European Union: Industries Invest Heavily in Robotics
歐盟：各行業(yè)大力投資機(jī)器人技術(shù)

Industrial robots in Europe are on the rise: The European Union´s (EU) 27 member states installed almost 72,000 units in 2022–up 6% year-on-year. These are PRELIMINARY results, presented by the International Federation of Robotics (IFR).

根據(jù)國(guó)際機(jī)器人聯(lián)合會(huì)(IFR) 發(fā)布的初步結(jié)果，歐洲的工業(yè)機(jī)器人呈上升趨勢(shì)，歐盟27個(gè)成員國(guó)在2022年安裝了近72,000臺(tái)，同比增長(zhǎng)6%。

“The top five adopting countries within the EU are Germany, Italy, France, Spain and Poland,” said Marina Bill, president of the International Federation of Robotics (IFR). “They account for about 70% of all industrial robots installed within the EU in 2022."

國(guó)際機(jī)器人聯(lián)合會(huì)主席Marina Bill表示：“歐盟內(nèi)采用機(jī)器人最多的五個(gè)國(guó)家分別是德國(guó)、意大利、法國(guó)、西班牙和波蘭，在2022年，它們約占?xì)W盟境內(nèi)安裝的所有工業(yè)機(jī)器人的70%。”

Germany is by far the largest robot market in Europe: about 26,000 units (+3%) were installed in 2022. This was a share of 37% of total EU installations. Worldwide, the country had the fourth highest robot density, following Japan, Singapore, and the Republic of Korea.

德國(guó)是迄今為止歐洲最大的機(jī)器人市場(chǎng)：2022年安裝量約為26,000臺(tái)(+3%)。占?xì)W盟總安裝量的37%。在全球范圍內(nèi)，該國(guó)的機(jī)器人密度排名第四，僅次于日本、新加坡和韓國(guó)。

The automotive industry is traditionally the main customer of industrial robots in Germany. 27% of the newly deployed robots were installed in this industry in 2022. This was 7,100 units, down 22% from the previous year–a cyclical investment behavior well known in this segment. In the general industry, the main customer was the metal industry that installed 4,200 units (+20%) in 2022. This is above the pre-pandemic level that fluctuated around 3,500 units per year with a peak level of 3,700 units in 2019. Installations in the plastic and chemical products industry were back at a pre-pandemic level - up by 7% to 2,200 units in 2022.

汽車行業(yè)傳統(tǒng)上是德國(guó)工業(yè)機(jī)器人的主要用戶。2022年，新部署的機(jī)器人中有27% 安裝在汽車行業(yè)。這一數(shù)字為7,100臺(tái)，比上一年下降 22%，這是該領(lǐng)域眾所周知的周期性投資行為。在一般行業(yè)中，主要客戶是金屬業(yè)，2022年安裝量為4,200臺(tái)（+20%）。這高于疫情前每年約3,500臺(tái)波動(dòng)的水平，2019年峰值為3,700臺(tái)。塑料和化學(xué)制品行業(yè)的產(chǎn)量回到了疫情前的水平，到2022年將增長(zhǎng)7%，達(dá)2,200臺(tái)。

Italy is the second largest robot market in Europe after Germany. An all-time high of almost 12,000 units (+10%) were installed in 2022. This was a share of 16% of total EU installations.

意大利是歐洲第二大機(jī)器人市場(chǎng)，僅次于德國(guó)。2022年安裝量創(chuàng)歷史新高，接近12,000臺(tái)（+10%），占?xì)W盟總安裝量的16%。

The country has a strong metal and machinery industry: Sales reached 3,700 units–in 2022–up 18% compared to the previous year. Robot sales in the plastic and chemical products industry grew by 42% with 1,400 units installed. And the country also has a powerful food & beverages industry. Installations went up by 9% reaching 1,400 units in 2022. Demand from the automotive industry was down by 22% to 900 units. This segment is dominated by the Stellantis Group that resulted from the merger of FIAT-Chrysler and PSA of France.

該國(guó)擁有強(qiáng)大的金屬和機(jī)械工業(yè)：2022 年銷量達(dá)到 3,700 輛，比上年增長(zhǎng)18%。塑料和化工產(chǎn)品行業(yè)的機(jī)器人銷量增長(zhǎng)了42%，安裝量達(dá)到1,400臺(tái)。意大利還擁有強(qiáng)大的食品飲料工業(yè)。2022年安裝量增長(zhǎng)9%，達(dá)1,400臺(tái)。汽車行業(yè)的需求下降22%，為900臺(tái)。該細(xì)分市場(chǎng)由菲亞特-克萊斯勒和法國(guó)標(biāo)致雪鐵龍合并而成的Stellantis集團(tuán)主導(dǎo)。

The robot market in France ranked third in Europe in 2022. Annual installations went up by 15% with a total number of 7,400 units. This is less than a third the number of neighboring Germany. The main customer is the metal industry with a market share of 22%. The segment installed 1,600 units – up 23%. The automotive industry grew by 19% and reached 1,600 units. This represents a market share of 21%. The French government’s €100bn stimulus package for investment in smart factory equipment that came into effect mid-2021 will create new demand for industrial robots in the next few years. 

2022年，法國(guó)機(jī)器人市場(chǎng)位居歐洲第三，年安裝量增長(zhǎng)15%，總數(shù)達(dá)7,400臺(tái)。這還不到鄰國(guó)德國(guó)的三分之一。主要客戶是金屬行業(yè)，市場(chǎng)份額為22%。該細(xì)分市場(chǎng)安裝了1,600 臺(tái)，增長(zhǎng)23%。汽車行業(yè)增長(zhǎng)19%，達(dá)到1,600臺(tái)，占21%的市場(chǎng)份額。法國(guó)政府于2021年中生效的1000億歐元投資智能工廠設(shè)備刺激計(jì)劃將在未來(lái)幾年創(chuàng)造對(duì)工業(yè)機(jī)器人的新需求。 

Annual installations in Spain grew by 12% with a total number of 3,800 units. Robot installations are traditionally determined by the automotive industry. According to the International Organization of Motor Vehicle Manufacturers (OICA), Spain is the second largest producer of cars in Europe following Germany. The car industry in Spain installed 900 units – up 5%. Sales in the metal industry grew by 20% and reached 900 units. Automotive and the metal industry accounted for almost 50% of the robot installations in 2022.

西班牙的年安裝量增長(zhǎng)了12%，總數(shù)達(dá)3,800臺(tái)。機(jī)器人的安裝傳統(tǒng)上由汽車行業(yè)決定。根據(jù)國(guó)際機(jī)動(dòng)車輛制造商組織（OICA）的數(shù)據(jù)，西班牙是繼德國(guó)之后的歐洲第二大汽車生產(chǎn)國(guó)。西班牙汽車行業(yè)安裝了900臺(tái)，增長(zhǎng)5%。金屬行業(yè)銷量增長(zhǎng)20%，達(dá)到900臺(tái)。到2022年，汽車和金屬行業(yè)占機(jī)器人安裝量的近50%。

Robot installations in Poland had been on a strong upward trajectory for nine years.

九年來(lái)，波蘭的機(jī)器人安裝量一直呈強(qiáng)勁上升趨勢(shì)。

Annual installations reached a total number of 3,100 units in 2022–the second-best result after the new peak level of 3,500 units in 2021. Demand from the metal and machinery industry was up by 17% to 600 units in 2022. The automotive industry displayed a cyclical demand with 500 units installed–down 37%. The war in neighboring Ukraine dampened the manufacturing industries. But investments in digitalization and automation technologies will benefit from a total of €160 bn in EU investment support between 2021 and 2027.

2022年，全年安裝量達(dá)3100臺(tái)，是繼2021年3500臺(tái)的新峰值之后的第二好成績(jī)。金屬和機(jī)械行業(yè)的需求在2022年增長(zhǎng)17%，達(dá)到600臺(tái)。汽車行業(yè)表現(xiàn)出周期性需求，安裝了500臺(tái)，下降了37%。鄰國(guó)烏克蘭的戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)削弱了制造業(yè)。但數(shù)字化和自動(dòng)化技術(shù)的投資將受益于2021年至2027年間總計(jì)1600億歐元的歐盟投資支持。

Robot installations in European countries including non-EU member states reached a total of 84,000 units – up 3% in 2022.

包括非歐盟成員國(guó)在內(nèi)的歐洲國(guó)家的機(jī)器人安裝量總計(jì)達(dá)到84,000臺(tái)，2022年增長(zhǎng)3%。
