Middle East and Africa Robot End-Effector Market Analysis, Size, and Share by 2028

The Middle East and Africa robot end-effector market is expected to grow from US$ 160.84 million in 2021 to US$ 355.66 million by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 12.0% from 2021 to 2028.

At present, in the high-tech industry, the demand for innovative products is surging tremendously. The trend of reliable and effective devices, which can perform tasks faster and have lower production costs, is increasing in various verticals across the region. End-effector technology, which is considered as the business end of robots, is gaining immense popularity across the region. End-effector is attached to a wrist of a robot, which enables the robot to interact with its task. End-effectors can be electromechanical or mechanical and serve as sensors, grippers, and process tools. It is an essential part of a robot since, without it, most robots are practically useless. It uses various communication protocols and different programming interfaces and needs different levels of skills to operate effectively. The robot end-effector is used in various industries, including automotive, metal and machinery, electrical & electronics, food & beverages, and e-commerce. With the development of Industry 4.0, industrial operations are rising, leading to the popularity of robots for taking up complex tasks. Growing innovations in robotics are commencing an exponential growth of the robot end-effector market.

The Middle East and Africa COVID-19 pandemic would have significant effects on Middle East and Africa economies, but the region has negatively impacted as there is already pressure on the economy of various oil-based countries due to falling oil prices. In addition to this, the factory lockdowns, business shutdowns, and travel bans are further aggravating the economic problems of the countries in the region. Hence, the estimated decline in MEA’s economic condition and impact of COVID-19 on the growth of various industries in the region is expected to negatively impact the growth of the market till mid-2021.

With the new advancements and technologies, vendors can attract new customers and expand their footprints in emerging markets. This factor is likely to drive the Middle East and Africa robot end-effector market. Industrial robots play an important role in manufacturing industrial automation as several major operations in industries are being managed by robots. The governments are taking initiatives to support and promote the development and adoption of industrial robots in their respective countries, which is surging its demand. The automotive industry witnessed massive demand for industrial robots, as in 2017, ~125,500 units were sold for the industry. The robust growth sectors in the same year were the metal, electrical/electronics, and food industries. The number of industrial robots continues to increase at an impressive pace in Middle East and Africa. Prime trends such as digitalization, simplification, and human-robot collaboration are shaping the future and propelling further swift development of next-generation robots. Thus, with strong growth in industrial robotics, manufacturers of robot end-effectors are gaining popularity in the region, which is fueling the market growth.
