North American companies started the year by purchasing the most robots ever in a single quarter, according to the Association for Advancing Automation. Q1 robot sales grew by 28 percent (in number of units) and 43 percent (in value) over the first quarter of 2021, and 7 percent and 25 percent, respectively, over the previous best quarter--Q4 of 2021.
