The rapid development of the intelligent robot industry will open up the consumption space of neodymium magnets in the future. NdFeB magnets are mainly used in sensors and drive motors for intelligent robots. Combined with the relevant forecasts of the International Federation of Robotics, it is expected that in the next few years, the growth rate of industrial robot production and sales will be between 12-15%; the growth rate of professional service robot production and sales will be about 10-12%, and the sales volume of individual/family service robots will grow by about 20%.
 
 
The sales of neodymium iron boron magnets by a single industrial robot and professional service robot are about 20kg, and the consumption of neodymium magnets for a single individual/family service robot is about 0.5kg.
 
Based on the forecast of robot production and sales data and the consumption of single robots, the global consumption of neodymium magnets in the robotics sector is expected to be 9431 tons, 10817 tons and 12,799 tons, respectively, in 2016-2018, up 13.5%, 14.7% and 18.3% year-on-year.
