Foxconn & Intrinsic Collab: AI Robots to Rock Electronics Mfg World, Growth Surge Ahead
This is you Robotics Industry Insider: AI & Automation News podcast.
Industrial robotics and automation are entering a pivotal phase, as recent collaborations and breakthroughs are setting new benchmarks for what factories can achieve. At Hon Hai Tech Day 2025, Intrinsic and Foxconn announced a landmark joint venture intended to transform electronics manufacturing by combining Intrinsic’s advanced artificial intelligence robotics platform with Foxconn’s global production muscle. This partnership aims to replace narrowly tailored automation with general-purpose intelligent robots, enabling vast swathes of manual processes to become orchestrated and fully automated, which could redefine the concept of a smart factory and accelerate innovation cycles across industries, according to Intrinsic.
Industry growth, despite a recent slowdown, is expected to regain strength. Roland Berger explains that while industrial automation faced headwinds in 2024 and continues to tread water in 2025 due to softer investment and shifting priorities, a robust resurgence is forecast beginning in 2026. Industries such as pharmaceuticals, food and beverage, and electronics are expected to lead, with compound annual growth rates nearing nine percent through the decade. Grand View Research reports the global industrial automation and control systems market is set to reach two hundred twenty-six billion dollars in 2025, on its way to nearly three hundred seventy-nine billion by 2030, reflecting increased demand for efficiency, accuracy, and operational safety.
On the technology front, collaborative robots are seeing historic adoption: Automation.com notes that in the first nine months of 2025, more than four thousand two hundred collaborative robots were ordered in North America alone, valued at over one hundred fifty million dollars. These platforms are not just automating repetitive tasks—they are leveraging artificial intelligence for real-time decision-making, human-robot collaboration, and predictive maintenance, bridging gaps in both productivity and labor shortages. According to Design News, artificial intelligence-powered automation is mitigating economic pressures and overcoming persistent talent shortages, fueling rapid adoption, especially where integration with sensors and edge computing can yield actionable data insights.
A practical takeaway is clear: manufacturers need to evaluate workflows for processes ripe for digital transformation and start integrating artificial intelligence-driven robotics, particularly collaborative robots, to improve scalability and flexibility. Investing in employee upskilling for robotics programming and data analysis is also crucial.
Looking ahead, listeners can anticipate heightened integration of Internet of Things connectivity and more intuitive robotic interfaces, with broader implications for sustainable manufacturing and global supply chain resilience. Thanks for tuning in to Robotics Industry Insider. Come back next week for more frontline news, and remember, this has been a Quiet Please production. For more, visit Quiet Please Dot A I.
