세계 포스 센서 시장 예측(2023-2028년)

The force sensors market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 13.21% during the forecast period.

Force sensors are tools that transform applied mechanical forces, such as compressive and tensile forces, into digital signals whose magnitude can be used to calculate the force's magnitude. The signals are utilized as inputs to control equipment and processes. Force sensors are used in heavy automotive vehicles like construction trucks and extraction vehicles to track the overloading force of vehicle components to avoid fatigue failure. Growing applicability in automotive coupled with industrial automation are majorly driving the force sensors industry growth.

MARKET DRIVERS:

Increasing industrial automation to raise demand for force sensors.

Automation and robots are essential to revive and modernize the manufacturing sector. Industry 4.0 is significantly speeding up and boosting the use of automation and robotics technologies across several industrial sectors. Force and torque sensors allow robotic processes like deburring, sanding, and polishing to be carried out. Applications for packing, manufacturing lines, and inspection processes can all benefit from force sensing. The incorporation of mechanics, robotics, and control systems on the manufacturing floor has become commonplace with the push toward Industry 4.0 breakthroughs to maximize productivity, efficiency, and cost.

Increasing need for piezoelectric force sensors in different industries to boost the market growth.

Advanced sensing technologies are becoming necessary as the world gets more automated and linked. Piezoelectric force sensors have become a top choice across numerous industries such as chemical, healthcare, and oil & gas due to their unmatched sensitivity and precision. In the medical & healthcare sector piezoelectric sensors are used in blood pressure monitors, infusion devices, and ultrasound imaging systems. Moreover, devices made for prosthetic use can electrically control the movement of the prosthetic device while using piezoelectric sensors to detect muscle movements.

High demand in the automotive sector to increase the market size.

Force sensors are also frequently used in the automotive industry to monitor centripetal force during maneuvers thereby improving driver safety. Rising automobile sales and manufacturing to cater to the growing demand are likely to generate growth opportunities for the force sensors industry. According to the International Organization of Motor Vehicle Manufacturers (OICA), global vehicle sales, including passenger cars and commercial vehicles, increased from 78787566 in 2020 to 81,628,533 in 2022. Moreover, as per the same source automotive production at the country level has witnessed a significant increase.

Rising use in the oil & gas industry.

Force sensors find extensive application in the oil & gas industry due to their ability to accurately measure and monitor forces involved in various operations such as drilling, wellbore stability, pipeline monitoring, and equipment performance. These sensors enable real-time data acquisition and analysis, facilitating better decision-making, improving operational efficiency, and ensuring safety. The oil & gas industry is growing due to increasing energy demand, exploration of new oil and gas reserves, and investments to boost the refining sector. For instance, in December 2022, Aramco and TotalEnergies jointly approved the final investment decision to construct a large-scale petrochemical facility in Saudi Arabia called the 'Amiral' complex. The project would be fully owned, operated, and integrated with the existing SATORP refinery situated in Jubail, along Saudi Arabia's eastern coast.

North America is projected to dominate the force sensors market.

During the projected period, the North American region is anticipated to account for a significant market share due to its significant presence of leading automotive manufacturers coupled with technological advancements which are driving the demand for force sensors in vehicle design, safety systems, and performance optimization. According to the International Organization of Motor Vehicle Manufacturers, in 2022, the three leading economies of the North America region namely the USA, Canada, and Mexico all experienced a noteworthy 10% increase in commercial vehicle production compared to 2021.

MARKET RESTRAINTS:

High cost and low precision.

Due to technical and budgetary challenges, it is expensive to incorporate multiple functionalities onto a compact sensor. The creation of tiny sensors requires significant research and development work from all parties to meet shifting market expectations. Further, their precision and repeatability, where frequent readings may deviate by a minimum of 10% or more, are also impeding the force sensor market growth.
