Global Torque Sensor Market
The GMI Research forecasts that the Torque Sensor Market is witnessing an upsurge in demand over the forecast period. This is mainly due to the escalation in demand for high-performance vehicles, accelerating penetration of EPS in passenger vehicles, and surge in demand for new measurement technologies.
Introduction of the Torque Sensor Market
A torque sensor, also known as torque transducer, is a device to measure and record forces on a rotating system, such as an engine, crankshaft, gearbox, transmission, rotor, bicycle crank, or cap torque tester. It is a transducer that converts a mechanical input into an electrical output signal.
Key Players of the Global Torque Sensor Market:
- ABB
- FUTEK Advanced Sensor Technology, Inc.
- Crane Electronics Ltd
- Honeywell International Inc.
- HBM
- Sensor Technology Ltd
- Norbar Torque Tools Ltd
- Applied Measurements Ltd.
- Kistler Group
- Infineon Technologies AG
Torque Sensor Market Dynamics (including market size, share, trends, forecast, growth, forecast, and industry analysis)
Augmenting demand for electric and hybrid automobiles along with their diverse applications across several industry verticals, which include automotive, industrial, and aerospace, are the prominent drivers responsible for the growth of the global Torque Sensor Market. Also, the increasing need for electric power steering (EPS) systems and the better accuracy imparted by these sensors will further strengthen the market size. They are lodged across an extensive range of applications, such as torsional test machines, motor dynamometers, electric motors, fans, and hydraulic pumps. The installation of reaction sensors is economical as they do not include slip-rings, bearings, or other rotating parts. Rotary sensors are mainly used for electric motor, dynamometer, gearbox, automotive engine testing, and drive train measurements. Thereby, all these factors together will support the market growth.
Furthermore, the widespread outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic negatively influenced the market growth owing to the reduction in the demand for motor vehicles and fewer aircraft orders due to travel restrictions and insufficient consumer confidence. Also, these sensors are used in automotive and aerospace & defense applications and could be highly impacted due to the inadequate functioning of these industries. However, their less reliability in high-end applications is restraining the market growth.
Type Segment Drivers
Based on the Type, Rotary is contemplated to witness a faster growth in the near future owing to their different uses in several machines like vehicles, motors, and robots. The advantages proffered by them include low noise, and increased response times, high stiffness, and RPM ratings. Moreover, the extensive usage of compact and lightweight robots with increased range further drives the market growth. They are suitable for low torque and high bandwidth measurement, which provide benefits like high-speed, low inertia, and faster data throughput,
Application Segment Drivers
Based on the Application, Automotive is predicted to witness higher growth over the coming years. This is primarily attributed to their utilization by companies for calibrating automatic transmissions, mapping engine torque, testing clutches and gearboxes, measuring strain, and determining the dynamic torque in an engine. Their assistance in estimating strain, testing of major components accompanied by the rigorous emission regulations, changing buyer preference, and electrification technology are likely to pave the way for market growth.
Regional Drivers
Based on the regional coverage, Asia-Pacific will account for the largest market share. China is accounted to be the largest vehicle manufacturer in the world, with Japan and South Korea being the major exporters of automobiles. The automotive vertical led by large-scale manufacturing and heavy investments in new vehicle technologies will play an important role in the market growth. The increasing need for energy production and large-scale manufacturing of various types of goods for export further paves the way for market growth.
