According to research, the linear displacement sensors market is expected to grow at a market value of nearly $5.6 Billion by 2026, at approximately 6.2% CAGR. Linear displacement sensors are well-known to be displacement gauges that are utilized to measure the travel range from the object’s current position to its located point. These sensors are lightweight and small in size with a wide range of application sectors such as industrial, oil & gas, chemical, and others. Also, these sensors are used to measure dimension to find the object’s thickness, width, and height. Furthermore, the working principle of linear displacement sensors is of two ways includes non-contact measurement using the magnetic field, sound waves or light and other in direct contact with an object. In addition, sensors possess some of the properties such as high-resolution electric shutter, automatic level correction, and temperature drift. There are various applications such as positioning of electronics components on the PCB during manufacturing, a process control application, and other research purposes.

Market Dynamics

The considerably increasing industrial automation besides with growing electronics industry owing to strong growth in the adoption for smartphone and other electronic products are the predominant factors which drive the growth of the global displacement sensors market during the forecast period. The other factor thriving the market due to rising demand for non-contact sensing technology in the automotive sector. Government stringent rules and regulation for safety is one of the factors contributing to the growth of the linear displacement market. Furthermore, the major factors which are likely to fuel the market growth are the rapid growth in construction sector along with food and beverages industry due to high adoption of sensors for controlling various construction projects and in packaging products respectively. Moreover, the emerging economies such as China and India are anticipated to be the key source of growth for the market. However, usage of sensors for convenience and comfort of the passengers are the factors which are likely to spur the growth of the linear displacement sensors market during the upcoming year.
