Europe Warehouse Robotics Market Introduction and Overview
According to SPER Market Research, the Europe Warehouse Robotics Market is estimated to reach USD 9.79 Billion by 2033 with a CAGR of 15%.
The report includes an in-depth analysis of the Europe Warehouse Robotics Market, including market size and trends, product mix, applications, and supplier analysis. Robotic systems, self-driving cars, and artificial intelligence are used in warehouse robotics to automate warehouse tasks. The purpose of these robots is to support human labourers by increasing productivity and decreasing overhead. Robots of many kinds, including automated guided vehicles (AGVs), robotic arms, and autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), are used in warehouse robotics. Each type of robot has a specific purpose in optimising logistics and material handling processes.
- August 2022: ABB Limited declared that it has joined Berkshire Grey Inc.'s technology partnership programme in order to offer robotics and artificial intelligence to a larger customer base, hence increasing e-commerce fulfilment throughput and warehousing efficiency. The company's goals in working together were to maximise customers' operations and offer adaptable, affordable warehouse automation solutions.
- September 2022: An innovative automated guided vehicle (AGV) system was implemented by Yanmar America Corporation at its production site located in Adairsville, GA. The modular AGV system was added to Yanmar's Powerpack series generator production line, which doubled production capacity and improved the quality of products that were shipped to clients.
Market Opportunities and Challenges
Expanding the Use of Warehouse Robotics in All Industries: The growing usage of robotic systems in storage facilities for the food and beverage, fast-moving consumer products, retail, and third-party logistics industries is anticipated to propel the growth of the warehouse robotics market in Europe. With robots becoming safer, smarter, and more complex, more and more of the monotonous yet varied processes currently performed by people in warehouses will be handled by them. An increasing number of collaborations between warehouse robotics companies and online retailers, wherein the robotics companies finance warehouse automation for the retailers, is contributing to the growth of the warehouse robotics market.
However, high costs have hindered the market's growth and prevented widespread adoption, particularly in the small- and medium-sized warehouse sector. Additionally, business expansion is hampered by the strict legal requirements for using robots in warehouses. But some of the market's sellers, like Kuka Robotics, are offering its clients the opportunity to rent out a whole automated plant with robot personnel in addition to leasing out robots through an effort called SmartFactory as a Service.
The COVID-19 outbreak had a major effect on the European continent. In terms of the total number of infected patients, countries such as Germany, France, Italy, and the United Kingdom were among the most severely impacted. The warehouse industry, already impacted by high labour costs, changed its focus to embracing automation and robotic technologies to ensure compliance with government rules and efficiently continue its business, as some European countries enacted tight lockdown measures. Given robotics' many advantages, this trend is anticipated to continue and propel the expansion of the market under study during the course of the projection period.
