Market Overview

The term "industrial robotics" describes the application of programmable, automated devices made to carry out diverse tasks in manufacturing and industrial environments. These robots can perform precise and repetitive tasks with a high degree of accuracy and efficiency because they are outfitted with mechanical parts, control systems, and sensors. Numerous industries, including the manufacture of automobiles, electronics, pharmaceuticals, and food, use industrial robots. They can perform tasks like material handling, welding, painting, assembling, and quality checking. Industrial robotics can handle tasks that could be dangerous for humans, which increases productivity, improves product quality, lowers labour costs, and improves workplace safety. Furthermore, industrial robots are used extensively in the automotive, electronics, and precision engineering sectors in Japan to perform tasks like assembly, welding, and quality control. In addition, new opportunities for human-robot collaboration are being created by the development of collaborative robots, or cobots, especially in smaller and medium-sized businesses. With a focus on innovation and research and strong government support, the Japanese industrial robotics market is predicted to grow and continue to shape manufacturing automation globally as well as domestically.

Market Segment

• In 2022, the articulated segment accounted for the largest revenue share over the forecast period.

Based on the type, the Japan industrial robotics market is segmented into articulated, cartesian, scara, cylindrical, and others. Among these, the articulated segment has the largest revenue share over the forecast period. The mechanical design and movement of articulated robots closely mimic that of a human arm. The majority of articulated robots have four or six axes. Assembly, arc welding, material handling, machine tending, and packaging are typical uses for articulated robots.

• In 2022, the materials handling segment accounted for the largest revenue share over the forecast period.

Based on function, the Japan industrial robotics market is segmented into soldering & welding, materials handling, assembling & disassembling, painting & dispensing, milling, cutting, and others. Among these, the materials handling segment has the largest revenue share over the forecast period. Helping to keep down high labour costs and Improving productivity. Due to these reason, materials handling will boost the market growth in the forecast period.

• In 2022, the manufacturing segment is expected to hold the largest share of the Japan industrial robotics market during the forecast period.          

Based on the end user, the Japan industrial robotics market is classified into automotive, electrical & electronics, chemical rubber & plastics, manufacturing, food & beverages, and others. Among these, the manufacturing segment is expected to hold the largest share of the Japan industrial robotics market during the forecast period. In the manufacturing industry robots are required to pick up parts from one conveyor and place them on another. Other transfer operations are more complex, such as placing parts onto pallets in an arrangement that must be calculated by the robot. applications include spot welding, continuous arc welding, and spray painting. Spot welding of automobile bodies is one of the most common applications of industrial robots.
