MOSCOW, July 15. /TASS/. State corporation Rostec currently produces up to 550 industrial robots a year and plans to increase annual production to 6,000 robots by 2030, Rostec CEO Sergey Chemezov said at a meeting with Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin.

"We are currently producing up to 550 robots a year. Our production capacity is designed for that level. By 2030, we will scale up production and, I hope, reach 6,000 robots annually," he said.

The robots produced by Rostec are used for welding, machine services, applying adhesives and sealants, screwdriving, assembly, palletizing, quality control, and other operations. Operators supervise their work, fine-tune their settings, and carry out repairs.

"Today, the localization rate stands at about 75%. That is a fairly high level. We develop the robot designs ourselves - eight patents have already been registered. We also develop our own electronics, software, and so on," Chemezov said.

A total of 100 robots have already been delivered, with another 300 scheduled for delivery this year.
