Machine vision systems are also employed in non-inspection applications such as guiding robots, pick and place the parts, dispensing liquids and many more. Machine vision and components market is expected to experience significant growth in the coming years due to the increasing demand in industries such as automation, robotics and non–manufacturing which include intelligent transport system, logistics and medical, exhibiting substantial market growth. Machine vision systems are classified into three types, namely: Smart Vision Systems, PC-Based Vision Systems and 3D Vision Systems. Machine vision systems has set the highest growth record in North America in 2018. Whereas, Europe is the major manufacturer and exporter of these systems worldwide. Manufacturing industry is the largest end-user of these systems however, the growth of machine vision systems in non- industrial niche applications such as logistics, intelligent traffic systems, IP video surveillance, and others is also rising owing to ongoing improvements in the technology resulting in decreasing the costs of these systems.

The North America and Europe in total holds more than half of the overall market share, while the regions such as APAC, MEA, and SAM are exhibiting a high growth rate due to various factors such as increase advancements in technology and rise in the lifestyles of individuals in developed as well as developing countries of the world. Implementations of machine vision systems is expected to accelerate at a high growth rate in the coming few years due to technology, increasing progress of the capabilities of cameras and microprocessors, automotive and other industry verticals’ inclination towards implementing such solutions which can provide better efficiency, easy capacity expansion and optimized CAPEX. Many small and large organizations and enterprises in the above verticals have implemented machine vision systems solutions owing to the various advantages it offers, thus influencing the market revenues and growth rates globally. The growing industrialization, fast population growth and positive economic outlook of developing regions are some of the major factor that are anticipate to drive the growth of machine vision systems market in these regions. Developing countries such as China and India are expected to offer ample growth opportunities for the machine vision systems market players during the forecast period. Due to positive initiatives of policymakers and regulators in various developing countries to support manufacturing and promote industrial growth. The recent strategic initiatives such as “Made in China 2025 Initiative,” by China and “Make in India” by India are examples of such initiatives that are focused on boosting manufacturing sector and industrialization in these countries. The machine vision systems market has experienced high growth and implementations in the last few years and is also expected to experience a significant growth in years to come. One of the major reason for higher implementations of machine vision systems by various industry verticals is, the advancements in several related technologies taking place around the machine vision systems. Computer interfaces, the microprocessors and cameras, all these tools have evolved into highly capable and flexible tools/ components. The advances in technology have thus facilitated mass production and custom manufacturing of suppliers. Machine vision systems also provides end users with improved productivity and quality in the manufacturing process which also helps in achieving higher productivity along with increased profit margins.

The present century is characterized by tough competition in all major industry verticals. The manufacturers of various systems are facing tough competition on parameters such as costs, quality, technology, service, and time-to-market. Thus, to maintain market position and to achieve sustainable development, manufacturers are increasingly investing in advanced systems.

Type-Based Market Insights

On the basis of type, the global machine vision systems market is bifurcated into smart machine vision systems, PC-based vision systems and 3D machine vision systems. Machine vision systems are amalgamation of computer vision into industrial manufacturing processes. Machine vision make use of industrial image processing by using cameras which are placed over production lines and cells with the intention to visually examine, inspect products and control robots in real time without human intervention. Machine vision is also known as industrial vision and comprises of several cameras for capturing, interpreting and motioning individually with a control system connected to some pre-determined standards.

Component -Based Market Insights

On the basis of component, the global machine vision systems market is segmented into cameras, frame grabbers, processors, illuminations & optics, vision software, and others. A machine vision system works tirelessly performing 100%, resulting in improved product quality, increasing yields and reducing production cost. A machine vision system involves many critical components such as sensor (camera), processor, lens, lightings, and frame grabbers. Every machine vision system is reliable on these critical components for better results. The form of components varies with different types of machine vision systems. For example, PC-Based vision systems would require these components discretely; whereas, a smart camera vision system will have these components integrated in one module. Machine vision components play a vital role in every industry wherein machine vision systems are deployed.
