Our newspaper, Beijing, December 28 (Reporter Wang Zheng) On December 28, the "Fourteenth Five-Year" Robot Industry Development Plan (hereinafter referred to as the "Plan") drafted by 15 departments including the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology was officially released. The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology held a press conference to make an introduction.

  "my country has become the world's largest consumer of industrial robots for 8 consecutive years. In 2020, the manufacturing robot density will reach 246 units per 10,000 people, which is nearly twice the global average." Wang Weiming, Director of the Equipment Industry Department of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, introduced in 2020 The operating income of the robotics industry exceeded 100 billion yuan for the first time; during the "13th Five-Year Plan" period, the average annual compound growth rate was about 15%, of which the output of industrial robots increased from 72,000 sets to 212,000 sets, an average annual growth rate of 31%.

  During the "13th Five-Year Plan" period, China's robot application level has been greatly improved.

The application fields of industrial robots have covered 52 industries including automobiles, electronics, metallurgy, light industry, petrochemicals, and pharmaceuticals. Large-scale applications have been achieved in the fields of warehousing and logistics, education and entertainment, cleaning services, security inspections, and medical rehabilitation.

“my country’s robotics industry has basically formed a whole industrial chain system from parts to complete machines to integrated applications. The innovation of core technologies and key parts is promoted in an orderly manner, the R&D and batch manufacturing capabilities of complete machines have been continuously enhanced, and the resilience of the industrial chain has been improved. The ability to coordinate development continues to improve." Wang Weiming said.

  The "Plan" puts forward five tasks such as improving industrial innovation capabilities, consolidating the foundation for industrial development, increasing the supply of high-end products, expanding the depth and breadth of applications, and optimizing the industrial organization structure, as well as "Robot Core Technology Research Action" and "Robot Key Foundation Improvement Action". 4 actions such as "Robot Innovation Product Development Action" and "'Robot +'Application Action".
