Position Sensor Market Insights

Global Position Sensor Market size was valued at USD 6.47 billion in 2022 and is poised to grow from USD 7.01 billion in 2023 to USD 13.4 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 8.5% during the forecast period (2024-2031). 

A position sensor is a sensor that detects an object's position. A position sensor may indicate the absolute position of the object (its location) or its relative position (displacement) in terms of linear travel, rotational angle or three-dimensional space. The growth adoption of integrated control systems in consumer electronics devices such as smartphones and tablets is expected to offer lucrative growth opportunities over the forecast period. Stringent emission laws legislated in various European countries are encouraging the use of linear and rotary position sensors. These sensors play a crucial role in ensuring vehicle compliance with the slated emission riders. Currently, manufacturers across a broad spectrum of industries, including aerospace, defense, industrial equipment, medical, and automotive, among others, are all increasingly implementing position sensors and other sensing technologies. Demand is expected to increase further with rising need for efficiency, accuracy, and safety. Owing to these factors, demand for position sensors is likely to surge across the globe at an impressive CAGR throughout the forecast period.

Increasing application of position detection in the aerospace industry happens to be one of the major factors driving market growth. There has also been an increase in demand for linear and rotary position sensors across aerospace applications, ranging from large commercial aircraft to military platforms. Post the breakout of the pandemic, end-user industries where position sensors are used have witnessed a decline in their growth from January to May in different countries, including China, Italy, Germany, the UK, the US, Spain, France, and India, owing to halt in operations. This resulted in a significant decline in the revenues of the companies operating in these industries and subsequently in demand for position sensors manufacturers, thereby impacting the growth of the position sensors market in 2019.

US Position Sensor Market is poised to grow at a sustainable CAGR for the next forecast year.

Position Sensor Market Dynamics

Position Sensor Market Drivers

  • High accuracy degree is required by all manufacturing industries to match industry standard products in order to provide high quality products, be it electronic or automotive. Position sensors also help to sensor other parameters such as gap, width, profiling, edge, bend, angle, groove, height, surface, and others. Position sensors are suitable for different applications such as heavy-duty machinery, construction equipment, mobile hydraulics, industrial equipment, transportation systems, HVAC systems, and smart buildings. Position sensors are used for monitoring processes, testing, and automating processes, the demand for which will further create new growth opportunities for this market in the coming years as well.
  • High focus of manufacturing industry on accurate measurements and detailed inspection, as the manufacturing industry requires a high degree of accuracy to comply with industry standards. Manufacturers focus on 2 important parameters to produce high-quality products: accuracy of measurements and detailed inspection. Profiling, width, height, step, gap, V-gap, edge, angle, bend, groove, and surface are among a few crucial parameters that a position sensor measures. These sensors also detect, measure, and evaluate the profiles on different object surfaces and are suitable for various industrial applications, including HVAC systems, transportation systems, industrial equipment, mobile hydraulics, smart buildings, heavy-duty machinery, and construction equipment. Many measurement tasks become easier when the position sensor is integrated with the analytics software. Thus, the position sensor is useful where displacement, distance, length, or position parameters need to be measured for automating, testing, or monitoring processes.

Position Sensor Market Restraints

  • Higher ownership cost, the position sensor is manufactured/assembled using numerous components, such as position magnets, sensing rods, electronics housing fixtures, diagnostic light-emitting diodes (LEDs), and connectors, which are supplied by multiple vendors.
