China’s huge funding in industrial robotics has put the nation within the high rating of robotic density, surpassing america for the primary time. The variety of operational industrial robots relative to the variety of employees hit 322 items per 10,000 workers within the manufacturing business. At the moment, China ranks in fifth place. The world´s high 5 most automated international locations in manufacturing 2021 are: South Korea, Singapore, Japan, Germany and China.

World common of robotic density greater than doubles in comparison with six years in the past (2015: 69 items)

“Robotic density is a key indicator of automation adoption within the manufacturing business all over the world,” says Marina Invoice, President of the Worldwide Federation of Robotics. “The brand new common of world robotic density within the manufacturing business surged to 141 robots per 10,000 workers – greater than double the quantity six years in the past. China’s speedy development reveals the ability of its funding up to now, nevertheless it nonetheless has a lot alternative to automate.”

Robotic density by area

Pushed by the excessive quantity of robotic installations lately, Asia’s common robotic density surged by 18% compound annual development price (CAGR) since 2016 to 156 items per 10,000 workers in 2021. The European robotic density had been rising by 8% (CAGR) in the identical time period reaching 129 items. Within the Americas it was 117 robots – plus 8% (CAGR).

High international locations

The Republic of Korea hit an all-time excessive of 1,000 industrial robots per 10,000 workers in 2021. That is greater than thrice the quantity reached in China and makes the nation primary worldwide. With its globally acknowledged electronics business and a definite automotive sector, the Korean financial system earnings from two giant buyer industries for industrial robots.

Singapore takes second place with a price of 670 robots per 10,000 workers in 2021. Singapore’s robotic density had been rising by 24% on common every year since 2016.

There’s a exceptional hole to Japan (399 robots per 10,000 workers) which ranks third. Japan’s robotic density had grown by 6% on common every year since 2016. Germany in fourth place (397 items) is the most important robotic market in Europe.

China is by far the quickest rising robotic market on the planet. The nation has the best variety of annual installations, and since 2016 it has every year had the most important operational inventory of robots.

United States

Robotic density within the United States rose from 255 items in 2020 to 274 items in 2021. The nation ranks ninth on the planet, down from seventh – now head-to-head with Chinese language Taipei (276 items) and behind Hong Kong (304 items) and Sweden (321 items).
