On October 30th, the 2019 International Service Robotics and Special Robots Summit opened in Beijing. Song Xiaogang, executive vice president of the China Machinery Industry Federation, pointed out that the national level attaches great importance to the overall planning of robot development. The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology is currently organizing research on the Chinese robot industry. Development plan for 2035. Recently, with the support of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, relevant departments have conducted intensive research in the southwest, northeast, pearl, and Yangtze River Delta for nearly two months.
It is reported that in 2017, China has released the “Robot Industry Development Plan”. At that time, the Chinese robot market was hot, and a large number of enterprises poured into the robot industry, and the industry maintained rapid growth. However, the situation changed in 2018, the growth rate of the robot industry in China and the world slowed down, and the industry was full of anxiety. What is the current status of the Chinese robot industry?
At present, China’s robot market has entered a period of rapid growth. It has become the world’s largest industrial robot application market for six consecutive years. The demand potential of service robots is huge, the application scenarios of special robots have expanded significantly, the localization of core components has been accelerating, and a large number of innovative enterprises have emerged. Some technologies have already formed large-scale products. Song Xiaogang, executive vice president of the China Machinery Industry Federation, said that from 2010 to 2017, the Chinese robot market has maintained a growth rate of more than 35%, and for the first time last year, there was a negative growth of 3.75%.
The Chinese robot market suddenly has a turning point, which is due to the decline of the automobile and 3C industries. At present, the investment and financing of robots has cooled down, and the industry has begun to become rational. Chinese robots are moving from high-speed growth to a stage of stable development.
