Industrial robots were first adopted in the automotive industry in 1960 by GM and were called Unimate. These robots could weld and handle huge payloads. Wider adoption of robots started in 1980 in response to a need to automate applications such as welding, painting, and assembling in the automotive industry. Although robots were expensive, companies were encouraged to use them more frequently in automation processes because of the faster ROI and cost-effectiveness over the long run.
Technavio's analysts forecast the global industrial robotics market in the automotive industry to grow at a CAGR of 6.35% during the period 2016-2020.
