Promote the robot industry to achieve more innovative breakthroughs

2025-08-14   

Recently, at the press conference of the 2025 World Robot Conference, the relevant person in charge introduced that China has become the world's largest robot market and the world's largest robot producer for 12 consecutive years. Data shows that by 2024, the sales volume of industrial robots in China's market will reach 302000 sets, with a production volume of 556000 sets. Both the sales volume and production volume of industrial robots will rank first in the world, and the installed capacity of industrial robots will account for more than half of the global total. In recent years, China's robotics industry has been striving for innovation with the spirit of seizing every moment, forming a trend of hundreds of boats competing for the top spot. At present, the application of industrial robots in China covers 71 major industries and 236 medium industries in the national economy. The density of manufacturing robots ranks third in the world, and the number of robot patent applications accounts for two-thirds of the total global robot patent applications. Technological innovation is the core engine driving the development of the robotics industry. The transformation of social production and consumption from industrialization to automation and intelligence provides an opportunity for the development of the robotics industry. Whether it is hosting the world's first half marathon race for humanoid robots or the Chinese team winning the championship in the humanoid group of the Robot World Cup for the first time, both reflect the innovative momentum of the active robotics industry. Continuously promoting innovation in robot technology and expanding its application scenarios requires accelerating the deep integration of technological innovation and industrial innovation, promoting the rapid transformation of scientific and technological achievements, and seamlessly connecting the innovation chain with industrial needs. The vigorous development of the robotics industry cannot be separated from the strong guidance and support of policies. The previously released "14th Five Year Plan for the Development of the Robot Industry" clearly stated the main tasks of improving industrial innovation capabilities and consolidating the foundation of industrial development. The successive introduction of relevant supporting policies has injected more momentum into the rapid development of the robotics industry, promoting continuous innovation and breakthroughs in products and technologies, and achieving synchronous improvement in production and quality. Enterprises are the main body of innovation chain and industry chain integration. The rapid development of China's robotics industry is due to the strengthening of the position of enterprises as innovation subjects. The establishment of the National Robot Testing and Evaluation Center, the formulation and improvement of the "Robot Industry Standard Conditions" and other measures have established a product quality standard system for the robot industry, providing a necessary environment for enterprises to unleash innovation vitality. In the Yangtze River Delta and Pearl River Delta regions, the construction of regional collaborative industrial chains for robots has been deeply promoted. Shanghai has created a "global influential robot industry highland", Jiangsu Province has focused on developing industrial robot body manufacturing, and Shenzhen has established a billion dollar intelligent robot industry fund... A series of national and local policies and systems have been implemented to encourage enterprises to deepen their technological innovation. At the 2025 World Robot Conference, a variety of robot products from domestic enterprises bloomed, demonstrating the resilience and patience of leading companies in sharpening their swords in ten years. The robot industry still faces many challenges in achieving high-quality and sustainable development. Expanding the application scenarios of robots is one of the urgent needs at present. To achieve this, it is necessary to consolidate the scale advantage in quantity, shift from scale effect to cluster effect, expand the sales of industrial robots in the market, and enrich the related product spectrum; At the same time, we should also seek innovative breakthroughs in quality, focus on tackling key core technologies, continuously improve the localization rate of core components, establish standards for robot working systems, and accelerate the layout of service platforms such as robot testing. Expanding the application scenarios of robots also requires continuous breakthroughs in robot mobility and dexterity. For example, accelerating the development of quadruped robots that can steadily move on complex terrains, inspection robots that can be applied to power system equipment detection, intelligent dexterous hands that support fine task operations, etc., can enhance the breadth of robot applications. Promote better matching between robot supply and production and daily needs, actively develop humanoid robots, service robots, medical rehabilitation robots, etc., so that robot products can better meet the precision requirements of domestic services, warehousing and logistics, precision manufacturing and other scenarios. Looking towards the future, we will solidly promote the deep integration of technological innovation and industrial innovation, and promote the rapid transformation of robot research achievements into various complex technological applications, which will inject strong momentum into the high-quality development of the robot industry.
