North America Sees Record Robot Sales in 2022
2022年北美機器人銷量創下新高
Driven by the resurgence in robot orders from automotive companies, the North American robotics market set all-time records in both robots sold and value in 2022. According to a report from the Association for Advancing Automation (A3), North American companies ordered 44,196 robots valued at $2.38 billion last year, representing increases of 11% and 18%, respectively, over 2021, the previous record.
在汽車企業機器人訂單復蘇的推動下，2022年北美機器人市場在銷量和金額方面均均創下歷史新高。根據推進自動化協會（A3）的一份報告，北美公司去年訂購了44,196臺機器人，價值23.8億美元，比2021年創下的前紀錄分別增長了11%和18%。
More than 50% of sales came from the automotive industry, which ordered 23,807 robots, up from 16,752 in 2021. While orders from non-automotive industries slowed from the previous three years, unique applications continued to emerge in such industries as food services, construction and agriculture, such as robots cooking and serving food, dry walling, and even harvesting and picking.
超過50%的銷售額來自汽車行業，該行業訂購了23,807臺機器人，高于2021年的16,752臺。雖然來自非汽車行業的訂單比前三年有所放緩，但獨特的應用繼續出現在餐飲服務、建筑和農業等行業，如機器人烹飪和上菜、砌墻，甚至收割和采摘。
"Although labor shortage and supply chain issues impact nearly all industries in North America, automakers’ public commitment to move to electric vehicles (EVs) has set in motion a resurgence of robot orders in this market," said Jeff Burnstein, president of A3. "Automotive OEMs and components suppliers alike recognize that investing in robots is instrumental to the emergence of EVs as well as to manufacturing all vehicles as they compete to meet customer demand."
A3總裁Jeff Burnstein表示：“雖然勞動力短缺和供應鏈問題幾乎影響了北美的所有行業，但汽車制造商轉向電動汽車的公開承諾已經啟動了該市場機器人訂單的復蘇。汽車原始設備制造商和零部件供應商都認識到，投資機器人有助于電動汽車的生產，也有助于制造所有汽車，因為它們都在努力滿足客戶需求。”
Big orders in first nine months of 2022 compensate for slight drop in Q4
2022年前九個月的大訂單彌補了第四季度的小幅下降
In the first nine months of 2022, North American companies purchased 35,804 robots, up 24% over the same period in 2021. While fourth-quarter orders slowed, with companies ordering only 8,392 robots, total numbers for the year from all industries resulted in the 11% record over 2021.
在2022年前9個月，北美公司購買了35,804臺機器人，比2021年同期增長24%。雖然第四季度訂單放緩，企業僅訂購了8，392臺機器人，但年度所有行業的總數量比2021年高出11%。
"While the numbers of robots sold to non-automotive companies isn’t as staggering as it’s been over the last couple of years, it’s clear that companies in every industry see automation as necessary for success," Burnstein said. "We look forward to seeing more unique and increasingly easy-to-use robots that all industries can benefit from at Automate 2023 in Detroit this May."
“雖然銷售給非汽車公司的機器人數量不像過去幾年那樣驚人，但很明顯，每個行業的企業都認為自動化是成功的必要條件，”Burnstein說。“我們期待著今年5月在底特律舉行的Automate 2023上可以看到更多獨特且越來越易于使用的機器人，所有行業都可以從中受益。”
