A state-of-the-art survey of the robotics applied for the power industry in China

摘要

This paper gives an instruction of the robotics applied for power industry in China. Firstly, it is the instruction of the actuality of the electric power industry in China. And we introduce the robotics applied in the field of the power generator, for different application requirements, include generator detection robot, robot in nuclear power station and for the hydropower station detection. Then robotics for overhead transmission line detection and maintenance was been shown. The substation patrol robotics has implemented widespread in most province electric power companies in China. live working robot for the distributing line maintenance have been in some filed application. As the big market, more robots will applied for the electronic power industry, with the development of the robotics and the new work mode of people and robot.
