Robotic Welding Market: Global Industry Overview (2024-2030) by Type, Payload, End-User, and, Region

Robotic Welding Market Overview:

Robotic welding automates the welding method by using robots that execute and oversee the welding depending on the software that can be modified to meet the project's needs. Welders still oversee and monitor robotic welding, which is a more sophisticated variant of mechanized welding in which machinery does the welding. Robotic technology enables more precise and efficient outcomes, as well as reduced waste and more safety. The robots can reach previously unreachable areas and can conduct more complex and accurate weld patterns and joints in less time than hand welding. This offers more adaptability and frees up time for manufacture. The demand is inceasing in the robotic welding market as robot can adjust to a broad range of welding parameters, spanning arc, resistive, spot, TIG, laser, plasma, and MIG welding, thanks to the diversity of equipment available. The major goal is to include the appropriate welding programs and tools in the welding process.

 

Robotic welding has grown essential in metal and heavy sectors, particularly in the automobile industry, which uses spot and laser welding, due to its time-saving advantages and high output. It's useful for short welds with curvatures and repetitive, consistent actions that don't necessitate periodic welding process adjustments and alterations. The robot may also be used for long weldings, such as in the shipyard sector, thanks to additional dimensions. Despite robotic welding being most commonly utilized in mass manufacturing, where productivity and volume are critical, programs may be tailored to meet any requirement, and robots can be used for shorter and even one-off manufacturing while remaining cost-effective.

Robotic Welding Market Dynamics:

• The emergence of industry 4.0 is the main driver of the robotic welding market.

 

Countless end-user enterprises, which include automobiles and mass transit, materials and industrial equipment, electrical engineering, and aeronautics, have begun to incorporate Industry 4.0 principles into their production methods in order to reap the benefits of productivity improvements, adaptability, and security, as well as decent performance, diminished consumables, and lower operating costs. Industry 4.0 completely automates production methods with minimal to no human intervention. The industrial internet of things, cyber systems, web robotics, cloud technology, and big data are all areas where it may help. As a result, welding technology companies are moving toward the manufacturing of Industrial 4.0 compatible machines that are interconnected and cognitive.

 

• A major restraint is that the high utilization of industrial robots dramatically reduces the number of low-skilled jobs available.

 

In the long term, retraining and capacity building would result in more employment being created. This is true in most industrialized nations, but not in emerging countries, where the share of low-skilled personnel is substantially larger. For example, robotics expenditures in Japan and the United States are in reaction to a diminishing working-age population, although this is not the case in growing countries like India. Because Small and Medium-sized enterprises make up the bulk of any sector and are also the greatest employees, the adoption of automation as in emerging nations might have a negative impact. As a result, the percentage of employment that might be lost as a result of mechanization is substantially greater in emerging nations.

 

• The rise of innovative welding technologies is the key opportunity in the robotic welding market.

 

To fuse various components, a laser welding robot utilizes a laser pulse that is created using carbon dioxide and focused with the assistance of optics at workpieces. The laser welding technique provides considerable cost savings for producing medium- and large amounts of output goods. It has fast welding speeds, lowers rework, is very reliable, assures improved mechanical properties, and is extremely precise.

 

Robotic Welding Market Segment Analysis:

By Type, the arc welding segment of robotic welding market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.6% in the aforementioned forecast period. Arc welding robots take up less space and require less maintenance. They provide better welding precision and lower labor expenses. Furthermore, for load-bearing applications, high-payload arc welding robots are mostly deployed in the automobile and transportation, engineering, metallurgy, and machinery sectors.

 

By Payload, a higher than 150 kg segment held the largest share in the robotic welding market in 2020. It is expected to witness a CAGR of 5.6% in the forecast period. The rising demand for high-payload arc and spot welding robots in the automobile and transit, metallurgy and machinery, and architecture sectors can be linked to the rise of this category. Due to the deployment of welding robots with payloads higher than 150 kg in the aerospace and automobile industries for welding bulky panels, these industries are the major end-users of welding robots with payloads higher than 150 kg. Furthermore, the growing demand for vehicles is driving the advancement of the robotic welding market's higher than 150kg payload sector.

 

By End-User, the automotive and transportation segment dominated the robotic welding market in 2023. It is expected to witness a CAGR of 6.6% in the aforementioned forecast period. The rising worldwide demand for vehicles is a major element driving this segment's growth. In addition, increased human safety issues in vehicle production plants are driving up demand for small, medium, and high-payload welding robots.

Robotic Welding Market Regional Insights:

The Asia Pacific is projected to account for the largest share of the robotic welding market in 2030. The market in this region is expected to grow at the highest CAGR of 6.7% from 2024 to 2030.
