Global Magnetic Field Sensors Market 2011-2016
New York, Dec. 29, 2011 /PRNewswire via
COMTEX/ -
Reportlinker.com announces that a new market research report is
available in its catalogue: Global Magnetic Field Sensors Market by Product
(Angular, Revolution, Current, Position) by Technology (Hall Effect, Magneto
Resistive & Inductive, Fluxgate, Squid), & Applications (Consumer,
Automotive, Industrial, Aerospace & Defense) 2011 - 2016.
Magnetic field sensors are expected to show good
growth as they are widely used across different application segments. Early
applications for these sensors were essentially direction finding, or
navigation. Today, these sensors are still a primary means of navigation but
many more uses have evolved.
Automobile industry is a heavy user of magnetic field sensors; accounting
for almost 40% of the total magnetic field sensors market. One of the
largest applications for magnetic field sensors in automobiles is in
anti-lock braking systems (ABS) and engine control management systems.
Traditionally, the combined consumer and computing segments form the largest
user base for magnetic field sensors. Typical applications include cameras,
DVD players, hard disk drives, video-cassette players, printers, cell
phones, and washing machines. The other verticals such as healthcare and
defense are also contributing to the overall demand.
Besides, the increasing use of these sensors in other applications;
especially mobile handsets will boost sales. Magnetic field sensors are
being used as compass in handhelds and give increased sophistication to GPS
solutions. Electronic compass is expected to give a much higher thrust; with
the volume of sales set to treble form its level in 2010.
Developed markets such U.S., U.K., Japan/Korea are amongst the most
technologically advanced consumer electronics as well as automotive markets
due to the presence of prominent system suppliers, large semiconductor
companies, and sensor manufacturers. The size of the region, the affluence
of its consumers, and the competitiveness make it a good market for magnetic
sensor manufacturer. Most of the innovations in electronics design and
technology are deployed in these regions first; and then in rest of the
world.
Hall Effect sensors dominate the magnetic field sensors market with more
than 70% market share, while newer technologies such as AMR and GMR sensors
are gradually gaining visibility. The main suppliers of Hall Effect sensors
are Allegro, Micronas, Melexis, Austria Microsystems, and AKM. The major
vendors of AMR sensors are NXP, Sensitec, and Honeywell, while the main GMR
sensors suppliers are NVE Corporation, and Hitachi.
The demand for magnetic field sensors in the year 2010 was 3.67 billion
units; which are expected to reach 7.14 billion units in 2016 at a CAGR of
10.3%. In value terms, the magnetic field sensors market stood at $1.1
billion in year 2010 and is expected to reach $2.0 billion by year 2016, at
8.7% CAGR during the projected period.
Magnetic Field Sensor Market is triggered due to a lot of factors. For
magnetic sensor market, vehicle production in emerging markets, increasing
demand in gaming consoles, increasing popularity of electronic compass, and
continuous demand from computer and computing peripherals are acting as a
driver’s. Competition within the technologies, inconsistence in magnetic
field strength, and unavailability of strong aftermarket are acting as
restraints. The advancement of hybrid sensors and growth in hybrid and
electric vehicle are the future opportunities for magnetic field sensors.

Global Flow Sensors and Transmitters Market
Understanding customer needs and focusing on R&D
will be key to success, with the global market expected to reach $6,423.8
million in 2017
LONDON – 18 January, 2012 – Despite the negative impact of the 2008
economic recession, the global flow sensors and transmitters market is
expected to grow. The rising number of projects, the establishment of new
process plants, the financial recovery of numerous end-user industries, as
well as reinvestment in plant renovation, modernisation, capacity expansion
and technology development have led to a market resurgence.
New analysis from Frost & Sullivan (http://www.sensors.frost.com),
Global Flow Sensors and Transmitters Market, finds that the market earned
revenues of $4,847.6 million in 2010 and estimates this to reach $6,423.8
million in 2017.
“The quest for new energy sources, including oil and gas exploration,
coupled with increasing renewable energy development, is a significant
market driver,” notes Frost & Sullivan Industry Analyst V. Sankaranarayanan.
“Coriolis, ultrasonic and vortex flow sensors and transmitters are poised to
benefit from growth in the oil and gas as well as the chemical and
petrochemical end-user industries.”
Another key market driver is the rising emphasis on energy efficiency, with
better asset utilisation, reduction in maintenance costs, and enhanced
process monitoring. Automation and control solutions (including field
instruments) also play a vital role in achieving these goals, resulting in
heightened demand for flow sensors and transmitters.
These trends are spreading to emerging economies, where the increased use of
automated products is poised to boost demand for all types of sensors,
including flow sensors and transmitters.
While the market offers significant growth potential, participants will have
to focus on successful product differentiation to avoid price-based
competition. This will not be an easy task, given that there is little
technical innovation taking place in flow sensor technologies such as
positive displacement and turbine. It will be challenging for manufacturers
of such products to differentiate themselves from their competitors.
“The first step in a successful differentiation strategy is to understand
customer needs,” states Sankaranarayanan. “A strong relationship with both
distributors and customers will enable manufacturers to comprehend current
trends and optimise their product offerings.”
Accuracy and reliability are the major selection/purchase criteria in this
market. Therefore, manufacturers should be willing to invest heavily in
research and development (R&D), engineering and configuration to take
accuracy and reliability to the next level. R&D will also pave the way for
the development of feature-rich flow sensors and transmitters, which are
other important customer requirements.
