Manufacturing setups have primarily deployed robots in various processes on the shop floor to reduce human effort and improve productivity, throughput, and product quality. However, in recent times, digitalisation and the Industry 4.0 revolution have driven increased adoption of automation and robotics on shop floor.
Additionally, another area where global organisations are increasingly adopting robots is the warehouse and intralogistics sector. Collaborative robots have further contributed to increased adoption of robots in shop floor operations. The revenue is expected to grow at an annual CAGR of over 15% until 2027.
Addressing safety concerns
The rise of automation and robotics, owing to demands of manufacturing setups becoming increasingly digitalised, has increased safety concerns on the shop floor. There are reports of crushing, trapping, impact, or collision accidents caused by malfunctioning robots. Furthermore, digitalised operations have led to convergence of Information Technology (IT) and Operational Technology (OT), and the shop floor has become a playground for hackers.
Cyber threats and attacks have drastically intensified since the pandemic, with cybercrime rising by 600%. Pilz India provides safe and secure automation solutions and services to make manufacturing setups and shop floors more digital, connected, flexible, efficient, safe, and secure.
