Industry Findings: Demand in the country is consolidating around logistics automation and service-robot pilots as national digitalisation programmes channel recovery funding into industry modernisation. Current sector signals indicate accelerating fleet deployments and regional centres-of-excellence that reduce integration lead times for AMRs and mobile manipulators. A concrete non-vendor structural milestone came via Spain Digital Agenda and Recovery plan update in Feb-2025, which reaffirmed allocations for industrial digital transformation and regional demonstration centres. That policy commitment strengthens procurement pipelines for autonomous intralogistics and hospital logistics projects, prompting enterprises to prioritise interoperable, standards-compliant robots that can plug into funded digitalisation projects and regional pilot consortia.
Industry Player Insights: The Spain sector is shaped by key players such as Robotnik, Kivnon, GMV, and Accerion etc. Regional vendors moved from demonstrators to customer reference deployments. Robotnik launched the RB-ROBOUT mobile manipulator in Jan-2024, advancing on-board payload and manipulation capabilities for industrial use cases. Kivnon released a new mapping/navigation option for its K05 AMR in Mar-2024 to improve high-density material handling in constrained warehouse footprints. These vendor-level steps increase the practical utility of Spanish robotics offerings, pushing local buyers to prefer suppliers that combine robust SLAM/navigation upgrades with demonstrable integration experience in automotive and healthcare clusters.
