The industrial robot system integrator is at the downstream application end of the robot industry chain, providing application solutions for end customers. It is responsible for the secondary development of industrial robot application and the integration of peripheral automation supporting equipment, which is an important component of industrial robot automation application.
In recent years, due to the rapid development of domestic industrial robot market, the number of industrial robot system integrators has expanded rapidly. By the end of 2017, the number of industrial robot system integrators has exceeded 3000, while in September 2014, the number has not exceeded 500.
In addition, the scale of domestic integrators is not large. Among the enterprises, no more than 100 have a revenue scale of more than 100 million yuan, and most of them have a revenue of no more than 30 million yuan. Among them, the "large enterprises" with a revenue scale of more than 300 million yuan are also mainly concentrated in the field of automobile welding integration.
As of July 23, 2018, the industry research organization Mir has included 610 system integrators, whose robot sales performance can account for more than 70% of the overall Chinese robot industry. Mir will continue to include system integrators, with more than 1000 planned by the end of the year.
In recent years, Mir has analyzed the enterprise nature, listing status, regional distribution, brand authorization, industry coverage and industrial coverage of the 610 integrators. The analysis results are as follows:
Regional distribution of domestic robot system integrators
Enterprises are concentrated in Yangtze River Delta and Pearl River Delta
It is found that 610 industrial robot system integrators have a high degree of regional concentration. The Yangtze River Delta (Shanghai, Jiangsu, Zhejiang) and Pearl River Delta (Guangdong) are two major agglomeration areas, and the total proportion of enterprises in the two regions is nearly 70%. 34.3% of them are concentrated in Guangdong Province, 31.8% in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai, and 10.7% in Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei, which are extremely consistent with the regional distribution characteristics of industrial robots.
The reason: the production of automobile and electronic industry is mainly distributed in East China and South China. Shanghai, Wuhan, Changchun and Guangzhou are the four regions with the most intensive automobile production bases in China. At the same time, Shanghai and Guangzhou are also the developed regions of electronic industry. In the above regions, the sales of industrial robots accounted for the largest proportion, accounting for more than 50% in 2017.
Property distribution of domestic robot system integrators
In 610 samples, the number of local system integrators accounts for more than 90% of the number of Chinese robot enterprises, but the scale of local system integrators is generally small, and the annual output value of most manufacturers is not high. The outstanding representatives of local enterprises are mainly in the field of automobile and auto parts.
It can be seen that in the Chinese market, the main sales channel of foreign brands is system integrator, because foreign industrial robots are mainly used in the automotive and electronic industries with high integration requirements, while relying on system integrator can expand the market more quickly.
The robot application industries of domestic brands are relatively scattered. Plastic rubber, food and beverage, electronic manufacturing, etc. are the main application industries of domestic robots, and the application modes with low accuracy and load requirements such as handling and stacking are the main ones. In this case, the integration requirements of end users are not so high, while in the case of relatively small profits, domestic robot manufacturers tend to be straight Sell to get more profits. Therefore, domestic brands of industrial robot manufacturers are mainly direct sales.
According to statistics, there are more than 60 listed companies of robot system integration in China, including Shenyang Xinsong, Boshi, Tianqi, Guangzhou CNC, eston, etc. The new third board company has beiren robot, Juneng robot, Mingsai technology and so on.
Industry coverage of domestic robot system integrators
Mir conducted an industry coverage analysis on 541 of 610 system integrators, including 464 covering the automobile industry, accounting for 85.8%; 204 covering the electronic industry, accounting for 37.7%; 122 covering the home appliance industry, accounting for 26.6%; 112 covering the food and beverage industry, accounting for 20.7%.
The reason: industrial robots are widely used in automobile, electronics, home appliances, food, metal processing and other industries. In recent years, China's industrial robot system integrator market is mainly driven by the development of the automobile industry, which has a large number of system integrators. At present, China's automobile industry tends to be saturated, but the development of its sub industry, electric vehicle industry, provides new growth impetus for China's industrial robot system integrator market. At the same time, with the further development of industrial robots and the improvement of intelligent level, the industry coverage of industrial robot system integrators has been extended from the traditional manufacturing industry to other manufacturing industries, such as semiconductor, new energy (mainly lithium battery industry), medical, ceramic bathroom and other industries.
Process coverage of domestic robot system integrators
Industrial robots are commonly used in four fields: handling, processing, inspection and assembly. Each field is further divided into several processes. See the table below for the detailed process breakdown:
Mir analyzed the process coverage of 541 of 610 system integrators. The analysis shows that the process coverage of system integrators in different industries is different. For example, in the production of automobile and parts, there are a large number of processes such as loading and unloading of processing machines, moving between equipment, spot welding, arc welding, polishing, coating and assembly. At present, most of them are completed by industrial robots. Therefore, the business of robot system integrators in the automobile industry will basically cover these process segments; And the electronic robot system integrator mainly focuses on the processes of loading and unloading of processing machine, moving between equipment, spot welding, arc welding, assembly, etc.
