BEIJING, Aug. 4 (Xinhua) -- China’s first robot for assembling building components rolled off the production line in east China’s Jiangsu Province, Science and Technology Daily reported Wednesday.
Developed by China Railway Science &Industry Group Co., Ltd and China Railway Construction Engineering Group, the robot is planned to be used for the construction of a metro line in Guangzhou.
Equipped with 72 sensors and 50 cameras, the robot is 80 meters long, with a weight of 460 tonnes and an effective span of 69 meters. It can install beams weighing up to 120 tonnes.
