The automated optical inspection (AOI) system market is expected to reach USD 1,008.8 Million by 2022, at a CAGR of 17.1% between 2016 and 2022. The growth of this market is propelled by the miniaturization of PCBs, increasing demand for consumer electronics, and proliferation of electronics in the automotive sector.

The 2D system is expected to hold a large share of the overall Automated Optical Inspection System Market in 2016. The 2D AOI system has various advantages such as cost effectiveness, ability to inspect surface mount technology, high speed inspection, and color inspection capability. Further, 2D AOI systems have a high demand, owing to its less complex programmability and flexibility technology. 3D systems are expected to grow at a high CAGR in the overall Automated Optical Inspection System Market between 2016 and 2022. Various advantages such as capability of inspecting co-planarity of components, detecting lifted leads, and reduction in false call rates is contributing to the growth of the 3D AOI system market.

The AOI system varies in terms of technologies used for the inspection purpose. There are two technologies used in AOI systems, namely, inline AOI and offline AOI. The inline AOI system is part of the production line and is more suitable for inspecting components on a fast- moving production line, while the offline AOI system is used for the inspection of products in batches and its speed of inspection is relatively slow. Further, AOI system is an integration of different elements which include camera systems, lighting systems, computer systems, and software. AOI systems rely on these essential elements to perform efficient inspection and ensure high-quality of products.

The market for automotive is expected to grow at a high CAGR followed by consumer electronics and medical devices in the overall AOI system market between 2016 and 2022. The automotive market is growing due to the increasing demand for high-performance electronics components for safety-critical systems such as ADAS (advanced driver assistance system), braking systems, and airbags. Growth of the consumer electronics market is attributed to the growing demand for compact portable devices which include smartphones, tablets, laptops, and wearable devices. The market for medical devices presents a significant growth potential with the rise in use of electronic equipment in patient monitoring devices such as diagnostic devices, cardiovascular devices, and respiratory devices.

The APAC region accounted for the largest share of the Automated Optical Inspection System Market during forecast period. The key factors driving the growth of the APAC region is availability of low-cost labor, business-friendly environment, and low production cost. North America is expected to be the fastest-growing market in the overall AOI system market during the forecast period. The major driving factor for the growth of the North American market is the presence of a highly technology-oriented population and highly developed electronics industry.

One of the key restraining factors for the Automated Optical Inspection System Market is false call rate of image-based AOI systems. The players have designed 3D AOI systems to overcome limitations of conventional image-based inspection technology. The use of 3D AOI systems significantly reduces false call rate.

The key market players in the market such as Omron Corporation (Japan) and Koh Young Technology Inc. (South Korea) are focusing on new product launches, partnerships, expansions, and contracts strategies to enhance their product offerings and expand their business.
