“Growing awareness about predictive maintenance is propelling growth of smart pneumatics market”
The global smart pneumatics market expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.7% from 2018 to 2023, reaching USD 4.6 billion by 2023 from USD 3.3 billion in 2018. Smart pneumatic systems facilitate predictive maintenance through integrated diagnostics. For systems, such as valves, actuators, and cylinders, determining the state of wear from the outside is difficult; however, the addition of sensors and modules can provide information for analyzing the expected service life of systems. Preventive maintenance is carried out to avoid downtimes in critical applications. Therefore, the transition from preventive to predictive maintenance contributes significantly to the market’s growth. However, the lack of standardized certifications and government policies is a major factor restraining the smart pneumatics market’s growth.



“Smart pneumatics market to be driven by hardware component during forecast period”
The hardware components segment is expected to hold a significant share of the smart pneumatics market during the forecast period. Hardware components offered by smart pneumatics solution providers mainly include position sensors, pressure sensors, and motion sensors. These sensors, along with communications technology, are integrated into pneumatic systems, such as valves and actuators, enabling them to be “smart”. These devices are considered to be the main components of smart pneumatics systems. The data extracted by hardware components enable effective predictive maintenance to avoid costly downtime.

“Smart pneumatic actuators expected to grow at a higher CAGR during the forecast period”
The smart pneumatic actuator market is expected to witness significant growth during the forecast period. Smart actuators use sensors and other electronics to provide operational feedback (such as speed, force, end-of-travel, stroke length, and cycle time) to controllers. The collected data enable condition monitoring to determine if an actuator is performing as intended. By using such information, actuator performance can be optimized, saving end users time and money. Additionally, actuator failures can also be predicted and avoided.

“Smart pneumatics market in APAC to witness the highest growth rate in the coming years”
The smart pneumatics market in APAC is expected to grow at the highest CAGR from 2018 to 2023. APAC is a preferred manufacturing hub. China presents a huge potential for digital transformation of the manufacturing industry. Dense population, growing per capita income, large-scale industrialization and urbanization, and increasing adoption of IoT are the factors driving the growth of the market in this region. India is the fastest-growing country in APAC.
