2. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Robotics is a combination of different engineering skills for the application of robots. Robots are
the artificial agent which obey human orders, protect its existence without harming the environment.
They operate using devices as sensors, controllers, cameras, software modules, and locomotors.
Robotics can be classified into industrial robotics and service robotics.
Warehouse Robots are the one used for activities such as palletizing, replenishment, assembling,
disassembling, consolidation, sortation, packaging, labeling, inspection, storage etc. The warehouse
robotics is segmented on the basis of type, function, industry with geography. Robotic arms, Gantry
robots, Picking Carousels, Labelers, Conveyors, Automatic Guided Vehicle (AGV), Robotic
Forklifts, and Palletizers are some robots used for warehousing activities. In wide range of industries
such as Food and Beverage, Automotive, Paper and Print, Medical, Defense, Pharmaceutical,
Textile, Chemical, Ports, Automated Retail, Electrical and Electronics, Mining, Construction, Plastic
and Rubber, Oil and Gas, Agriculture and at Airport is the application of these robots are found.
Sales of such robot are estimated to grow at 11.3% CAGR.
In last 10 decades Warehouse Robotics has found to be growing and expanding their Function in
different Industries. While we talk about Warehouse Robotics Function in regions like U.S., China,
Japan, India, Europe etc., are countries upgrading the technology, sophisticated automation and
giving rise to the robotic Functions in industry such as Warehouse Robotics.
