세계의 적외선 서모그래피 시장 : 제품별, 모드별, 파장 범위별, 용도별, 최종 사용자별, 지역별 예측(-2030년)

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Infrared Thermography Market is accounted for $462.25 million in 2023 and is expected to reach $713.39 million by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 7.5% during the forecast period. Infrared Thermography (IRT), also known as thermal imaging or infrared imaging, is a non-contact technology used to visualize heat patterns on the surface of objects. It detects infrared radiation (heat) and converts it into an image or video, highlighting temperature differences. Widely utilized across industries, IRT can detect anomalies in electrical systems, monitor building insulation, assist in medical diagnostics, and support preventive maintenance by identifying heat-related issues before they lead to failures.

According to World Bank collection of development indicator, the industrial sector including construction sector, of Czechia contributed 31.49 % in 2020 in the country's GDP. According to a survey conducted by NATO, in 2021, the United States is estimated to spend 3.52%of its gross domestic product on defense expenditures.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Rising adoption in predictive maintenance

The adoption of predictive maintenance is significantly boosting the growth of the infrared thermography market. Infrared thermography enables early detection of anomalies in equipment by capturing thermal images, which helps in identifying potential issues before they lead to failures. This proactive approach reduces unplanned downtime and maintenance costs, making it an attractive solution for industries such as manufacturing, utilities, and transportation. As industries increasingly prioritize operational efficiency and cost reduction, the demand for infrared thermography in predictive maintenance applications is accelerating, contributing to its market expansion.

Restraint:

Skill and training requirements

In the infrared thermography (IRT) market, skill and training requirements act as a restraint due to the specialized knowledge and competencies needed to operate and interpret thermal imaging equipment effectively. Proficiency in IRT demands an understanding of heat transfer principles, calibration techniques, and familiarity with various infrared camera systems. Technicians must also be trained to analyze thermal images accurately to diagnose issues. This high barrier to entry limits the pool of qualified professionals, thus potentially restricting market growth as companies face challenges in finding skilled personnel and investing in ongoing training programs.

Opportunity:

Advanced analytics and AI integration

The integration of advanced analytics and AI in the infrared thermography market presents significant opportunities for enhancing predictive maintenance, quality control, and safety. AI algorithms can analyze thermal images to detect anomalies and predict equipment failures with high accuracy, reducing downtime and maintenance costs. Advanced analytics facilitate real-time monitoring and diagnostics, enabling swift responses to thermal anomalies in industrial and infrastructure applications. These technologies also improve the interpretation of complex thermal patterns, allowing for automated, precise defect identification in manufacturing processes, building inspections, and energy audits.

Threat:

Environmental and operational limitations

Environmental and operational limitations refer to the challenges affecting the accuracy and usability of infrared imaging due to external and situational factors. These limitations include extreme temperatures, varying humidity, and environmental interferences like dust or smoke, which can distort thermal readings. Additionally, the need for precise calibration and specific viewing angles complicates operation, especially in dynamic or harsh environments. These factors can impair the functionality of IRT equipment, leading to potential misinterpretations and reducing reliability in field applications.

Covid-19 Impact:

The COVID-19 pandemic significantly boosted the infrared thermography (IRT) market. As temperature screening became a key measure to detect and prevent the spread of the virus, demand for infrared thermographic cameras and systems surged. These devices were rapidly deployed in public places, workplaces, airports, and healthcare facilities for fever detection. Consequently, the market saw accelerated innovation and the integration of advanced features like AI for enhanced accuracy. This increased adoption of IRT technology for health monitoring has also expanded its applications beyond traditional uses.
