November 8 (Xu Yongxin) According to "Toyo Economic Online", the president of FANUC (Fanako), a large industrial robot manufacturer, said with deep feelings: "Now the order for robots is very active, all regions The demand is very strong." Industrial robots, which are indispensable in factory automation, have a lot of demand in automobile factories centered in the United States and China. In addition, in all other industries, as a solution to the increase in labor costs and shortage of manpower, more will be used in the future.
FANUC builds new factory in Japan
According to the news released by the Japan Robotics Industry Association, the shipment volume of robots in the third quarter of 2016 (July-September) was 37,680 units, which was the highest in the 13th quarter of the year and the highest in the quarterly shipments. . The International Robot Alliance expects world robot shipments to increase by 60% over the next four years.
FANUC now produces 5,000 robots per month, and orders have even exceeded production capacity in recent months, and the factory is extremely busy. As a result, the company announced a production increase plan in October, and converted part of the Tsukuba plant that produces small construction machinery to production robots by April 2017. Production capacity is expected to increase by 20%, with monthly production of up to 6,000 units. In addition, it took about 5.5 billion yen to acquire land adjacent to the Tsukuba Plant and build a robot factory as needed.
FANUC's reasons for increasing production capacity are not just "automatic heat." The previous large customers were automakers in Japan and the United States, and business opportunities in Europe are now increasing.
In Europe, there are Swiss ABB and Germany's KUKA, which are the two worlds that can be compared with FANUC. Inaba said that it has established contacts with German manufacturers such as Volkswagen, and automakers have opened the door for us. It will soon be promoted after establishing contact with one of them.
The next target is European car manufacturers
In the search for business opportunities in Europe, there are also Yaskawa Electric, which competes with FANUC in robotics. The company announced in October that it will invest 3 billion yen to build a robot factory in Slovenia. It plans to start production in September 2018 and produce 300 units per month. The company's executives said last Tuesday that there is ample market, and the first is to strengthen the production system for cars.
Robot demand is not limited to cars. Kawasaki Heavy Industries has invested approximately 10 billion yen in Japan and plans to increase the production capacity of clean robots for semiconductor production to 1.6 times. Kawasaki Heavy Industries has a 50% market share in the product and they are ready to take advantage of the increased semiconductor demand due to the development of IoT technology. In addition, the company is building a factory in Chongqing, China, and began to produce robots that can be used for detailed operations such as food manufacturing and electronic component assembly.
The large-scale bearing manufacturer and the company that has been engaged in robot production for many years have decided to convert the center business into a robot. The company will not only produce robots for automobiles, but also produce general-purpose products that can cope with various fields such as motors and industrial machinery. It is also planned to open 10 business bases in Japan, China, and Europe and the United States in the next six months.
The regions and industries that need robots are gradually expanding. As FANUC President Inaba said, “The highest growth rate in the company's business is robots in the future.†The strong investment in robot manufacturers will continue to increase.
