Industrial robots are the fulcrum of industrial robotics, which by definition are automatically controlled, reprogrammable, multipurpose manipulator laid out in three or more axes. Industrial robots can either be fixed or mobile for use in industrial automation.
The scope definition of industrial robots is not limited to this. For the manufacturing sector, industrial robots are defined as labor that can perform dangerous or repetitive tasks for manufacturing operation with a high degree of accuracy.
The entirety of industrial robots with their impressive advantages has led to the emergence of industrial robotics – the highly specialized branch of technology. It deals with the design, building, operation, and application of robots.
Currently industrial robotics is at an early stage, with the manufacturing sector witnessing leading adoption for production processes. However, the scope of deployment of industrial robotics is immense with collaborative robots anticipated to continue the leading demand. This is because collaborative robots are designed to automate work easily, hence find extensive applications mainly in the manufacturing sector.
Besides automation of processes, collaborative robots are used in pick and place, screw driving, assembly, lab testing, and quality inspection processes. Advantages of improvement of safety aspect, improved production output, and faster rate of performing repetitive tasks attract the deployment of collaborative robots.
The growth of industrial robotics market is receiving impetus from prospects of adoption of industrial robots by SMEs in developing economies of Asia Pacific. High ROI of deployment of industrial robots is attracting investments from stakeholders in the industrial robotics market.
In addition, the expanding scope of deployment of industrial robots in automotive and consumer electronics sectors will provide promising growth in the industrial robotics market.
The adoption of industrial robots and the field of industrial robotics is also related to the need to develop innovative approaches in production cycles. This is because deployment of industrial robots is directly proportional to limit waste, limit defects, and minimize downtime in production cycles. This implies the processes of industrial robotics help overcome the limitations of conventional production processes and improve capacity of operators as well.
The advantage to influence business processes to be unique is accentuating growth in industrial robotics market.
Collaborative robots are built to work alongside human beings through interaction in a shared workspace. Collaborative robots have the ability to automate the work easily and hence, are used across a variety of applications such as packaging, pick and place, screw driving, assembly, lab testing, and quality inspection. Furthermore, collaborative robots help companies to enhance the production output with better work safety, as these robots can perform repetitive work at a faster pace. Demand for collaborative robots is continuously on the rise from different industry verticals including retail, healthcare, automotive manufacturing, and others, owing to their numerous benefits and associated applications. Several manufacturers operate in the industrial robotics domain such as Universal Robots, KUKA AG, and Franka Emika GmbH, offering a wide variety of collaborative robots for various industries.

Industrial robots provide a high ROI to entrepreneurs and producers operating in the industrial robotics marketplace around the world. However, underlying expenses of buying these gadgets is high and can be especially costly to organizations that purchase these gear in bulk instead of a replacement purchase or one-time purchase. Besides, these costs are followed by initial installation and training expenses and repeated cost for support and maintenance. These high rates are unfeasible to players having an extremely restricted spending plan.
Globally, Asia Pacific is expected to be the fastest developing market to a great extent due to the rise in research and development activities in Australia, Japan, India, and China. Adoption and popularity of robotics in small and medium enterprises (SME's) is additionally anticipated to strengthen the industrial robotics market in the region of Asia Pacific. Additionally, the application of industrial robots is growing across a large number of applications; for instance, consumer electronics, electrical, and automotive is additionally anticipated to boost the development of the market during the forecast period from 2019 to 2027.
