Both unit shipment and the sales revenue are expected to witness nearly 10% CAGRs over the coming period of 2016-2022. With advantages of increasing productivity and reducing the occurrenc...
As major forms of industrial robots, articulated robots take most of the share in global fast-growing industrial robots market. Both the unit shipment and the sales revenue of articulated robots are forecast to grow at two-digit CAGRs throughout 2016-2021. Strongest drivers of the rapid growth will be the automotive industry followed by the electronics industry. Emerging economics are contributing greatly to the growth and gaining an increasing share in global articulated industrial robot...
Cartesian robots, also called rectilinear or gantry robots, provide quick and accurate solutions for several different industrial applications. The recent years have seen a much higher compound annual growth rate (CAGR) in Cartesian industrial robots than the worldwide average economic growth rate, and the trend will remain in the coming years up to 2021. Rising demand for Cartesian robots in various industrial manufactures is expected to drive the market growth continuously over the comi...
SCARA robots are Selective Compliance Assembly Robot Arms, and commonly used in most industrial end-users for applications such as assembling, pick-and-place, and loading and unloading operations. Global SCARA robots market in terms of sales revenue is expected to grow at over 8% annually over the coming 2016-2021 years. Strongest drivers of the market growth will be the electronics industry followed by the automotive industry. Despite the competition challenges from other industrial robo...
As a rare type of industrial robots, Cylindrical robots are facing increasing competition and substitution thread from other types of industrial robots such as articulated robots, Cartesian robots, and SCARA robots which are much more prevalent in the industrial applications. The global Cylindrical robots market is expected to see a very mild growth over the forecasting 2016-2021 period. Unless the technological advancements creates new applications or more efficient cylindrical robots, t...
Driven by continuous installation increase in automotive manufacture, electrical and electronics industry, as well as fast growing applications in other industrial production, global annual demand for industrial robots is expected to reach 553,000 units in 2020 to set up a new history high. Consequently, the operational stock of industrial robots is forecast to grow at a 2015-2020 CAGR of 12.3%, which will increase the industrial robots in use from 1.658 million units in 2015 to a new pea...
Service robotics will show far more disruptive effects on the competitiveness of non-manufacturing industries and the growth in these areas over the coming decade will be much more dramatic. Although accounting for a small fraction in terms of total sales volume of service robots, professional applications of service robots grab over 65% of the total sales revenue generated from service robots. Professional service robots will continue to dominate the service robot market, with medical ro...
World domestic service robots, including both personal and household service robotics, have witnessed a steady growth in the recent years owing to the wider awareness/acceptance of robotics applications, increasing cost for human service labor, and continuous technological advancement. Global total sales revenue of household and personal service robots is forecast to grow by 23.5% per annum in the coming 2015-2020 period. Global Domestic Service Robots Market – Size and Trends to 2020 e...
