Market Trends of Industrial Metrology Industry
This section covers the major market trends shaping the Industrial Metrology Market according to our research experts:
Automotive Industry is Expected to Hold the Largest Share
- The automotive sector is expected to witness a major evolution during the forecast period, as automobile manufacturing is quickly moving to automated facilities. The need for highly reliable and quality processes and the rising demand for electric vehicles are expected to drive major growth.
- According to India Investment Grid, the USD 74 Billion Automobile industry is expected to reach USD 300 Billion by 2026. In addition, India is also planning to host four large auto manufacturing hubs in Delhi-Gurgaon-Faridabad in the North and Mumbai-Pune-Nashik-Aurangabad in the West, Chennai- Bengaluru-Hosur in the South, and Jamshedpur-Kolkata in the East.
- Moreover, the rising need for inspection, measurement, and quality checks of various components in the automotive sector is driving growth. The automotive industry has increasingly used optical measurement systems and coordinate measuring machines (CMM) instead of conventional strain gauges, accelerometers, transducers, and extensometers to improve vehicles' safety and comfort. In addition, according to Scotiabank, 66.7 million cars were sold worldwide in 2021. and it has expected to rise by 66.9 million units in 2022, which will drive studied market growth in the future.
- Technological advancements in automobiles are resulting in an increased level of precision of components. Every seat, door, panel, and component in an automobile must be precision aligned to promote passenger safety, comfort, and satisfaction. The necessity of tolerance measurement to inspect and assess equipment alignment on machinery is also driving the demand for metrology services. Furthermore, production of electric vehicles with a 500 km range will begin in India in 2024, according to Ola Electric. The project is the largest automobile undertaking ever in India.
- The shift in preference from off-line quality inspection to near-line or in-line measurement techniques, enabling higher sampling rates and shorter inspection times in the automotive sector, is driving the growth of the industrial metrology market for the automotive industry.

Asia Pacific to Register the Fastest Growth
- The Asia Pacific is expected to account for the largest share in the industrial metrology market during the forecast period. The growth in the Asia-Pacific is attributed to the region's growing automotive and manufacturing sectors. Also, continuous technological advancements by regional companies are propelling the market's growth.
- Moreover, large funding from governments of various Asia-Pacific countries in R&D and extensive industrial bases are the major contributors to the regional industrial metrology market. China, South Korea, and Japan are the major countries contributing to the market growth in the region.
- Further, in August 2021, Hexagon partnered with India's Central Manufacturing Technology Institute (CMTI) to establish a Smart Manufacturing Development and Demonstration Cell (SMDDC), an Industry 4.0 Centre of Excellence and Experience Centre, at the CMTI premises in Bengaluru, India.
- The industrial and power generation applications are expected to drive the metrology services market in Asia-Pacific. Metrology services are used in different power generations, including horizontal machine bearing, main shaft, casting, turbines, tops-off alignment, scroll case geometry and assembly, and other applications.
- In additional Metrology Conclave, Narendra Modi emphasized the country's operation toward improving the quality of products supplied under the Make In India campaign, government participation has been extended concerning improving quality control standards within regional industries. In January 2021, at the Nationgn. Establishing a national standardization and metrology system is a key supporter and essential part of the goal to become a regional and global hub for future industries and a global market for various industries.
