根據 Mordor Intelligence 預測,實驗室機械臂的市場規模預計將從 2025 年的 26.4 億美元成長到 2026 年的 27.9 億美元,到 2031 年將達到 37 億美元,2026 年至 2031 年的複合年成長率為 5.81%。

本報告按機械臂類型(多關節臂、雙臂、並聯臂及其他)、應用領域(藥物研發、數位成像及其他)、有效載荷能力(5公斤以下、5-15公斤、15公斤以上)、最終用戶(製藥和生物技術公司、學術研究機構及其他)以及地區進行細分。市場預測以美元計價。
目前,藥物研發流程宣傳活動需要處理 10 萬至 100 萬種化合物,如此龐大的數量使得人工移液難以持續。羅氏公司於 2024 年推出的 uMed 聲波液體處理系統,將亞納升級的液體分裝與機器視覺檢測相結合,可減少 40% 的試劑用量,並利用多關節機械臂實現 384孔盤的全自動處理。美國食品藥物管理局(FDA) 的 2024 年策略計畫指出,自動化、高性能篩檢對於加速臨床實驗藥物的申報至關重要,並鼓勵實驗室投資於符合審計要求的機器人。公共機構也紛紛效仿;美國國立衛生研究院 (NIH) 的轉化科學中心目前正在使用一條機器人生產線,每天測試 1 萬種化合物,這表明,如果資金充足,學術研究機構也能達到商業化水平的處理能力。因此,用於支援高性能篩檢的實驗室機械臂的市場引入在商業和學術領域持續成長。
協作式機械臂使技術人員能夠安全地與機器人並肩工作,無需使用完整的安全籠。這項優勢節省了占地面積,並將安裝成本降低了約 40%。電裝 Wave 的「COBOTTA PRO」於 2025 年 1 月發布,其接觸壓力可達 10 牛頓,符合 ISO/TS 15066 的力限制標準,目前正被亞洲各地的製藥無塵室迅速採用。優傲機器人 (Universal Robots) 的「UR20」已安裝在 200 多個製藥生產基地,面積僅為 245 毫米,卻能舉起 20 公斤的重物,從而釋放了寶貴的工作空間。歐洲「附件 1」無菌指南和修訂後的 ISO/TS 標準將驗證週期從 18 個月縮短至 12 個月或更短,加速了義大利和德國灌裝包裝廠的採用。這些安全性和合規性的提升為協作式機器人 7.56% 的複合年成長率奠定了基礎,並進一步增強了實驗室機械臂市場的成長勢頭。
一台符合ISO 17025標準的無塵室六軸機械手臂通常售價超過30萬美元,而服務合約每年還要額外增加12%至15%的成本。依賴三年期NIH R01津貼的學術實驗室難以撥付如此巨額的資金,因此往往更傾向於採用人工操作流程。此外,ISO 15189認證要求每半年進行一次重量法校準,每次校準費用高達1.2萬美元,並且需要技術人員耗費約60小時。占美國新創企業70%的小規模生技公司缺乏足夠的資金將檢測工作外包給合約研究組織(CRO)。 「地平線歐洲」津貼要求30%至40%的成本分攤,這減緩了南歐和東歐成員國購買協作機器人的速度。這些經濟障礙持續限制實驗室機械臂市場的短期普及。
到2025年,關節型機器人系統將佔據實驗室機械臂市場40.58%的佔有率,這得益於其亞50微米的精度和六自由度性能,使其適用於微孔盤處理。雙臂機器人仍屬於小眾技術,可實現並行操作,並將篩檢週期縮短高達30%。並行連桿結構在大型診斷實驗室的管瓶封蓋任務中,尤其擅長高速取放作業。協作機器人成長最快,年複合成長率達7.33%,這主要得益於製造商對無籠式ISO 7級和8級無塵室的維修。發那科(FANUC)的CRX單元可在偵測附近工作人員的同時完成條碼掃描和封條移除等流程,符合機械指令的限制。在工業領域,計劃於2026年修訂的IEC 61010-2-061標準預計將明確安全標準,並進一步加速該標準在協作機器人領域的應用。在實驗室機械臂市場中,預計到 2028 年,協作機器人的市場規模將超過關節平台。
協作機器人正日益普及,因為它們能降低約 40% 的安裝成本,縮短試運行週期,並能適應不斷變化的工作流程。製藥廠正朝著個人化醫療的方向發展,因此非常重視能在數小時內重新部署的協作機器人。安川馬達的 HC 系列透過整合機器視覺來區分人手和實驗室設備,從而避免夾傷事故。科研津貼有限的大學優先考慮示教器操作的便利性,因此像 Opentrons 的 OT-2 這樣的輕型機器人更受青睞。這些趨勢清晰地表明,協作設計如今已成為更廣泛的實驗室機械臂市場中各廠商藍圖的核心。
預計到2025年,藥物研發領域將佔銷售額的32.35%,但如今基因組學和蛋白質組學領域對樣品製備的需求已超過這一比例,複合年成長率高達6.86%。像Illumina的NovaSeq X Plus這樣的定序儀需要機器人來運送384孔盤,這些機器人可在90分鐘內完成熱處理、磁珠純化和螢光測量等工序,從而減少80%的人工勞動。使用Orbitrap Astral設備的蛋白質體學實驗室利用機器人採集2µL的液體,避免了交叉污染。臨床診斷中心已在ISO 5級生物安全櫃中部署了類似的機械臂來處理呼吸道樣本,確保工作人員的安全。包括全切片組織病理學在內的數位影像技術,利用機械臂每小時可處理200張切片。系統生物學研究團隊正在使用機器人微流體技術培養類器官,以研究藥物代謝。總體而言,這些高精度任務正在擴大實驗室機械臂的市場規模,尤其是在基因組學和蛋白質組學設施中。
美國食品藥物管理局(FDA) 關於伴隨診斷的指南建議使用自動化檢體製備來降低分析前變異性。因此,力求獲得美國病理學家協會 (CAP) 認證的實驗室更傾向於選擇能夠產生電子審計日誌的系統。這項監管要求,加上基因組定序成本的下降,推動了基因組機器人市場兩位數的成長。供應商現在提供帶有預校準運動文件的樣品製備盒,使用戶更容易採用。隨著應用範圍的擴大,實驗室機械臂市場在多組體學科學領域的戰略地位正進一步鞏固。
預計到2025年,北美將佔全球銷售額的34.05%,反映了波士頓、舊金山灣區和三角研究園區等生命科學中心的集中。美國國立衛生研究院(NIH)在2025財政年度撥款12億美元用於共用設備,資助協作機器人以支持轉化腫瘤學(癌症治療的臨床應用)計畫。加拿大國家研究委員會(NRC)推出了一項5000萬加元(3700萬美元)的“智慧實驗室舉措”,旨在將政府機構的生產力提高30%。墨西哥哈利斯科州和墨西哥城的製藥廠正在實施自動化管瓶填充流程,以符合美國現行藥品生產品質管理規範(cGMP),從而產生區域性連鎖反應。這些因素共同鞏固了北美在實驗室機械臂市場的主導地位。
預計到2025年,歐洲將佔據約27.82%的市場佔有率,這主要得益於設備升級,而設備升級又源於對無菌法規和數據完整性的日益重視(詳見附件1) 。英國已向弗朗西斯·克里克研究所和惠康桑格研究所津貼4,000萬英鎊(約5,100萬美元),用於基因組學自動化。德國弗勞恩霍夫網路於2024年引進了用於培養基製備的協作機器人,而義大利和西班牙已將無菌填充和精加工能力轉移回國內,以應對疫情造成的供應衝擊。這些投資確保了歐洲在協作安全標準方面保持領先地位,從而鞏固了全部區域實驗室機械臂市場的價值。
預計到2031年,亞太地區將以6.78%的複合年成長率成長,成為全球成長最快的地區。這主要得益於世界各國政府對生物安全實驗室和智慧製造試點計畫的投資。中國重點發展合成生物學,並撥款30億元人民幣(約4.2億美元)用於重點學術機構的機器人自動化建造。印度生物技術部啟動了一項1.5億美元的津貼,用於疫苗實驗室的現代化改造,以符合該國的疫苗自給自足目標。大型製藥企業正在利用協作機器人維修工廠,以應對人手不足。韓國已投資800億韓元(約6,000萬美元)興建其國家細胞治療中心。
