The global collaborative robot hardware market size is expected to be USD 778.8 million in 2022 and is projected to touch USD 2108.06 million by 2031, exhibiting a CAGR of 11.7% during the forecast period.
The term "collaborative robot" refers to a class of human-scale robots that operate alongside human agents in demanding environments while still being agile and effective on the factory floor. The built-in sensors also pick up on these external forces, and if the force is too severe, the robot stops moving. Additionally, these robots are able to navigate in complex real-world surroundings and make judgments in real time because to a mix of sensor data and basic technologies like artificial intelligence & machine learning.
COVID-19 Impact: Impact on Supply Chain Ecosystem Led to Market’s Decline
The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with collaborative robot hardware experiencing higher-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden spike in CAGR is attributable to the market's growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over.
The COVID-19 outbreak stalled and hampered the implementation of collaborative robot hardware in a number of important industries, including metals and machining, electrical and electronics, and automotive. Additionally, a series of lockdowns has had an impact on the whole supply chain ecosystems across all industries. A sharp reduction is also being observed in fields like general manufacturing and the car industry, where robotics solutions are essential.
However, focusing on the positive effects, as more people move to remote working and home learning, robotics and automation are becoming a more vital part of helping to safeguard people and handle the supplies they need. Cobots are also aiding in the sanitization of hospitals. Additionally, as consumers accept social distance, they are already obtaining their goods via autonomous robot delivery. Automated workstations are also helping pharmaceutical companies do their tasks more quickly. As a result, it is anticipated that the state of this market in 2021 will improve over 2020 and return to normal.
LATEST TRENDS
"Technological Development to Boost the Market Demand"
The cost of delivery may often be drastically decreased with these Automation solutions. Modern robot improvements make it possible for enterprises across a range of sectors to operate autonomously with increased human aptitude and capacity, which helps to achieve this. Longer training and onboarding times, higher benefits and pay rates, and a lack of labor are other key factors that are influencing the adoption of robots. Distribution, fulfillment centers, and warehouses are increasingly embracing these automated systems. In addition, as technology develops and applications become wider and more flexible, a rising number of manufacturing businesses in the region are adopting robots.

DRIVING FACTORS
"Training Purposes Will Lead to Higher Market Demands"
Comparatively speaking to other conventional industrial robots, cobots offer a good return on investment. Small and medium enterprises are drawn to them because of their high return on investment and the prospective expansion of robot installation throughout several countries. Additionally, installing the additional hardware for collaborative robots is more expensive than the cost of this sort of robot, in contrast to deploying the additional collaborative robot hardware for ordinary industrial robots, which is more expensive than the cost of the robot itself. Because of this, compared to cobots, the entire cost of typical industrial bots, including the extra hardware and components, is greater. Because cobots just need a controller, an indicator, and a vision system, they offer a higher return on investment than typical industrial robots.
"High Return on Investment Will Propel the Demand"
The use of collaborative robots has a high return on investment (ROI) and benefits for enterprises of all sizes in terms of improved product quality, general competitiveness, and greater productivity. Additionally, compared to programming other robots, programming cobots is a little simpler. A number of important variables, including some of them, is driving the cobot market as a whole.
RESTRAINING FACTORS
"High Cost of Programming and Maintenance to Hamper the Demands"
During the projected period, the worldwide market is anticipated to see significant expansion. However, a few things might have an effect on growth. For example, the initial high costs associated with procurement, integration, programming, accessories, maintenance, etc. may be a growth inhibitor. The lack of a skilled labor force in emerging and undeveloped areas is yet another element that has a substantial impact on progress. A significant issue impeding the expansion of the worldwide industry may also be attributed to the strict governmental restrictions.
