The Global Micro Electromechanical Systems MEMS Devices Market size was valued at USD 5.3 billion in 2017, which is expected to reach USD 10.8 billion by 2028, growing at a CAGR of 7.2%. It is growing at a significant pace and the trend continues to rise with the demand for smart devices followed by actuators and other types of MEMS devices during the forecast period 2018-2028. Asia Pacific region holds considerable potential in terms of growth rate due to the increase in adoption of smartphones and tablets as well as the rising number of industrial automation systems across various sectors such as automotive, medical, agriculture, etc.
Micro Electromechanical Systems MEMS Devices are small and versatile micro-sized mechanical or electro-mechanical systems that can be used for sensing, actuating, control of motion, chemical analysis. MEMS devices are made up of silicon components such as piezoelectric crystals (which produce a voltage when under pressure), capacitors (used to store charge), and mechanically sensitive resistors which bend according to the applied strain.
The most common micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) are touchpads on laptop computers or smartphones, tiny switches found on computer keyboards, automobile airbag modules, gyroscopes for navigation applications such as GPS receivers, and virtual reality headsets. These devices have a variety of sensing capabilities including acceleration measurement which has been applied to measure G forces during automobile racing events. Others include pressure sensors to detect weight distribution across car seat cushions; displacement measurements can be used in automotive crash detection systems and data from linear accelerometers can be combined with data from angular sensors to provide a three-dimensional sense of orientation for the device.
On the basis of Type, the market is segmented into Actuators (smart switches), Sensors (pressure sensors).In 2017 actuators accounted for 54% of revenue in total microelectromechanical systems markets whereas sensors contributed to 46% of sales volume.
Actuators are a component of MEMS devices, which are used for actuation and control. Actuators are categorized as either electrostatic or thermal actuators. They can also be classified by the type of movable elements they use to produce motion: a piezo-electric actuator uses an electric charge to create movement; fluidic actuators move fluids within a chamber with pressure changes from pumps or valves; magnetostrictive actuators change lengths when exposed to magnetic fields.
Sensors are a type of electronic devices that pick up and convert physical data. They measure parameters such as temperature, pressure, speed, etc., which are translated into electrical signals for the microprocessor to analyze. In general terms, any device that picks up information from its environment and converts it to an appropriate signal is considered a sensor.
A typical example would be a thermometer used in homes or labs to measure temperature levels; while a motion sensor detects movement using infrared sensors or ultrasonic detectors. Other examples include gas sensors found on automobiles’ airbags, sonar (or echo sounders) commonly used for detecting submerged objects underwater by emitting pulses of high-frequency sound waves at regular intervals towards the water surface and measuring time.
On the basis of Application, the market is segmented into actuating applications, sensing applications, and others. Actuating Applications such as automobile steering and braking systems; automotive crash detection systems. Sensing applications which include pressure sensors to detect weight distribution across car seat cushions, displacement measurements can be used in automotive crash detection systems or linear accelerometers for navigation purposes like GPS receivers. The other application includes Gyroscopes for Virtual Reality Headsets.
On the basis of Region, the market is segmented into North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and Middle East & Africa. North America is the leading market in terms of revenue and share as it accounts for more than half of total volumes. North America holds its dominant position due to a high number of industrial robots integrated with MEMS devices. It expected to grow at a significant pace owing to high adoption rates of MEMS devices among end-users such as mobile phone manufacturers. Latin America offers promising prospects for growth owing to increasing awareness about products made using MEMS devices coupled with favorable government policies in the region.
Europe has been witnessing a surge in demand owing to increased investments by automotive OEMs, auto component makers, and consumer goods companies in production automation and higher adoption rate among end-users such as touchscreen displays from smartphones that employ micromechanical switches. Asia Pacific region is making rapid progress on the back of rising economies like China and India which are expected to drive increase penetration rates across diverse applications under several vertical sectors including agriculture, transportation & logistics industries.
