Sales in the global industrial robotics market are expected to total $33.75 billon by 2022, rising at a compound annual growth rate of 19.2 percent during the forecast period 2022-2028.
A 2022–2028 opportunity assessment and a global industry analysis are part of new market research on the industrial robotics market from Future Market Insights. The report analyses the industrial robotics market and makes significant forecasts for the years 2019 to 2029.
The industrial robotics market is projected to reach $96.82 billion by the end of 2028. As more focus is placed on increasing the productivity of high-volume production lines, particularly in the production of semiconductors and electronic devices, the market is expanding.
According to the report’s findings, the global industrial robotics market is anticipated to grow significantly over the forecast period due to a number of factors, including the adoption of the Internet of Things (IoT) in various industries and the expanding digitalization of the manufacturing sector globally.
Industrial robots are automated machines, gaining immense popularity across industries such as food & beverage, electronics, metal & machinery, and semi-conductors owing to their benefits such as increasing rate of operation, cost reduction, and quality enhancement.
These technologies are increasingly being used for large number of applications including painting, assembly, welding, palletizing, packaging & labeling, and product inspection.
Driven by this, industrial robotics accounted for more than 40 percent of the sales in the global robotics technology market in 2020.
East Asia is estimated to hold significant market share in terms of value in the global industrial robotics market. However, the South Asia market is projected to project lucrative growth in the global industrial robotics market over the forecast period of 2022-2028.
This growth is propelled by the rapid growth in the factory automation rate in countries of South Asia and East Asia such as China, India, and Vietnam, among others. The economic condition of these countries have been evolving positively.
Furthermore, macroeconomic factors such as growing population, rapid industrialization, and urbanization, are some of the factors driving the growth of the industrial robotics market.
The automotive industry in East Asia has gained a considerably positive momentum over the past years, which has increased the adoption SCARA robots and articulated robots in the manufacturing process and is estimated to indicate the rewarding growth of industrial robotics market in the East Asia region.
The global market of industrial robotics has been segmented on the basis of different types of industrial robots, their multiple applications, end use industries, and regions such as North America, South Asia, Europe, East Asia, and the Rest of the World.
