Geography - Segment Analysis
In 2018, APAC dominated the Rotary Encoder market, followed by North America and Europe. The economy of APAC is majorly influenced by the major countries such as China and India. In 2018, China's annual vehicle production accounted for more than 30 percent of the world's vehicle production, which exceeds that of the European Union, or the United States and Japan combined. India's food & grocery market is the sixth biggest in the country. Food & Grocery retail in India also accounts for nearly 65% of India's total retail market. The Government of India is also taking all necessary measures through the Ministry of Food Processing Industries (MoFPI), to raise investment in the food processing industry. The Government has approved 39 Mega Food Parks (MFPs) under the Mega Food Park Scheme. Therefore the significant deployment of the rotary encoders in the packaging applications is set to impact on the market growth rate during the forecast period 2020-2025.
Drivers -Rotary Encoder Market
- Increasing industrial automation
Digitization and Industry 4.0 revolution have significantly stimulated the adoption of automation among various industries, by necessitating the use of smarter and automated solutions, such as robotics and control systems, to improve production processes. Factory automation reduces production, operation, and labour costs. Therefore, its implementation in various industries has increased such as automotive, aerospace, packaging, healthcare, electronics, and others. Further, the Chinese government's programs, such as the Made in China 2025 plan, are promoting technology R&D in factory automation and their investments.
- Growing automotive industry
Rotary encoder is a type of position sensor which is used in providing electrical outputs which are relative to shaft rotation which measures the angles precisely, pedal position. In automotive industries, these sensors are used in throttle position control, steering wheel position control, gear position control, wiper motor control, headlamp position control, seat position motor, side mirror control, compact input device (mode selector, control volume), rotary switch and others. According to International Energy Agency, in 2018, 3.29 million electric vehicles deployed globally, and the number will increase up to 125 million by 2030. Therefore, the growth in automotive industry will drive rotary encoder market growth.
Challenges - Rotary Encoder Market
- Dearth of product differentiation
One of the restraining factors in the rotary encoders market is the lack of product differentiation. Rotary encoders have substantial number of applications with varied potential, thus buyers procure these products in bulk, as they are used in huge volumes in electronics, aerospace, automotive and other industries. As a number of key players offer similar technological products, there are numerous options for the buyers to buy from. Thus, creating pricing pressure on manufacturer that helps to compete with large manufacturers for high volume of these products. Thus, the pricing pressure on manufacturer's acts as a challenge.
