Teradyne Benefits From Robotics Growth and Key Partnership
Teradyne is strengthening its robotics position by leveraging its diverse portfolio and focusing on automation through partnerships and technological integration.
In the third quarter of 2024, the company reported 8% growth in Robotics, outperforming its peers in the industrial automation market, which saw declines averaging more than 10%. This growth trajectory can be attributed to Teradyne’s continuous focus on adapting to changing market demands, particularly in the robotics sector.
Further expanding its portfolio in the robotics sector in September 2024, Teradyne Robotics collaborated with Siemens to develop an advanced robotics showcase at MxD (Manufacturing x Digital) in Chicago, a leading hub for digital manufacturing and cybersecurity in the United States. The collaboration will highlight advanced robotics and automation solutions, featuring products from Teradyne Robotics subsidiaries, Universal Robots and MiR.
Despite a tough industrial macro environment, Teradyne outperformed its industrial automation peers, with growth in key areas like UR and MiR. This outperformance was driven by new product launches, such as Universal Robots heavy-payload robots and MiR1200 Pallet Jack, powered by AI and NVIDIA NVDA technology. These product developments helped maintain growth even in difficult conditions.
Teradyne also collaborated with NVIDIA to integrate advanced AI capabilities into its automation solutions. TER’s collaboration with NVIDIA brings new AI capabilities to automation, enhancing UR’s cobots with faster path planning and introducing MiR’s AI-powered Pallet Jack for precise autonomous pallet handling.
