The aerospace robotics market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $4.07 billion in 2023 to $4.64 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.2%. The growth observed in the historic period can be attributed to various factors, including global economic growth, an increase in commercial air traffic, the rise of automation, a growing demand for product customization, and challenges related to labor shortages. These combined influences have played a significant role in shaping the positive trajectory witnessed during that time.
The aerospace robotics market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $7.52 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.8%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to various factors, including the increasing use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), a growing demand for space exploration, rising investments in research and development, and shorter production cycles. Key trends expected during this period encompass the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning, advancements in swarm robotics, the promotion of human-robot collaboration, the utilization of exoskeletons and wearable robotics, and an emphasis on collaborations and partnerships within the industry. These trends reflect the dynamic evolution of aerospace robotics and the ongoing efforts to leverage cutting-edge technologies for improved efficiency and innovation.
The surge in commercial air traffic is anticipated to steer the aerospace robotics market in the upcoming years. Aerospace robotics, known for their precision and high-performance capabilities in constructing aircraft components, are vital in processes like engine manufacturing, airframe drilling, and painting, as well as precise fiber cutting and placement. The rise of middle-class populations and the emergence of low-cost carriers in developing nations are projected to increase airline activity, subsequently augmenting the demand for new aircraft during this period. For example, Boeing's commercial market outlook from 2020 to 2039 predicted that India's domestic air passenger market could double in size by 2030, leading to an additional need for 2,200 new commercial aircraft in the next two decades, thereby propelling growth in the aerospace robotics market.
The increased adoption of cost-effective and fuel-efficient aircraft is set to bolster the aerospace robotics market. These aircraft types offer optimal operational efficiency and lower fuel consumption, ultimately reducing operational costs for airlines and operators. Aerospace robotics contribute to the streamlining of manufacturing processes, diminishing labor expenses, and enhancing precision, thereby assisting in the production of cost-effective and fuel-efficient aircraft. This trend is visible in the aviation industry where the need for fuel-efficient aircraft is evident, as shown by the Department of Transportation's Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) data in June 2022. Furthermore, Boeing's Commercial Market Outlook (CMO) 2022 indicates a growing demand for fuel-efficient aircraft, projected to reach 41,000 by 2041, emphasizing the impact on the aerospace robotics market.
