  In future, medical robot-assisted surgery may become a major trend in the industry.


Nowadays, with the development of artificial intelligence and the Internet of Things, robots have become familiar terms for consumers. Dishwasher robots and sweeping robots have also become common electronic products in consumers’ daily lives. Robots have successfully replaced human labor. Consumers' hands.

"Labor robots" in daily life are in a period of rapid development. In the medical field, "medical robots" have gradually emerged and played an important role in surgery.

   Statistics show that from 2015 to 2020, the Chinese surgical robot market has grown from the previous US$93 million (approximately RMB 600 million) to US$425 million (approximately RMB 2.75 billion), with a compound growth rate of 35.7%. In addition, from January to April 2021, there will be 5 rounds of financing in the field of domestic orthopedic surgical robots.

   is related to the health of the Chinese people. The rise of domestic surgical robots has reduced the risk of difficult surgery in our country to a certain extent.

Judging from the current classification of domestic medical robots, it can be divided into four categories: surgical robots, rehabilitation robots, auxiliary robots and service robots. Among them, the proportion of surgical robots is about 17%.

   Although my country's surgical robots do not account for the highest proportion of the entire medical robot field, they are loved by capital. In 2021, many companies such as Shurui, Jingfeng Medical, and Longwood Valley have received investment from well-known investment banks such as Softbank and Sequoia China, and will compete with foreign capital for a market of 53.8 billion yuan.

So, why are surgical robots so popular with capital? What value does surgical robot play in the medical market?

   First of all, surgical robots are more usable.

   Compared with rehabilitation robots, assistive robots and even service robots, surgical robots are widely used in the current medical market. Especially with the intensification of the aging of the population, the demand for medical treatment has risen, and many diseases need to be judged with the help of precise instruments. The emergence of surgical robots has greatly eased the problem of unexpected demand in short supply.

   Take Yida Health as an example. From the company's mid-year report, operating income was US$2.756 billion, an increase of 41.22% year-on-year; net profit attributable to shareholders was US$944 million, a year-on-year increase of 147.31%.

  It is not difficult to understand why capital is rushing to invest in the surgical robot industry.

   Of course, from the perspective of practical applications, although the surgical robot industry has a huge development prospect, because the operation of surgical robots requires skilled technology and its price is relatively expensive, it has not yet been widely popularized and the utilization rate is relatively low.
