This report by Technavio provides an in-depth analysis of the global industrial robot sensors market in terms of revenue and emerging market trends. The report also includes an up-to-date analysis and forecasts for various market segments and all geographical regions.
Technavio research analysts categorize the market based on the product type
The top three revenue contributing product segments are discussed below
Global industrial robot vision systems market: The emergence of industrial robots that can be used for assembling and material handling is the key driving force behind the growth of the global industrial robot vision systems market. Advances in 2D, 3D, and LiDAR sensors, which enhances accuracy and quality of images and data are also anticipated to favor growth of this market during the forecast period according to the industry analysts at Technavio.
“Vendors are investing in innovations in vision guided robotics (VGR) to gain a competitive advantage against other players. Significant development in sensor technologies such as machine vision technology, 3D scanners, along with complementary imaging and mapping software solutions, are likely to fuel further growth of the market,” says Bharath Kanniappan, a lead analyst at Technavio for research on robotics.
Global industrial robot force/torque sensors market: The global industrial robot force/torque sensors market is likely to be driven by an increase in demand as these sensors enhance industrial applications. Another major factor that will drive the market growth is the use of silicon strain gauge as it gives sensors the capacity to restrain overloading and necessary stiffness to not move while taking measurements. ATI Industrial Automation is a major vendor in the market and has designed force/torque sensors to limit hysteresis, which implies greater repeatability.
Global industrial robot proximity sensors market: The market is expected to gain traction as more industries will increasingly employ robots to applications such as material handling or in assembly line processes to detect defective objects or modify the orientation of robots. These sensors will be in demand for use in robots that are not equipped with vision systems as they help in picking objects and parts by using the position of the gripper for feedback.
The top vendors operating in the global industrial robot sensors market are:
- ATI Industrial Automation
- FANUC
- FUTEK Advanced Sensor Technology
- Honeywell International
Other prominent vendors in the market include ams, Cognex, OTC Daihen, Hermary Opto Electronics, iniLabs, MaxBotix, Perception Robotics, Roboception, EPSON, and Tekscan, Omron.
