Recently, QYResearch have published a report on harmonic drive market. Worldwide, industry robot industry was the largest consumer of Harmonic Drive, which is responsible for about 46 percent of Harmonic Drive consumption in 2016. The remaining 60 percent was consumed for Semiconductor Production Equipment Industry and Machine Tools Industry among others. We learned that industrial robot and semiconductor manufacturing equipment fields’ equipment will become smaller and more complex (e.g., more joints) while microfabrication needs at semiconductor fabs are also set to rise. Our analysts believe it will grow fast of service robots, medical equipment, as well as aerospace, environmental, and energy fields in the next five years, because the largest supplier HDSI have already started finding more use in these fields. We estimated the world-wide harmonic drive market was valued at $ 246.05 million in 2016, and is expected to generate revenue of $ 367.81 million by end of 2022, growing at a CAGR of slightly above 6.93 % between 2016 and 2022.
HDSI is the dominant worldwide supplier of harmonic drive gear, there are other small manufacturers in China and North America. Therefore, market share concentration is highly

concentrated. The largest operators HDSI account for about 84.89 % of total industry sales in 2016. Other Key market players include Leaderdrive and Beijing CTKM Harmonic Drive among others.
On the basis of region, Asia-Pacific Harmonic Drive market size was valued at around $ 196.14 million in 2016, followed by North America and Europe. Japan hold the global largest market because the main uses are for industrial robot manufacturers, however, many customers are shifting production to china etc. Also, China’s demand increasing demand depend on local Chinese robot manufacturers. In the Europe and North America, it is forecasts rising demand for light, precise robot mechanisms to deal with high personnel/medical expenses personnel costs. Possibility that robot markets based around new concepts/specialized services from Google and others will develop. Figure Global Harmonic Drive Market Share by Applications in 2016
