The global automated liquid handling market growth is driven by the increasing need for personalized drugs, rising research activities for advancements in life sciences, genomics, and drug development, rising adoption of laboratory automation, rising clinical trials along with the increasing number of research studies in the biopharmaceutical industry, and technological advancement.

The automated liquid handling market was worth USD 1,181.82 million in the year 2022. The market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 8.12%, earning revenues of around USD 2,580.45 million by the end of 2032.

Market Overview:

Automated Liquid Handling systems perform a number of liquid handling tasks in laboratories Typically liquid handling robots are used for pipetting, microplate washing, and sample preparation. Pipetting workstations, pipetting robots, and Liquid Handlers are the common names for automated liquid handling systems. They perform the programmed transfer of liquid volumes between multiple source and destination units, but they may also perform temperature incubation, mixing and magnetic or Hoover separations.

Automated liquid handling equipment comes in a variety of shapes and sizes for use in various fields. These devices employ a motorized pipette or syringe coupled to a robotic arm to discharge a predetermined volume of liquid or sample into a specific container. To meet specific needs, some models include additional laboratory devices and can execute additional operations, such as heater-cooler plates (link).

There are several advantages to using automated liquid handling in a laboratory setting. Firstly, as automated liquid handling employs cutting-edge robotic technology, the chance of human mistakes is considerably reduced. These devices produce exceptionally consistent and exact results, and the possibility of error is substantially lower than with manual liquid handling. Furthermore, this technology eliminates the need for human lab technicians to undertake the repetitive and occasionally tedious duties associated with manual liquid handling. This not only saves valuable lab technicians' time for other activities such as sample analysis, but it is also more cost-effective. Lowering error margins and freeing up lab technicians for other activities will make the process much more efficient and cost-effective. Automated liquid handling also helps in reducing contamination and offers constant results running 24 hours 7 days a week. 

The market is expected to be driven by the development of sophisticated automated liquid-handling workstations for non-contact dispensing. The development and commercialization of automated workstations by prominent market players in the automated liquid handling systems market are further expected to boost the use of these instruments.

Additionally, the market has grown as a result of the adaptability and flexibility of lab automation systems and technological enhancement in automated liquid handling systems. Furthermore, the rapid innovations in automated liquid handling are rising operational efficiency, deployment of reagents, and cost-effectiveness is projected to fuel the global automated liquid handling market during the forecast period.
