Every time we see news about the sale of robots, these sales do nothing but increase. According to data from  Interact Analysis , in the year 2021were sold more than 100,000 mobile robots in the world (including AGVs, AMRs, etc…) with a global increase of 70% compared to the previous year.

This clearly indicates that they are increasingly used in different applications. China is the largest manufacturer and the one that uses them the most, followed by the USA; which gives us an idea of the countries that make the most effort to improve their competitiveness.   

And future expectations are most optimistic for robot manufacturers. Some experts estimate that by 2025 more than 1 million robots could be sold worldwide.

China no longer sells at a good price because of its low wages, but because it is also highly automated, and it continues to do so more and more every day. An example to follow for Europe.

The following photo shows the percentage increase of robots in the year 2021, depending on the type of robots. And we can see that those that grow the most do so at levels of 20% per year.

 That of robots is a very active market, to which at the moment it seems there is no limit.

The "problem" is with those who do not use enough robots to improve their competitiveness. And they have that problem in the short and medium term, because they are not going to get very far.
