직류(DC) 드라이브 시장 예측(-2030년) : 유형별, 제어 유형별, 컴포넌트별, 제어 방법별, 용도별, 지역별 세계 분석

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Direct Current (DC) Drives Market is accounted for $5.82 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach $8.69 billion by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 6.2% during the forecast period. Direct Current (DC) drives are electrical devices used to control the speed, torque, and direction of DC motors. They operate by varying the voltage and current supplied to the motor, allowing precise control over its performance. DC drives typically consist of a rectifier to convert alternating current (AC) to DC, a controller to adjust the motor's operational parameters, and an inverter or similar component to regulate the power delivered to the motor.

According to IEA, global energy intensity - a key measure of the economy's energy efficiency was forecasted to improve by 1.9% in 2021 after improving by only 0.5% in 2020.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Increasing adoption of industrial automation

DC drives offer fine-tuned control over motor speed, torque, and direction, which is essential for optimizing automated systems and improving operational efficiency. As industries automate processes to enhance productivity and reduce labor costs, the need for advanced DC drives grows. Their ability to integrate with automation systems and provide variable speed control supports various applications, from robotics to conveyor systems, fueling market expansion and driving innovation in DC drive technologies.

Restraint:

Technological obsolescence

Rapid advancements in drive technology, such as the development of advanced AC drives and integrated digital solutions, can overshadow DC drives, leading to reduced demand for older systems. This obsolescence may result in higher costs for upgrades and maintenance, as well as decreased market attractiveness for DC drive manufacturers. Consequently, it impedes market growth and innovation in the DC drives sector.

Opportunity:

Growing adoption of electric & autonomous vehicles

DC drives facilitate efficient power management, enabling precise control of motor speed and torque, essential for optimal vehicle performance. As the demand for EVs rises due to environmental concerns and government incentives, manufacturers increasingly rely on DC drives for their cost-effectiveness and reliability. Additionally, advancements in battery technology, which often utilize DC power, further boost the demand for DC drives. This synergy between EV growth and DC drive technology creates a robust market expansion opportunity.

Threat:

High maintenance costs

High maintenance costs in DC drives arise from the need for regular servicing of components such as brushes, commutators, and rectifiers, which are prone to wear and tear. These maintenance requirements can lead to increased downtime and operational disruptions. As a result, businesses may face higher long-term operational costs compared to alternatives with lower maintenance needs. This financial burden can deter potential buyers, restrict market expansion, and reduce the attractiveness of DC drives compared to more maintenance-friendly drive systems.

Covid-19 Impact

The covid-19 pandemic impacted the DC drives market by disrupting supply chains and manufacturing operations, leading to delays and increased costs. Reduced industrial activity and investment during lockdowns also slowed demand. However, the shift toward automation and increased focus on energy efficiency as industries adapted to new working conditions created opportunities for market recovery. The pandemic accelerated the adoption of remote monitoring and control technologies, benefiting DC drive applications in sectors that required continued operation.

The voltage control segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

The voltage control segment is estimated to have a lucrative growth, due to its ensured stable and precise operation. By adjusting the voltage, DC drives manage motor speed and torque, improving performance and efficiency. This capability is crucial in applications requiring exact voltage levels to maintain operational stability and prevent damage. DC drives are commonly used in power supplies, battery management systems, and sensitive electronic equipment, where consistent voltage control is essential for reliable performance.

The industrial automation segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

The industrial automation segment is anticipated to witness the highest CAGR growth during the forecast period. In industrial automation, DC drives are used to precisely control the speed, torque, and direction of DC motors, enhancing overall system performance. They facilitate smooth and adjustable operation in various applications such as conveyor systems, robotics, and pumps. DC drives support efficient energy use and contribute to the automation of repetitive tasks, improving productivity and operational efficiency. Their ability to provide fine-tuned control makes them essential in optimizing industrial processes and machinery.
