This paper provides a comprehensive review of the robotic potential that is foreseen by researchers in designing future food manufacturing plant. The present day food handling and packaging setup is limited in capacity and output due to manual processing. An optimized protocol to fetch various ingredients and shape them in a final product by passing through various stages in an automated processing plant while simultaneously ensuring high quality and hygienic environment is merely possible by using robotized processing. The review also highlights the possibilities and limitations of introducing these high technology robots in the food sector. A comparison of several robots from different classes is listed with major technical parameters. However, as predicted, a food cyber-physical production system (CPPS) visualizes a closed loop system for the desired output keeping in view various constraints and risks. Human machine interface (HMI) for these machines complies with the industrial safety standards to provide a fail safe production cycle. Various new horizons in research and development of food robots are also highlighted in the upcoming industrial paradigm.

本文对研究人员在设计未来食品制造工厂时预见的机器人潜力进行了全面回顾。由于手动处理，目前的食物处理和包装设置在容量和产量上受到限制。仅通过使用自动化处理，就可以通过在自动化加工厂中经过各个阶段来获取各种成分并将其成型为最终产品的优化协议，同时确保高质量和卫生的环境。审查还强调了在食品领域引入这些高科技机器人的可能性和局限性。列出了几种不同类别的机器人的比较，并列出了主要技术参数。但是，正如预期的那样，食品网络物理生产系统（CPPS）可视化闭环系统，以获取所需输出，同时考虑各种约束和风险。这些机器的人机界面（HMI）符合工业安全标准，以提供故障安全的生产周期。在即将到来的工业范式中，食品机器人的研究和开发也出现了各种新视野。
