The development time of warehousing logistics robot industry in China is relatively short, and most of the warehousing logistics robot manufacturers have been established for less than 5 years. On the whole, opportunities and challenges coexist. On the one hand, warehousing logistics robots can play an active role in the transformation and upgrading of the logistics industry, especially in the most onerous handling links of human labor and sorting links that require more labor resources. Due to the good development prospect of the industry and the large amount of financial support for robot technology research and development, the investment and financing actions of warehousing logistics robot industry are frequent. According to Sullivan statistics, the total amount of financing for the warehousing logistics robot industry in 2017 has exceeded 1 billion yuan.

Main business model of China's warehousing and logistics robot industry

The business model of warehousing logistics robot industry in China is still being explored. At present, the downstream application demand is not fully opened, the integrated product solution is not yet mature, and the single charge is more in line with the actual demand. Secondly, the robot products built by warehousing logistics robot manufacturers tend to be standardized, and the enterprises with demand prefer the robot rental scheme.
