Forecast: Development Opportunities and Trends of Industrial Robots in 2020

With the continuous maturity of robotics technology, the accuracy of robots is getting higher and higher, coupled with the increase in the connectivity of the Internet of Things, making robots a key player in the digital transformation of the industry. According to IFR, the global industrial robot inventory will reach 300,000 units by 2020, and the world's robot inventory will be 182,800 units in 2016, which means that the robot market will maintain a 14% growth rate in the coming years.
In recent years, due to the influence of labor cost and population structure, the robotics industry in Asia has grown rapidly and China has become the world's largest robot market. According to the International Robot Federation (IFR), 1.7 million new industrial robots will be applied to factories around the world by 2020.
Industrial robots are the infrastructure for achieving flexible automation. More and more flexible robotic products meet the needs of factories and are conducive to accelerating the response of companies to the market. In 2017, the global robot market maintained a strong growth trend. According to the report, the number of robots installed in Australia and Australia increased by 21%, the supply of robots in the Americas increased by 16%, and Europe increased by 8%.

The five markets of global industrial robots
Last year, the global robot market was mainly distributed in five countries: China, South Korea, Japan, the United States, and Germany. These five countries accounted for three quarters of the global robot market.
China - The world's largest robot market, sales reached 87,000 units in 2016, close to the combined sales of 97,300 units in Europe and the Americas. In addition. China’s local robot supplier status has been continuously improved and its market share has reached 31%.
Korea - The second largest industrial robot market in the world, sold 41400 robots in 2016, an increase of 8% over 2015. South Korea is the leader in the liquid crystal display and memory chip manufacturing market, and South Korea has increased the investment in robotics in the electrical and electronics industries. In Korea's manufacturing industry, about 630 robots are installed per 10,000 employees, making it the highest density robot in the world.
Japan - In 2016, industrial robots sold 38,600 units, an increase of 10%, which is Japan's highest level in ten years. Japan is a major robot manufacturing country. In order to meet the increasing demand for industrial robots, Japanese robot plants are constantly increasing their production capacity. In 2016, the output reached 152,600 units (the output in 2010 was 73,900 units), which is half of the total supply of robots in the world.
US - In 2016, sales of industrial robots reached 31,400 units, an increase of 14% over 2015. In order to improve the competitiveness of the industry, the United States continues to develop automated production, through preferential policies to bring foreign manufacturing back to the mainland and increase intra-productive investment, creating a good market environment for robots. The density of robots in the United States is 1,261 units per 10,000 employees. After South Korea, most robots in the United States are imported from Japan, South Korea, and Europe.
Germany - the fifth largest robot market in the world, is also the largest one in the European market. The annual supply and stock of industrial robots for 2016 accounted for 36% and 41% of the total sales of robots in Europe. The number of robots sold in 2016 was 2,039 units, a slight increase from 19,945 units in 2015.
Industrial robot industry opportunities and trends
Industry 4.0 is a link between the actual factory and the virtual world, through the use of digital technology to make production more transparent, improve production efficiency and reduce the cost of production, to meet the market demand for small-batch customization, this trend becomes more and more in the global manufacturing industry. The more important it is. Industry 4.0 involves a number of technologies, including robots, artificial intelligence, 3D printing, Internet of Things, cloud computing, big data, virtual reality, and more.
With the breakthrough of these cutting-edge technologies, problems such as system complexity and data incompatibility will also be overcome, and robots will be better integrated into the factory automation system network. Cloud robot will be a new trend in the future. After the robot is connected to the network, it collects various data through sensors, such as speed, acceleration, and angle, and compares and analyzes the robot's data at different positions to predict the robot's condition.
This predictive analysis can be used to improve production and machine maintenance, through the lack of data analysis machine production lines, further improve the optimization of the production process; at the same time can predict the point of machine failure, advance equipment maintenance, thereby reducing the risk of downtime, companies can take this The service operates as a specialized service.
For many SMEs, procurement robots have become a burden, coupled with the instability of orders, unable to form long-term plans. Therefore, some robot manufacturers consider the leasing model to provide factories with robots and maintenance services.
Also, robots are becoming more and more simplistic. For companies without technical engineers, easy-to-program robots are what they need, and simplified robots are easier to develop smart manufacturing solutions. Easy-to-use robots can be easily integrated into the production process, allowing industrial robots to be deployed in many industries to maintain efficient and flexible production.
