Three factors drive Chinese robot demand
1. Increase in labor costs Factor 1: Labor costs have risen and demographic dividends have gradually disappeared. The increase in labor costs stimulates the demand for corporate robots to replace labor. 2. Declining labor supply Factor 2: Labor supply declines. In the mid-1990s, the number of employees in China's manufacturing industry dropped significantly. 98-99 experienced the crisis of laid-off state-owned enterprises, textile and other traditional manufacturing industries bear the brunt. After joining the WTO in 2001, the number of employees in China's manufacturing industry began to slowly rise again. However, in the second year of the new century, the working population in the 1980s and the 1990s has become the mainstream. They are no longer willing to engage in monotonous repetition of poor environmental work. The labor shortage in the low-end industries such as the Yangtze River Delta and the Pearl River Delta is obvious. 3. Policy support Factor 3: Upgrading of the manufacturing industry and support of national policies. Popularizing robots is not merely a substitute for artificial labor, but also an important means for improving the efficiency and flexibility of manufacturing. (III) Foreign robot manufacturers have taken the Chinese market The Chinese market is the world’s largest robot market in the future and has grown rapidly in recent years. International robot giants have taken the Chinese market one after another. Foreign robot companies represented by ABB, KUKA, Yaskawa Electric, and FANUC occupy more than 90% of the Chinese robot market. In 90% of the robot market share, ABB, Fanuc, Yaskawa Electric, KUKA four families together accounted for 57.5%. The three major manufacturers, OTC, Panasonic and Kawasaki, accounted for 16% of the total. However, the market share of domestic robot manufacturers is relatively small. In 2012, the market share of local brand robots was 8%, and individual enterprises generally had problems such as small scale and weak innovation ability. laser pipe cutting machine, laser tube cutting machine, tube laser cutting machine, laser pipe drilling machine Zhangjiagang heshun machinery manufacturer co.,ltd. , https://www.hsformer.com
