Industrial Robotics Marke Key Trends
Articulated Robots Dominate, Collaborative Units Surge
Articulated robots held approximately 67% market share in 2024 and are expected to maintain dominance through 2030. At the same time, collaborative robots (cobots) are expanding their role in industrial environments, with forecasts indicating 14.0% CAGR from 2025 to 2030. Cobots, capable of working safely alongside humans without protective cages, are particularly useful for small and mid-sized manufacturers facing labour shortages.

Smart Factories Underpinned by AI and IIoT
The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) into factory floors is enabling smarter, more efficient robotic systems. These technologies provide real-time sensing, predictive maintenance, and dynamic response capabilities. While AI accelerates robot adaptability in North America, Europe, and parts of Asia, China and South Korea are prioritizing subsidies under state-driven plans.

Payload Trends: Demand for Versatility Rises
The 16-225 kg payload category captured around 42% of the market in 2024. Meanwhile, lighter robots those weighing up to 15 kg are forecast to grow at 15.2% CAGR through 2030. This shift highlights the growing demand for flexible, lightweight automation solutions, particularly in sectors like food processing and electronics.

Material Handling and Inspection Lead Applications
Material handling accounts for one-third of market revenue in 2024, driven by logistics and warehouse automation. Meanwhile, quality inspection systems are growing swiftly, with a 13.8% CAGR projected to 2030. Manufacturers are leveraging robots with embedded vision systems and machine learning to ensure consistency and reduce defects.
