Industrial actuators are mechanical devices used to operate valves automatically, allowing for precise control over the flow of fluids within an industrial system without requiring direct manual intervention. An industrial valve controls the flow and pressure within a system or process. It performs various functions, including starting or stopping the flow, regulating or throttling the flow, preventing backflow, regulating pressure, and relieving pressure. These industrial valves & actuators are essential components in various industries, including water & wastewater management, oil and gas, chemical manufacturing, and power generation. Rapid industrialization in economies such as China and India propels the demand for industrial valve actuators. Expanding water & wastewater treatment projects worldwide are driving the usage of industrial valve actuators. High maintenance costs and initial investment associated with using advanced actuators hampers the adoption of industrial valve actuators. Growing development of actuators that consume less power without compromising performance and significantly lower operational costs are expected to create opportunities for the industrial valve actuators market.

Product: Growing usage of industrial valves to optimize industrial plant operations through enhanced valve diagnostics and analytics

Industrial valves are mechanical devices that control the flow and pressure of a system’s liquids, gases, and slurries. They are crucial for the control of processes within various industries. The subcategories include ball valves, gate valves, and butterfly valves. Electric actuators are preferred in applications requiring precise control, easy integration with modern control systems, and where cleanliness and energy efficiency are prioritized. Pneumatic actuators are favored for their reliability, high-speed operation, and suitability in hazardous environments due to their explosion-proof nature. Hydraulic actuators are ideal for applications needing high force with compact design, such as in the oil and gas or construction industry. Ball valves are chosen for their quick shut-off capabilities, reliability, and low-pressure drop, making them suitable for fluid control in various applications. Gate valves are utilized primarily for on/off control, typically in pipelines. Butterfly valves are preferred for their compact size and fast operation. Well-suited to handle large flow volumes and for use in space-constrained situations.
