Medical Automation Market by Application & by End-User - 2020


Emerging Asia-Pacific countries, including India and China, offer high growth potential for companies engaged in the development and marketing of automated solutions for the healthcare industry. Growing geriatric population; increasing cases of cardiovascular disease (CVD), diabetes, cancer, and orthopedic diseases; rising clinical research; and growing government expenditure on healthcare and life science research are the key factors propelling the growth of the medical automation market in the emerging countries.

On the basis of application, the medical automation market is divided into four segments, namely, diagnostic and monitoring automation (automated image analysis, automated imaging, and point-of-care testing), therapeutic automation (non-surgical automation and surgical automation), laboratory and pharmacy automation (laboratory automation and pharmacy automation), and medical logistics and training (logistic automation and trainers). The medical logistics and training segment is expected to grow at the highest rate in the next five years, owing to high adoption of these automated systems (pneumatic tubes, AGV, RTLS, and RFID) by big hospitals and diagnostic centers.

The global medical automation market over the forecast period of 2015 to 2020. The market is expected to reach USD 55.03 Billion by 2020, at CAGR of 9.5% from 2015 to 2020.

The therapeutic automation market segment holds the largest share in the global medical automation market. This segment is further categorized on the basis of product into non-surgical automation (defibrillators and automated medication systems) and surgical automation (surgical robots, intraoperative imaging, surgical navigation, intelligent operating rooms, and surgical simulators). In 2015, the non-surgical automation segment held a larger share of 72.9% of the global therapeutic automation market. The increasing incidences of various chronic diseases and technological advancements in defibrillators and medication systems are the key factors contributing to the growth of this market segment.
The global medical automation market is divided into four segments on the basis of end users– hospitals and diagnostic centers, pharmacies, research laboratories and institutes, and home/ambulatory care settings and other end users.

The global medical automation market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 9.5% from 2015 to 2020. A number of factors such as continuous advancements in various medical automation technologies; increasing government financial support for medical automation; and growing adoption of automation in laboratory, pharmacy, and medical logistics operations are propelling the growth of the global medical automation market. However, high cost of automation and stringency of regulatory procedures leading to delayed product launches are the key factors restraining the growth of this market.

On the basis of geography, medical automation  market is classified into four regions, namely, North America (U.S. and Canada), Europe, Asia-Pacific, and the Rest of the World. In 2015, the global medical automation market is estimated to be dominated by North America. Large number of ongoing clinical trials in the U.S., high adoption rate of technologically advanced medical devices in this region, and developed healthcare reimbursement structure are contributing to the large share of the North American medical automation market. The Asia-Pacific market is expected to grow at the highest CAGR from 2015 to 2020. Factors such as growing government expenditure on healthcare research, rising number of clinical research activities owing to increasing R&D outsourcing to developing Asian countries, increasing old age population and associated diseases, availability of a large patient pool, and developing healthcare infrastructure are propelling the growth of the Asia-Pacific medical automation market.


New product launches, product approvals, and product enhancements is the primary growth strategy adopted by major players to enhance their positions in the global medical automation market. Moreover, strategies such as partnerships, agreements, and collaborations; geographic expansions; and acquisitions were also adopted by a significant number of market players to strengthen their product portfolios and expand their geographic presence in the market.
Koninklijke Philips N.V. (Netherlands), Siemens AG (Germany), General Electric Company (U.S.), Intuitive Surgical, Inc. (U.S.), Medtronic plc (U.S.), Tecan Group Ltd. (Switzerland), Stryker Corporation (U.S.), Accuray Incorporated (U.S.), Danaher Corporation (U.S.), and Swisslog Holding AG (Switzerland) are some of the key players operating in the global medical automation market.
