In 2014 a new record was set with about 100,000 newly installed robot units \u2013 \u00a0an increase of 43 percent compared to 2013. This boom has been fuelled by new production capacities in emerging markets and a wave of modernisation sweeping through established auto-making countries. A large proportion of robotics technology in 2014 was purchased by suppliers of electronic components to the automotive industry. These include battery manufacturers and car IT enterprises. In 2014 the electrical\/electronics sector likewise posted a new record \u2013 sales increased by 34 percent compared to the previous year. The strong demand for industrial robots in the production of consumer electronics, communication equipment as well as computer and medical technology adds up to a total global market share of 21 percent. The wave of digital transformation and automation will continue to drive the triumphant march of industrial robots onwards up to 2018. &#8220;Industry 4.0&#8221; projects mean that human-robot teams, for example, are on the cusp of a break-through. Simplification of the use of robots will additionally open up the market for new applications. This is equally true of small and medium-sized companies as it is for large corporations in all sectors. Besides the automotive and electronics industries, this development is also being increasingly felt in the metal processing, plastics, food and packaging industries.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_19426\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"width: 690px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-19426 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/www.expo21xx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/industrial-robots-forecast.jpg\" alt=\"annual supply industrial robots\" width=\"690\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.expo21xx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/industrial-robots-forecast.jpg 690w, https:\/\/www.expo21xx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/industrial-robots-forecast-149x86.jpg 149w, https:\/\/www.expo21xx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/industrial-robots-forecast-350x203.jpg 350w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 690px) 100vw, 690px\" \/><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Total annual supply of industrial robots shows asia will grow above average <br \/> <em>Source: International Federation of Robotics<\/em><\/p><\/div>\n<p>According to IFR the total market volume of industrial robotics including services had been almost 30 billion Euros in 2014, it is estimated that by 2018 the total revenues will surpass 50 billion Euros.<\/p>\n<p>For further information please visit:\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ifr.org\/\" target=\"_blank\">www.ifr.org<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In 2014 the global market for industrial robots increased by 56%, until 2018 world wide sales of industrial robots will reach 400,000 units (230,000 in 2015) according to the latest report of [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":19427,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[312,518,12,326],"class_list":["post-19349","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-automation-robotics","tag-automotive","tag-automotive-industry","tag-industrial-robots","tag-robotics-industry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.8.1 -
