For the third-straight quarter, robot sales in North America hit a record high, driven by a resurgence in sales to automotive companies and an ongoing need to manage increasing demand to automate logistics for e-commerce. The market grew 26% and 29% for units ordered and revenue, respectively, over 2021. Courtesy: Automate.
Industrial robotics insights The Association for Advancing Automation (A3) reported record highs in robot sales for 2022 as the industry continues growing. Driven by the resurgence in robot orders from automotive companies, the North American robotics market set all-time records in both robots sold and value in 2022.
Industrial robotics insights Robotics are being used more often in industrial manufacturing facilities due to a rising labor and skills gap and strong industry demand. Trends in the industrial robotics market include increased digitalization and automation and an emphasis on making robots easier to use.
The global motion control market grew more than 20% in 2021, which indicates a strong rebound from COVID-19 and Interact Analysis projects solid growth of 5.5% Labor shortages remain a problem for motion control vendors, but this is a common lament for many in the manufacturing and engineering markets. in APAC regions in 2021.
Robotic process automation insights. The demand is increasing for robotic process automation in healthcare, as robotic process automation can mimic human interaction. The global robotic process automation market is forecasted to be valued at $2.57 billion in 2022 and is projected to reach $69.20 billion by 2032.
Robotics insights. Developments in hardware, software and artificial intelligence (AI) are making robots more flexible and resilient and able to perform more tasks in applications they couldnt’t before.
Robotics insights. China passed the United States in robot density for the first time as the nation is putting enhanced emphasis on robotics and automation to keep up with manufacturing demand. The world’s top 5 most automated countries in manufacturing2021 are: South Korea, Singapore, Japan, Germany and China.
The automotive industry has the largest number of robots working in factories around the world: Operational stock hit a new record of about one million units. This represents about one third of the total number installed across all industries, according to the International Federation of Robotics (IFR).
The mobile robot market (AGVs and AMRs) has enjoyed strong growth in 2022, driven by increasing e-commerce penetration, a lack of labor and on-going shifts to more flexible manufacturing. Although the mobile robot market is now well established, and arguably quite mature in some respects, growth shows no signs of slowing any time soon.
Part of the reason that the industry is not yet consolidating is the fact that “mobile automation” captures a multitude of robot types, industries and applications. Despite numerous acquisitions the mobile robot market is in fact not consolidating. The same figure for collaborative robot arms is even higher, at nearly 85%.
Robotics insights The North American robotics market has experienced a significant decline for the second consecutive quarter due to a sluggish U.S. economy and high interest rates, resulting in a 37% drop in robot orders and a 20% decrease in value in Q2 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. A slow U.S.
Robotics in oil and gas insights. Robots in the oil and gas industry have been a mainstay, but growing digitalization and advances in artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things (IoT) and more are helping expand their role. Robotics can drives improvements in efficiency, productivity and safety.
Robotics insights Industrial robot revenues grew by 14.9% in 2022 thanks to long-term demand for industrial robots to be fueled by the electric vehicle (EV) manufacturing sector. The pandemic helped to fuel demand for the robotics industry as companies turn to automation as a way of alleviating labor shortages.
The global market for key components used in industrial robots reached $12.1 billion in 2022, a year-on-year increase of 14.7%, driven by production of collaborative and SCARA robots. The growth of the components market will likely slow down over time, as the robot market matures and stabilizes. from 2022 to 2027. respectively.
is a proven industry leader using ABB robotics and software to train tomorrow’s workforce, which will be using robotics in many different industries and applications. The Department of Technology at Illinois State University (ISU) trains students to program and operate industrial robots in preparation for careers in industry.
Researchers in Arkansas and two other states will be using a $5 million grant to increase use of artificial intelligence and robotics in chicken processing to reduce waste in deboning and detect pathogens. Arkansas is number 3, according to 2021 figures from USDA. Robotic hands are not adept at holding a chicken, he said.
Motion control insights Mobile automation can help manufacturers improve their safety operations, which have become more automated with the robots of autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) and automated guided vehicles (AGVs). For example, there was substantial growth in the mobile robot industry in 2021.
Learning Objectives Motion control advances, robotics help warehousing, distribution centers and logistics in factories, as shown by ProMat 2023 exhibitors. Garret Place, business development, robotics perception at ifm efector, said manufacturing demand continues to outpace labor availability leading to more automation.

Robotics insights Total robotics installations in manufacturing rose more than 10% in 2022 with the automotive industry being the main driver. The North American robotics market showed strong growth: Total installations in manufacturing rose by 12% and reached 41,624 units in 2022.
Robots-as-a-service (RaaS) is a flexible and affordable way for companies to deploy automation and related services such as engineering, maintenance and remote monitoring. Often used interchangeably with Robotics-as-a-service, RaaS comes in two main flavors. We manufacturerobots. We sell the robots.
Due to staffing shortages and major supply chain issues, manufacturers are willing to emphasize automation more to meet surging demand. Autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) and automated guided vehicles (AGVs) used machine vision and sensing technologies to move around freely and a key part around automation when it comes to logistics.
