According to the
study “Global Material
Handling Robots Market - Structure, Size, Trends, Analysis and Outlook
2016-2022”, evolution in technology
coupled with the need to refurbish the existing global manufacturing facilities
is expected to drive the market for material handling robots. However, the lack
of awareness about various newer technologies may restrain growth of the material
handling robots market. Other drawbacks include huge investments required for
the adoption and transformation of old systems and cyber risks due to integration
of technology which drives the market vulnerable over a period of time.
Material
handling robots play a crucial role in industry automation because almost all core
operations in industries are managed by robots. The rising consumption
advantages of smart factory systems, increasing penetration of the IoT and investments in
robotics are the major contributors for the growth of material handling robot market.
Advanced technological innovations have enabled industries to deploy robots to
streamline various processes, increase efficiency and eliminate errors. Deployment
of material handling robots has increased workplace safety and improved
production capabilities has compelled various process industries to invest in multiple
robotic systems.
Material
handling robots are used for packaging, pick and place operations, and
palletizing/de-palletizing operations
within a manufacturing unit. Various end users of material handling robots are automotive,
metals, chemical, electrical, electronics, industrial machinery, food, beverages
and other industries. Automotive industry accounts for a larger share within the
material handling robotics market due to emerging automotive manufacturing facilities
in countries such as China, the US, and Japan. Global automotive industry
deploys majority of the newly ordered material handling robots, followed by
electronics, electrical, food, beverages, metal and chemical industries.
Articulated robots, Cartesian robots, SCARA robots, and other robots
(cylindrical robots, delta robots, polar robots, etc.) are the various types of
material handling robots available around the world.
Geographically,
global material handling robotics market is spread across the Americas,
Asia-Pacific, EMEA and rest of the world. Asia-Pacific region is the largest
contributor within the material handling robotics market, followed by EMEA and
the Americas. Increasing industrialization in China, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan,
and India are the major contributors for the growth in material handling robots
market. The material handling robotics market comprises of both international
and regional vendors. All the international vendors lead the market in terms of
quality, durability, reliability, and technological innovations. Huge
investments are made in R&D sector to improve robots with new technologies,
superior quality of robot construction, and more operational skills. The
leading players within the global material handling robotics market are ABB, KUKA, Fanuc, Yaskawa
Motoman, Toshiba Machine, Kawasaki Robotics, Nachi Robotic Systems, Adept
Technology, Apex Automation and Robotics, Daihen, Epson Robotics, Denso Wave
and Staubli International AG.
Industrialization
in all the developing and emerging economies has resulted in shortage of
skilled labour and this trend will continue over the next few years, especially
in countries such as China, Japan, Germany, Russia, and France. Therefore, adopting
material handling robots is improving production efficiency and thus overcome skilled
labour shortage. Almost all the industries are focussed on energy conservation,
producing quality products and workplace safety. Industrial workforce is the greatest asset of a company because productivity
depends entirely on the well-maintained facilities. Automation and robotics in industries
is making work safer, protecting the physical well-being of the employees. Robotic
systems can be widely used in very hot or cold testing conditions where manual
labour is advised not to function. Therefore, robotic systems have replaced human
labour to ensure production efficiency is maintained without compromising on
the workers’ safety. Deploying material handling robots is convenient and
reduces cost of material handling, improves production efficiency and overcomes
skilled labour shortage which directly boosts the growth of the material
handling robotics market over the next few years.
