The Global Food Robotics Market is projected to reach a worth USD 3.51 billion by 2027 at a CAGR of 8.9%.
Robots are used immensely in all industrial areas including automotive, healthcare, food processing, agriculture and many others to provide easy in industrial operation. With ongoing development in the manufacturing sector, robots are gaining attention from the food and beverage sector to carry out essential functions such as product packaging and repackaging, production, pelletizing and picking and placing the product in the manufacturing facilities. It is used for rapid and efficient operation at varied temperature, pressure and moisture level without human inference. It also provides higher safety and hygiene without any error, resulting into optimization of the overall food manufacturing and processing operations.
Market Drivers:
The growing global population is generating higher demand for food. Additionally, the consumer’s preference is shifting towards processed and packaged food, which demands for more skilled workforce requiring high level of training to meet the industrial food safety standards, escalating the overall cost. Also, increasing labor shortage, higher labor wages with high probability of human errors can be controlled through automating the process. Increasing pressure on the food manufacturers regarding implementation of advanced technologies to scale up the production standards and profit margin is driving the demand for automation. Automation aids in packaging, processing and placing of delicate and varied food products in extreme conditions without human interference, is further fueling the adoption of robots for food application.
Hygiene and safety is the crucial aspect of the food industry, which can be hampered through bacterial contamination occurred through human intervention. As per the Center of Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), food borne diseases accounts for 5,000 deaths along with hospitalizations of around 350,000 populations annually in US. To overcome this scenario, food manufacturers are adopting robots and automation. In addition to this, US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) imposed Food Safety Modernization Act (FEMA) for food manufacturing and processing plants for maintain product safety and trace contamination in entire food processing chain for identifying and avoid food contamination.
Market Restraint:
Robots are gaining importance in the food processing and manufacturing sector. However, the adoption of the robots in food industry is hampering owing to high installation and maintenance cost associated with the robots. Due to high cost, companies often prefers manual or labor driven monotonous operation, where robots can act as an excellent substitute. The initial investment associated with imbedding the automation and robotics technology into the processes across food facilities, which hinders its adoption.
