Intel gets waiver after worries fuzzy US ban on foreign-made robots may hit fabs
摘要
美国联邦通信委员会对外国制造机器人的禁令引发困惑，英特尔出于谨慎申请并获豁免，以确保其美国芯片工厂可继续使用特定机器人车辆。FCC于10月22日发布命令，允许英特尔在美国半导体制造设施中继续使用相关外国制造机器人，期限为一年。涉事机器人系沿轨道或预设路径运行的自动导引车，常用于仓库和工厂内搬运物料。
US chip champion Intel was so confused by the US government ban on foreign-made robots that it requested and received a waiver “out of an abundance of caution.” The tech company wanted to make sure that it could continue using certain robotic vehicles in its US chip fabs.
The uncertainty surrounding the Federal Communications Commission ban on certain foreign-made robots was revealed in the agency’s decision to grant Intel’s waiver request. On October 22, the FCC published its order allowing Intel to continue using the foreign-made robots in US semiconductor manufacturing facilities for a period of one year.
The robots in question are automated guided vehicles operating on “tracks or predefined paths” while often requiring operator oversight, according to Intel’s website. They help to move materials and items around within warehouses and factory floors.
