In addition, the growing demand for hydraulic cylinders in automotive and industrial applications is also fueling the growth of global linear position sensor market. The global linear position sensor market by type is segmented into three categories: Linear Resistance Potentiometers (POTS), Linear Variable Inductance Transducers (LVITs), Magnetostrictive Linear Displacement Transducers (MLDTs). POTS held a dominant share in 2017 and is expected to maintain its dominance during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. This can be attributed to its low cost and easy installation compared with other types of linear position sensors available in the market.
Product Definition:
A Linear Position Sensor is a device that measures the position of an object in linear motion. This type of sensor is often used in hydraulic cylinders to monitor the position of the piston. The information from a linear position sensor can be used to control the movement of an object or machine.
Linear Resistance Potentiometers (POTS):
Linear resistance potentiometers (POTS) are used in hydraulic systems to measure the linear position of a piston or slide. They are also known as rotary linear potentiometers, and commonly found in automotive fuel injection systems. The Linear Position Sensors for Hydraulic Cylinder market is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to its increasing demand across various industries such as automobile, packaging, food & beverage processing and pharmaceuticals among others.
Linear Variable Inductance Transducers (LVITs):
Linear variable inductance transducers (LVITs) are used in hydraulic cylinder to measure the linear position of piston. It is a non-contact method which uses electromagnetic principle for sensing motion. The device consists of two coils, one of them is stationary and other is wound around an iron core which varies in diameter according to the position of piston.
Application Insights:
Based on the application, the global market is segmented into industrial machinery and equipment, construction and mining machinery, transportation systems (railroad), healthcare equipment and others. The variable resistance potentiometers segment dominated the overall market in terms of revenue share in 2017 owing to its wide range of applications such as air handling units for HVAC systems, pumps used in water treatment plants & sewage ejectors among others.
The linear variable inductance sensors are widely used for position sensing in electric motors which require low power consumption as compared to other technologies such as optical or magnetic sensors. These devices provide high-precision positioning solutions with enhanced robustness that are ideal for demanding industrial applications where extreme conditions prevail. The adoption of LVDT has been increasing over recent years owing to their low power consumption along with their ability to withstand high vibration environments making them an ideal choice for automotive applications including engine management computers and transmission control computers among others.
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the global market in 2017. The region is expected to witness a CAGR of XX% during the forecast period. This can be attributed to extensive research and development activities undertaken by key companies in this region, which resulted in the introduction of new technologies and products for position sensing applications. Moreover, increasing demand for advanced hydraulic systems within various industrial sectors such as mining, oil & gas, food & beverage processing is anticipated to drive product adoption across this region over the forecast period.
The Asia Pacific regional market captured significant share owing to growing awareness regarding hydraulic devices among end-users coupled with rising investments by prominent players for expanding their presence across emerging countries such as China and India has positively influenced overall industry growth within this region. Furthermore, favorable government initiatives aimed at developing infrastructure projects are also expected to contribute towards increased product utilization levels over the next eight years thereby augmenting overall revenue generation capacities of global Linear Position Sensors manufacturers located throughout Asia Pacific Region (APAC).
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for linear position sensors in hydraulic cylinders from the automotive industry as they are used in various safety-critical applications such as airbags, power steering, and braking systems.
- Growing demand for linear position sensors from the construction and mining equipment industries due to their increasing use in hydraulic excavators, backhoes, bulldozers, and other heavy equipment.
