The outlook for the robotics market in North America in the second half of 2025 remains positive, with moderate growth expected in line with trends observed in the first half of the year.

📌 Forecast for industrial robotics According to industry analysis, the North American industrial robotics market is expected to grow at a compound annual rate (CAGR) of 10.1 percent through 2030, driven by investments in automation, reshoring initiatives, and the widespread adoption of Industry 4.0-related technologies. The most dynamic applications include welding, material handling, assembly and painting, with strong demand in the automotive, electronics and pharmaceutical sectors.

🤖 Collaborative and intelligent robots expanding. Collaborative robots (cobots) and intelligent robots are gaining ground due to their flexibility and ability to safely interact with humans. The market for intelligent robots is expected to reach $26.5 billion in 2025, with a CAGR of more than 33 percent through 2037. This growth is underpinned by the convergence of artificial intelligence and robotics to simplify complex workflows and improve productivity.

📈 Driving sectors and structural factors

Labor shortages and rising wages continue to incentivize automation.
Reshoring initiatives push companies to invest in robotic solutions to maintain competitiveness.
Digital transformation and the adoption of industrial IoT encourage the integration of more autonomous and intelligent robots.

🔮 Overall outlook for late 2025
With stable demand in traditional industries and accelerated growth in collaborative and intelligent applications, analysts expect the market to exceed 2024 levels, with mid-to-high single-digit growth by the end of the year. The resilience demonstrated in the first half of the year, combined with the diversification of applications, suggests a strategic consolidation of automation as a pillar of modern manufacturing.
