DUBLIN, July 12, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- The "Global Mobile Cobots Market Size, Segments, Outlook, and Revenue Forecast 2022-2028 by Component, Application, Payload Capacity, End-User and Region" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The market growth is attributed to the small size and low cost of mobile cobots, which enable them to perform a variety of tasks efficiently, such as material handling, assembling, and disassembling, in industries such as automotive, electrical and electronics, and more.

Mobile cobots, also known as mobile manipulators or compound robots, are often mounted on Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs). These robots can autonomously move between different work areas and quickly shift from one job to another while transporting materials. They have opened up new avenues in industrial automation and are increasingly being adopted in various end-user industries.

The increasing investments in research and development (R&D) and advancements in artificial intelligence (AI), Internet of Things (IoT), and machine learning have led to the development of more efficient cobots equipped with built-in force sensors for enhanced safety in work environments.

Collaborative robots, including mobile cobots, are being preferred over traditional industrial robots in many industries such as automotive, plastics and chemicals, electrical and electronics, and food and beverages. According to the International Federation of Robotics (IFR), the number of collaborative robots installed globally increased from 11,000 to 22,000 between 2017 and 2020, while the number of traditional industrial robots installed decreased during the same period.

The increasing investment in warehouse automation presents significant opportunities for mobile cobots due to their small size and cost-effectiveness. These robots can perform tasks with less space and at half the cost of traditional industrial robots.

The future of robotics is expected to be more mobile, with the unit sales of Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) projected to increase by 31% annually in the logistics sector between 2020 and 2023, according to the International Federation of Robotics (IFR).

Industry 4.0 and smart factories are deploying mobile robots, including mobile cobots, in the production process and material handling. With the increasing use of machine learning and artificial intelligence, mobile cobots will be able to perform even more complex tasks with less human interaction.

The deployment of mobile cobots across major end-user industries was significantly affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. The sales of robots, both industrial and collaborative, decreased from 400,000 units in 2017 to 384,000 in 2020, according to the International Federation of Robotics (IFR).
