The development of global robots has entered the era of intelligence

The global robot industry originated in the early exploration before the 50s of the 20th century, the birth and initial development of industrial robots from the 50s to the 60s, the rapid growth from the 70s to the 80s, the diversification from the 90s to the beginning of the 21st century, the rise of intelligent robots in the 21st century and wide application in many fields, from the initial simple mechanical device gradually evolved into an intelligent body that integrates a variety of advanced technologies, rich functions and penetrates into all aspects of human life and production, profoundly changing the global economy. Social pattern and people's lifestyle.

The overall number of industrial robot installations worldwide has increased

Since 2011, global industrial robots have developed rapidly; According to the "2024 Global Robot" report released by IFR (International Federation of Industrial Robots), in 2022, the global installation of industrial robots will reach a record high of 553,000 units; In 2023, the annual installation of industrial robots worldwide will decrease by 2% year-on-year. As of 2023, 4.28 million industrial robots are in operation worldwide.

Asia is the world's largest market for industrial robots, and its market share continues to grow, with 72% of the world's newly installed industrial robots located in Asia/Australia in 2023. Among them, China is the largest installation country, and the proportion of newly installed industrial robots in the world will reach 51% in 2023.

The demand for service robots continues to grow

According to the data of the "2024 Global Robot Report", the global sales of consumer service robots will increase by 1% year-on-year in 2023, and the sales of professional service robots will exceed 200,000 units for the first time; Among them, the sales of professional service robots are mainly transportation and logistics robots, reception robots, medical robots, professional cleaning robots, agricultural robots and maintenance and inspection robots.

In the field of service robots, the United States has the largest number of manufacturers, according to the "2024 Global Robot Report" data, in 2023, the United States will have a total of 199 service robot manufacturers, ranking first; The number of service robot manufacturers in China ranks second; The top 10 regions by the number of service robot manufacturers in the world are Germany, Japan, France, Canada, Switzerland, the United Kingdom and the Netherlands.
