“Robotics is where PCs were

in the 70’s!” “Robotics is where consumer

electronics was in the 70’s!”

“We’ll make piles of money… But

how?”

- Service Robots People

“We’re making good money selling service robots (and a lot of things around them).

Here’s how.”

- Service Robots People

“Hey, we’re still a big part of

robotics.”

“How can we get a piece of

that new pie?”

- Industrial Robots People

WHAT IS A ROBOT?

“ I can't define a robot, but I know when I see one.”

- J. Engelberger, co-founder of Unimation

Page 4: Convergence of Service and Industrial Robotics

General definition

1. Robot manipulator2. Used in a factory3. For manufacturing

operations

WHAT IS AN INDUSTRIAL ROBOT?

WHAT IS A SERVICE ROBOT?

General definition

All the rest (!)…split in 2 sub-categories:

– Personal (B2C, Domestic)– Professional (B2B, B2G)

WHAT ARE THESE?

1. Mobile robot2. Used in a factory3. For logistics operations

1. Robot manipulator2. Used on the road3. For cleaning

operations

Page 8: Convergence of Service and Industrial Robotics

1. Platform typesManipulator arm, Mobile robot, Autonomous underwater / aerial / ground vehicle, Humanoid …

2. Industry / EnvironmentFactory, Military, Office, Distribution center, Hospital, …

3. Application / ProcessMaking things (Assembly, pick and place, welding), Moving things, Moving people, Cleaning, Inspecting …

MARKET POTENTIALINDUSTRIAL

ROBOTICS vs

– Double digit until 2015 (Source: IFR)

– Well documented market

– 90% of manufacturing companies still don’t use robots (Source: the Manufacturing Institute)

– Market to be defined

– 40% of manufacturing companies refuse work because of skilled workers shortage in 2010.

– In 2006, 50,000 experienced welders retired while 25,000 newly trained entered the profession.

WHO WILL SELL TO THE 90% ?INDUSTRIAL

ROBOTICS vs

For:– Well developed sales channel,

integration partners and customer base

– Complete product line (scale, processes)

– MoneyAgainst:– Maintenance of legacy accounts

and technology– Supporting the xx% growth– Product unfit to market

(integration cost and complexity, overkill specifications)

For:– No legacy to support, free to

innovate– Can leverage state-of-the art in

robotics, leverage low cost components

– New standards

Against:– Making robots is not easy– Sales channel to build– Limited to human scale
