Position Sensor Market Trends and Dynamics:
Driver: Increasing focus of manufacturing industry on accurate measurements and detailed inspection
The manufacturing industry requires a high degree of accuracy to comply with industry standards. Manufacturers focus on two important parameters to produce high-quality products: the accuracy of measurements and detailed inspection. Profiling, width, height, step, gap, V-gap, edge, angle, bend, groove, and surface are among a few of the crucial parameters that a position sensor measures. These sensors also detect, measure, and evaluate the profiles on different object surfaces and are suitable for various industrial applications, including HVAC systems, transportation systems, industrial equipment, mobile hydraulics, smart buildings, heavy-duty machinery, and construction equipment. Many measurement tasks become easier when the position sensor is integrated with the analytics software. Thus, the position sensor is useful where displacement, distance, length, or position parameters need to be measured for automating, testing, or monitoring processes. Currently, contactless position sensors performing automatic scanning are available to facilitate the exact fault finding. The rising requirements for accurate measurements and detailed inspection activities in the manufacturing industry drive the demand for position sensors. The most common types of position sensors used in the manufacturing industry include LVDT position sensors, magneto strictive position sensors, capacitive position sensors, and encoders.
Restraint: High cost of ownership
A position sensor is manufactured/assembled using numerous components, such as position magnets, sensing rods, electronics housing fixtures, diagnostic light-emitting diodes (LEDs), and connectors, which are supplied by multiple vendors. Profitability primarily depends on the availability and cost of raw materials and components, as well as on the time taken to launch the product on the market. The major challenge for the companies operating in this segment is to increase their manufacturing capabilities, provide improved quality products, as well as reduce the overall cost of production.
Position sensors could be custom-made as they are designed according to the requirements of the end users. The specification for these sensors varies according to every application, thereby increasing the cost of a sensor. However, OEMs expect that the sensor manufacturers provide the best possible technology at a lower cost. This factor increases the pricing pressure on the position sensor manufacturers, thereby reducing their profits.
Opportunity: Accelerated trend of industrial automation
With the rapid adoption of advanced technologies, such as Industry 4.0, manufacturers are inclined toward the automation of industrial processes. According to the International Federation of Robotics (IFR), nearly 422 thousand units of industrial robots were shipped globally in FY 2018. Moreover, according to Organization Internationale des Constructeurs d'Automobiles (OICA), the global sale of automotive vehicles increased from seventy-five million in FY 2010 to 91 million in FY 2019. Therefore, manufacturers from different regions across various industries are investing primarily in improving their manufacturing infrastructure by using fully automated machine tools, which, in turn, encourages the rapid growth in the demand for position sensors. Manufacturers are seeking automation in their production process as a solution to reduce the labor pool and high wages, as well as boost productivity. Moreover, automated machinery offers benefits such as high-speed, efficiency, and lower process time than traditional machinery. Accelerated production speed can lead to dynamic errors, such as placing them inappropriately on the assembly line, thereby hampering the quality of finished products, which makes position sensors an integral part of the automated machinery. Position sensors provide precision and control during the production process, along with high accuracy and reliability under various operational and environmental conditions. Position sensors ensure proper machine operations. Thus, the drift toward industrial automation is likely to provide growth opportunities to the position sensor market.
Challenge: Lack of proper standards to measure performance indicators
Defining a standard for a particular technology/component and developing these standards is a rigid process. Currently, terms such as precision, non-linearity, accuracy, and resolutions have not been precisely defined, and they vary widely across manufacturers and researchers. Moreover, the design and fit of position sensors change from application to application. Most of the key players in the industry have their own approach for constructing these sensors. Hence, the lack of universal standards makes it difficult to predict the performance of a position sensor from a set of specifications. This factor is also hampering the adoption of position sensors in various applications because OEMs cannot use these sensors interchangeably for multiple applications. Moreover, the lack of standards and the absence of adequate value proposition may discourage further investments in this market. Currently, the emphasis is on improving sensor design and standardizing the performance scale. Proper standardizing would help manufacturers to develop new products, which would comply and fulfill emerging demand for position sensors across several applications.
