Learn more about Collaborative Robots

Collaborative robots are an emerging technology of automation where robots are designed in such a way that they can work alongside human workers with precision, strength, and speed for achieving high efficiency in production. Collaborative robots are further differentiated from industrial robots in a number of ways, such as the absence of “safety fence” while working alongside humans, simplified programming and reduced setup time, integration of auto-speed reduction and distance monitoring or proximity sensors, and ability to reduce motor power and force during application to avoid harm to a worker.

VISIONARY LEADERS

Visionary leaders are the leading market players in terms of product portfolio, geographic reach, innovative technologies, and adoption of growth strategies. The SWIR market is moderately dominated by the players covering a major share of the market. These players have a broad product portfolio that caters to most of the regions globally. Visionary leaders primarily focus on acquiring the leading market position through their strong financial capabilities and well-established brand equity.

DYNAMIC DIFFERENTIATORS

Most of the dynamic players are classified as companies which focus on specifically one or two technologies, however, hold a fair position in the market along with a presence in various regions globally. These players have low product offerings with stronger business strategies. The vibration monitoring market has many companies operating since the past decade, which are largely dependent on their competitive R&D activities.

INNOVATORS

The collaborative robots market is highly dependent on innovators because high capital and investments are required in the field of product and software development, and it is difficult for new players to enter this market and bring new co-bots to create a fine line of differentiation from the existing traditional industrial robots. In addition, there is significantly high demand for these products; therefore, new players can make steady profits.

EMERGING COMPANIES

As the market poses moderate threat to new entrants in establishing their footprint, there are several players providing collaborative robotics systems to diverse clientele groups globally.

Collaborative Robots GrowthCollaborative robots (Cobots) are designed to work alongside humans to achieve high efficiency in production. Cobots differ from industrial robots in several ways, such as the elimination of a ‘safety fence’ while working alongside humans, simplified programming and reduced setup time, integration of collision detection and distance monitoring, and ability to reduce motor power and force when operating in collaborative mode. They are safe and easy to operate, and yield quick return on investment (ROI) within 6 to 12 months. Collaborative robot operations in mainly defined in the ISO/TS 15066 standard. Other standards governing safe and collaborative operations in the robot ecosystem are ISO 10218-1:2011, RIA/ANSI R15.06-2012, ISO 12100:2010, and ISO 13849-1:2008.

The collaborative robot market is estimated to reach USD 8 billion at the end of the forecast period 2020–2026. The ease of design and deployment of Cobots, coupled with their competitive pricing and configurability, is driving the market growth. Many SMEs and large manufacturers that have deployed collaborative robots are benefiting in terms of general competitiveness, increased production, and enhanced quality of their products.

SME’s are expected to quickly adopt collaborative robots in their production processes
