Market Challenges

  • Small- and medium-scale laboratories typically handle a lower volume of samples and focus on specific applications, such as diagnosis and testing of biological samples. Due to limited budgets, staff, and planning, automation is not a priority for these laboratories. Additionally, they often lack the necessary floor space for large-scale automation systems. In contrast, large-scale facilities can afford advanced automated solutions for processes like chemically relevant compound profiling, high-content screening, and large-scale cell culture development. However, small- and medium-scale laboratories are hesitant to invest in these technologically advanced products due to high maintenance and service costs related to laboratory informatics solutions. The lack of knowledge among professionals managing these laboratories regarding the benefits of automation further hinders adoption. These factors limit the growth of the global laboratory automation systems market during the forecast period.
  • The Laboratory Automation Systems market is witnessing significant growth due to the increasing demand for automated solutions in various industries such as healthcare, food safety, and research. However, challenges persist in this market, including physical strain on lab personnel, miniaturization requirements in microbiology and biotechnology, and the need for accurate data analysis in clinical chemistry. To address these challenges, automated systems are being adopted for tasks like liquid handling, data management, and sample preparation. Government legislation, regulatory requirements, and budget constraints are also driving the market for automated systems. The total automation segment, including automated workstations and robotic systems, is experiencing high demand, especially in diagnostics, drug discovery, genomics, and proteomics. Customization services are essential to meet the unique needs of laboratories, whether high volume or specialized in forensics or healthcare applications. The market is expected to continue growing, offering benefits such as reduced repetitiveness, human intervention, time cycle, and improved data quality.
