Pharmaceutical robots offer a high degree of automation and minimize the dependence on human or manual work consuming less time and reducing human efforts. This means that pharmaceutical robots provide a higher degree of accuracy and automation.       

Global Pharmaceutical Robots Market Dynamics

Drivers

• Increasing Partnerships between Market Players

There have been increasing partnerships between market players of pharmaceutical robots that enhance the market's growth. For instance, Multiply Labs, a robotics business, has partnered with Thermo Fisher Scientific and Charles River Pharmaceuticals to automate cell treatment production. Multiply Labs is armed itself with two more pieces of industry-leading technology to automate manual elements of the cell therapy production process. Thus, this factor boosts market growth.

• Increasing Demand for Automation Robots in Pharma Sector

With automation becoming essential to pharmaceutical manufacturing, robotics greatly helps. For instance, Gilead Sciences, a Fortune 500 company, showed the high growth potential of the global pharmaceutical industry through its 5-year revenue growth rate of 28.8%. This is projected to surge the need for pharmaceutical robotics to automate tasks and reduce work pressure generated by such major companies, and thus, this factor boosts the market growth.

Opportunities

• Increasing Demand for Traditional Robots

The traditional robots segment is preferred over other robots, which are used greatly in many sectors. Several benefits associated with the adoption of these products in numerous industrial automation applications include loading and unloading, packaging, picking and placing material handling, palletizing and depalletizing, product placement, stacking, storing and retrieving, cutting, sorting, process-to-process transferring, scribing, and precision spot welding, are positively leading to the market growth.

• High Role of Laboratory Automation

Laboratory automation through robotic machines reduces the potential for human contamination and enhances market growth. For instance, MYS850L, developed by YASKAWA Europe GmbH, uses laboratory automation. Other laboratory applications include vial handling. Robots can handle 10 vials at a time. Therefore, pharmaceutical robots used in laboratories help increase the efficacy and quality of the products with high throughput analysis. Thus, this factor increases the market growth.

Restraints/Challenges

• Software Issues Related to Pharmaceutical robots

Pharmaceutical robots are run by computer programs, which can fail at any point in time without warning. Installing software updates and securing the machine to the pharmacy's record management system can take a lot of time and must be done properly to avoid errors in the future. Thus, this factor impedes market growth.
