Which robot hardware companies should you be paying attention to right now?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The robot market has long been dominated by a few manufacturers. But, other robot companies are doing some interesting things and are worth your attention.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

There are a lot of robot brands available on the market these days. We think this diversity is a good thing!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the large range of robots can make it difficult to know which robot companies you should pay attention to. if you are in the market for some robotic hardware.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Traditionally, the robotics market has been dominated by what is sometimes known as “The Big 4.” In fact, this refers to the large robotic manufacturers: ABB, Fanuc, KUKA, and Yaskawa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These 4 manufacturers \u2014 and a few other large prominent companies \u2014 have supplied the vast majority of robots to the industry for decades.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You might assume that you should go with one of the large names. But, at RoboDK we believe that a lot of great robot hardware companies are worth your attention. Some of them are new entrants to the market but others have been operating for many years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here is our list of 13 of robot hardware companies to look out for in 2022. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

All of them are available in the RoboDK programming software.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
