Aerospace robotics refers to the robots used for the assembly and maintenance of aircraft, satellites and space shuttles. They are commonly used for executing sensitive tasks, such as material handling, cutting, riveting, bolting, welding and fabrication of exterior and interior components of the aircraft. They are also utilized for detecting minute variations in the thickness, patency and integrity of aircraft skins, airfoils and paint coatings. Aerospace robotics usually operate through articulated, cartesian, cylindrical, spherical, parallel and selective compliance articulated robot arm (SCARA) technologies. In comparison to the traditionally used manual systems, aerospace robotics solutions can perform repeated tasks with enhanced accuracy and offer consistent and speedy results. Space robotics also find extensive application for autonomously operating on new planetary surfaces.
Aerospace Robotics Market Trends
Significant growth in the aerospace and aviation industries across the globe is one of the key factors creating a positive outlook for the market.
