According to the IFR, sales figures for service robots have risen by 32%. This corresponds to a market volume of 11.2 billion dollars. Further growth is expected.

With around 221,500 industrial robots, Germany is the most automated economy in the EU - the number increased by 3% (2019). This was reported by the International Federation of Robotics (IFR) with the publication of the World Robotics 2020 yearbook.

The IFR is certain that robotics is necessary for the economic upturn. However, there is a lack of suitable training and further education opportunities.

Flexibility and health protection are the most important advantages of robotics, 80% of industrial decision-makers are certain. This is the result of the Automatica Trend Index.
