Industrial robots are mechanical machines programmed to automatically perform production-related tasks in industrial environments. Industrial robots are a form of flexible automation since they are reprogrammable and can be used in various types of robotic applications. An industrial robot is an automatically controlled, reprogrammable, multipurpose manipulator, which is programmable in three or more axes. An Industrial robot consists of five main components, a controller, sensors, a robotic manipulator, an end-effector, and a drive.

The growth of this market is driven by the increasing adoption of robots in the manufacturing sector, government support and policies for the adoption of industrial robots, high labor cost in North America and Europe, and the increasing number of SMEs globally. Furthermore, rising automation across the automotive and electronics sectors and increased focus on reducing human labor in industries are expected to create significant opportunities for the players operating in the industrial robots market. However, the need for highly skilled operators and the safety issues of industrial robots in industries pose challenges to the growth of this market.

The Impact of COVID-19 on the Industrial Robots Market

The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic drastically impacted several manufacturing and processing industries globally. The industries severely affected include oil & gas, construction machinery, rubber & plastic machinery, and power generation. These industries were severely impacted due to changes in consumer behavior, low production, and dependency on end-use markets and are expected to recover slowly. Some moderately impacted industries include mining, robotics, building technology, electronics, paper & pulp, and processing equipment. These industries are expected to make a speedy recovery due to the broad range of applications they cater to. The least impacted industries include agricultural machinery, food & beverage processing & packaging, and medical & scientific manufacturers, as they provide essential goods globally.

The top players in the industrial robotics market are headquartered in Japan and witnessed a major decline in their 2019-2020 revenue. For instance, in March 2020, FANUC (Japan) announced that its ROBOT division revenue witnessed a decline of 6.9% in 2019 compared to 2018-2019. The COVID-19 pandemic led to a global supply chain disruption and reduced installation of industrial robots in various key industries, such as automotive, electrical and electronics, and metals and machinery.

The pandemic severely impacted the industrial sector due to the reduced consumption of high-cost products and the consumers’ inclination to spend on only the most essential goods & services. During the nationwide lockdowns, consumers restricted their spending on consumer goods, high-cost electronics, textiles, automobiles, and machinery, which impacted the major application sectors for the industrial automation market. With countries resuming trade and economic activity and stability in consumer lifestyles, the spending on these products and services is expected to increase, boosting the demand for automation solutions in the coming years. The market is expected to recover in 2022 due to restrictions on the volume of human labor allowed at manufacturing facilities.

The industrial robots market is segmented based on type, payload, component, application, end-use industry, and geography. The study also evaluates industry competitors and analyzes the market at the regional and country levels.

Based on type, the industrial robots market is segmented into cartesian robots, SCARA robots, articulated robots, cylindrical robots, delta robots, polar robots, and collaborative robots. In 2022, the articulated robots segment is expected to account for the largest share of the industrial robots market. The major factors attributed to the growth of this segment include its crucial role in the automotive industry for various tasks, such as handling, assembling & disassembling, welding, dispensing (gluing and painting), and processing (cutting and polishing) as well as spot welding and painting. Additionally, the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in increased demand for testing and production wherein articulated robots are deployed to achieve seamless automation across manufacturing processes in the pharmaceutical sector, driving the growth of this segment.

Based on payload, the industrial robots market is segmented into up to 60 kg, 60–100 kg, 100–225 kg, and above 225 kg. The up to 60 kg segment is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. This category includes SCARA robots, articulated robots, and collaborative robots. The rapid growth of the up to 60 kg segment is attributed to the increasing need for automation in the electrical and electronics industry for assembly and handling applications where SCARA robots are extensively used. Generally, a SCARA robot can operate at a higher speed and with optional cleanroom specifications. By design, the SCARA robot suits applications with a smaller field of operation, where floor space is limited. In addition, the compact layout makes them relocatable in temporary or remote applications. SCARA robots can be particularly used in industrial applications which require a clean and hygienic environment, such as the food and beverage industries.
