6. France
Score – 7
Over in Europe, up next on our list of countries that produce the most robots in the world is France. While we may not know exactly how many robots are deployed in the country’s many factories anymore (as the number stood at 34,000 in 2014), one thing we do know – the value worth of the country’s exports for industrial robots. What’s the number, you ask? Well, it’s $209.4 million, which is enough to put France on the fifth spot at a global level for the 2015 year.
In recent years, the industrial robotics market in the country has stagnated, but estimates indicate an increase to 119 million Euro by 2020, an annual growth rate of a mere 1.5%. By comparison, in other countries such as Japan, China, USA,and South Korea, the jump will be of some 9.5%.
