The Robot Maestro (Andrew PETHER, Universal Robots)

<p>Some people still have the outdated image in their heads of China as a country of grim sweatshops and cheap manual labour. In fact, China is the country which boasts the largest number of robots deployed in the world. And that makes it a prime location for one of the newest category of industrial robot: the 'cobot', or collaborative robot.   Today's episode is with Andrew Pether, who has spent a decade in the field of robotics engineering in China, and over eight years working at the global vanguard in the world of collaborative robots: Universal Robots. So he is perfectly placed to observe the world of innovation and competition in this unique space in China.   The episode also includes catch-up interviews with: Michael Kinsey from Season 02 Episode 15 <a href='https://mosaicofchina.com/season-02-episode-25-michael-kinsey'>https://mosaicofchina.com/season-02-episode-25-michael-kinsey</a> and Srinivas Yanamandra from Season 01 Episode 15 <a href='https://mosaicofchina.com/season-01-episode-15-srinivas-yanamandra'>https://mosaicofchina.com/season-01-episode-15-srinivas-yanamandra</a> Chapters 00:00 - Trailer & Intro 01:33 - Part 1 24:12 - Part 2 35:13 - Outro 39:05 - Catch-Up Interview [1] 42:53 - Catch-Up Interview [2] Subscribe to the PREMIUM version, see the visuals, and/or follow the full transcript for this episode at: <a href='https://mosaicofchina.com/season-03-episode-07-andrew-pether'>https://mosaicofchina.com/season-03-episode-07-andrew-pether</a> Join the community: <a href='https://instagram.com/oscology'>Instagram</a> https://instagram.com/oscology <a href='https://www.linkedin.com/company/mosaicofchina'>LinkedIn</a> https://www.linkedin.com/company/mosaicofchina <a href='https://facebook.com/mosaicofchina'>Facebook</a> https://facebook.com/mosaicofchina <a href='https://mosaicofchina.com/wechat'>WeChat</a> https://mosaicofchina.com/wechat </p>
