The global automated liquid handling market size reached USD 1,155.3 Million in 2024. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach USD 2,149.9 Million by 2033, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 6.79% during 2025-2033. The growing need for accuracy in laboratories to minimize human errors is stimulating the market.

Automated liquid handling solutions comprise automated pipetting systems and microplate washers for dispensing and sampling liquids in tubes or wells. They also include control systems for managing the movement of robotic arms, washing stations to clean dispensing heads, sensors for providing feedback information to control systems and maintaining accuracy, and dispensing heads for controlling the flow of liquids into vessels. Besides this, they offer precision sample preparation for high throughput screening/sequencing (HTC) and powder weighing. At present, automated liquid handling solutions are available in varied shapes and sizes with different capabilities, configurations, and accessories across the globe.

Automated Liquid Handling Market Trends:

Increasing preferences for personalized medicines and targeted therapies among patients, along with the rising need for improving throughput while maintaining precision, accuracy, and repeatability in laboratories, represent one of the key factors impelling the growth of the market. Moreover, automated liquid handling solutions are widely used for screening, bioassays, liquid weighing, deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) sequencing, and automated drug discovery. In addition, these systems can perform various liquid handling tasks, save labor costs, free up resources, and help focus on analysis. Furthermore, automated liquid handling solutions are gaining traction over manual sample processing as they provide improved accuracy, speed, and throughput and ensure precision and repeatability. Apart from this, leading market players are offering solutions to fully automated workflows and cater consistent results for bioassays, ranging from low-throughput pipetting protocols to high-throughput systems integrated with sample storage. They also offer barcode scanning options and can verify sample transfers with a traceable, digital-audit trail. These innovations are anticipated to create a positive influence on the market in the upcoming years.
