IFR forecast: 2018 industrial robots global sales doubled

2016/7/1      view:
According to the international federation of robotics (IFR) latest forecasts, between 2014 and 2018, global industrial robot sales amount will be nearly doubled to 400000.According to the forecast, to 2018, global sales of an average annual growth of 15%, China is the world's fastest growing regions on the market, 2014 sales growth of 56% over 2013.
Despite China's recent economic recession, according to IFR, its potential is still huge., according to the association of Chinese manufacturing industry currently robot 36 per 10000 staff use only, while South Korea robot in proportion to amount to 478, Japan 315 units, 292 sets of 292 sets of Germany and the United States.According to IFR speculates that by 2018, China's industrial robot new installed capacity will be more than a third.
China and the other four markets (Japan, the United States, South Korea and Germany) accounted for 70% of global robot purchases."Including supporting services, we estimate that in 2014 global market value of $32 billion," President of IFR Arturo Baroncelli said, "the development of the main driving force lies in the industrial production of global competition."
Cars and electrical/electronics continue to dominate the field of industrial robot, a combined 64% market share.Set a new record in 2014, the global auto industry, the installation quantity of 100000 units, up 43% from 2013.Emerging markets triggered a new production facilities, a new upsurge, modern wave swept through existing automobile manufacturing country.

Likewise, electrical/electronics industry set a new record in 2014, sales rose 34%.The business world of today's robots are 21% of the market.


Only last year, the German industrial robot reached its maximum ever purchase quantity - about 20100, 10% growth year on year.German market is far ahead of any other European countries, although it has a high density of robot, IFR expectations in the auto industry to promote the further expanded.
The industrial robot installation number increased by 11% in 2014, a total of about 26000 units.IFR forecast that the market there is a huge growth opportunity, as industrial centers in the United States the rapid development of industrialization.
According to forecast of IFR, until 2018, the digital revolution and wave of automation will continue to promote the development of industrial robots have a rapid development.Industrial 4.0 projects, for example, means that the man-machine team is at the forefront of breakthrough.Easier to use robots will also open up new applications, both for small medium and large enterprises.IFR said, metal processing, plastics, food, packaging and other industries are also increasingly feel the technology change.
