The growing emphasis of process automation in automotive, manufacturing and food and beverages industries has facilitated the demand of proximity and displacement sensors globally. Besides this, the elevators and escalators, pulp and paper industries have further amplified the demand. Recent recovery in automotive and various commodity manufacturing industries has fuelled the growth of this market. Especially, the ever-rising investments towards factory automation to meet zero defect production goals would intensify the demand in the market. The ongoing technology advancements by industry players for product differentiation to compensate the price pressure challenges would influence the industry in terms of demand.
Inductive sensors are finding widespread applications for discrete automation purposes. Some of the major applications that supplement the rising demand for inductive sensors include various self-service equipment from Automated Teller Machines (ATM), Automotive Vending Machines to gaming machines. Besides this, photoelectric sensors are widely sought sensors by the customers with dominant applications in automotive and food & beverages industry. The rapidly growing automotive industry, especially, in context to the manufacturing hubs such as China and India, would ultimately boost the growth of these sensors.
North America, with an impressive presence of substantial manufacturing companies, is currently leading the proximity and displacement sensors market, globally. However, the on-going trend of shifting manufacturing plants to low labour cost countries would largely boost the growth of the proximity and displacement sensors industry in Asian region.
Key findings of the study:
- The global market for proximity and displacement sensors would exhibit significant growth, highlighting the importance of factory automation and increasing workplace safety during the forecast period (2014 - 2020)
