Step 1
Decide if Robot Manufacturing is the right industry to target
The Robot Manufacturing industry
The Robot Manufacturing industry specifically focuses on businesses involved in the design, development, and production of robots. These robots can range from small, collaborative robots (cobots) designed to work alongside humans in industrial settings to large, complex robots used for tasks such as welding, painting, assembly, and material handling. The defining characteristic is the creation of machines with a degree of autonomy, enabling them to perform tasks without constant human intervention.
What businesses are included
This industry encompasses a wide array of businesses, from startups developing cutting-edge robotic technologies to established companies specializing in industrial robotics and automation solutions. For example, a company that designs and manufactures autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) for warehouse logistics and material handling would fall under this category. Similarly, a business specializing in developing surgical robots for minimally invasive procedures would also be included. The key takeaway is the specific focus on creating robots with varying degrees of autonomy, highlighting the transformative potential of robotics in various industries, including manufacturing, healthcare, logistics, and exploration.
When targeting the Robot Manufacturing industry on LinkedIn, your search will automatically cover all related sub-industries. To maximize the relevance of your leads, you may want to exclude certain sub-industries that don’t align with your ideal customer profile.
Sub-industries included in Robot Manufacturing:
Which businesses are not included
While the Robot Manufacturing industry centers around robot production, it's essential to differentiate it from businesses that utilize robots in their operations but are not involved in their primary design and manufacturing. For instance, a manufacturing company that implements robotic automation on its production line, utilizing pre-built robots, wouldn't be categorized under this industry, as their role is in deploying and integrating robots, not manufacturing them. Similarly, businesses that develop software applications specifically for controlling robots, without being involved in the robot's physical design and production, wouldn't be included. This distinction highlights the specialized expertise required for robot manufacturing, encompassing mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, computer science, and artificial intelligence. It distinguishes robot manufacturers as key drivers of innovation in the robotics field.

Step 3
Run your Sales Navigator search
Setting your lead filters
Open LinkedIn Sales Navigator and select the ‘Leads’ tab. Use the filters on the left side to narrow down your search. Enter 'Robot Manufacturing' in the ‘Industry’ filter, and add the job titles you want to target in the ‘Current job title’ field.
How many leads can I export?
You can export up to 2,500 leads per day from Sales Navigator. If your search results is higher than this limit, consider narrowing your filters or breaking your search results into multiple saved lead lists that can be exported over several days.
Do I have to use LinkedIn Sales Navigator?
