Synthetic oil-based robotics lubricants are widely used in industrial operations and the automotive sector, owing to their advantages. Polyalphaolefin lubricant is the most common synthetic oil utilized in robots in automotive and industrial sectors. It possesses optimum physical and chemical properties, such as high viscosity index, low volatility, low pour point, and thermal stability. The American Petroleum Institute (API) has categorized base oil into 5 groups. Group I, II and III are mineral oils, whereas group IV base oil is fully synthetic. Group IV base oils are high-quality oils used for high-performance applications and low-viscosity motor oils in technically advanced engines. Blending flexibility due to advancements in additive technology and growing fuel efficiency standards are some of the key factors that have the potential to boost sales of high-quality group III base synthetic lubricants. Synthetic lubricants are chemically modified and preferred over mineral oil. Robotics lubricant manufacturers prefer synthetic base oil to reduce dependency on nonrenewable resources such as petroleum and crude oil. Several robotics lubricant manufacturers are focused on research and development of synthetic lubricant formulations to provide improved oxidation stability. Further, advanced lubricants have a major role in reducing carbon emissions during the manufacturing process. In the past few years, end-use industries such as automotive and electrical & electronics have launched various initiatives and policies to reduce carbon footprint and carbon emissions, which is leading to the adoption of synthetic lubricants for robotics applications. Therefore, the adoption of synthetic oil-based robotic lubricants is expected to be a major trend in the South & Central America robotics lubricants market during the forecast period.
In the past few years, South & Central America has witnessed business potential for warehouse and manufacturing automation. For instance, in 2021, ABB Ltd announced its plan to develop SafeMove collaborative robot technology at the manufacturing facility of Nestle SA, Brazil. The company, in collaboration with Nestle SA’s engineering team, developed an ABB IRB 660 robot with SafeMove technology, aimed at improving productivity by 53%. According to the statistical yearbook released by the International Federation of Robotics 2022, robot installations in Brazil were registered at 1,702 units in 2021, with an average annual growth rate of 7% compared to 2016. Further, end-use industries prefer suitable lubrication systems to decrease the wear and tear of robotic components and reduce downtime. Thus, the key factors pertaining to the robotic industry in South & Central America are anticipated to boost the South & Central America robotics lubricants market during the forecast period.
