LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Technavio analysts forecast the global robotics market in the mining industry to grow at a CAGR of around 27% during the period 2018-2022, according to their latest market research report.
The adoption of innovative business models is one of the major trends being witnessed in the market. Vendors are expected to increasingly opt for Robotics as a Service (RaaS), a business model in which robots are leased on a monthly or hourly basis. The providers also include system integration services such as upgrading and maintenance. Apart from leasing robots, vendors can also leverage technologies such as cloud computing to improve their offerings through services such as real-time monitoring of robots.

In this report, Technavio analysts highlight the increase in technology investment by mining companies as a key factor contributing to the growth of the global robotics market in the mining industry:
Increase in technology investment by mining companies
The global mining industry has been seeing a slump in the growth in recent years. But, growing investments by mining companies in technologies such as robotics to enhance productivity and improve the workers’ safety will help recover from the steep turndown. Challenges such as falling commodity prices, the lack of skilled workers, and escalating operational costs have been restricting the growth of the mining industry.
According to a senior analyst at Technavio for robotics, “Mining companies realize the hazards and risks that human personnel face due to dangers posed by elements such as fire, falling rock, entrapment, and cave-ins. The health implications of mining such as the risk of lung disease cannot be understated. The introduction of robotics in mining could eliminate 11000 to 13500 deaths per year caused during mining operations.”
