The North America pharmaceutical robots market is expected to grow from US$ 35.83 million in 2021 to US$ 87.45 million by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 13.6% from 2021 to 2028.



In recent years, there have been considerable developments in the field of robotics. Robotics offers automation in various pharmaceutical manufacturing processes, such as filling, packaging, and inspection. A few benefits of automation in pharmaceutical manufacturing are improving efficiency in manufacturing, decreasing labor cost, reducing time used for training labors, protecting employees from a hazardous environment, and eliminating the chances of human errors and human contamination. Selective Compliance Assembly Robot Arm (SCARA) robots are used for common pick and place operations. Delta robots are also preferred for high-speed picking and packaging. Parallel robots are used for dispensing, kit assembly, sorting, and light machine tending applications. The pharmaceutical industry has realized the potential of robots for diverse applications in the manufacturing process. Pharmaceutical company benefits from robotic process automation (RPA) because it assists management in formulating strategies in real-time based on consumption trends and other regulatory changes. With the support of cameras on the production line, QualViz processes the information through deep learning and computer vision. As a result, this approach assures that the color, size, and form of each pill on the production line are checked. Thus, the use of robots in the pharmaceutical industry helps improve the overall product quality and speeds up the entire process of production, which enables the industry to meet the ever-growing demand for new drugs. Hence, the benefits offered by robots in the pharmaceutical industry drive the growth of the North America pharmaceutical robots market

In August 2020, the National Institutes of Health launched the Medical Imaging and Data Resource Center (MIDRC) to use artificial intelligence in medical imaging to fight COVID-19. The collaboration was headed by the National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering (NIBIB), part of NIH, which will develop new methods that physicians can use for early discovery and personalized therapies for COVID-19 patients. Covid-19 has tremendously increased awareness of the benefits of automation within the pharmaceutical industry. In this pandemic, it is important to increase pharmaceutical production without compromising quality and safety. Flexible, modular automation enables pharmaceutical companies to increase production safely and to build lines faster and in a more scalable way. As per the Robotic Industries Association (RIA), a group focused on the robotics industry, orders for robots from the North American life sciences companies increased by 69% in 2020 compared to 2019 and is expected to increase further in 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 North America pharmaceutical robots market. Robotics has been adopted extensively in a wide range of industries, such as automotive, atomic energy, defense, space, metals, textiles, and manufacturing. Country like America have adopted robots to clean rooms, manufacturing, and filling. Robotics has opened many avenues and is revolutionizing the industrial scenario. It has the potential to bring superior results as computer systems have brought in all the sectors. However, in recent years, there have been significant improvements compared to several years ago. There is an increase in the number of people who are interested, especially due to robotic competitions frequently held among universities. Foxconn replaced 30% of its workforce when it introduced robots. Also, 1,000 people lost jobs in Vietnam when Adidas shuttered its factory and moved production to “speed factories” in the US.
