Market Overview:
Ultrasonic thickness gauges are devices that use ultrasonic waves to measure the thickness of a material. Ultrasonic waves are sound waves with frequencies higher than the upper limit of human hearing. Ultrasonic thickness gauges can be used to measure the thickness of a variety of materials, including metals, plastics, and composites. The global ultrasonic thickness gauge market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% from 2018 to 2030. The growth in this market is primarily driven by the increasing demand for ultrasonic thickness gauges in construction and metallurgy applications. Additionally, the growing demand for ultrasonic thickness gauges in Asia Pacific and Middle East & Africa is also contributing to the growth of this market.
Product Definition:
Ultrasonic Thickness Gauges are used to measure the thickness of a material using ultrasonic waves. These waves pass through the material and are reflected back by the other side. The time it takes for the waves to travel through the material and back is used to calculate its thickness. Ultrasonic Thickness Gauges can be used on a variety of materials, including metals, plastics, and composites. They are important because they can help identify flaws or weak spots in materials that may lead to failure.
AC:
Ultrasonic thickness gauges are instruments that measure the depth of a material with high accuracy and precision. Ultrasonic thickness gauges work on the principle of sound waves, which generate and detect reflected waves from the target object to determine its thickness. The ultrasonic sensor measures the time taken for these reflected waves to travel back to the instrument, through this delay period is determined as an object’s thickness.
DC:
DC is the abbreviation for Differential Scanning. It is a method of scanning an object to determine it's thickness at various locations. Ultrasonic thickness gauges make use of DC technique to measure the depth of objects with great accuracy and precision.
Differential Scanning (DS) ultrasonic thickness gauge makes use of a transducer, which generates ultrasound waves that are reflected when an object interrupting the waves occurs in between transducers.
Application Insights:
The construction segment accounted for the largest market share in 2017 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. Ultrasonic thickness gauges are used for various applications in construction such as concrete, steel, and wood inspection. The increasing need for infrastructure development across several economies is anticipated to boost product demand over the forecast period.
In metallurgy, they are used to measure metal thickness of rolled products such as bars, rods & profiles etc., from 0.5mm up to 12mm thick including cast iron & steel grades respectively (0D-4D). They can also be used on structural or mechanical components where accurate measurement of thin sheet metal layers is required along with other non-structural applications like electronics assembly where dimensional accuracy matters most.
The other application segment includes automotive/transportation industry.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific dominated the global industry in 2017 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The region is home to several emerging economies, including China, India, and South Korea. Growing construction activities in these countries are expected to drive product demand from 2018 to 2030. In addition, increasing foreign investments coupled with government initiatives for infrastructure development are likely to contribute toward regional growth over the next eight years.
The Middle East & Africa Ultrasonic Thickness Gauge Market was worth USD X million in 2017 owing to rising oil & gas exploration activities across major countries such as Saudi Arabia.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for ultrasonic thickness gauges from end-use industries such as automotive, aerospace, and defense due to the advantages offered by these gauges over other types of thickness gauges.
- Growing popularity of ultrasonic thickness gauges among small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) due to their low cost and easy operability.
- Rising demand for ultrasonic thickness gauges from emerging economies owing to the increasing industrialization in these regions.
- Technological advancements in ultrasonic thickness gauge technology that are resulting in the development of new applications for these devices.
