Market Trends of Global Thermocouple Temperature Sensors Industry
This section covers the major market trends shaping the Thermocouple Temperature Sensors Market according to our research experts:
Automotive Industry is Expected to Register a Significant Growth
- The need for temperature sensors for safety and precision measurements of smart automotive equipment to analyze and produce timely sensor data is likely to increase because of the miniaturization of intelligent sensor technology. This is expected to fuel the demand for thermocouple temperature sensors in this application.
- Further, Automatic Temperature Control (ATC) is a common feature in most electric vehicles and high-end models in the mid-range segment. The increased sales of electric vehicles among high disposable income regions, such as the United States, Germany, and China, provides an opportunity to grow the thermocouple temperature sensors market.
- The battery charges used for charging multiple devices in the automotive segment are equipped with temperature-sensing elements that regularly check and monitor heating issues. This is a common problem with batteries mostly used in automated vehicles. This helps in increasing the life of devices and decreases damage. Thereby ensuring that the batteries are sufficiently charged.
- The increasing production of electric vehicles is expected to drive the demand for thermocouple temperature sensors.
North America Holds the Largest Market Share
- The United States is expected to have a prominent share in the thermocouple temperature sensor market. The country is one of the largest automotive markets in the world and is home to over 13 major auto manufacturers. Electric vehicle use in the United States has risen rapidly, with an estimated 1% of automotive sales in the US market for electric vehicles.
- California dominates the US market in terms of sales of electric vehicles (EVs). It's Zero Emission Vehicle (ZEV) program is driving the demand for EVs, by requiring automakers in the states to sell a certain percentage of electric cars. The US auto market is likely to further pressurize automakers to expand their affordable EV offerings. Hence, fueling the demand for thermocouple temperature sensors in the country.
- Further, US aerospace manufacturers are very competitive internationally. In 2017, the aerospace industry contributed USD 143 billion in export sales to the US economy. Companies in the aerospace sector, such as Boeing, won contracts worth USD 12 billion in 2018, to supply 47 new 787 Dreamliner jets to American Airlines. Similarly, the company signed a deal with Singapore Airlines for the delivery of 39 new wide-body jets, worth USD 13.8 billion, in 2017. The above-mentioned trends are expected to drive the demand for thermocouple temperature sensors in the country.
