Industrial Computed Tomography Market Analysis
The Industrial Computed Tomography Market size is estimated at USD 502 million in 2024, and is expected to reach USD 773.45 million by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 9.03% during the forecast period (2024-2029).
The pandemic virus has limited employees working on the production lines by replacing them with automated detection and monitoring systems. This has been increasing the demand for the computed tomography in the industrial sector. For instance, the South Korean government is offering an impetus up to KRW 20 billion (USD 16.8 million) to cover relocation and facility costs for firms relocating to regions outside the capital and up to KRW 15 billion to tech firms relocating to the capital region of Seoul. This is expected to boost the demand for industrial testing, detection, and monitoring systems, thereby augmenting the market for the computed tomography.
- There is an increasing interest in applying CT scanning technology into food production facilities for foreign body detection. The primary drivers include retailers demanding higher quality inspection regimes that cannot be provided by metal detection technology alone and a desire for improved product quality, opening up new customer bases, or maintaining margins with existing customers by delivering high-quality products.
- The aerospace and defense (A&D) industry is positioned for strong global growth, with Asia-Pacific leading the way, with around 40% of the demand accounting for 16,930 deliveries. This makes for an A&D service market of USD 3.365 billion (source: Cyient, 2019). The growing demand for commercial jets from emerging regions (as witnessed in the increase in the delivery orders by key vendors such as Airbus over the last two years) is expected to open up new opportunities in the aerospace industry.
- Also, Collins Aerospace Systems, in June 2019, made a strategic investment in Singapore by developing an aerospace innovation hub for additive manufacturing and MRO processes. Such investments prompt the market opportunity for industrial CT in the aerospace and defense sector.
- Consequently, with the intensification of growth of the A&D industry, industrial X-ray (DR) and computed tomography (CT) systems for non-destructive testing can meet the most critical aerospace/defense standards and ensure safe and reliable inspection of aircraft parts and materials, thereby supporting the operator at the inspection process, and also boosting the production of prototypes, as well as for spot-check sample inspection, paving the way for the growth of industrial CT market in the domain.
