Cumulative Growth Analysis

More than 120 motors are installed in modern passenger vehicles to handle numerous applications such as headlamp placement, seat adjustment, grill shutter, HVAC systems, and coolant and refrigerant valves, among others. Actuators are critical in activating these applications because they translate an electric signal into the necessary linear and rotational motion to create the requisite physical movement.

With technological developments, autonomous cars are likely to include a variety of actuators to improve safety and comfort. The automotive actuators market is constantly expanding because of the global increase in automobile production and sales (passenger cars, LCVs, HCVs, and off-highway vehicles). Sensors, software programs, controller hardware, and actuators are thought to form the foundation of today's and tomorrows automotive systems.

BorgWarner announced its latest generation of cam torque actuators, intelligent cam torque actuation (iCTA), in March 2019, offering greater fuel efficiency and lower emissions through revolutionary technology. iCTA combines the benefits of cam torque actuation and torsional assist. A range of vehicles from two major vehicle manufacturers in China and North America will launch with this technology in 2019 and 2020.

Value Chain Analysis
