Global Harmonic Reducer for Robotics Market Growth 2025-2031

The global Harmonic Reducer for Robotics market size is predicted to grow from US$ 356 million in 2025 to US$ 509 million in 2031; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.1% from 2025 to 2031.

A harmonic drive, also known as a strain wave gear, is a precision speed reduction mechanism that utilizes the elastic deformation of a flexible (or flexspline) wheel meshing with a rigid (or circular spline) wheel and a wave generator to transmit motion and torque. Its operation principle is based on the theory of strain wave transmission, where the wave generator induces a controlled elastic deformation in the flexible wheel, creating a tooth meshing disparity that results in speed reduction and torque multiplication. Characterized by high reduction ratios, compactness, lightweight, high rotational accuracy, and quick response, harmonic drives find extensive applications in industrial robots, precision machinery, aerospace, and more.

From a global perspective, Japan currently holds the core technology of Harmonic Drive and forms a technical barrier to high-performance reducers. It is difficult for companies in other regions to reach their technical level. Due to the strong market demand in China, more and more Chinese companies have entered the industry, and many companies have expansion plans. For example, Shenzhen Han's Motion Technology is a good new entrant. In 2023, the sales volume of harmonic reducers has reached 80,390 units. In the United States, Germany and South Korea also have R&D and production companies.

China holds the largest consumption market share. And its Harmonic Drive sales volume was 1,323.20 K Units in 2023, followed by Japan. Our analysts estimate that China is to lead the global market for Harmonic Drive during the forecast period, due to the rapid growth of the demand market in China. This region will account for a market share of 74.34% by 2030.

Worldwide, Industry Robot Industry was the largest consumer of Harmonic Drive, which is responsible for 84.09% of Harmonic Drive consumption volume in 2023. The remaining 15.91% was consumed for Automotive, Semiconductor Equipment Industry, Flat Panel Equipment and Machine Tools Industry among others.
