According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global CNC Machine Tool Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) market size was valued at US$ 1482 million in 2025 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 2185 million by 2032 with a CAGR of 5.8% during review period.
A Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) is an industrial digital computer specifically designed to control and automate machine tool processes, logic sequencing, motion control, and I/O operations in harsh factory environments; in CNC machine tools, PLCs coordinate auxiliary functions, machine sequencing, safety interlocks, sensors, and actuators to ensure coordinated, reliable machining operations.
The PLC market industry chain begins upstream with semiconductor ICs, microcontrollers, memory and communication interfaces, industrial I/O modules, power supplies, and sensor/actuator components, passes through midstream precision electronics manufacturing, embedded software/firmware development, industrial networking and safety protocol implementation, and produces programmable logic controllers with modular I/O, communication stacks and diagnostic systems that are distributed through OEMs, automation integrators, machine tool builders, and system integrators into downstream applications such as automotive, aerospace, electronics, energy and discrete manufacturing, supported by value-added services including technical support, training, spare parts, firmware updates and integration into Industry 4.0/IoT ecosystems.
Across global automation sectors, PLC manufacturers and system integrators are executing projects to build new smart automation hubs, expand regional production facilities in Asia Pacific, Eastern Europe and North America for localized PLC assembly and configurators, integrate AI/edge computing in next-generation PLCs, deploy digital twin and virtual commissioning capabilities, launch training and certification centers for automated manufacturing skills, establish collaborative automation labs with CNC machine builders, develop advanced safety PLC lines for autonomous systems, expand partnerships for EV and semiconductor fabrication automation, retrofit legacy factories with PLC-driven IoT solutions, and roll out predictive maintenance analytics tied to cloud and Industrial Ethernet.
In 2025, the global market sales 1.8 million units, with an average global market price ranging roughly USD 400–1,500+ per unit depending on performance class and configuration, and a market average gross profit margin of 25% for leading branded suppliers due to high value-added integration, software/firmware licensing and after-sales support services.
