The adaptive robotics market size was valued at $4,974.3 million in 2020, and is expected to reach $ 55,097.0 million by 2030, registering a CAGR of 26.3% from 2021 to 2030. Adaptive robots are the advanced robots being used to reduce human efforts, maximize productivity, and quick decision maker. Adaptive robots are intelligent robots that use artificial intelligence (AI) and other industry 4.0 technologies to sense the data as per environment and take appropriate decision. In addition, they have the ability to learn from their surroundings and experience. They can build on competences on the basis of feedback database. These robots gain almost human-like intelligence without being overtly programmed. Further, they are used in various sectors such as electrical & electronics, chemical, rubber, automotive, and food & beverages industry.
Increase in application of collaborative robots and industrial robots in various industries such as automotive and medical fuels the global adaptive robotics market growth. Adaptive robots interact with the surrounding and operate accordingly. They adopt change of path or direction of operation as per the changes in the working condition. In addition, rise in trend of automation in the manufacturing industry to carry out activities at faster pace has led to increase in demand for adaptive robotics. However, robotic systems that are deployed with robot end effectors are costly. Moreover, their installation in manufacturing industries incur additional cost. In addition, they are highly prone to damage while operating in heavy industries, wherein their replacement or repairing can cost a huge amount. Thus, all these factors act as the key deterrent factors of the global adaptive robotics market.
Rise in awareness regarding adopting adaptive robots in manufacturing sectors drives the growth of the global adaptive robotics market. Robotics technology is largely adopted in medical devices applications, automotive, and defense applications, which notably contributes toward the market growth. In addition, increase in spending on information and telecommunication spending in Italy grew by 21.7% from 2018 to 2020. Rapid industrialization and increase in government spending on infrastructural, and development of the robotics industry foster the growth of the global adaptive robot market. For instance, Thailand announced infrastructure plan over the period of 2016 to 2020. It further aims to spend $58.5 billion on new infrastructural developments by 2025. In addition, urbanization boosts renovation and reconstruction projects, which, in turn, is expected to boost the demolition industry. Therefore, use of automation and robotics is anticipated to propel growth of the global adaptive robotics market. Furthermore, integration of Internet of Things (IoT) is rapidly being adopted in the automation industry, which is anticipated to open new avenues for the adaptive robotics market.
During the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, construction, manufacturing, hotel, and tourism industries were majorly affected. Manufacturing activities were halted or restricted. Construction and transportation activities, along with their supply chains, were hampered on a global level. This led to decline in manufacturing of robots as well as their demand in the market, thereby restraining the growth of the global adaptive robotics market. Conversely, industries are gradually resuming their regular manufacturing and services. This is expected to lead to re-initiation of adaptive robotics manufacturing companies at their full-scale capacities, which is likely to help the adaptive robotics market to recover by end of 2021.
