6 APRIL, 2021It was in the '60s when the first industrial robots came into the picture. During that decade, a substantial growth spurt occurred in the global industrial robotics market as automotive original equipment manufacturers (OEM) hastily started automating their weld shops. Soon after, a second growth spurt occurred. Several reasons spurred this second wave; advancements in leading-edge technologies, increased global competition, and decreased equipment costs were some of them. Right now, the COVID-19 outbreak has indeed dropped that ascending graph of the industrial robotics industry to a lower level, but not all hope is lost. The use of robotics in manufacturing and industrial settings would continue to advance and evolve rapidly in the coming years since manufacturers are increasingly looking to improve quality and enhance productivity while bringing down operational costs. Notably, industrial robots have a prominent role in the ongoing automation of traditional manufacturing and industrial practices - Industry 4.0. Simultaneously, intelligent sensors andactuators will be increasingly deployed by robots at theedge of production.
