Food Packaging Robotics Market: Key Drivers, Trends, and Challenges

Based on our research output, there has been a neutral impact on the market growth during and post COVID-19 era. The assurance of safety and quality is notably driving the food packaging robotics market growth, although factors such as lack of skilled workforce may impede market growth. Our research analysts have studied the historical data and deduced the key market drivers and the COVID-19 pandemic impact on the food packaging robotics industry. The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.

Key Food Packaging Robotics Market Driver

One of the key factors driving the food packaging robotics market growth is the assurance of safety and quality. Developments in robotic technology focus on safety parameters. Packaging robots are installed on the assembly line and work in collaboration with industrial workers. These robots can work in multiple areas and directions, due to which they are equipped with multiple safeguards. For instance, e-stop buttons, light curtains, guard switches, safety controllers, and stop buttons are used to provide safety at work. These components monitor the robots and allow them to work independently. The food industry is adopting packaging robots that help industrial workers maintain stringent hygiene and safety standards. Packaging robots are equipped with safety controllers that allow them to monitor the movement of arms. This keeps the movements in control, ensuring the safety of the manual workers in the vicinity. This will further drive the food packaging robotics market during the forecast period.

Key Food Packaging Robotics Market Trend

Flexibility of robots in undertaking multiple tasks is the major trend influencing the food packaging robotics market growth. Robotic technology is becoming highly advanced because of the growing need for automation in the food industry. The incorporation of advanced sensors and vision technology with differential arm movements allows packaging robots to work in different applications. Packaging robots are flexible as they have variable axis movements. In addition, the variable arm size and reachability enable them to work with products of different sizes, weights, and shapes. The incorporation of vision technology in packaging robots enables them to determine the position and speed of the moving objects on the conveyor belt with great precision. Packaging robots can adjust the movement of the arm and payload capacity according to the products on the conveyor belt. These robots can be deployed in picking, palletizing, and packaging operations and allow food manufacturers to execute multiple applications with minimal human intervention.

Key Food Packaging Robotics Market Challenge

Lack of skilled workforce is one of the key challenges hindering food packaging robotics market growth. Human workers need to have knowledge about the working of robots, along with periodic servicing requirements to ensure smooth operations. The lack of technical expertise often deters end-users from adopting robots, as they consider the downtime involved in maintenance tasks as a considerable loss. This poses a challenge, as many end-users hesitate to learn and adopt new technologies for operations. The continuous and repetitive nature of packaging operations involves the integration of data for better decision-making. However, the demographic transition witnessed in countries such as China and Japan due to the growing number of older people is resulting in the non-availability of skilled technicians with knowledge in operating the robots. This factor has largely contributed to the slow adoption of food packaging robots. As a result, the global food packaging robotics market faces a challenge due to the shortage of skilled robotic technicians.

This food packaging robotics market analysis report also provides detailed information on other upcoming trends and challenges that will have a far-reaching effect on the market growth.

COVID Impact and Recovery Analysis

The food packaging robotics market in APAC witnessed certain challenges in 2020 due to the outbreak of COVID-19, which affected many countries in the region, such as China, India, South Korea, and Japan. The outbreak negatively impacted the overall economy of the region, as well as caused supply chains disruptions. To prevent the community spread of the disease in the region, many countries imposed nationwide lockdowns, which resulted in temporary closures of industries, including food manufacturing industries. This led to a decline in the usage of robotic technology in 2020. However, the food manufacturing industry also took proactive measures to reduce the impact of COVID-19 by prioritizing the safety and health of the workers. Therefore, the market in focus has witnessed an increase in the adoption of robotic technology due to the minimization of the number of workers in manufacturing units. Therefore, it is further expected to have a positive impact on the food packaging robotics market in the region during the forecast period.
