2023-12-08
November 10, 2023 - ABB Robotics and Porsche Management Consulting have announced a pilot partnership to develop innovative applications for automation in modular home manufacturing and drive automation in the construction industry.
The partnership will focus on key processes in modular home manufacturing, including the production, assembly, transportation and installation of modular components.ABB Robotics will provide its leading-edge robotics solutions, including welding robots, handling robots and painting robots. Porsche Management Consulting will provide its expertise in planning and operating modern plants.
The two companies hope to achieve the following goals through this partnership:
Increase efficiency and accuracy in modular home manufacturing
Reduce production costs
Improve building quality
Reduce the environmental impact of construction
The construction industry is labor-intensive and faces labor shortages and a lack of building supply. In addition, the traditional construction industry has an injury rate that is four times higher than other industries, and the environment in which construction workers work is less than desirable.
Automation technology can effectively address these challenges in the construction industry. Through automation, construction companies can increase productivity, reduce reliance on labor, improve building quality, and improve the safety and working environment of construction workers.
The partnership between ABB Robotics and Porsche Management Consulting is an important step in the process of automation in the construction industry. The partnership will provide reliable and efficient automation solutions to help construction companies meet current challenges and achieve sustainable growth.
The following are the specific implications of this partnership:
Meeting market demand: As the global population grows and urbanization accelerates, the demand for housing is increasing. Automation technology can help construction companies improve productivity and meet market demand.
Improve efficiency: Automation can help construction companies improve productivity and reduce costs. It is estimated that through automation, construction companies can increase productivity by 30%-50%.
Improve quality: Automation can help construction companies improve product quality and reduce the rate of defective products.
Improve safety: Automation can help construction companies improve the safety environment and reduce injury rates.
Overall, the collaboration between ABB Robotics and Porsche Management Consulting will have a positive impact on the construction industry, driving it towards automation, efficiency and sustainability.
