The robots industry is considered one of the 5 target industries (New S-curve) that the government promotes in the Eastern Special Development Zone (EEC) project. Recently, "Prachachat Turakij" had the opportunity to interview a Thai industrial robot factory. The first one which was recently supported by the Office of the Board of Investment (BOI) at the end of 2018, by "Dr. Pachara Ngow", Managing Director of Unical Works Company Limited (UNiCAL), Phan Thong District, Chonburi Province The company that manufactures and distributes industrial robot arms under the name UNiBOT, a 6-axis robot, has come to tell us about the capabilities of the products that the company produces that are comparable to those of foreign companies. Plus it's cheaper, which is very interesting. Q: What is the origin of the production of robot arms? Previously, the company was engaged in the production of small automotive parts for foreign companies. And started having ideas in production that wanted to make robots with arms and motors, which have been used for a long time. But in Thailand it is produced for research purposes. It is not yet produced for commercial sale in large quantities. The company wants to produce robot arms to sell to industrial factories at an accessible price. Because in the market there are hundreds of brands for sale. The price is quite high and UNiBOT's products may not be the best on the market. But it is considered another option for customers. Q: Strengths that compete with foreign manufacturers After research, development, and design since 2012, until today, the company has developed the product to the point of creating two main strengths.
Customers can choose to customize the functions and conditions they want in UNiBOT. For example, customers can choose whether The company's control panel will be used. or another brand control panel If you choose a control panel that the company produces itself, it will be more flexible due to software development. There are programmers from the company who work in this area. Can be used for a variety of jobs. and responds to specific usage needs, such as wanting more control and movement than general mechanical arms, etc. Including the SI (system integrator) part or designing and installing software systems. that knowledgeable customers can do SI by themselves as well Because the company focuses on producing robots that are fundamentally simple. and provide Email Marketing List opportunities for developers of command systems and accessories such as various handles can be used for further development. 2. Affordable price The price of a robot arm in the general market Usually has a selling price of about 400,000-500,000 baht, but UNiBOT's products are priced at around 300,000-400,000 baht including controller or 30-40% lower than what is available in the market because of the important mechanism we have designed the gear or reduction gear which is an important part in the movement of the robot to create working power Such gears account for 30-40% of the robot's price. which has not a high production cost Q: What products does UNiBOT have? Gear parts are the company's flagship product.
Originally, they were going to hire another company to produce gears. But I can't find someone to produce it in Thailand. In the end, you must invest in machinery and gain knowledge in managing production yourself. As a result, the gear that the company sells has a cheaper price than the market. In this world, there are already many brands of gear. There is already a model on the market. But what the company did was to create the first standard size for use in Thailand. At an affordable price including in the market for robot spare parts Contacting to buy gear will take up to almost 1 year for delivery because there are very few manufacturers. Compared to the number of customers This causes them to have to queue up and wait for production that is determined by old customers who have already ordered in large quantities.
