Rising Demand for Motorsport Testing & Development and Industrial Automation & Robotics to Drive Market
The adoption of industrial automation has increased in recent years, owing to its advantages such as increased productivity, reduced direct human labor costs, delivery of high-quality products, and increased consistency of processes or products.
Furthermore, the automotive industry in North America is significantly transforming, led by changing consumer preferences, sustainability policies, and surging emergence of new technologies. Adhering to stringent testing and development policies to ensure passenger safety is expected to augment the strain gauge load cell market during the forecast period.
Moreover, low-cost availability, minimum maintenance, and ability of strain gauge load cells to function at extreme temperatures make them a popular choice for use in industrial applications.
Strain gauge load cells are used in the aerospace sector, from the initial design of aircraft to pre-flight and in-flight stages. In the design phase, standard strain gauge load cells are used for the testing of aircraft components such as cockpit instruments, aircraft flaps, and seat belts. In the pre-flight stage, dual-bridge load cells test the frame structure. In the in-flight stage, strain gauge load cells monitor forces acting on the airframe, pilot’s touch onto the control stick, and the aircraft flight control system. These cells are also used in in-flight refueling of aircraft. These advantages of strain gauge load cells are, in turn, expected to augment the market during the forecast period.
The industrial segment is anticipated to dominate the global strain gauge load cell market throughout the forecast period.
Strain gauge load cells are often required for use in numerous load-bearing industrial applications for ensuring the safety of people and the environment, as well as for maintaining structural integrity. Other applications include docking locations and freight vehicles, which sustain extremely heavy loads on a regular basis.
Additionally, in the medical industry, weighing and monitoring is becoming an increasingly important issue day by day. Not only do patients need to be weighed but also different kinds of life-saving equipment need to have a measuring or weighing option.
