At 6.4% CAGR, the MEA Factory Automation Market is speculated to be worth US$ 11,134.40 million by 2028, says Business Market Insights 

According to Business Market Insights' research, the MEA factory automation market was valued at US$ 7,670.72 million in 2022 and is expected to reach US$ 11,134.40 million by 2028, registering a CAGR of 6.4% from 2022 to 2028. Growing collaborative partnerships between companies and automation in mining industry are the critical factors attributed to the market expansion. 

The growing customer need for an automation system encourages companies to produce more advanced solutions. For this, the companies are partnering and collaborating with other companies to cater the customer needs. For instance, in July 2022, ABB Ltd announced that they are collaborating with SKF to automate manufacturing processes. Through this collaboration, the companies will identify and evaluate solutions to improve manufacturing capabilities. Similarly, in July 2022, Siemens announced their collaboration with Geekplus to expand its robotic activities. The companies have grown their collaboration to the second phase of a smart manufacturing automation project. In the second phase, the companies have added more MP1000R moving robots equipped with laser-guided SLAM capabilities to the production line without interrupting operations. Thus, through these partnerships and collaborations, the companies are working on helping their customers improve manufacturing capabilities, thereby offering lucrative growth opportunities for the factory automation market.
