Eco-friendly and intelligent exhibits take center stage
An exhibit
featuring cutting-edge technology at last year’s event.
Kawasaki’s intelligent manufacturing equipment is displayed at the 2017 expo.
In order to host a unique, eco-friendly and intelligent expo this year, organizers of the 2018 China Import Expo and exhibitors will provide new head-turning features and facilities to wow visitors.
One star of the show will be a cutting-edge humanoid robot which has never been displayed outside Japan.
Another example at this year’s expo — which is also known as CIE — is exhibitor Kangbeike Equipment (Kunshan) Co.
It will provide an innovative garbage collection device to users, which not only collects different kinds of drink cans and plastic bottles, but also recycles printed coupons.
In addition to many ecofriendly devices, environmental equipment is one of the key displays at the 2018 CIE’s intelligent manufacturing exhibition area.
Emerson In Sink Erator, the leading international hightech garbage disposal unit maker, will showcase its products at CIE.
The company’s food processors grind food waste into small particles using advanced technology, allowing it to be discharged through sewage pipelines.
The product can solve the problems related to kitchen waste treatment for families, including kitchen garbage cleaning and sorting.
The company’s instant hot water system provides healthy and high-quality drinking water. Its instant hot water dispensers provide near-boiling water right at the sink, which can be used for making coffee and tea.
Also being showcased at CIE are environmental equipment and technologies in the sectors of air pollution treatment, water pollution control, disposal of solid waste, and ecological restoration and protection.
Organizers said these products are in great demand from manufacturers.
Robotic products will be another highlight of this year’s expo, with one of the stars on display being a humanoid robot.
The robot has the shape and appearance of a middleaged man. Standing 175 centimeters tall and weighing 80 kilograms, it was created by Kawasaki, the world-leading robot manufacturing company based in Japan.
Organizers said it will be the first time for the robot to go on display outside its home country.
The robot is made of a cutting-edge material, which cannot easily be destroyed in hazardous situations including fire and in environments contaminated by high levels of radiation.
The developer of the robot aims to expand its scope for potential applications, to help human beings to deal with various tasks in extreme conditions.
In the future, the robot is expected to work in environments dangerous for human beings, including workplaces where there is radiation or high temperatures.
The robot can also wear firefighters protective clothing to provide rescue services at disaster-hit spots.
Another four models of Kawasaki’s latest robots — the RS007, du Aro, CX210 and CP700 units, whose mass production began in last November — will be showcased at the China Import Expo later this month in Kunshan.
