Global SCR power controller market is likely to register modest growth over the forthcoming time period owing to rapid urbanization and growing demand from end-use industries such as food & beverages, plastics, oil & gas, and semiconductors among many others.

SCR or silicon-controlled rectifiers are known as switching devices for electrical power comprising of a control circuit and thyristors. In comparison to contactors, the SCR power controllers provide a reasonably economical means of power control. Additionally, they do not suffer from any maintenance issues of mechanical devices. In addition, advantages such as extended heater life, decreased peak power consumption, and silent operation. Also, reduced maintenance costs, closer process control, no mechanical wear and sparking will drive the demand for SCR power controllers in comparison to other temperature control methods.

Global SCR power controller market is divided into segments in terms of load, phase, control method, current load, end-use, and regional landscape.

With respect to current load, the global SCR power controller market is classified into > 1000 A, >500 a?? 1000 A, >50a?? 500 A, and a?? 50 A. The rising demand for industrial heating and temperature control solutions for infrared heating will augment the industry growth for>50a?? 500 A current load segment.

The >500 a?? 1000 A is slated to witness substantial growth owing to the rising demand for processed metal & glass products across the globe thereby witnessing a comprehensive business growth. The >1000 A segment is expected to witness sustainable growth in the future due to the increasing demand for high capacity furnaces & stoves.

In terms of end-use, the overall SCR power controller market is bifurcated into oil & gas, glass, plastics, metals, food & beverages, and semiconductor. Other industries include textile, automotive, paper & pulp, wood finishing, packaging industry among many others. Semiconductor industry is a fast-paced manufacturing industry that requires minimum operational downtime in heating processes which will augment the product adoption in the forthcoming years.

Plastics end-use segment will witness substantial gains over the coming years. Requirement of heating control for a wide range of processes including plastic processing, thermoforming, varnish, and others will propel the product demand. The glass end-use segment will observe robust growth over the coming years. High precision temperature regulation in glass molding will drive the SCR power controllers market demand.

From a regional frame of reference, governmental concerns toward effective utilization of electricity along with emphasis toward enhancing energy efficiency will augment the market growth for SCR power controllers across Europe. Growing urbanization coupled with robust industrial sector growth will positively influence the power controller market across Latin America.
