Rapid Expansion of Manufacturing Industry Drives Europe Machine Vision Lighting Market
The global manufacturing industry is rapidly expanding as more regions are investing in setting up manufacturing plants in their localities. As manufacturing scales up, there is an increased emphasis on maintaining high-quality standards. Machine vision systems, supported by effective lighting solutions, enable detailed inspection and quality assurance to meet stringent production requirements. In electronics manufacturing, where miniaturized components demand high precision, machine vision systems equipped with advanced lighting can detect circuit board defects and ensure final product quality. Also, machine vision systems contribute to increased efficiency and throughput by providing real-time inspection capabilities. Proper lighting is essential for capturing accurate and detailed images, allowing for rapid decision-making in the manufacturing process. For example, in the food & beverages industry, machine vision systems with optimized lighting are employed to inspect the quality of packaged goods, ensuring efficient throughput while adhering to hygiene and safety standards. Moreover, the expansion in the manufacturing industry is highly driven by global economic growth. Also, the industry is currently in the middle of a technological renaissance, changing modern factories' systems, outlook, and processes. This technological revolution in factories has been encouraging the manufacturing industries to invest further in these emerging technologies to enhance their production cycle and productivity. Thus, the rapid expansion in the manufacturing industry is driving the demand for machine vision lighting globally.
Europe Machine Vision Lighting Market Overview
Major countries considered in Europe include Germany, France, the UK, Spain, and Italy. The European machine vision market is witnessing tremendous growth both in manufacturing and non-industrial application fields. Growth in medical technology and intelligent traffic systems is one of the biggest drivers for this growth. Other sectors-apart from industrial manufacturing-that are propelling the demand include transport and logistics. Most of the machine vision systems manufacturers are based in Europe and export these systems across the globe.
Furthermore, Europe comprises several major manufacturing industries such as aerospace, machinery & equipment, automotive, shipbuilding, and military vehicles. The automotive industry of the EU is considered to be an essential industry as it significantly contributes to the country's GDP (6.8%) and provides employment to millions of people in the region. According to the ACEA, manufacturing facilities in the EU accounted for 19.2% of the total cars manufactured in the world in 2022. Germany holds a significant share of 30% of the automotive industry in the region. Major car manufacturers such as VW, BMW, Opel, Daimler AG, and Audi have a noticeable presence in the country. On average, Germany produces ~6 million passenger and commercial vehicles every year. The robust automobile industry, especially due to the presence of major premium car manufacturers, is anticipated to drive the machine vision lighting market. The vehicle manufacturing industry produces around 19.6 million cars, vans, buses, and trucks per year. Moreover, around 300 vehicle assembly and manufacturing facilities are located in around 27 countries across the region. Automotive, electronics, and white goods are among the industries driving the European market. The automotive industry requires a warehouse for assembling and storage purposes. These warehouses are equipped with automated robots with machine vision systems that can perform various tasks such as verification, inspection, reading of character blocks on the engine, and so on. Furthermore, the food industry is one of the major industries in this region. Automation here helps reduce the contamination risk, which proves to be beneficial to both the customer and the manufacturer. The robust manufacturing sector of the EU, coupled with extensive R&D investments, is anticipated to bolster the growth of the machine vision lighting market.
