Manipulators Market

The global Manipulators Market Size was USD 391.33 million in 2024 and the market is projected to touch USD 527.34 million by 2031, exhibiting a CAGR of 4.3 % during the forecast period.

A manipulator is a machine that is used for industrial purposes as this machine has a rigid manipulator arm which is used to lift heavy loads and large containers. The arm of the manipulator can maneuver objects outside of their center of mass and it is used to handle bulk items efficiently and safely.

It is used to provide precise grip, lowering, and movement for lifting and transferring an object to an exact location. These industrial manipulators are used to increase productivity and also decrease the chances of any casualties or injuries to the worker.

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering with the market experiencing lower-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden market growth reflected by the rise in CAGR is attributable to the market’s growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels.

Due to COVID-19 the machinery and equipment industry faced a setback in terms of economy, employment rate, recession, and increase in the price of raw material which ultimately hampered the growth of industry and the global economy also declined due to the lockdown the workforce doesn’t work due to COVID-19 safety regulation. So it majorly impacts the machinery industry at a large scale.

"Introduction of Robotics Manipulators Improved Precision & Accuracy To Propel Growth"

The robotic manipulators are designed to manipulate objects in various industrial processes as these devices are replicas of human arm movement they work with precision and accuracy to carry out strenuous and heavy work with ease which makes them indispensable in industry for manufacturing, assembly, packaging, and material and handling applications.

These robotic manipulators are used in car assembly, and robotic arms for painting cars by using the required amount of paint which leads to avoiding wastage of paint due to its computerized mechanism. They are also used in the food and beverage industry to carry out tasks such as lifting heavy raw materials and transferring products from one assembly line to another.

By Type

Based on the type market is segmented into Pneumatic, Electronic, and Hydraulic Manipulators

• Pneumatic Manipulators: The pneumatic manipulator worked by pneumatic force which is compressed air and the movement of the manipulator gripping is controlled by pneumatic valves. It is used for handling tools with the same weight for a long duration of time. By adjusting pneumatic forces it is used to lift and lower the heavy loads manually with a pneumatic valve.
• Electronic Manipulators: Electronic manipulators are used to grip objects of various shapes, weights, and sizes. These products range from various weights capabilities and arm lengths with required adjustments. Its articulated compact arm structure helps it to work in a limited and small workspace.
• Hydraulic Manipulators: This manipulator is part of a micromanipulation system which is a combination of electrical and mechanical coarse manipulators and hydraulic manipulators for fine movements used for IVF due to its combination of rotating joystick it allows 3-D movement which results in the movement of micro tool with precise amplitude and speed.

By Application
