EUROPE INDUSTRIAL ROBOTICS MARKET FORECAST 2024-2032

Further, the Italian manufacturing and robotics sector has achieved high standards through the government’s Industrial 4.0 plan. This initiative has led to increased automation and interconnected processes, establishing the industry’s reputation for its digital prowess. In August 2020, the Italian government initiated a public consultation for the National Research Program 2021-2027 (PNR). 

Among the key focus areas of the PNR, 2021-2027, is robotics, highlighting its significance in research and innovation. Similarly, Amazon Robotics and Advanced Technology labs, in June 2021, commenced the use of Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) for testing and developing new technologies in Boston and Northern Italy. These efforts aim to enhance the movement of totes, carts, and packages within Amazon facilities.

The Europe industrial robotics market segmentation includes robot type, end-user, and application. The application segment includes processing, material handling, dispensing, welding & soldering, assembling & disassembling, and other applications. 

Manufacturing relies significantly on the processes of assembling and disassembling. The primary objective of assembling is to unite various individual components to create a complete device, structure, or system. Key aspects of assembling encompass the sequence of assembly, joining techniques, joint positions, interrelationships, part identification, tolerances, and part protection. On the other hand, disassembling involves separating different components from the system. The significance of disassembling has increased over time due to its economic and environmental advantages. For the tasks of assembling and disassembling, Cartesian robots and SCARA robots are commonly employed.

Some of the prominent firms in the Europe industrial robotics market include Rethink Robotics, ABB Ltd, Aurotek Corporation, Omron Adept, etc.
