The press fit connector market is expected to grow from US$ 8,045.0 million in 2021 to US$ 11,069.9 million by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 4.7% during 2021–2028.

Press fit connectors have a high demand in the networking and communication sector as they enable enhanced connectivity and reliability. Syneo, a precision tooling and machine manufacturer, is using the compliant-pin technology to produce highly reliable electromechanical interconnects without using solder. This is being achieved through the insertion of a specially stamped terminal into a plated-through hole (PTH) of a printed circuit board (PCB). Further, advancements in connector technology are leading to improvements in device performance, along with offering better space utilizing solutions. The press fit connector market players are developing high-speed end connectors for Serializer/Deserializer (SERDES) applications, such as supercomputing, high-speed networking, and supercomputing. In April 2019, Fairview Microwave Inc., a brand of Infinite Electronics, introduced a new series of high-speed PCB connectors, supporting the high data rates. Similarly, in February 2019, Pasternack, a semiconductor device manufacturing company, introduced a new series of edge launch, PCB connectors in the market. These newly launched connectors are designed for high-speed networking and supercomputing applications, as they support high data rate transfers. The growing consumption of high-speed networking devices and computers is a major support to the press fit connector market growth.

The increasing adoption of consumer electronics such as digital cameras, printers, TVs, gaming consoles; and connected devices such as laptops, tablets, PCs, and smartphones, is further driving the demand for high-speed connectivity. To meet these requirements, advanced connectors are introduced in the market to facilitate faster, efficient, and compact interfaces. Thus, the demand for press fit connector devices is increasing with the rising consumption of computers, networking devices, cloud servers, and advanced electronics in the telecommunications sector.

Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Press Fit Connector Market

The COVID-19 pandemic hampered the economic growth of almost all countries. A severe impact on the manufacturing sector is witnessed due to business shutdowns and lockdowns. Sales of various industrial products such as automotive cars and electronics are declined. Office premises, public places, schools, transportation, and other spaces also remained closed, which declined the market growth. The semiconductor industry took a significant hit as the demand for electronic components was lowered from the industrial sector and end users. The revenue model for microelectronics has declined as no mass production was carried in the lockdown period. Post lockdown, the semiconductor industry started to regain the market share as production facilities restarted the operation by taking social distancing measures. Besides, work from home and remote monitoring strategies also helped increase the sale of advanced electronics products for better connectivity. The COVID-19 pandemic created a major impact on the semiconductor industry for the first half of 2020, while in the third quarter, according to The Semiconductor Industry Association (SIA), worldwide sales increased by around 11%. Companies in the press fit connector market are functioning at full capacity in countries where the pandemic has subsided. However, the Delta variant of the novel coronavirus is a matter of concern for the US, India, and other several countries.

Press Fit Connector Market Insights

Growing Use of Electronics and Infotainment Systems in Automotive Sector

Connected cars, driverless cars, modern telematics, and advanced infotainment systems are among the modern trends in the automotive sector, which are bolstering vehicle sales. Electric and infotainment systems require advanced connectors to support faster rates of data transfer. Thus, with increasing electrification of vehicles and the rising adoption of telematics in them, the demand for press fit connectors is also on the rise. According to the DSM company, ~98% of all new cars are estimated to have an internet connection by 2020. These new connected cars will create demand for 15 FAKRA/HSD connectors. The connectors are integrated to establish a connection between coaxial cable and transceivers and receivers located in FM signals, vehicle GPS, satellite radio, cellular communications, and safety applications, among others. Hence, with increasing thrive for advanced connectivity in cars and other vehicles, the demand for the press fit connectors is also increasing.

Further, with the growth of the connected vehicle trend, the demand for durable electrical and electronic systems is also growing. Applications such as in-vehicle navigation, infotainment, and electric and hybrid drivetrains require many new connections. As a result, companies operating in these business segments are opting for the press fit connector technology to augment and replace solder joints. A press fit connection, which is highly reliable, includes an elastic pin and a plated through-hole (PTH). The PTH is drilled into a layered circuit board that is electroplated, typically with copper, to create the circuit on insertion of the press fit pin.

The press fit connector market players are also introducing new products for supporting evolving needs of the automotive industry, especially regarding high-speed connectivity solutions. For instance, in September 2019, Kyocera Corporation company introduced new 5655 Series electronic board-to-board connectors for high-speed data transmission. The new connectors that ensure the lowest stacking height for customers are ideal for automotive electronics. Therefore, the growing use of advanced electrical systems in vehicles is contributing to the press fit connector market growth.
