Eddy Current Sensors:
Eddy current sensors are used in linear sensor market for measuring the magnetic permeability of a material. The measurement is carried out by generating an electromagnetic field and detecting the currents induced in the conductor body due to changing magnetic flux.
The sensing principle of eddy current sensors is based on Lenz's law which states that, any electric dipoles present in a conducting medium will generate an electrical conductivity which is proportional to their strength and position.
Application Insights:
The construction segment dominated the global linear sensor market in terms of revenue and is expected to witness a CAGR of XX% from 2018 to 2030. The growth can be attributed to the rapidly growing urban population, which has resulted in an increased demand for infrastructure development across the globe. Moreover, increasing investments by governments in infrastructural development are likely to boost product demand over the forecast period.
The engineering techniques segment accounted for 23.9% of total revenue share in 2017 owing to extensive usage of eddy current sensors and ultrasonic sensors as vibration measurement devices among other applications such as time measurement and position sensing among others globally. Linear actuators are widely used for various purposes including actuation force control, positioning accuracy control & adjustment, velocity & acceleration limit detection etc., which further boosts product demand worldwide every day without fail since decades now!.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific regional market accounted for the largest revenue share in 2017 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The region is home to several emerging economies, such as China and India, which are also among the top 10 automotive manufacturing nations globally. These countries have been experiencing strong economic growth owing to rapid industrialization and urbanization.
The construction industry in Asia Pacific has witnessed significant growth over the past few years on account of increasing infrastructure activities across key markets, such as China and India. This trend is projected to continue over the next eight years with investments worth USD X trillion being carried out by both governments from 2018 through 2023. Such investments are anticipated to drive product demand across a broad range of industries including electrical & electronics, automation, instrumentation & control throughout this period.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand from the automotive industry for linear sensors for advanced safety features
