That is an 11% improve in comparison with the earlier yr and the very best stage recorded since 2020. These are preliminary outcomes, introduced by the Worldwide Federation of Robotics (IFR).
The Japanese automotive {industry} put in a complete of about 13,000 industrial robots in 2024. That is an 11% improve in comparison with the earlier yr and the very best stage recorded since 2020. These are preliminary outcomes, introduced by the Worldwide Federation of Robotics (IFR).
“Japan is the world’s predominant robotic manufacturing nation representing 38% of world robotic manufacturing,” says Takayuki Ito, President of the Worldwide Federation of Robotics. “When it comes to manufacturing unit automation, Japan’s automotive {industry} ranked fourth worldwide with a robotic density of 1,531 robots per 10,000 workers in 2023. That is forward of the USA and Germany solely behind Slovenia, Korea and Switzerland.”
The Japanese automotive {industry} is at the moment present process a restructuring course of as a way to adapt to different powertrains. Most automotive producers intend to broaden their vary of battery and gasoline cell electrical autos. As well as, Japanese producers are creating hydrogen-fueled combustion engines. This diversified portfolio would require the suitable manufacturing expertise. Automobile producers signify roughly 25% of all robotic installations on an annual foundation in Japan. {The electrical} and electronics {industry} is the one sector that installs extra robots. Their installations reached about 14,000 industrial robots in 2024, which displays a 5% lower.
“The usage of robotics not solely characterizes trendy industrial workplaces in Japan, but additionally contributes to the event in on a regular basis areas of utility,” says Takayuki Ito. “On the ‘Future Creation Robotic Week’ held throughout Expo 2025 in July in Osaka, guests can expertise the evolution for a society the place robots assist on a regular basis life.
“Future Creation Robotic Week” July 13 to 19, 2025 at Expo 2025 Osaka, Japan
The “Future Creation Robotic Week”, at Expo 2025 in Osaka, presents guests insights into the thrilling world of robotics. The occasion showcases applied sciences from Japan’s main robotic producers in three exhibition areas: Zone 1: Way forward for Work with robots.
