- QUOTE: According to the International Federation of Robotics (IFR), China is forecast to lead the robot market in the next three years. While globally, robotics use is expected to increase by around 12-15% in 2015-17, every fifth robot sold in the world in 2013 was installed in China, and at the end of 2017 over 400,000 (20% of global figures) industrial robots will be installed in the factories of China alone (an increase of 25% per year). In comparison, robot sales to the Americas (mainly North America and Brazil) is forecast to grow by 11%, to Germany by 6%, and India is not even there in the picture (robot installations in India stood at around 1,900 in 2013). Arturo Baroncelli, President, IFR, says, “No other country will have such a high operational stock of industrial robots (by 2017).”
