The global robotic welding market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 8.91%, from 2018 to 2023, to reach a market size of USD 5.96 billion by 2023, from an estimated market size of USD 3.89 billion in 2018.
The implementation of new industry revolution, Industry 4.0, to boost the productivity and the increased need of scalability in small manufacturing units, especially in developing economies, would act as driving factors for the robotic welding market.
The report segments the robotic welding market, by type, into arc, spot, and others. The spot welding segment is expected to account for the largest market share. Among all the end-user industries, the automotive & transportation industry, which is the largest end-user, has more demand for spot welding. Robots for the spot welding application have a high payload and are expensive than other robots which makes them dominate the market.
The robotic welding market has been further segmented, based on end-user, into automotive & transportation, electricals & electronics, aerospace & defense, and others. The automotive & transportation segment is expected to be the largest market due to high growth of vehicles in developing economies. Emerging economies such as China, India, Brazil, and Iran have a high demand for vehicles which would contribute to the growth of the spot welding segment.
In this report, the robotic welding market has been analyzed with respect to 4 regions, namely, North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and Rest of the World. Asia Pacific is projected to dominate the global market during the forecast period because of the increasing automation in China and other emerging economies. Asia Pacific is also expected to be the fastest growing market, followed by the Rest of the World. Increasing automation in China under the Made in China 2025 plan would drive the growth of the Asia Pacific market; China accounts for more than half of the Asia Pacific market.
The major factors restraining the growth of the robotic welding market is high initial investment cost for small manufacturing units.
Some of the leading players in the robotic welding market include Yaskawa (Japan), Kuka (Germany), Fanuc (Japan), ABB (Switzerland), and Panasonic (Japan). Expansions & investments was the most common strategy adopted by top players, followed by new product launches.
