Global Articulated Arm Measuring Machine Market Growth 2026-2032
Description
The global Articulated Arm Measuring Machine market size is predicted to grow from US$ 1153 million in 2025 to US$ 1907 million in 2032; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 7.5% from 2026 to 2032.
Articulated CMMs are portable coordinate measuring machines (CMMs) consisting of multi-stage rotary joints and high-precision encoders. They enable on-site 3D measurement, inspection, and reverse engineering of workpieces. Compared to traditional fixed CMMs, these machines offer greater flexibility and mobility while meeting the precision and efficiency requirements of industrial manufacturing. The upstream of the industry chain includes precision mechanical components, bearings, encoders, sensors, and control electronics; the midstream encompasses machine assembly, joint calibration, software integration, and system testing; and the downstream is primarily used in the automotive, aerospace, heavy equipment, mold manufacturing, and third-party testing services, along with supporting training, maintenance, and metrology calibration services. In 2025, the global production of articulated CMMs was approximately 26,200 units, with a total capacity of approximately 33,500 units. The average market price in 2025 was approximately US$45,000 per unit, with industry gross margins typically between 50% and 65%, reflecting the high added value brought by precision mechanical structures, sensors, and measurement software.
The articulated arm measuring machine market benefits from the growing need for flexible, on-site dimensional inspection in modern manufacturing. As production cycles shorten and customization increases, manufacturers increasingly favor portable measurement solutions over fixed inspection equipment. High margins are sustained by software integration, calibration services, and long-term customer relationships. Demand is particularly strong in automotive and aerospace sectors, where complex geometries and large components require mobile measurement capabilities. Emerging markets are also contributing to volume growth as industrial automation and quality standards improve. Overall, the market shows steady expansion, driven by precision manufacturing trends, digital inspection workflows, and the shift toward flexible quality control systems.
