2023年1月26日——丹麥協作機器人公司優傲機器人（Universal Robots）公布2022年第四季度收入達8500萬美元，這使其2022年的收入達3.26億美元，相比2021年增長5%。按固定匯率計算，年增長率為12%。

The company’s Chief Financial Officer, Kim Andreasen, said: “We are proud to have continued to grow our business despite facing a difficult macroeconomic environment in 2022. We focused on those things we are able to control, and we overcame supply chain challenges to report our highest annual revenue to date.”

該公司首席財務官Kim Andreasen表示：“盡管2022年宏觀經濟環境艱難，但我們仍然取得業務增長，對此我們感到自豪。我們專注于我們能夠控制的事情，克服了供應鏈挑戰，獲得了我們迄今為止最高的年度收入。”

The demand for automation in Europe slowed in 2022 following the start of the war in Ukraine. Universal Robots’ results have also been impacted by the change in exchange rates, which created an additional headwind to growth.

烏克蘭戰爭爆發后，歐洲對自動化的需求在2022年放緩。優傲機器人的業績也受到匯率變化的影響，對增長帶來了額外的阻力。

Poised to meet growing demand
致力于滿足不斷增長的需求

Despite the change in global markets, overall demand for automation is predicted to continue to grow in 2023 and beyond, driven by growing labor shortages and changing workplace expectations.

盡管全球市場有所變化，但整體來看，勞動力短缺的日益嚴重以及人們對工作環境的新期望預計將在2023年及更長遠的未來持續推動自動化需求增長。

Universal Robots has taken steps in 2022 to meet this growing demand. The company’s President, Kim Povlsen, said: “We invested last year in building world-class expertise in welding, palletizing and machine tending. We have also been working with our ecosystem partners to make automation easier for our customers than ever before. 2022 has been an important year for the company overall. We started construction on new headquarters, reached our 1000 employee milestone and launched a ground-breaking new cobot.”

2022年，優傲機器人采取了一系列措施來滿足這一不斷增長的需求。公司總裁Kim Povlsen表示：“去年，我們對焊接、碼垛和機器維護方面進行了投資，打造全球頂尖的技術專長。我們還一直與生態系統合作伙伴合作，使我們的客戶比以往任何時候都更便捷地實現自動化。2022年對公司整體來說是至關重要的一年。我們開始建設新總部，員工突破1000名的里程碑，并推出了突破性的新型協作機器人。”
