A robot is a programmable machine that looks exactly
like a human being while performing multiple complex acts. Robot is well
programmed insensitive machine that
functions automatically when it is deployed within industries. Multiple industrial robots are manufactured
and designed accordingly to move materials, parts, tools, perform a variety of
programmed tasks within the manufacturing facilities to produce quality
products. All the robots are equipped with articulated arms specifically
developed for managing various industrial applications. Healthcare, military,
public safety industries, manufacturing industries, mining industries are the
various industries that use robotics for multiple operations. With the advent
of robots, workload in manufacturing facilities is shared between man and
machines. As more and more number of robots is manufactured with
technologically advanced and autonomous features, they are trained and programmed
to do jobs faster and better than humans.
According to the study “Global
Collaborative Industrial Robots Market 2016-2022 by End-user, Application and
Region”, robots carry out a series
of operations automatically because they are embedded with internal controllers
or external controlling devices. Collaborative robots are smaller, smarter,
more affordable, user-friendly and flexible automatic solutions compare to aged
traditional industrial robots. Cobot are a short name for collaborative robots
which are designed for industrial assembling process. Global collaborative
robots market is segmented based on the end-users such as automotives,
electrical, electronics, machinery, metals, chemicals, rubber, plastics and
other industries. Automotives, electrical and electronics are the major
consumers of newly devised cobots. Geographically, the global cobots market is
spread across the Americas, Europe, Asia-Pacific and rest of the world.
Asia-Pacific leads the cobots market in terms of revenue and sales followed by
Europe and North America. Within Asia-Pacific, China and Southeast Asian
countries are expected to drive a continuing growth over the next few years.
Cobots are deployed in various manufacturing industries
and can perform functions such as assembling, inspection, testing, welding, painting,
handle materials and dispensing. It was estimated that there is an increase in
the adoption of collaborative robots or cobots in small or medium-sized
enterprises (SME), thus propelling the market for cobots. Various manufacturers
across the globe are deploying collaborative robots on their factory floors to
reduce labour costs, demand for quality and more durable products. Six-axis
articulated, lightweight, compact cobot are used for multiple automation operations
such as metal processing, plastic, food, beverages and electronic industries.
Cobots market is highly concentrated with few established companies occupying
majority of the global market share. The leading players in global cobots
market are ABB, KUKA, Rethink Robotics, Universal Robots, Fanuc, Adept
Technology, Yaskawa Motoman, F&P Personal Robotics, Robotnik Automation
S.L.L., and Scape Technologies A/S.
Collaborative robots possess
advantages such as lower cost, weight, footprint, easy to program, integrate, empower
employees and reduce their work stress. Therefore, cobots are preferred by
majority of the automotive end-users. Deployment of cobots within
manufacturing industries bolsters competition despite high labour costs
and help in sustaining manufacturing activities in all the developed countries.
Evolution in technology coupled with the need to
refurbish the existing global manufacturing facilities is expected to drive the
market for cobots over the next few years.
