Market Trends of Russia Automotive Reed Sensors Switches Industry
This section covers the major market trends shaping the Russia Automotive Reed Sensors Switches Market according to our research experts:
Increasing use of Electronic Components
Automotive interiors typically incorporate zero power consumption and low-profile reed switch sensors to operate efficiently and safely. These may range from door lock actuation, speedometer, power window operation, infotainment, and in-vehicle navigation centres. Also, side and rear-view mirrors, cruise control and power steering, visual indicators of battery life, and interior dome lighting and emergency lights utilize reed sensors.
As the switches are free from mechanical wear and are hermetically sealed, this helps extend life. Companies also provide custom reed switches, which can be in SPST, with choice of NO or NC contacts and SPDT configurations. For instance, Reed Switch Developments Corp. offers different sized reed switches, and customers may choose from various reed materials with varying sensitivities and wattages (0.25W - 100W). A wide selection of available case materials includes Celanex, Celcon, Lexan, Epoxy, and Valox. Aluminum, stainless steel, and brass housings.
Magnetic reed switch actuators are also one of the most sold interiors. These include custom molded magnets, configured to meet user-specific mounting and operational requirements. In comparison, wire and cable options are also commonly sold, surrounded by an insulating material ranging from 18-26 AWG sizes.
Rise in Safety Features in Vehicles Driving Growth
With a rise in the number of light commercial vehicles and increasing accidents at the global level, the demand for safety features is increasing, especially in the mid-level cars. To turn down the number of accidents and enhance consumers' safety, many nations worldwide have introduced safety norms in the automotive industry.
Reed switches are also finding more significant application as a component in electric vehicle chargers. Reed switches allow chargers to detect when they're plugged into the car and how much electricity to conduct, and they also minimize the risk of electric leakage or misfiring. The increasing popularity of these eco-friendly cars means higher sales of the switches.
Today, the Reed switch market is hugely driven by the evolution of the internet of things (IoT). IoT offers an increase in automotive safety solutions and automation. However, the advanced reed switch is yet to make a mark in the market. Functional issues associated with reed switches like high demand for smaller and higher durability are becoming vital opportunities for the future.
