Chinese robot industry - "Manufacturing crown jewel top"

 2013, Chinese industrial robot sales 37,000 units surpassed Japan to become the world's largest market for industrial robots. In academicians General Assembly June 9, 2014 on the State President Xi Jinping he said, "robot revolution" is expected to become a "third industrial revolution" an entry point and an important growth point, will affect the global manufacturing landscape. He added that the robot is "the top of the crown jewel of manufacturing", the R & D, manufacturing and application is a measure of a country's scientific and technological innovation and high-end manufacturing level of an important symbol. This is by far, the central leaders of the industrial development of robotics most direct and clear position and support.

 Domestic robotics industry big but not strong

Chinese robotics industry environment is good, but the problem still facing deep-rooted. Data from the International Robot League show, robot sales in 2014 of up to 56,000 units, up 54 percent surge. This is the second consecutive year, China became the world's largest consumer of the robot.

But the drawback is that although China's robot sales ranked first in the world, but in this robot among tens of thousands, there are more than 7 percent from abroad. Japan, North America and Europe is the main export areas of the robot. Thousands of domestic robots enterprises are located in the purchase of foreign robot body, system integration and industrial applications. Among them, reducer, servo motor, control system which accounts for three core total cost of Qi Cheng robot. Reducer, the domestic production of high precision gear can not, no price advantage, there are several companies in the low part localization; servo motor connection, from 8 to 10 independent research and development and a body motion control system integration capabilities, but the domestic Compare prices overseas motor price advantage is not, and poor performance. Key components market conditions and technology gap with foreign countries

Robotics industry chain integration huge potential

On the current situation, the domestic robot manufacturers have been fully aware of these problems, and in some innovative companies have begun under the leadership of China's robot industry breakthrough. Many domestic robot manufacturers are beginning to move form their own core technology, key components, industry-leading products and system solutions for the integration of a complete industrial chain in that direction. Some experts suggested that the layout of some industrial robot business areas not yet fully developed. Lu inter-linked that the traditional fields of automobile, etc., have been occupied by foreign brands, domestic enterprises should focus on the development of general manufacturing, such as metal processing, rubber and plastics, ceramics, food and pharmaceutical industries.

In addition, some domestic manufacturers have begun to try through horizontal integration of industrial chain, together with other parts manufacturers, itself focused on the research and development of downstream applications, robot machine; others by their own advantages in the component aspects of vertical integration, zero parts self-sufficiency, to cost and channel market advantage; some companies located in the integrators, with proven solutions sales machine. Industry experts believe that although the overall needs of the Chinese market is far from saturated robot, but fierce competition has depressed product margins, and the whole production areas has been the influx of too many speculators, too much confusion. Take the whole production and application system development road of combining, it is a direction to increase the competitiveness of enterprises.

Joint development of the industry with a bright future

In fact, the robotics industry as a national strategy, or to avoid disunity type of development, adhere to the socialist road with Chinese characteristics development. Countries can grasp the overall planning, while the robot industry as a whole and core components are classified research, combined with the existing robot research strength, strict points system, promote the industry's technology sharing, and the latest research results, and to avoid duplication of research , saving development time, so there will be conducive to the overall industrial research and development. As long as planned, rational distribution, such collectivization industrial revitalization of the road is the most suitable for China's national conditions, and to achieve leapfrog development.

Is expected to 2017, global industrial robotics market capacity will reach 270 billion, global service robot market capacity of nearly 50 billion, according to IFR data, 2012 global personal (or family) service robot market with a capacity of 7.3 billion yuan, public service robot market capacity of 20.8 billion yuan. Accordingly view public service robot industry has been walking in front of a larger market capacity.

China Electronics Fair stunning debut robot exhibition

On 11-13 November 2015 at the Shanghai New International Expo Center 86th China Electronics Fair fully demonstrate the whole industry chain of the electronics industry, show covering RC components, connectors, semiconductor discrete devices, integrated circuits, instrumentation, electronic devices, embedded systems, smart home, a passenger with intelligent hardware, automotive electronics and intelligent cars, robot key components and integrated solutions, robotics, intelligent electronic manufacturing equipment and industrial automation. Robot exhibition will bring together community of experts, business leaders and industry veterans together to explore innovative technologies and opportunities for development of intelligent terminal manufacturers.
