Lawnmowing robots bid for a share of a growing market

He may not have approved of what some experts appropriately describe as a "growing market" for gadgets that will do the hard work for you.The UK launch of a new robot lawnmower by electronics giant Honda follows similar releases by Robert Bosch and John Deere earlier this year.The Miimo is the first commercial robot that Honda has released for domestic use, although robot lawnmowers have been around for some time - outdoor power products firm Husqvarna launched its first model in 1995. The manufacturers all seem to be targeting the luxury end of the market - the cheapest Robomow model costs $899 and Honda's Miimo prices will start at $1,Robots are the mainstay in 2 axis Robot Arm System, but that says a lot and says nothing at all.

It may sound tempting to recline on a sun lounger with a cocktail while a robot the size of a large tortoise zips around your feet manicuring your lawn for you - but for some reason the idea has not really taken off yet.While there is evidence that the European appetite for the gardening gadgets is growing, with Bloomberg reporting recently that the market "expanded by 30%" last year, indications are that actual sales figures are still small.Online lawnmower seller Mowdirect says it has offered robot models for nine years, but their best-seller, the Robomow, from Israeli firm Friendly Robotics, accounts for only "2% or 3%" of their business. We use Motion Control System >4 axis to carry out work in outer space where man can not survive and we use robotic arms to do work in the medical field such as conducting experiments without exposing the researcher.

"They really haven't been marketed that aggressively in the UK just yet," said manager Stuart Drake. "But there are lots of launches coming up next year."The owner of a Swedish hardware store, Moheda Jarnhandels, told Bloomberg he had sold 60 robotic lawnmowers in 2012,The industrial Industrial robot market segmentation revolves around the four major market parameters; namely products, applications, functions, and geography. compared with just 10 in 2007.Miimo's initial sales target is just 4,000 units throughout the whole of Europe. Each of these complicated machines called robots have very specific parts that do very specific tasks.990.
