Industrial Robotics Market: Growth and Trends
The fourth industrial revolution is transforming manufacturing processes within various organizations by incorporating robotics and interconnected devices. Over the years, there has been a growing global need for consumer electronics and automobiles.
As a result, manufacturers are continuously employing industrial robots to automate several manufacturing processes that require consistent replicability. Industrial robots are robust machines specifically designed to expedite numerous manufacturing tasks through automation. These machines come with at least one robotic arm intended to carry out hazardous or repetitive duties in factories. Industrial robots offer the versatility to function under a wide range of challenging conditions, such as high-pressure vacuum environments and radiation zones, minimizing direct human involvement. Additionally, specialized grippers can be attached to the robotic arms, allowing them to manage delicate tasks and lift weights of several tons.
It is noteworthy that there are currently more than three million industrial robots in operation worldwide. These robots can achieve a higher efficiency rate than human workers. The International Trade Administration (ITA) reports that companies that use automated labor have seen productivity improvements exceeding five percent.
Consumers are showing a preference for more adaptable industrial robots capable of handling a diverse array of payloads. For example, KUKA industrial robots can lift weights up to 500 kilograms, with an arm extension exceeding 2,500 millimeters.
