Automated Stationary NDT & Inspection Systems Market

The global automated stationary NDT & inspection systems market is projected to grow from an estimated USD 767.4 million in 2025 to USD 1,195.9 million by 2030, registering a robust CAGR of 9.3% during the forecast period. This growth is fueled by the rising demand for inline, real-time quality assurance across high-throughput production lines and the increasing shift toward automation in industrial environments. Key drivers include stricter regulatory and safety compliance requirements, aging infrastructure across developed and developing economies, and a shrinking skilled labor pool, prompting the need for operator-independent inspection solutions. Advancements in AI, machine vision, and multi-technology integration further enable greater accuracy, consistency, and productivity, positioning automated stationary NDT systems as essential components of Industry 4.0 transformation.

The automated stationary NDT & inspection systems market features major players EVIDENT (Japan), Waygate Technologies (US), FOERSTER (Germany), Eddyfi (Canada), and Magnetic Analysis Corporation (US). In the automated stationary NDT & inspection systems market, two primary strategies prevail—acquisitions and product launches. For example, Eddyfi Technologies excels in both acquisitions and product innovation within the automated stationary NDT & inspection systems market. It acquired NDT Global (2020) and Sisgeo (2025) to expand its ultrasonic pipeline inspection and structural monitoring capabilities. Recent product launches include WeldXprt, Cypher, TubePro 6, and Lyft 2.6, reflecting its commitment to advanced, AI-enabled NDT solutions and broader application coverage. Waygate Technologies, a Baker Hughes company, has formed strategic collaborations to integrate AI and digital tools into its inspection systems, enhancing automation and data analytics capabilities. FOERSTER has focused on long-term technology partnerships with European system integrators to co-develop customized magnetic flux leakage and eddy current testing platforms tailored for metal producers.
