot testing and certification work, and give full play to the quality and technical foundation of standard testing and certification in the Robot Industry. To enhance China’s core competitiveness and international discourse power in the field of high-end equipment manufacturing.

“China Robot” certification will become the quality mark of Chinese-made and Chinese-created robot products, helping China’s robot quality control and independent innovation capabilities to improve, boosting the progress and upgrading of the robot industry, and enhancing China’s development of global robot industry standards and conformity assessment procedures. voice and international competitiveness.

In recent years, China’s robot industry has developed rapidly and has become the world’s largest robot market. Data show that in 2015, China’s Industrial robot output was 32,996 units (including foreign brands), a year-on-year increase of 21.7%; from January to September this year, it continued to maintain rapid growth, with output reaching 50,900 units, a year-on-year increase of 30.8%, a year-on-year growth rate over last year. About 9 percentage points higher, the average annual growth rate will be much higher than the national industrial and equipment manufacturing growth rate. However, compared with the advanced countries in the world, the development of China’s robot industry is still in its infancy, the standards and testing and certification systems are not yet perfect, the necessary technical thresholds and market guidance methods are lacking, the overall competitiveness of the industry is low, and the overall quality level needs to be improved urgently.

The theme of this forum is “Standard Testing and Certification, Helping Industry Development”. (Finish)
