In terms of payload, the up to 5 kg segment is likely to account for the largest market share during the forecast period.
Up to 5 kg payload collaborative robots are expected to hold the largest market share in the European market due to their suitability for high-precision, light-duty tasks common in electronics, packaging, and small assembly operations. Their compact size, lower cost, and easy deployment make them highly attractive for SMEs adopting automation for the first time. These cobots are ideal for repetitive tasks, such as pick-and-place, inspection, and testing, which are prevalent in many European industries. As demand for flexible, affordable automation grows, lightweight cobots will continue to drive widespread adoption across the region.
The electronics industry is expected to witness significant growth during the forecast period.
In Europe, the electronics industry is emerging as a strong growth area for collaborative robots, driven by the need for exceptional precision, flexibility, and speed in assembly and inspection tasks. Cobots are particularly valuable for handling delicate components, performing repetitive work, and operating efficiently in compact production environments. With the rising demand for consumer electronics, manufacturers are increasingly turning to cobots to enhance consistency, minimize errors, and increase throughput. Their ability to be quickly reprogrammed enables fast adaptation to new product designs and frequent updates, helping shorten production cycles and support the rapid pace of innovation in the US electronics sector.
In terms of country, Spain is expected to register the highest growth rate during the forecast period.
Spain is expected to record the highest growth rate for collaborative robots in Europe, driven by its accelerating shift toward automation across manufacturing and logistics. The country’s strong focus on improving productivity and addressing labor shortages is pushing companies to adopt flexible cobot solutions. Government initiatives supporting digital transformation and Industry 4.0 are further boosting demand. Additionally, the increasing adoption among SMEs, particularly in the automotive, electronics, and food processing sectors, is contributing to Spain’s rapid market expansion.
