8. Canada
Score – 6
First on our list is Canada, a country whose industry has been working to include more and more industrial robots. In 2015, not only did Canada manage to put loads of robots in its own factory, but it also exported quite a few of them, with the total sum rising to $61.2 million, equal to 1.5% of the total industrial robots exports.
Back in 2012, data from Merrill Lynch indicates the country had over 18,300 deployed robots in its factory, but the number has risen quite a bit since then. In fact, robot sales surged by 49% in 2015, to a new peak, the IFR reports.
