The machinery and industrial automation market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $222.22 billion in 2025 to $238.48 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.3%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to factory automation growth, plc adoption, demand for productivity gains, reduction in manual labor, industrial process optimization.
The machinery and industrial automation market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $317.21 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.4%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to ai-driven automation growth, industry 4.0 rollout, demand for connected factories, expansion of robotics adoption, real-time process optimization. Major trends in the forecast period include rapid adoption of industrial robots, expansion of smart automation systems, integration of sensors and actuators, growth of digital control platforms, demand for end-to-end automation.
The increasing adoption of the Internet of Things (IoT) is expected to drive the growth of the machinery and industrial automation market in the coming years. The IoT refers to a network of interconnected devices and objects equipped with sensors, software, and other technologies. Its adoption is growing due to its ability to enhance connectivity, enable data-driven insights, and optimize efficiency across industries. IoT supports machinery and industrial automation by providing seamless connectivity and data exchange, improving operational efficiency, and enabling real-time monitoring and control. For example, the State of IoT Spring 2023 report by IoT Analytics, a Germany-based service provider, indicated that there were 14.3 billion active IoT endpoints, with the number projected to grow 16% in 2023, reaching 16.7 billion active endpoints globally. Therefore, the expanding adoption of IoT is fueling the machinery and industrial automation market.
Leading companies in the machinery and industrial automation market are increasingly focusing on developing products such as industrial automation solutions to enhance profitability. Industrial automation products comprise a range of technologies and devices designed to automate and optimize industrial processes. For instance, in May 2023, Renishaw Inc., a UK-based machine industry company, launched a new product line for industrial automation, including the RCS L-90, RCS T-90, and RCS P-series, all supported by a dedicated software suite. The RCS product line addresses key challenges in the global industrial automation sector, focusing on manual setup, calibration, and maintenance of robots.
