Mr. Song Tianhu, Chairman of the Supervisory Committee - final report

The conference got very overwhelming response and there are more than 300 participants in this meeting. Experts conducted in-depth discussions and exchanges on the key technologies and applications of robot welding. At present, the global robot market is constantly expanding, and the international robot manufacturers are increasing their research and development efforts. In the future, the application of welding robots in China will surely enter into a new period of development and flourish.

  

Professor Huang Shisheng, the famous welding expert and former leader of SCUT, and some young and middle-aged backbone teachers from our school participated in the forum. They fully communicated with domestic and foreign welding peers and enhanced mutual understanding. It has laid a good foundation to promote the cooperation between our school and relevant enterprises in the future.
