Asia Pacific Robotic Welding Cell Markets, 2022-2028 - Implementation of Collaborative Robots to Bridge Skill Gaps Gaining Momentum - ResearchAndMarkets.com

The "Asia Pacific Robotic Welding Cell Market Forecast to 2028 - COVID-19 Impact and Regional Analysis - by Offering, Cell Type, and End-user Industry" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The robotic welding cell market in Asia Pacific is expected to grow from US$ 855.93 million in 2022 to US$ 268.75 million by 2028. It is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 8.5% from 2022 to 2028.

Collaborative robots or cobots are designed to safely work alongside humans in tedious, dull, and hazardous environments. Unlike traditional industrial robots working in fenced facilities to avoid proximity with humans, cobots operate in a shared workspace alongside human labor. Conventional industrial robots have long allowed manufacturers to take advantage of automation and compensate for labor shortages, but they are often designed to perform a specific task.

Furthermore, they lack cognitive capabilities due to which humans need to reprogram their operations based on new circumstances. In contrast, cobots do not require heavy, pre-programmed actuators to drive them. Cobots' movements are directed by computer-controlled operators, such as robotic arms, which humans monitor.

Thus, cobots facilitate effective human-machine collaboration in the workplace. Cobots can be programmed to perform a wide range of tasks in a factory setting, such as handling materials, assembling items, palletizing, packaging, labeling, inspecting product quality, welding, press-fitting, driving screws and nuts, and tending machines.

While cobots attend these mind-numbing tasks, human workers can focus on tasks that require skills and reasoning. These all advantages of cobots will propel the growth of the robotic welding cell market during the forecast period.

Market Overview

The robotic welding cell market in Asia Pacific is segmented into China, India, Japan, Australia, South Korea, and the Rest of APAC.
