January 2024 | Report Format: Electronic (PDF)

Linear Actuator Market Growth & Trends

The global linear actuator market size is anticipated to reach USD 94.3 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 8.9% from 2024 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The rise in industrial automation and robotics is significantly fueling the expansion of the market. These electromechanical devices play a vital role by transforming rotational motion into linear motion, providing precise control and movement in a wide range of applications. The increasing focus on improving productivity, efficiency, and accuracy in manufacturing processes has resulted in the widespread integration of linear actuators into automated systems.

The aerospace and defense sectors necessitate actuation systems that are both high-performing and dependable to fulfill stringent requirements. Linear actuators play a crucial role in a wide range of applications within these industries, including aircraft wing flaps, landing gear mechanisms, missile guidance systems, and satellite positioning systems. The demand for linear actuators in these sectors arises from the necessity for precise and responsive motion control, decreased weight, and heightened safety measures. These actuation systems are vital in ensuring the optimal functioning and reliability of critical aerospace and defense components.

The integration of linear actuators into preexisting systems or retrofitting them into older equipment can present significant challenges in many cases. These obstacles arise from disparities in actuator specifications, mechanical compatibility, and control interface requirements. Retrofitting linear actuators may necessitate supplementary modifications or adaptations to the current infrastructure, resulting in elevated costs and heightened complexity. These integration barriers have the potential to discourage prospective end-users from embracing linear actuators, particularly in industries that heavily rely on retrofitting for automation purposes.

The application of linear actuators extends to electric vehicle components including seats, motorized windows, and sunroofs. Within EVs, the conversion of electrical energy into linear motion by linear actuators occurs with exceptional efficiency, a crucial aspect in EVs where energy efficiency holds significant importance. These actuators find utility in diverse EV applications, including the control of window and sunroof movements and seat position adjustments, among others. As the adoption of EVs continues to surge, the demand for linear actuators is poised to rise in tandem. Furthermore, advancements in technology contribute to the enhanced efficiency, precision, and durability of linear actuators. Consequently, these factors amplify the demand for linear actuators across various industries, creating an opportunity for market growth.
