IM Business
Launching Z:TA high-speed surface mounter
The Intelligent Machinery (IM) business manufactures and sells surface
mounters and other types of industrial robots.
Total demand in the surface mounter market contracted 15.0% in
2012, to 15 thousand units, reflecting a decline in domestic demand
from the yen’s strength and Japan’s sluggish economy, combined with
restrained capital investment globally from the impact of the economic
crisis in Europe.
Yamaha Motor strove to cultivate new customers in 2012 with the
release of the Z:TA surface mounter, which boasts one of the industry’s
highest component mounting speeds. Nevertheless, despite solid sales
related to smartphones and tablet devices, sales in overseas markets
declined from the second half of the year, and 2012 unit sales declined
6.4%, to 1,900 units. Sales for the overall IM business declined 10.2%,
to ¥30.8 billion.
We expect investment in China and Southeast Asia to recover in
2013, and are forecasting 11.8% growth in total demand for surface
mounters, to 17 thousand units.
At Yamaha Motor, with a high level of interest in the Z:TA from
overseas mass-production users, we will launch a full-scale market
offensive and are planning for a 36.8% increase in unit sales, to
2,600 units. Z:TA
