Market Size & Growth
Key Market Drivers
Challenges
The current adoption of digital transformation in both emerging and advanced economies is coupled with the increasing automation across different industrial processes will support the industry growth. Besides, the rapid acceptance of Industry 4.0 ventures and further acceleration of automation are likely to increase the demand for these products.
Companies in the automation field are actively developing and launching new products to address changing customer requirements. For instance, Leadshine introduced its coreless micro servo system in the SPS exhibition, held in Germany in November 2023. This system, which includes an extremely compact servo drive, coreless micro motor and micro encoder offers benefits such as small size, efficient performance at high and low speeds, and high-power density. Furthermore, increasing demand for accurate motor control systems coupled with growing tendency to reduce energy and cost will further enhance industry's dynamics.
AC Servo Motors and Drives Market Trends
The need for environmental conservation coupled with innovation in industrial automation is accelerating the growth of the AC servo motors and drives industry. Increased attention on technology and the integration of IIoT for improving system efficiency and minimizing energy consumption will positively impact industry dynamics. For example, in September 2023, Mitsubishi Electric Automation launched the next generation of products in the MELSERVO-J5 Servo line. The new MR-J5 servo units boast technological improvements and enhanced performance including HK-KT/ST servo motors, characterized by their high-speed capability at 3000 rpm of rated speed. Moreover, accelerating investments for industrial development and inclination on reducing energy consumption will augment the industry outlook.
