Motion control software in robotics is a specialized tool designed to manage and coordinate a robot's movements. It ensures that the robot performs tasks with precision, efficiency, and in alignment with its intended operations. This software regulates various aspects of a robot's movement, such as speed, direction, and position.
The main types of motion control software include pick and place, painting, hold and rotate, drilling, striking, and others. Pick and place software directs robots to handle objects by picking them up and placing them in specified locations. The software supports various motion types, including linear, rotary, oscillatory, and omnidirectional, and is compatible with different robot types such as articulated, polar, cylindrical, Cartesian, SCARA, and others. These systems are applied in various fields, including industrial robots, medical robots, and consumer robots, and are used by end-users in manufacturing industries, healthcare, oil and gas, research academia, and other sectors.

The motion control software in robotics market size has grown exponentially in recent years. It will grow from $13.85 billion in 2023 to $16.93 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 22.2%. The historical growth can be attributed to a rise in demand for robotics within the industrial sector, an increased need for precision in manufacturing, growing adoption of robotics across various industries, the advent of Industry 4.0, enhanced software capabilities, a greater need for efficient production processes, and the adoption of robots in the healthcare sector.
The motion control software in robotics market size is expected to see exponential growth in the next few years. It will grow to $38.17 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 22.5%. The anticipated growth during the forecast period can be attributed to the increasing automation in manufacturing, a rising demand for precision in robotic operations, the expansion of collaborative robots (cobots), growing adoption in the automotive and electronics industries, and a heightened push for Industry 4.0 initiatives. Key trends for this period include the integration of AI in motion control software, adoption of real-time processing capabilities, advanced machine learning algorithms, developments in cloud-based motion control solutions, and the adoption of edge computing in robotics.
The increasing automation in the manufacturing and automotive industries is expected to drive growth in the motion control software market for robotics. Automation in these industries involves leveraging advanced technologies such as robotics, artificial intelligence (AI), and machine learning to perform tasks more efficiently. This trend is driven by factors including enhanced productivity, cost reduction, continuous risk assessment, greater energy efficiency, and shifting demographics. Motion control software plays a crucial role in this automation by precisely directing robot movements, allowing for complex tasks to be performed with high accuracy and repeatability, which in turn increases efficiency, minimizes errors, and optimizes production processes. For example, in 2023, the International Federation of Robotics, a Germany-based non-profit organization, reported that industrial robot installations in manufacturing rose by 12% in 2022, reaching 41,624 units. The automotive sector, particularly in the US, Canada, and Mexico, was the leading adopter with 20,391 units installed, marking a 30% increase from 2021. Consequently, automation in manufacturing and the automotive industry is a key driver of the motion control software market for robotics.
Leading companies in the motion control software for robotics market are focusing on developing advanced solutions such as intelligent automation platforms to enable functionalities such as real-time data processing, predictive maintenance, and adaptive control strategies.
