IFR Report: Service Robot sales up 39 percent in 2018
IFR報告: 2018年服務機器人銷售額增長39%
Sales value of service robots for professional use increased by 39 percent to 6.6 billion U.S. dollars. The total number sold in this robot category rose by 85 percent (2017). Logistic systems show the strongest demand, accounting for 63 percent of the total units and 36 percent of the total sales (in value) of professional service robots. Prospects for service robots remain positive, as it is also a primary field for start-ups.
專業(yè)服務機器人的銷售額增長了39%,達到66億美元。該類機器人的總銷量增長了85% (2017年)。物流系統(tǒng)呈現(xiàn)出最強勁的需求,占專業(yè)服務機器人總數(shù)量的63%和總銷量(價值)的36%。服務機器人的前景依然樂觀,因為這也是初創(chuàng)企業(yè)的一個主要領域。
This is according to the 2018 World Robotics Report – Service Robots, issued by the International Federation of Robotics (IFR).
這是國際機器人聯(lián)合會(IFR)發(fā)布的《2018年世界機器人報告——服務機器人》數(shù)據(jù)。
“In terms of value, the sales forecast 2019-2021 indicates a cumulative volume of around 46 billion U.S. dollars for the professional service segment”, says Gudrun Litzenberger, General Secretary of the IFR. “Robots for logistics, medical and field services are the most significant contributors.”
“從價值上來看,2019 - 2021年的銷售預測顯示專業(yè)服務領域的累計銷售額約為460億美元。”IFR秘書長Gudrun Litzenberger表示,“物流、醫(yī)療和野外服務機器人是最重要的貢獻者。”
69,000 logistic systems were installed in 2017 – this is 162 percent more than the number of units in 2016 (26,300). 6,700 automated guided vehicles in manufacturing environments and 62,200 in non-manufacturing environments are building up this increase compared to automated guided vehicles sales numbers in 2016. The value of logistic systems sales is estimated at about 2.4 billion U.S. dollars – an increase of 138 percent compared with 2016.
2017年安裝了69,000套物流系統(tǒng),比2016年的數(shù)量( 26,300套)增長了162 %。與2016年自動引導車輛(AGV)銷售數(shù)字相比,制造環(huán)境中的6,700輛自動引導車輛和非制造環(huán)境中的62,200輛自動引導車輛正在增加。物流系統(tǒng)銷售額估計約為24億美元,比2016年增長了138 %。
Medical robots are also well-established service robots with a considerable growth potential. The total value of sales of medical robots increased to 1.9 billion U.S. dollars, accounting for 29 percent of the total sales value of the professional service robots in 2017. Most important applications are robot assisted surgery or therapy and rehabilitation robots which assist people who have a disability with necessary activities or they provide therapy to people with the aim of improving their physical or cognitive functions.
醫(yī)療機器人也是成熟的服務機器人,具有相當大的發(fā)展?jié)摿Αat(yī)療機器人的總銷售額增加到19億美元,占2017年專業(yè)服務機器人總銷售額的29 %。最重要的應用是機器人輔助手術(shù)或治療和康復機器人,這些機器人幫助殘疾人進行必要的活動,或者為人們提供治療,以改善他們的身體或認知功能。
The sales value of field robots, which mostly comprise milking robots, account for about 15 percent of the total value of professional service robot sales. Their share slightly decreased by 2 percent to 966 million U.S. dollars. The total number of field robots sold in 2017 was 6,375 units, accounting for a share of 6 percent of the total unit supply. A total of almost 5,400 milking robots were sold in 2017 compared to almost 5,300 units in 2016, representing a 2 percent increase. In 2016, sales decreased due to financial problems of the dairy farmers. The market is still showing the effects of this in 2017. Agricultural robots (broad acre farming for crop, vegetable and fruit cultivation, harvesting) are getting grounded in the market. Sales increased from 190 units in 2016 to 520 units in 2017.
主要由擠奶機器人組成的野外機器人的銷售額約占專業(yè)服務機器人銷售額的15 %。他們的份額略微下降了2%,為9.66億美元。2017年,野外機器人的總銷量為6375臺,占總供應量的6%。2017年總共銷售了近5400臺擠奶機器人,而2016年銷售了近5300臺,增長2%。2016年,由于奶農(nóng)的財務問題,銷量下降。這一效應到了2017年仍在影響市場。農(nóng)業(yè)機器人(用于大面積農(nóng)作物、蔬菜和水果的種植、收獲)正在市場上扎根,銷量從2016年的190臺增加到2017年的520臺。
At the same time, the market for personal service robots, which assist or entertain humans in their everyday lives, is progressing rapidly. Value was up by 27 percent to 2.1 billion U.S. dollars. The total number increased by 25 percent to about 8.5 million units in 2017. It is estimated that nearly 6.1 million robots were sold for domestic tasks, including vacuum cleaning, lawn-mowing, window cleaning and other types – an impressive 31 percent increase compared to 2016. The actual number might, however, be significantly higher, as the IFR survey is far from having full coverage in this domain. The value was about 1.6 billion U.S. dollars. Compared to 2016, this represents an increase of 30 percent.
與此同時,幫助或娛樂人類日常生活的個人服務機器人市場正在迅速發(fā)展,銷售額上升了27%達21億美元。2017年,總數(shù)量增加了25%,達到大約850萬臺。據(jù)估計,有將近610萬機器人被出售用于家庭任務,包括真空清潔、割草、擦窗和其他類型——與2016年相比增長了31%。然而,實際數(shù)字可能要高得多,因為IFR調(diào)查遠未完全涵蓋這一領域,其銷售額約16億美元,與2016年相比增長了30%。
European service robot manufacturers play an important role in the global market: about 300 out of the meanwhile more than 700 registered companies supplying service robots come from Europe. North America ranks second with about 250 manufacturers and Asia third with about 130. Furthermore, about 30% of the service robot suppliers are considered as start-ups with a maximum age of five years therefore indicating the dynamics of this emerging and progressive segment in robotics.
歐洲服務機器人制造商在全球市場上發(fā)揮著重要作用:在同時700多家提供服務機器人的注冊公司中,約有300家來自歐洲。北美排名第二,約有250家制造商,亞洲排名第三,約有130家。此外,約30%的服務機器人供應商被認為是初創(chuàng)企業(yè),創(chuàng)辦最久的僅為5年,這也充分展現(xiàn)了機器人技術(shù)這一新興前端領域的活力。
