Force & Torque Measurement Equipment Market To Reach $101.2 Million By 2033

Force And Torque Measurement Equipment Market Growth & Trends

The global force and torque measurement equipment market size is anticipated to reach USD 101.2 million by 2033 and is expected to expand at a CAGR of 4.1% from 2025 to 2033, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Rising automation across automotive, electronics, and general manufacturing plants is a major driver for force and torque measurement equipment. Automated lines require precise verification of fasteners, components, and assemblies to maintain output quality. This increases the demand for accurate, real-time sensing tools that are integrated into machines and robots.

The shift toward electric vehicles is creating new requirements for torque validation in motors, battery systems, and drivetrains. Robotic, both industrial and surgical, is also driving the adoption of multi-axis force-torque sensors for better control and safety. These emerging applications demand higher accuracy, compact designs, and faster response times. As EV and robotics production accelerates, measurement equipment becomes essential to performance and reliability.

Industries are under increasing pressure to meet stringent quality, calibration, and safety standards, particularly in automotive, electronics, and medical manufacturing. Force and torque measurement systems help ensure components are assembled correctly and meet regulatory thresholds. Companies rely on these tools to prevent product failures and maintain their certifications. As compliance frameworks continue to strengthen globally, manufacturers are investing more in precision metrology solutions.

Innovations such as wireless measurement, digital interfaces, and miniaturized multi-axis sensors are enhancing performance and usability. New designs allow integration into compact machines, high-speed test rigs, and portable inspection tools. Improved accuracy, stability, and data connectivity open opportunities for advanced analytics and predictive maintenance. These advancements make modern force and torque equipment more versatile and attractive for diverse industries.
