Actuators Companies

The global actuators market is projected to grow from USD 71.22 billion in 2025 to USD 100.41 billion in 2030, at a CAGR of 7.1% during the forecast period. The rising adoption of automation technologies across industries is a key market driver, as actuators are critical in enabling precise motion control, energy efficiency, and safety in applications such as automotive, aerospace, healthcare, oil & gas, manufacturing, and renewable energy. The increasing demand for electric actuators over traditional hydraulic and pneumatic systems reshapes the market, driven by advantages such as lower maintenance, higher energy efficiency, and better integration with digital control systems. Additionally, the adoption of smart actuators integrated with sensors, IoT connectivity, and AI-based predictive analytics enables real-time monitoring, fault detection, and remote operation, further boosting growth.

Emerson Electric Co. (US), PARKER HANNIFIN CORP (US), ABB (Switzerland), Rockwell Automation (US), and SMC Corporation (Japan) are some key players in the actuators market. These players have incorporated various organic and inorganic growth strategies, including collaborations, acquisitions, product launches, partnerships, and expansions, to strengthen their international footprint and capture a greater share of the actuators market.
