Several industries, including automotive, oil & gas, aerospace & defense, maritime, and mining, forecast a high need for actuators. In the aftermath of increasing demand from gas storage and gas & liquid pipelines, the oil and gas industry records for a diverse set of applications utilizing actuators. As a result, several lucrative prospects for actuators continue to emerge.


Global Actuators Market Drivers



  • Automotive industry technological advancements drive growth opportunities in the glucose market


The introduction of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) and other technological breakthroughs in the car industry has considerably increased the employment of actuators. Another key growth-inducing aspect is the increasing tendency of automation across numerous industries. The Internet of Things (IoT) installation has permitted actuator automation for increased productivity and reduced downtime in industrial and manufacturing facilities. For instance, Arkamys and Continental teamed in April 2021 to research automotive audio solutions, with Continental sound actuators put in a test vehicle originally outfitted with ordinary commodity speakers. Arkamys used its sound enhancement software with various loudspeakers and actuator designs. The demonstration vehicle has a variety of sound reproduction technologies as well as manufacturer-friendly characteristics such as scalability, space and weight reductions, reduced components, and concealed integration.


Restraints:



  • Overheating issues to curb the market growth


Electric actuators frequently overheat due to continuous use and abrupt changes in the operating cycle; however, this is infrequent and may ruin the actuators' electric components. Environmental conditions can have an impact on the performance of electric actuators. This means that, unlike pneumatic actuators, they cannot be used in hazardous environments.


Opportunities:



  • A rise in opportunities in the construction industry


Smart buildings, smart mobility, smart healthcare, smart transportation, and smart security are expected to give various opportunities for the actuator market's emerging companies to capitalize on. Technological advancement and production plant automation are also important factors driving the global market growth.


Segment Overview


By Type


The global actuators market segmentation, based on type, is pneumatic actuators, hydraulic actuators, electric actuators, and mechanical actuators. The global actuators market growth was prominently high under the electrical actuators category in 2021, and the electrical actuators category is also expected to grow at the fastest rate during the forecast period. The replacement of hydraulic and pneumatic actuators with electrical actuators due to their superior efficiency and greater degrees of control can be linked to the expansion of the electrical actuation industry. Electric actuators have a high speed and are thus widely used in automobile applications. The hydraulic actuator and pneumatic actuator sectors also retained significant market share and are considerably boosting actuator demand. The energy consumed by hydraulic and pneumatic actuators is greater than that consumed by electrical actuators.
