Market Overview (2017-2030)

Development of advanced robotics is one of the major technology trends that have an intense and progressive impact on society. Robots or automated material handling equipment are now working together with factory and warehouse employees to assemble and distribute goods across the globe with higher quality and at lower cost. Material handling and logistic cost of goods are expensive operations which involve of 10% to 80% product cost and this fraction is likely to increase for inexpensive products. Physical distribution or movement of goods from manufacturing plant to customer alone accounts for 25% of the product cost, which is the major factor the adoption of cost effective and efficient automated material handling equipment to ensure the quick and high productive material handling operations.
