Ruan Jingwen: | story from veterans to veteran entrepreneurs

Dongguan Ben run robot, Polytron Technologies Inc chairman Ruan Jingwen, often put "always with the party" on the mouth, because his three turning point in life is the response to the party's call!

In 1987, Ruan Jingwen responded to the call of the party to become a soldier. After his retirement, he responded to the call of the state's call to South Shenzhen to become the frontline builder of the reform and opening up. At the turn of the new century, with the rise of the world factory, he participated in the establishment of the plastic hardware electronics factory in Changan.

Nowadays, he responds to the call of China's 2025 strategy and becomes the leader in the development of domestic harmonic reducers.

Once a business: laying the foundation for the two business

The predecessor of the Polytron Technologies Inc is a scientific and technological enterprise dedicated to the design, manufacture, assembly and precision hardware parts processing of automation equipment. The predecessor of the company was founded in 2007, with more than 10 years of design and manufacturing experience in automated integrated projects.

After the financial crisis, Ruan Jingwen and his partner, Xiong Jiapeng, began to find that traditional automation is becoming more and more unable to adapt to the flexible production trend of Global trade, which will eventually lead to intelligent manufacturing represented by robots.

The two start: Aiming at the pain point of robot development

In 2013, Ruan Jingwen and his partner, Xiong Jiapeng, set up the Ben run robot, and took the core components of the harmonic reducer, robot and automation integrated project as the main development orientation of the company, and divided the core business into two pieces, that is, the domestic research and development of the harmonic reducer and the integration of the intelligent manufacturing equipment application system.

Ruan Jingwen: why should we aim at the robotics industry? Because it is also the 2025 strategic call to respond to China's manufacturing. Why should we aim at the harmonic reducer? Because in the past many years, the core parts of the robot's core components have been monopolized by foreign brands for a long time. A Japanese manufacturer buys at least 8000 yuan. According to a six axis robot, it needs to buy 6, cost nearly 50 thousand yuan, and the price of the other parts of an ordinary six axis robot is only a price. Seventy thousand or eighty thousand yuan, so we can see that the speed reducer accounts for the high cost of robot.

A picture of a piece of painting

As an old soldier, Xiong Jiapeng has always wanted to break the foreign monopoly and make more enterprises use the harmonic reducer in China. Although the company has always had the experience of automation integration, because many key technical data are very secret, no trace or even clues can be found on the network. It is no one to seek help from foreign enterprises. Be willing to respond.

"Every painting needs to be groped for itself, and it is also necessary to solve problems when facing bottlenecks. Sometimes the technical difficulties are too late to get across."

In 2013, with the effort of R & D and production team, the first harmonic reducer prototype was finally released. At that time, in order to avoid technical leaks, the R & D team specialized in the production of prototype from the workshop to the employee dormitory, but the effect of them could be disappointed.

No matter the stability, accuracy and service life of robots, they are far from what they imagined.


Chinese enterprises deserve better and more affordable manufacturing in China.

In the next two years, the technology research and development team has experienced numerous losses. In 2015, the technology finally successfully solved the problems of stability, precision and service life. The developed harmonic reducer is in line with the international standards in speed, operation stability, noise control and service life. To the same industry standard products, breaking the international monopoly.

In 2015, the harmonic reducer of the robot was first realized. Because of its good performance, the price is two to 30% cheaper than that of other countries in Japan. It is suitable for small and medium labor-intensive enterprises to meet the demand of short cycle return of short cycle. The order quantity of the harmonic reducer in our robot is growing very fast, only in the last one. In the past month, hundreds of orders from Zhongshan, Dongguan and other places have been received.

Ruan Jingwen: our decelerator, in addition to the advantage of about 20% to 30% of the price, can reach 20 thousand to 30 thousand hours of service life, and Chinese enterprises are worth making with better and more affordable China.


Concept: to "duty" to win ""

From the young man to the army, to the retired factory to work in the South factory, from the executive to the traditional manufacturing plant, and to the development of the core parts of the robot, Ruan Jingwen, a veteran soldier, walked firmly and steadily every step, and talked about his wisdom, and Ruan Jingwen said that every time he had followed the call of the country. Go and follow the development of the times.

At present, the robot industry is in the development of China, Ruan Jingwen dream, in the future, more and more enterprises can use the harmonic reducer produced in China, "by then, the value concept of the enterprise will certainly have a more rich connotation."
