The Global Market for Metrology Software is Projected to Reach US$522.8 Million by 2020
Rising Focus on Cost Reduction Drives the Global
Metrology Software Market, According to a New Report by Global Industry Analysts, Inc.
GIA announces the release
of a comprehensive global report on Metrology Software. The
global market for Metrology Software
is projected to reach US$522.8 million by 2020, driven by the growing focus of the
manufacturing sector to streamline production processes, reduce costs and
improve efficiency.
The global market for
metrology software is driven by recovering GDP, rise in consumer and business confidence,
rebound in manufacturing activity and restoration of health in key end-use
markets. Manufacturing inventory replenishment, against a backdrop of improving
consumer demand for goods and services will therefore spur demand for metrology
solutions in the coming years. The
manufacturing industry’s transition towards complete automation bodes well for
market growth. Major benefits of metrology software driving its adoption
include high design flexibility and accuracy; hardware independent features
that allow the software to support multiple combinations of legacy hardware;
and ability to integrate several functions within a single unit thereby
minimizing space requirements and size of equipment.
Newer metrology software
solutions are highly intuitive, easy-to-use, full-featured, and customizable.
Technology advancements have liberated metrology operations from the lab to the
production floor. Next-generation metrology software is automated and comprises
menu-driven programs, which are integrated with superior user interface. Point Cloud Metrology Software, Geometric Dimensioning
and Tolerancing, Laser Scanning Technology, On-Machine Metrology Software, Multisensor
Metrology Software, Automated Metrology Software and Robotic Metrology have all
contributed towards the growth and widespread adoption in the manufacturing
sector.
As stated by the new
market research report on Metrology
Software, Asia Pacific represents the largest and the
fastest growing market worldwide with a CAGR
of 7.1% over the analysis period. Robust infrastructure development, steady
economic growth, expanding automotive production, increasing automation of
manufacturing units, and the mass exodus of manufacturing activity to low-cost
developing countries, represent key growth drivers in the region.
Key players covered in the
report include 3D Systems Corporation, Aberlink Innovative Metrology LLP, AICON
3D Systems GmbH, BuildIT Software & Solutions Ltd, Carl Zeiss Industrial
Metrology, Creaform Inc., Delcam Plc, FARO Technologies Inc., GE Measurement
& Control Solutions, Heidenhain Corp., Hexagon AB, Konica Minolta Sensing
Americas Inc., Metrologic Group SA, Metrology Software Products Ltd, Micro-Vu
Corporation, Nikon Metrology Inc., Optical Gaging Products, RAM Optical
Instrumentation, Renishaw Plc, Rudolph Technologies Inc., The L.S. Starrett
Company, and Verisurf Software Inc., among others.
