Inspection Robots Market by Type (Stationary, Mobile), Application (Visual, Ultrasonic, Photogrammetry, Laser Scanning, Thermal, Quality Inspection), End User (End Use Industry, Inspection Services) and Geography-Global Forecast to 2031.
The research report titled, 'Inspection Robots Market by Type (Stationary, Mobile), Application (Visual, Ultrasonic, Photogrammetry, Laser Scanning, Thermal, Quality Inspection), End User (End Use Industry, Inspection Services) and Geography-Global Forecast to 2031, provides an in-depth analysis of the inspection robots market across five major geographies and emphasizes on the current market trends, market sizes, market shares, recent developments, and forecasts till 2031. The inspection robots is projected to reach $5.6 billion by 2031, at a CAGR of 22.7% from 2024 to 2031.
The growth of this market is attributed to the rising need to assess the structural integrity of aging infrastructure and assets, increasing demand for standard quality products, and increasing labor costs for inspection activities. However, high initial costs and maintenance costs are restraining the growth of this market. In addition, the increasing use of robots for inspection in insurance sectors and the adoption of robots for inspections by MRO services are expected to create significant opportunities for this market. Complexities in the integration of inspection robots in hazardous environments and scenarios challenge this market's growth.
The global inspection robots market is segmented based on type (stationary and mobile robots), application (visual inspection, ultrasonic inspection, photogrammetry, laser scanning, thermal inspection, radiography inspection, alternating current field measurement, tangential eddy current array, and other applications), end user (industry and inspection services), and geography. The study also evaluates industry competitors and analyzes the regional and country-level markets.
Based on type, the global inspection robots market is segmented into stationary and mobile robots. In 2024, the stationary robot segment is expected to account for a larger share of the global inspection robots market. The large market share of this segment is attributed to the rising need to meet specified quality standards, high efficiency with reduced downtimes provided by stationary robots, greater occupational safety, and intelligent data analysis.
However, the mobile robots segment is projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The flexibility provided by mobile robots to cover a large infrastructure area to inspect by a single robot, the capabilities of mobile robots to inspect critical and hazardous areas, growing adoption of mobile robots in inspection services for oil and gas industries are the major factors driving the growth of this segment.
Based on application, the global inspection robots market is segmented into visual inspection, ultrasonic inspection, photogrammetry, laser scanning, thermal inspection, radiography inspection, alternating current field measurement, tangential eddy current array, and other applications. In 2024, the visual inspection segment is expected to account for the largest share of the global inspection robots market. Visual inspection is a common method that is widely used to inspect a variety of qualities, such as the presence of fractures, dimension measurement, and coating uniformity. Visual inspection comprises of visual inception of ground, product, and infrastructure carried out by smart cameras mounted on robots. The need to reduce human intervention in dangerous and critical environments, initiatives to launch robotic inspection systems in the market, and the rising need to improve the production quality of electronic components and increase product reliability contribute to this segment's large share.
Based on end user, the global inspection robots market is segmented into industry and inspection services. In 2024, the industry segment is expected to account for the largest share of the inspection robots market. The large market share of this segment is attributed to the growing demand for visual inspection, increased demand for high-quality standard products, adoption of robots for inspection of product quality, and the growing need to match dynamic production across manufacturing industries, reduce quality inspection times, and streamline workflows. The industry segment is further classified into automotive, semiconductor & electronics, food and beverage, aerospace and defense, machinery & metal, pharmaceutical, BFSI, and other industries.
However, the inspection services segment is projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The growth of this segment is driven by the rising demand for inspection of critical and high-value infrastructure, the growing need for robotic inspection in the oil, gas, and petrochemical industry, and the growing adoption of mobile and remote automated inspection robots by the inspection service industry.
Based on geography, the global inspection robots market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa. In 2024, North America is expected to account for the largest share of the inspection robots market. The large share of this market is attributed to the growing demand for high-quality products, the growing cost of labor, tight deadlines of manufacturing industries, increasing adoption of automation and advanced technologies, and favorable initiatives by the market players.
