Delray Beach – October 14, 2026 -- The global CAM software market will grow from about USD 4.0 billion in 2026 to USD 6.4 billion by 2031, a CAGR of 9.6%, according to MarketsandMarkets. The market stood at USD 3.7 billion in 2025.

North America is forecast to hold USD 1.4 billion of 2026 market value

North America is expected to be the largest regional market, driven by a dense base of aerospace, automotive and industrial machinery manufacturers. These sectors generate high-volume part-program requirements from prototyping to full-rate production. The report says buyers in the region prefer platforms that plug into the broader enterprise technology stack rather than standalone tools.

For 2025, the software segment is expected to hold the largest market value. The machining and production segment is expected to hold the largest share, and on-premises deployment is expected to hold the largest deployment share.
