| The IFR Statistical Department, which is hosted by the VDMA Robotics + Automation association publishes the study World Robotics every year. This unique publication presents comprehensive global statistics on both industrial and service robots in uniform tables allowing consistent country comparisons. It contains detailed statistical data for some 50 countries, broken down by application areas, industrial branches, types of robots and by other technical and economic variables. Data on production, exports and imports are presented for a selection of countries. Trends in robot densities, i.e. number of robots per 10,000 persons employed in relevant sectors, are also featured. The chapter about Service Robots is written by our partner the Fraunhofer IPA. |
The 2008 version of World Robotics is available in different formats: A downloadable pdf-version of all chapters, a downloadable pdf-version of the Service Robot chapter, or in the form of full online access to an interactive data query which allows access to all relevant data on every world location. Additionally to the downloadable pdf-version or the full online access a printed version can be ordered. Please click here to see further information on the products offered.
Besides the yearly publication of this 400 page comprehensive statistical analysis of the world’s robot markets, the IFR Statistical Department also provides the robot industry with quarterly shipment statistics.
In addition, the IFR Statistical Department organizes twice-yearly worldwide conference meetings involving the major players in robot manufacturing and gives presentations about the international robotics market all over the world. |
