Segmental Analysis :

The Optical Encoder Market is segmented into three major segments based on type, end-user, and region.

Based on type, the market is segregated into absolute encoder, incremental encoder, and others.

  • In 2022, the absolute encoder segment accounted for the largest revenue share of 49.22%. It provides the most absolute angular position and offers benefits like compact design, high immunity to electrical noise, and accurate motion detection among others.
  • The incremental encoder segment is expected to witness the fastest CAGR from 2023 to 2031. It converts the angular motion of a shaft into digital or analog codes, provides advantages like explicit speed and distance feedback, and is cost-effective.

Based on the end-user, the market is segmented into automotive, aerospace & defense, healthcare, robotics, textile, and others.

  • The automotive segment held the largest revenue share in 2022, attributed to an increase in the production of automobiles around the globe and a growing demand for automobile motion control systems.
  • Also, the aerospace and defense segment is expected to register the fastest CAGR during the forecasted period of 2023-2031, due to a rise in commercial flights, aircraft production, and a need for advanced air defense systems.

By region, the market is divided into regions including North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East and Africa, and Latin America.

  • In 2022 the market was valued at USD 943.35 Million in the North American region and is expected to reach up to USD 1,022.48 Million in 2023.
  • The Asia-Pacific region is anticipated to witness the fastest CAGR of 11.2% and is valued at 602.79 Million in 2022. Out of these, China accounted for the largest revenue share of 27.3% in the year 2022.
