Laser Technology Market by Type (Carbon Dioxide Laser, Fiber Laser, and Solid State Laser), Revenue (Laser Revenue and System Revenue), Application (Laser Processing and Optical Communications), End User, Geography Global Forecast to 2024
MarketsandMarkets forecasts the laser technology market to grow from USD 12.0 billion in 2017 to USD 16.9 billion by 2024, at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.6% during the forecast period. The major factors that are expected to be driving the market are increasing demand from healthcare vertical, enhanced performance of lasers over traditional material processing techniques, and shift toward production of nano and micro devices. The objective of the report is to define, describe, and forecast the market size based on type, revenue, application, end user, and region.
Laser Technology Market by laser type, the CO2 laser segment holds the largest share of the market
By laser type segment, CO2 laser segment is expected to hold the largest market share. The leading position, in terms of market size, of this type of laser can be attributed to its considerably compact size, suitability for a wide range of wavelengths, and utility in laser cutting, welding, structuring, perforating, drilling, and laser marking applications.
Laser Technology Market by revenue, the laser revenue segment is expected to grow at a higher growth rate during the forecast period
Among the revenue segment, the laser revenue segment is expected to grow at a higher CAGR during the forecast period, owing to revenue generated from the sales of several types of lasers, such as YAG laser, semiconductor laser, thin disk laser, ruby laser, fiber laser, X-ray laser, dye laser, excimer laser, argon laser, chemical laser, and helium-neon laser.
Laser Technology Market by application, laser processing holds the largest share of the market
Laser processing application segment is expected to hold the largest market share. This segment is likely to continue to hold the largest market share during the forecast period, which can be attributed to its ability to provide higher quality, more reliability, and more precise output than conventional mechanical methods. Laser processing involves using laser for applications such as materials processing, micro processing, and advanced processing.
Laser Technology Market by end user, telecommunications holds the largest share of the market
Telecommunications end user segment is expected to hold the largest market share. This vertical is likely to continue to hold the largest market share during the forecast period, which can be attributed to laser technologys ability to enable faster and secure data transmission, while consuming low power. Lasers allow efficient and higher bandwidth communication and it is the most crucial aspect in the existence of the web; without laser communication one would not be able to download images, music, and video files quickly.
Asia Pacific to account for the largest market size during the forecast period.
Asia Pacific is expected to hold the largest market size in the laser technology market during the forecast period. China, India, South Korea, and Japan are the major contributors to the growth of the market in APAC. Continuous demand for cost-effective and fast processing laser machine tools from semiconductor, automotive, industrial, and telecommunications verticals are expected to drive the growth of the market in APAC.
Laser Technology Market Dynamics
Driver:Increasing demand from healthcare vertical
The laser technology is used in healthcare applications such as urology, dermatology, dentistry, and ophthalmology. With continuous technology advancements and upgrades, the use of the laser technology has broadened for the treatment of various health-related issues, such as kidney stone, cancer, tumor, knee injury, prostate, varicose veins, heart diseases, and glaucoma. Ophthalmic laser assists in the treatment of eye-related issues such as glaucoma, retinal disorder, cataract, and macular degeneration. Moreover, laser technology is used for non-invasive medical treatments such as hair removal, skin rejuvenation, tattoo removal, photodynamic therapy, selective laser trabeculoplasty, and low-level laser therapy. The sales of medical laser systems are driven by increasing aging population, improvement in medical infrastructure, rising number of cosmetic surgeries, and increasing eye-related issues.
Restraint: Regulatory compliance
Regulatory compliances act as restraints for the growth of the laser technology market. The laser technology involves the application of solid and fiber lasers. These lasers use rare-earth elements such as neodymium, chromium, erbium, and ytterbium. The processing and refining of these rare earth elements can cause hazardous environmental consequences, if not properly managed. One of the major hazards is radioactive pollution caused by slurry tailings. Moreover, toxic acids are required during the refining process. Improper handling of toxic acids can result in extensive environmental damage. In 2010, China tracked illegal mining to protect the environment and its resources. Leaks from such mines find their way to the water supply, lake, and fertile land, thereby damaging it and posing a threat to humans present in the vicinity of the affected areas.
Opportunity: Adoption of laser technology in various verticals for quality check
Laser technology is used in automotive, healthcare, commercial, semiconductor and electronics, research, aerospace & defense, manufacturing, and other verticals for quality check. The laser technology helps enhance the product quality and in-process quality control at various manufacturing stages. This technology helps to check and measure geometric specification, dimensional inspection, and electrical testing. Geometric specification includes thickness, distance, radius, and surface outline.
In the automotive vertical, the laser technology is used to manufacture components such as powertrain and control elements. Moreover, lasers are mainly used to process the interiors and bodyworks of vehicles in a reliable, quick, and accurate process. The use of measurement systems during these processes helps monitor the work quality, thereby reducing the probability of flaws occurring at a considerably early stage. The laser technology provides precision in the welding and cutting process of automotive parts, which is crucial for quality assurance in high-volume production.
Challenge: Requirement for low-cost solutions
Lasers required for processes, systems, and applications are in the range of a few hundred to thousands of watts. High-power lasers are used in large-scale laser displays, medical, military, research, laser-induced nuclear fusion, and material processing (welding, cutting, drilling, soldering, marking, and surface modification). Although laser technology helps reduce workforce and related cost in the automotive and manufacturing industries, its deployment involves a huge investment. For instance, the cost of owning excimer laser systems is considerably high because of high manufacturing and service costs. Hence, the growing demand for lasers for processing generates a requirement for low-cost solutions so that the technology can be adopted on a wide level. Players in this market are working toward generating low-cost solutions to avail maximum benefits because of high-volume consumption.
