Detailed analysis and profiling of additional market players (up to five)
The eddy current testing market is expected to be worth USD 1,682.9 Million by 2022, at a CAGR of 9.82% between 2016 and 2022. ECT measures and identifies defects and cracks in conductive material. Eddy current testing has its applications in various industries such as aerospace, automotive, oil & gas, manufacturing, and power generation. The report provides a description of each of the application areas of eddy current testing. The market within this study has been classified on the basis of ECT types into conventional eddy current, remote field testing, eddy current array, alternating current field measurement, pulsed eddy current testing, near-field testing, near-field array, and partial saturation eddy current.
Conventional eddy current is expected to hold the largest market share between 2016 and 2022. The conventional eddy current testing method detects defects in conductive materials such as copper, aluminum, and steel. It detects small cracks and measures thickness of materials.
The application in the oil & gas vertical is expected to hold the largest market share between 2016 and 2022. The demand for testing in this sector is largely driven by various governments mandates for ensuring the safety of the environment by avoiding pipeline leakages, oil spills, and other accidents. The market for the manufacturing vertical is expected to grow at the highest rate between 2016 and 2022. Different projects such as Make in India by the Indian government, a high-tech strategy of the German government, Industry 4.0 are anticipated to uplift the manufacturing sector during the forecast period.
North America held the largest share of the NDT market in 2015, and it is expected to grow at a moderate CAGR between 2016 and 2022. The market in APAC is estimated to grow at the highest rate during the forecast period. The demand for eddy current testing in the APAC region is expected to be driven by increasing number of power plants since ECT is used to inspect the heat exchangers, tanks, and other equipment which are key part of power plants operations. For smooth and safe operations, inspection is performed at regular intervals.
There are few restraints for this eddy current testing market such as lack of skilled and qualified personnel and unawareness about the product. Also, ECT is used mainly to test conductive materials which are a limitation for eddy current testing since it cannot detect the defects in other materials such as plastic, rubber, fiber and others. Thus, it is a major restraint while using eddy current testing for inspection.
General Electric Company (U.S.) is the worlds largest clustered organization that offers a diversified product portfolio. The company has developed innovative products catering to the eddy current testing market. Also, it has followed expansion strategy by opening new technology center in the U.K. Apart from G.E. (U.S.), Olympus Corporation (Japan) , Eddyfi NDT Inc. (Canada), and Ashtead Technology Ltd. (U.K.) are other prominent key players in the eddy current testing market.
