China's industrial robot installation accounts for over 50% of the global market share (new data highlights) | Robotics | Global
The reporter recently learned from the 2023 World Robotics Conference that in 2022, China's industrial robot installation accounted for over 50% of the world's total, firmly ranking as the world's largest industrial robot market, with a manufacturing robot density of 392 units per 10000 workers.
Robots are an important component of the modern industrial system and a key tool for the transformation of economic and social intelligence. They will drive human society to accelerate into the era of intelligence.
It is reported that in recent years, the scale of China's robotics industry has continued to grow. In 2022, the operating income of the robotics industry exceeded 170 billion yuan, maintaining double-digit growth. The production of industrial, service, and special robots has grown rapidly; The brand strength continues to strengthen, with 273 specialized and innovative "little giant" enterprises in the field of robotics, and 10 robotics enterprises growing into single champions in the manufacturing industry; The market application is accelerating its expansion, and services and special robots are achieving large-scale applications in logistics, medical, construction and other fields.
Currently, robots exhibit development characteristics such as human-machine integration, virtual real integration, intelligent driving, and ubiquitous interaction, and the industry is gradually approaching the critical point of transformation and leap. It is understood that China has the world's largest robot market and the richest application scenarios. In the next step, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology will deepen the "Robot+" application action, accelerate the popularization and promotion of mature scenarios, and encourage exploration in emerging fields; Strengthen coordination between central and local governments, and jointly cultivate world-class robot industry clusters and application demonstration bases.
