Detailed analysis and profiling of additional market players (up to five)
The machine control system market is expected to be valued at USD 8.16 Billion by 2022, growing at a CAGR of 13.9% between 2016 and 2022. The growth of this market is propelled by the rising demand for precision and the enhanced productivity and optimized operations in the construction, transportation, and agriculture industries.
Total stations are expected to hold the largest share of the machine control system market in 2022. A total station is a comprehensive solution for grading; it provides the 3D visualization of the grading sites with the help of hydraulics mounted with GNSS or GPS systems. The handling of total stations is easier than that of other devices such as GNSSs and laser scanners, in terms of flexibility. Total stations can simultaneously do the job of graders, laser scanners, and scrapers. Due to these factors, the adoption of total stations is expected to increase during the forecast period.
Excavators accounted for the largest share of the machine control system market in 2015. Excavators are used in almost all construction operations as well in mining and transportation operations. Besides excavation, excavators can perform the task of loaders and dozers by loading dirt/materials on other hauling trucks. Graders ensure the level or elevation of the jobsite by fine grading using machine control systems. Owing to the precision and flexibility offered by graders in machine control systems, this market is expected to grow at the highest rate between 2016 and 2022.
The construction industry is expected to hold the largest share of the global machine control systemmarket in 2016. The use of machine control solutions has greatly revolutionized the construction industry. This industry holds the largest share of the machine control system market, owing to the increasing construction of commercial buildings, retail spaces, residential buildings, and non-commercial infrastructure worldwide. Moreover, the requirement of machine control systems in the construction industry is expected to increase with the rise in new construction projects.
North America led the global machine control system market in 2015. Factors such as extensive construction projects, including commercial and noncommercial buildings and highways; advancements in the agriculture sector; and emerging economies such as Mexico are driving the growth of the machine control system market in North America.
Excavators, dozers, graders are some of the types of equipment used in industries such as agriculture, mining, and construction of roads and rails, among others. These systems are installed in equipment to cater to the constant pressure to improve productivity, efficiency, and safety in earthmoving activities. Excavators, dozers, and graders, among other equipment, are expensive and their integration with machine control systems further increases the cost of integration and implementation. Thus, it is expensive for construction and mining operators to purchase or rent such equipment integrated with machine control systems. The initial cost required for the purchase of any of the equipment, followed by its integration with machine control, makes the investment high for the manufacturers. Thus, even though the machine control technology helps in completing the projects faster and at a lower cost, with high accuracy, the high initial investments restrain the market growth.
As of 2015, the machine control system market was dominated by companies such as Leica Geosystems (Switzerland), Topcon Corporation (Japan), Trimble Inc. (U.S.), and RIB Software AG (Germany). These players rely on their strong R&D capabilities and a balanced product portfolio to increase their customer base in the machine control system market.
