HowToRobot and Robotics Australia Group have announced a partnership aimed at enhancing automation adoption in Australia. With a robot density of 134 robots per 10,000 manufacturing employees, Australia lags behind the global average of 162, according to the International Federation of Robotics. The collaboration focuses on providing AI-driven tools to help businesses articulate their automation projects more effectively.
This initiative is crucial as Australian manufacturing grapples with skilled workforce shortages and the slowest productivity growth in 60 years. By leveraging HowToRobot's platform, companies can develop project descriptions that facilitate funding requests, potentially unlocking significant productivity gains. The Australian government estimates that increased automation could contribute between $170 billion and $600 billion to the GDP by 2030.
Looking ahead, the partners have launched AutomationFinder.com.au, a platform designed to assist Australian businesses in identifying automation opportunities. This site will provide structured project briefs and access to a global network of over 20,000 vetted suppliers, including 500 in Australia. No further timeline was disclosed at the time of publication.
