Industrial Robotics Overview

An industrial robot is a mechanical machine that is supplied data and programmed to automatically perform activities linked to industrial production. These robots can be reprogrammable, and the programme can be altered as many times as needed, depending on the application. Industrial robots assist in increasing productivity by lowering costs and generating high-quality goods in automation applications. Drives, end-effectors, robotic manipulators, sensors, and controls make up the majority of industrial robots. The robotic controller is the robot's brain that aids in delivering commands. Microphones and cameras are used as robot sensors to keep the robot aware of the industrial surroundings.

Industrial Robotics Market Trends

Growth Drivers

The Growth Of Automotives Industry Coupled With Government’s Initiatives For Growth Of Industrial Robotics Market

The automotive industry is a big user of industrial robotics, and it has a lot of different applications. As a result, the growing automotive industry will move the market forward. Companies like BAIC Motors and Changan Automobile Group have been spending heavily on robots adoption in the projection year 2020-2025. Additionally, the launch of 'Make in India' has increased attention to the Indian manufacturing sector, which is anticipated to be one of the fastest-growing markets globally in the APAC region. The manufacturing industry's production has increased, and it is predicted to continue to grow quickly through 2020. The Indian government has committed to investing over $13 billion in industrial robotics research and development. According to the government, the manufacturing industry is expected to be worth $1 trillion by 2025. GE, Bosch, and Panasonic, among others, have declared plans to invest in India, bolstering the country's economic growth. During the projected period, such factors will help expand the industrial robotics market.

Rising Prevalence Of Online Shopping and E-Commerce Creating A High Demand of Robots For Logistics Sector

The growing trend towards online shopping is boosting the e-commerce industry. The distribution centers, retailers, warehouses, and facilities owners emphasize integrated automated robotic solutions. The interest is to achieve on-time delivery, reduce labor costs, and enhance efficiency and productivity at every process. This is one of the major factors for industrial robot deployments. Furthermore, many companies are developing promising products across all logistics value chains, including self-driving trucks, intelligent warehouses, and service robots, thus aiding the growth of the industrial robotics market.

Restraints

High Initial Investments Involved in Setup And Maintenance of Industrial Robotics Systems

The high initial expenditure required for setting up and integrating industrial robotic solutions impedes the adoption of robots by small and midsize enterprises in a wide range of industries. For instance, in the machinery & metal sector, the cost of cutting, welding, and soldering machines is significantly high, making it unaffordable for average companies. Key players need to focus on offering affordable and cost-effective robots to accelerate the acceptance of robots by small-scale industries. Such high costs may negatively impact the industrial robotics market during the forecast years.

Impact of COVID-19 On the Global Industrial Robotics Market

The COVID-19 pandemic had a mixed impact on the industrial robotics business, as China had been the dominant market for industrial robots for the past 5 years (40–50 percent share). The top industrial robot manufacturers are all situated in Japan, and their revenue is anticipated to decline in the coming years. Moreover, due to the labor shortage at various manufacturing sites due to the lockdown restrictions, many industries resorted to integrated automated robotics systems to perform various repetitive functions to manufacture various drugs and medical devices to fulfill the demand during the pandemic. So, the industrial robotics market is expected to exhibit growth as a result of the pandemic.
