China is far from that of the world's industrialized nations. If China's 10 thousand workers account for less than 30 robots, in South Korea, this figure reaches 437 pieces, and in Japan - 332 pieces. Note that Europe and the US in this respect behind Asian competitors: for every 10,000 workers in Germany is not more than 282 robots, but in the US the number is less than 152 pieces.
However, in any proportion is a catch: since workers in China very much, robots simply are not required, but the total market volume of industrial robots in the country reached $ 9.5 billion ($ 29 billion. Taking into account the application software and accessories). By 2017, China will become the largest consumer of industrial robotics, when the robots count will grow to 428,000 units. So far the largest customer robots remains the automotive industry.
Japanese manufacturers manage to keep the majority of the market of robotics (60%), but the Chinese are aggressively increasing their share (25%), the rest is divided between the European and American manufacturers. Leading manufacturers of robots have already launched their facilities in China: Fanuc, ABB, Kuka and Yaskawa. According to those present in China robot manufacturers, demand for products exceeds their expectations. While 40% of the selling robots are used to build the car, because the local market is the largest in the world both in the volume of production and consumption in terms of volume. Related Products :
