Intelligent Robots Take on Tough Tasks in Substation Inspection

Substations are an integral and critically important part of any electrical generation, transmission and distribution system which usually located in remote area with harsh environment. With the development of social economy, the inspection work of substation is getting increasingly heavy. Equipment inspection and repair is an important work of substation duty. However, due to the large number and the high density of the equipments in the substaion, it takes more than 2 hours to finish one manual inspection of a large station. Also, manual inspection is very easy to lead to omissions of inspection work, lack of technical supervision means, slow transmission of inspection information and standard inspection process can not be effectively implemented, etc..

At present, substation equipment inspection mainly relies on manual inspection. Due to the constraints of climate conditions, environmental factors and personnel quality, the quality of inspection can not be guaranteed. At the same time, manual inspection can not timely feed back the information of equipment running status and defects. The traditional inspection management method is also difficult to effectively supervise the inspection personnel, easily resulting in equipment accidents caused by the neglect of duty of the inspection personnel.

Therefore, in order to ensure the smooth conduct of line and equipment inspection and reduce unnecessary economic losses, the call for reforming the traditional backward inspection method is getting higher and higher. How to supervise the inspection personnel‘s performance and standardize inspection work management has become a common concern and urgent problem for power grid managers.

5 reasons to use robotics in industrial inspection

Image
1. Robots help to reduce the labor cost of the inspection, which on average accounts for about 40% of total inspection cost.  2. Inspection robots help improve safety by helping people to avoid harsh environments and scenarios and using robotic technology to perform manual inspection work.  3. Inspection robots help to reduce the time required for inspections by reducing the number of people who have to be involved in the process (reduced man-hours).  4. Enhanced analytics enables organizations to create digital consistency with physical space and processes, and robots can also collect information in real-time and accelerate the analysis process.  5. The use of robotics for industrial inspections also improves access to hard-to-reach and inspected areas through the use of robotics, which has a much smaller and more maneuverable footprint than the need to place a person in a confined space.   As one of the leading robot manufacturers and developers in China, Shenhao is committed to prov
