The functions of industrial robots include pick and place, palletizing and de-palletizing, transportation, and packaging. The various applications involved are e-commerce, automotive, consumer electronics, food and beverage, healthcare, and other applications. The global industrial robots (warehousing and storage robots) market is segmented - 1) By Product Type: Mobile Robots, Articulated Robots, Cylindrical Robots, SCARA Robots, Parallel Robots, Cartesian Robots 2) By Function: Pick & Place, Palletizing & De-palletizing, Transportation, Packaging 3) By Application: E-commerce, Automotive, Consumer Electronics, Food & Beverage, Healthcare, Other Applications The global industrial robots (warehousing and storage robots) market size will grow from $5.39 billion in 2022 to $6.18 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.7%. The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term. The war between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, a surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, causing inflation across goods and services and affecting many markets across the globe. The market size of the global industrial robots (warehousing and storage robots) is expected to grow from $10.46 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 14.1%. Accelerated movement of goods inside the warehouse drove the industrial robots in the warehouse and storage market. The increase in the movement of goods is due to the boom in the E-commerce industry and their commitment to shortest-time delivery. Industrial robots are used to speed up the process in the warehouses and storage industry. For instance, in 2022, Geodis signed an expanded agreement with Locus Robotics, an autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) supplier, to deploy 1,000 AMR robots at warehouses globally. Accelerated movement of goods inside the warehouse drove the industrial robots in the warehouse and storage market. Major players in the industrial robot market are ABB, Amazon, Yaskawa Electric Corp., Honeywell Intelligrated, Omron Corporation, Fetch Robotics, Inc., Fanuc Corp., Bastian Solutions, Yamaha Robotics, and Siemens AG. The high cost of industrial robots limits the growth of the market. Industrial robots are capital intensive due to the use of the latest technology and sensors to operate efficiently and should withstand the weights. The cost of the setup for a warehouse operation of 50-100 robots costs between $2 million to 4 million which is a high investment. This high cost of robots prevents the easy adoption of industrial robots, limiting the growth of the market. The picking process in the warehouse is increasingly being automated with increased demand in the E-commerce industry, to reduce the pickup time of items. The automated robot gathers items and brings them to a central location, where an employee can fulfil orders fast. For instance, Ocado, a British supermarket started using a grid of picking robots in the warehouse that picks the ordered items and delivers them into crates, which are moved onto conveyors and carried to shelves where an employee picks the crate and delivers the order to the customer helping in delivering the groceries fast. Asia-Pacific was the largest region in the industrial robots market in 2022. Western-Europe was the second-largest region in the global industrial robots market share.

The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term. The war between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, a surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, causing inflation across goods and services and affecting many markets across the globe. The market size of global machinery market is expected to grow to $4,928.07 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 6.6%. Rapid advances in technology are expected to drive innovation in machinery manufacturing, thus driving the market during the forecast period. Furthermore, technologies such as 3D printing, artificial intelligence, and big data analytics are being used in manufacturing thus resulting in higher productivity, lower operating costs, and higher margins. For instance, according to a global survey by The Economist Intelligence Unit, about 90% of corporate executives felt that artificial intelligence (AI) will have a positive impact on a company’s growth and 86% of respondents considered that AI will help improve productivity. Lower operating costs lead to higher margins, this allows companies to increase product portfolios and enter new markets by making investments made through cost savings. IoT applications are also being integrated into these devices to enable services such as remote monitoring, and central feedback systems and to offer other services. Mobile applications, advanced sensors, and embedded software also created new opportunities for companies in this market.

Major companies in the machinery market include Caterpillar Inc., Deere & Company, Hitachi Ltd., Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Ltd., Komatsu Ltd., Johnson Controls International plc, Gree Electric Appliances Inc., Midea Group co Ltd., Canon Inc., and Tetra Laval International S.A. The outbreak of COVID-19 disease (COVID-19) has acted as a massive restraint on the machinery manufacturing market in 2020 as supply chains were disrupted due to trade restrictions and manufacturing activity declined due to lockdowns imposed by governments globally. COVID-19 is an infectious disease with flu-like symptoms including fever, cough, and difficulty in breathing. The virus was first identified in 2019 in Wuhan, Hubei province of the People’s Republic of China, and spread globally including Western Europe, North America, and Asia. Machinery manufacturers depend heavily on the supply of raw materials, parts, and components from different countries across the globe. As many governments restricted the movement of goods across countries, manufacturers had to halt production due to a lack of raw materials and components. The outbreak is expected to continue to have a negative impact on businesses throughout 2020 and into 2021. However, it is expected that the machinery manufacturing market will recover from the shock across the forecast period as it is a 'black swan event and not related to ongoing or fundamental weaknesses in the market or the global economy. HVAC systems are being integrated with building automation systems for the overall management of a building to maximize energy efficiency. BAS receives analog or digital inputs from the sensors installed in HVAC and the integrated system is managed by a single dashboard accessed from a computer. These integrated systems improve building performance, save energy, and shrink the environmental footprint. HVAC systems account for 60-70% of the total energy consumption of a typical commercial building, thus integrated systems enable commercial establishments to reduce power consumption. For example, advanced BAS technology integrates lighting, water, elevators, security, and HVAC systems into a single automated platform. An integrated lighting and HVAC system automatically controls the lighting and temperature to ideal levels, thus reducing energy consumption and costs. GE and Trane are offering solutions that integrate HVAC with BAS. The Asia-Pacific was the largest region in the machinery market in 2022.
