The aircraft actuators market in North America is expected to grow from US$ 2872.44 million in 2020 to US$ 4303.50 million by 2027; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 5.9% from 2020 to 2027.



The US, Canada, and Mexico are major economies in North America. Increasing Use of Electrotechnical Actuators. Aircraft flight control systems are shifting from bulky, heavy, and leaky hydraulic systems to an electric autonomous system. The advancements in electro-mechanical (EM) actuator, such as reliability, compact nature, light weight, and cost-efficiency, are mounting its adoption in aircraft. Commercial and military aircraft fleets are looking for advanced system, which are lighter in weight to enhance fuel efficiency. Actuators in aircraft are used in the functionality of landing gear, slats and spoilers, seats, flaps, positioning engine inlet guide vanes, rudder, ailerons, and opening and closing cargo or weapon bay doors, among others. Since, the aircraft OEMs are increasingly emphasizing on lightweight aircraft models, the electromechanical actuators are attracting the OEMs in the current scenario, which is catalyzing the aircraft actuators market. Another reason for the increasing adoption of electromechanical actuators is the paradigm shift of aerospace industry toward electric aircraft, which is obsoleting the hydraulic, pneumatic, and mechanical systems and are increasing the adoption of electric actuation systems. This trend is generating substantial demand for the electrical actuators, which is ultimately boosting the aircraft actuators market is also bolstering the growth of the industry.

The US is the worst-hit country in North America, with thousands of infected individuals facing severe health conditions across the country. The continuous growth of infected individuals has led the government to impose lockdown across the nation's borders during Q2 and Q3. The majority of the manufacturing plants either were temporarily shut or operated with minimum staff; the aircraft OEMs and aircraft components and associated product manufacturers witnessed disruption in supply chain; these are some of the North American countries' critical issues. Since the US has a larger density of aircraft manufacturers and aircraft associated technology and system manufacturers, followed by Canada and Mexico. The outbreak of the virus has severely affected the production of each. The lower number of manufacturing staff has resulted in lesser production quantity. From the aircraft OEM’s perspective, Boeing, the aviation giant in the region, has witnessed a significant fall in orders and production, which is one of the key restraining factors for the aircraft actuators market. Apart from Boeing, several other aircraft OEMs such as Bombardier, Textron, and Gulfstream, among others, also experienced tremors of COVID – 19 on their orders and production lines. From the supply side, the region has higher numbers of aircraft actuators market players. The restricted workforce, disruption in the supply chain, and limited volumes of orders have sternly shaken the aircraft actuators market players in the region. Due to COVID-19 pandemic impact, in September 2020, Airbus and Boeing delivered 57 commercial jets as compared to 71 deliveries, respectively, in the same month last year. In 2020, Boeing delivered 98, as compared to 204 shipments in the last year. The North American, aircraft manufacturing has been shattered by the momentary shutdown of aviation industry, which has been reflecting severely less demand for various types of systems and technologies including actuation system. Owing to this, the aircraft actuators market players have been witnessing noteworthy less demand; however, as the unlock measures started and airlines resumed their operations, the procurement rate of aircraft actuators begun to up rise at a slow pace
