Two years ago, the yellow robots shuttling in an orderly manner to deliver packages to designated locations attracted widespread attention in China.
Some of the robots are developed by Hikvision. They use cameras and QR codes for precise positioning, infrared and ultrasonic obstacle avoidance, and the reading accuracy is more than 99.99%.
The reading speed is less than 1 second. When it is out of power, it can be automatically charged like a sweeping robot. It can be fully charged for up to 1.5 hours and can work continuously for 8 hours.
Now, Hikvision has developed an automatic battery replacement station, which has become a one-stop battery replacement center for sorting robots for 7 * 24 uninterrupted operations.
According to Hikvision, the battery replacement device adopts a modular design and consists of two parts: a power exchange warehouse and a battery warehouse. It can quickly complete the automatic replacement of the mobile robot battery without manual intervention.
Compared with the original robot charging that takes 1.5 hours, replacing the battery takes just 2 minutes.
It is worth mentioning that during the battery replacement process, the robot keeps power on and can maintain normal communication with the upper system. After the power exchange is completed, you will return to work without interrupting your business.
Moreover, in the past, it was necessary to prepare 15% -20% more robots for charging rotation. After the automatic battery replacement is enabled, only 15% -20% of batteries need to be prepared for power conversion rotation, and the cost is greatly reduced.
