The Industry Development Trend of Stacking

　　A stacker is a mechanical device that stacks products onto shelves. It can automatically arrange packaged goods in an orderly manner and complete the storage and transportation of goods. Stacking machines are usually used for automated handling in industries such as food, medicine, chemical, electronic components, toys, etc. Through this automatic handling, not only can production efficiency be greatly improved but also product quality can be guaranteed. At present, nearly 80% of the machines and equipment produced in the world are handled by robots. So for China, how will mechanical equipment develop in the future? This requires Chinese enterprises to enhance their independent innovation capabilities while also engaging in international exchange and cooperation. In the future, China will make more efforts and attempts in this area, as it is a huge and promising market. Therefore, in this market, stackers will definitely occupy a place.

　　1. World Economic Situation

　　The continuous growth of the global economy and the continuously improving investment environment have provided more opportunities for the global manufacturing industry. As the global manufacturing industry continues to import raw materials from China, China has become the world's largest manufacturing center. In order to meet domestic demand, China will continue to expand its domestic market and manufacturing industry. With the arrival of the wave of industrial automation and informatization, China not only needs to become an important manufacturing country, but also a strong digital manufacturing country centered on software. Stacker cranes will enter a new wave of market frenzy.

　　2. Domestic market demand in China

　　In the domestic market of China, the usage frequency of palletizing machines has increased from the initial 20% to over 40%. In China, stackers have been widely used. Due to the fact that many products are completed through automatic packaging, the industry has a significant market demand. According to relevant statistical data, the global intelligent packaging market size in 2019 was approximately 11 billion US dollars, of which the packaging robot market size was approximately 3 billion US dollars and the packaging machinery market size was approximately 2 billion US dollars. By 2022, it is expected that the global smart packaging market revenue will reach 23 billion US dollars and maintain a high-speed growth trend. According to relevant data, China is the world's largest country in the application of intelligent robots and has the world's largest demand market for stackers; In the long run, this has also brought more development opportunities and space to China's stacker crane industry.

　　3. Changes in the World Competitive Environment

　　Industrial robots have been used in many industries around the world. Apart from China, countries such as Germany, the United States, Japan, and South Korea have a huge demand for industrial robots. Therefore, with the continuous increase of new technologies and labor costs, as well as the increasing replacement of manual operations by automated production, it is natural. Although palletizing machines are only a part of automated production, they not only involve the automation of the entire production process, but also the entire process and various industrial machinery and equipment related to it. If we can make more progress in these areas and optimize and improve them, then we will be able to greatly improve the production efficiency of machines such as palletizers.

　　4. International competitive advantage

　　According to the "China Robot Industry Market Forecast and Investment Strategy Planning Analysis Report", the current capacity of the Chinese robot market is about 100 billion yuan. It is expected that by 2020, the global intelligent robot market capacity will reach 280 billion yuan. The Chinese robot industry is currently in a development stage, and most of the products in the market are still imported. Domestic robot stacker crane enterprises are also actively striving to develop themselves. With the continuous innovation and progress of intelligent technology, as well as changes in the domestic and international competitive environment and industrial policies, China will also become a major global producer of stackers and have a certain degree of international competitiveness in the future.
