The present study explores the research trend and productivity in the field of Mechatronics and the data was downloaded from the Web of Science Database for the period of 2000 – 2017. The study is aims to analysis the data in terms of year wise growth, Most Productivity Authors, Most Productivity Journals, Relative Growth Rate and Doubling time. Further study is also aims to find Form Wise, Language wise and Country wise Distribution of research data. It is evident from the table that highest number of records is published in the year 2015. The growth rate is 0.274753 in the year 2000 and it is decreased up to 0.070893 in the year 2017. The mean relative growth rate of articles for the period of 2000 to 2009 is .1705 and while, 2010 to 2017 it is found to be .1016 correspondingly, on the other hand, doubling time of the articles is 2.5222 in the year 2000 it raises to 9.7753 in the year 2017. It shows an increasing trend. On an average 6.54 citation per articles were observed during the study period and the highest number of citations were cited in the year 2005. Further, it is observed that the polynomial model or linear growth model almost fit in the field of Mechatronics. Katsura S has contributed the highest number of articles (72) during the study period. The Journal of Mechatronics has published the highest number of articles (140) and received the highest number of citations, which is emerged as most productivity journal. The large majority of the publications are published in the form of Proceedings Papers (2374) and the greater majority of the publications published in the English language (3735-97.72). USA (473) and Germany (444) were contributed highest number of publications of the among 3822 publications. Keio University and Tokyo Denki University are the most productivity institution in the field of Mechatronics. It can be concluded that Mechatronics is one of the most emerging fields in Engineering.
