REPORT HIGHLIGHT
Robotics and Automation Actuators Market size was valued at US$ 26,407.5 Million in 2025, expanding at a CAGR of 12.6% from 2026 to 2033.
Robotics and automation actuators are defined as devices that are used to change energy into motion (linear or rotary). Robotics and automation actuators are used to guide the robot, which often uses motors to rotate the wheels of the robot or the joints of the robot arm or open and close the robot gripe.
The different types of robotics and automation actuators consist of rotary actuators and linear actuators. The rotary actuators market segment consists of the output device of the fluid power systems which oscillates in a certain finite angular displacement less than one complete revolution. Some of the actuations include electric, pneumatic, and hydraulic actuators which help in process automation and robotics. Some of the end-user verticals consist of food & beverages, power generation, chemicals, paper & plastics, pharmaceuticals & healthcare, automotives, aerospace & defense, electronics & electrical, and others.
Robotics and Automation Actuators Market- Market Dynamics
Increasing Demand For Industrial Robots To Accelerate Market Expansion
The rising demand for industrial robots is anticipated to propel the Robotics and Automation Actuators market to greater heights. The reason behind this expectation lies in the growing need for systems, as well as actuators for movements and precision tasks at manufacturing and industrial facilities. For example, in September 2026, based on the information provided by the International Federation of Robotics (Org), the number of installed industrial robots increased by 9%, amounting to 5 million industrial robots in 2025, according to the International Federation of Robotics (IFR). In 2025, there were 600,000 industrial robots installed in the world; this figure rose by 11% compared to the previous year.
According to IFR, the global demand for robots will increase by 9% in 2026 and reach 655,000 units, as well as 806,000 units in 2029. These trends are associated with demographic changes, relocation of production sites, and a shortage of skilled laborers worldwide. These trends are accelerating automation adoption and increasing demand for advanced robotics and automation actuators.
Robotics and Automation Actuators Market- Segmentation Analysis:
The Global Robotics and Automation Actuators Market is segmented on the basis of Type, Application, Vertical, Control Type, Actuation, Sales Channel, and Region.
Among the given actuator types, linear actuators account for a prominent share in robotics and automation applications due to the fact that they provide precise linear motion and positioning. Linear actuators are employed in automatic measurements and position control due to their capability to provide controlled linear motion. In June 2025, Thomson Industries upgraded its Electrak® HD smart electric linear actuator with position-based synchronization to facilitate load sharing and coordination of motion in automation and motion control applications. These are influencing the efficiency and synchronization of automated robotic functions.
Robotics and Automation Actuators Market- Geographical Insights
North America holds key positions in the Robotics and Automation Actuators market, supported by strong manufacturing industries as well as governmental policies that promote the use of the Industry 4.0 strategy. For instance, in October 2025, according to the NIH Gov, Industry 4.0 consists of the use of different technologies such as artificial intelligence, the internet of things, big data analytics, cloud computing, automation based on artificial intelligence, robotics, and cyber-physical systems to achieve more efficiencies in the process of manufacturing.
It was observed that implementation of the Industry 4.0 approach helped to achieve a 38% increase in the productivity of an office building project. According to the report, automation at a high level of functionality, manufacturing productivity, productivity gains via computerization, and production optimization are required. These technologies enhance manufacturing efficiency through automation, productivity improvements, and intelligent production optimization.
Germany Robotics and Automation Actuators market - Country Insights
Germany held the major share because of the highly developed industry sector and growing consumer acceptance of the automation technology they provide in August 2025. According to the Trade Gov, Germany is home to around 100,000 IT firms providing employment to around 1.189 billion people. The ICT market in Germany has motion revenues worth USD 253,200 million, which grew by 3.3%, up by USD 10,200 million. Further, the report states that digital factories, IoT, AI, integrated systems, and ERP are some of the important ICT sectors in Germany, indicating the need for automation technologies in Germany. The report further states that 53% of German businesses were planning to make investments in AI in 2025, with 55% of these firms expecting to make investments in amounts that would be higher by 40%. These trends are strengthening Germany’s industrial automation ecosystem and accelerating adoption of advanced technologies.
Robotics and Automation Actuators Market- Competitive Landscape:
The Robotics and Automation Actuators market features prominent players such as ABB, Rockwell Automation, Moog, SMC, and MISUMI. Such companies have been working towards developing actuators that will aid in the automation and robotic operations. In June 2025, Rockwell Automation made a move to extend its technology partnership with Autonox Robotics through incorporating Autonox\'s sCara robotic kinematics to the Rockwell Automation Technology Partner Program. The sCara kinematics will be compatible with the Rockwell Automation\'s Kinetix platform, and there was an intention to integrate it with Emulate3D and Unified Robot Control to make simulation and robotic programming possible. These developments strengthen integrated actuator solutions for flexible, efficient, and scalable industrial automation applications.
Recent Developments:
- In June 2026, Moog and Milrem Robotics jointly demonstrated their solution combining the HAVOC 8x8 Robotic Combat Vehicle by Milrem with the Reconfigurable Integrated-Weapon Platform by Moog. The partnership between the two companies brought together the autonomous robotic vehicle technologies with Moog’s high-precision motion and actuation technologies.
- In April 2025, the MISUMI Group announced its acquisition of Fictiv Inc. for about USD 350 million. Through this acquisition, the digital manufacturing technology of MISUMI would be expanded to provide custom mechanical parts and would cover the field of robotics and factory automation.
