Collaborative Robot Market: Global Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity and Forecast 2023-2028

The global collaborative robot market size reached US$ 1.9 Billion in 2022. Looking forward, the publisher expects the market to reach US$ 16.8 Billion by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 40.8% during 2023-2028.

A collaborative robot, also known as a cobot, is a robot that can learn multiple tasks to assist human beings. It relies on machine vision, cognitive computing, and touch and mobile technologies for being aware about its surroundings through demonstration and reinforcement learning. It consumes less energy than its larger autonomous counterparts and uses collision detection to avoid injuring human coworkers. Additionally, it minimizes errors, increases productivity and offers better operating results. As a result, it finds extensive applications in electronics, automotive, manufacturing and food and beverage (F&B) industries worldwide.

Collaborative Robot Market Trends:

At present, there is a considerable rise in the demand for collaborative robots with high payload capacity across the globe. This, along with the growing automation in different industries, especially in developing economies, represents one of the key factors driving the market. In addition, there is an increase in the integration of torque and force sensing technologies in robots across the globe. This, coupled with the rising employment of collaborative robots for manufacturing purposes, such as on the assembly lines and welding, is impelling the growth of the market. Apart from this, the escalating demand for user-friendly robots, which do not require a highly-skilled workforce to carry out operations, is stimulating the growth of the market. Furthermore, the rising demand for collaborative robots in the packaging industry to enhance their production rates is stimulating the market growth. Besides this, the increasing usage of collaborative robots in the logistics industry to overcome challenges, such as handling complicated work processes and numerous tasks in combinations, is projected to propel their overall sales and profitability in the coming years.
