Global Linear Motor Market By Product Type (Cylindrical Type, U-Shaped Slot Type, And Flat Plate Type), By Application (Automotive, Electronics, Food/Beverages, And Other Applications ), By Region, and Key Companies - Industry Segment Outlook, Market Assessment, Competition Scenario, Trends and Forecast 2022-2031

Market.us announces the publication of its most recently generated research report titled, “Global Linear Motor Market by Product Type (Cylindrical Type, U-Shaped Slot Type, and Flat Plate Type), By Application (Automotive, Electronics, Food/Beverages, Machine Tools, Material Handling, Medical & Pharmaceuticals, Packaging/Labelling, Semiconductor Machinery, Robotics, Mobile Off Highways, Agricultural and Construction, and Other Applications ), and by Region – Global Forecast to 2029.”, which offers a holistic view of the global linear motor market through systematic segmentation that covers every aspect of the target market.

The global linear motor market is projected to be US$ 1,318.7 Mn in 2019 to reach US$ 2,093.6 Mn by 2029 at a CAGR of 3.5%.

A linear motor produces thrust in a straight line by direct induction, rather than with the use of gears. The linear motor offers various advantages over other conventional systems such as stepper motors and hydraulic actuators. These systems are used in applications where accuracy and speed are essential. It is combined with servo controls that offer the high controlling ability, superior accuracy, and repeatability. Linear motor and servo controllers also coordinate easily and cost-effectively in any complex configurations. The velocity of one or multiple electric actuators can be controlled accurately, and can easily blend from one speed to another without stopping or overrunning position. Linear motors offer more flexibility to motion-control capabilities concerning velocity, multiple positions, output force, acceleration, and complex control of motion in variable situations over conventional systems. The mentioned factors are expected to drive the growth of the global linear motors market in near future.

Increasing applications of linear motors in different industries such as automotive, semiconductor, electronics, and others coupled with several advantages associated with the use of linear motors are expected to drive the growth of the linear motors market during the forecast period.

Linear motors offer various advantages over other conventional systems such as stepper motors and hydraulic actuators. Linear motors eliminate the need for elastic components such as couplings and gearboxes, which introduce backlash and error in the motion. As they do not depend on mechanical drive parts such as belts, pulleys, ball screws, pinions, and racks, linear motors have much higher accuracy and repeatability, which is expected to enhance the market growth favorably.

Global Linear Motor Market Revenue (US$ Mn), 2019–2029 

Demand for consumer electronic devices such as smartphones, convertible laptops, and TVs is increasing significantly, and in turn, leading to the expansion of existing production capacity and the setting up of new production facilities. This, in turn, is projected to drive the growth of the global linear motors market, and particularly revenue growth of two application segments, i.e. semiconductor and electronic segments.

The high initial investment in the field of linear motors is another factor expected to restrain the growth of the target market over the forecast period. Further, the limited use of linear motors in high-load applications is a major factor expected to hamper the growth of the global linear motor market.

Rapid growth in pharmaceutical industries in emerging countries is another factor expected to support the growth of the target market. The adoption of linear motors is increasing rapidly for application in scanning & imaging, lab automation, mobility, and patient handling applications, which require very high precision and speed. This is serving as a lucrative growth opportunity for the Linear Motor market

The global Linear Motor market is segmented based on product type, application, and region.
