Market Overview:
The global non-contact thickness gauges market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The market growth can be attributed to the increasing demand for non-contact thickness gauges in various end-use industries, such as film and sheet. In terms of type, the X-ray segment is expected to lead the global non-contact thickness gauges market during the forecast period, owing to its high accuracy and precision. In terms of application, the film segment is projected to lead the global market during the forecast period, followed by sheet segments.
Product Definition:
Non-contact thickness gauges are devices used to measure the thickness of a material without making physical contact with it. This is important because it allows for non-destructive testing, meaning that the material can be tested without damaging or altering it in any way. Non-contact thickness gauges are often used in industrial settings to test the quality and consistency of materials, as well as to detect flaws or defects.
X-Ray:
X-ray is a kind of electromagnetic ionizing radiation which is applied to the surface of materials for determining their thickness. The X-rays are absorbed by the materials and then they are emitted back with the same frequency, but at a different angle. As a result, it provides information about the internal structure of materials without physically handling them.
The global non-contact thickness gauges market was valued at USD 1,849.1 million in 2016.
Infrared Ray:
Infrared ray is the electromagnetic radiation with longer wavelength than visible light but shorter wavelength than infrared radiation. The major difference between infrared and ultraviolet rays is that IR does not have a strong smell or heat. Infrared Ray works by absorbing energy from objects, mostly from the warm objects.
Application Insights:
Non-contact thickness gauges are used in various applications including film, sheet and others. The film segment dominated the market in terms of revenue share and is expected to maintain its dominance over the forecast period. Non-contact gauges are used for various purposes such as controlling exposure, metering light or heat, focusing light rays on a sensor or photographic plate etc. Film thickness is measured using a ¢â‚¬Å“film caliper¢â‚¬ which measures both sides of the negative/positive image creating machine together with an electronic device that displays measurements in micrometers (mm).
The use of non-contact devices has enabled photographers to achieve higher precision while measuring thin films coupled with ease of handling and operation owing to their small size and lightweight nature.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific dominated the global non-contact thickness gauges market in 2017. The region is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to increasing demand for medical equipment and healthcare services. In addition, rising geriatric population and improving living standards are anticipated to fuel product penetration in this region.
The Asia Pacific is also likely to be a lucrative destination for medical equipment manufacturers due to low labor costs, which has encouraged several foreign companies such as Baxter International; Stryker Corporation; and Zimmer Biomet Holdings Inc.; among others,to set up their manufacturing facilities in this region. Thus, growing investments by these companies coupled with favorable government policies aimed at promoting domestic production may propel regional growth over the next eight years.
Europe accounted for a major share of revenue generated by the global market on account of high product adoption rates observed in countries such as Germany and U.K.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for non-contact thickness gauges from the automotive industry for quality control and process improvement
- Growing demand for non-contact thickness gauges in the medical device industry to detect early signs of wear and tear in medical implants
- Rising popularity of automated non-contact thickness gauges in manufacturing facilities to improve throughput and accuracy
- Increasing use of non-contact thickness gauges in research and development laboratories to measure thin films and coatings on a variety of substrates
- Advances in sensor technology that make non-contact thickness gauges more sensitive, accurate, and reliable
