Robots will become an irreversible trend in industrial production applications, and connector manufacturers are facing another opportunity!

According to authoritative statistics, from January to May 2018, China's industrial robot market saw a significant increase of 33.7%, making China the largest consumer of industrial robots for five consecutive years. As a cable and connector manufacturer that provides internal connections for robots, we naturally won't miss out on this promising sunrise field. At the same time, industrial robots are also undergoing continuous technological iteration and upgrading, which will inevitably bring huge changes to the field of cables and connectors.

The "Made in China 2025" strategy clearly proposes the development plan of CNC machine tools and robots. The proportion of industrial robots in industrial production is constantly increasing, and market demand is also increasing year by year. In the future, the replacement of manual labor by industrial robots has become an irreversible trend. According to the International Federation of Robotics (IFR), the sales volume of China's robotics industry is expected to maintain a growth rate of around 25% -30% in the coming years. In 2018, the sales volume of China's industrial robots market is expected to exceed 150000 units, and by 2020, the sales volume of China's work robots is expected to reach 270000 units.

From the current trend of China's economic development, with changes in population structure and increasing labor costs, many enterprises have introduced industrial robots for production and processing. There are two core advantages:
1： Can improve production efficiency and quality assurance;
2： It can reduce production costs and have a significant advantage in competition;
3： It is easier to manage and better able to meet the requirements of future production.
So the demand for industrial robots in China will continue to increase.

The arrival of Industry 4.0 and industrial automation means that more intelligent equipment and robots will be widely used in various production fields, and their demand is showing a stable and rapid growth trend. Connector manufacturers will be a new profit point in this field. Among them, core intelligent equipment and robots have high requirements for the application of connectors, and more "high-precision, high-performance" connectors will be increasingly applied to these intelligent equipment and robot fields.
