Industrial robots are automation equipment that integrates advanced technologies from multiple disciplines such as machinery, electronics, control, computers, sensors, and artificial intelligence, representing the development direction of future intelligent equipment. Promoting the application and development of industrial robots is of great significance for improving working conditions, enhancing product quality and labor productivity, driving the development of related disciplines and enhancing technological innovation capabilities, promoting industrial structure adjustment, development mode transformation, and industrial transformation and upgrading.

After more than 30 years of development, China's industrial robot industry has formed a relatively complete industrial foundation, playing an important role in manufacturing, emergency rescue, field survey, resource development, national defense and military industry, and other fields. However, compared with developed countries, there is still a significant gap in China's industrial robot industry. Firstly, the industrial foundation is weak, and key components still heavily rely on imports. The second is that the industrial system of public service platforms, standards, and talents still needs to be improved. Thirdly, the market influence of independent brand industrial robots is weak, making it difficult to promote and apply. The fourth is that market competition is constantly intensifying, and hidden concerns about duplicate construction are emerging. To strengthen industry management and promote the orderly and healthy development of China's industrial robot industry, the following guiding opinions are proposed:
