Verkooprecord voor industriële robots wereldwijd in 2014
Global demand for industrial robots in 2014 reached more than 200,000 units for the first time, according to the International Federation of Robotics (IFR). Strongest drivers were the automotive industry followed by the electronics industry. Based on the preliminary results of the global statistics on industrial robots, the IFR estimates that about 225,000 units were sold in 2014, 27% more than in 2013.
The main impulse by region came from Asia, particularly from China and South Korea. In total, about 140,000 units were sold in Asia, by far the highest volume ever recorded. Robot sales to the Americas and to Europe also reached new peak levels (Persbericht IFR, 23 maart 2015).
