Market Dynamics
Introduction
Piezoelectric Devices are devices that use the piezoelectric effect to convert mechanical energy into electrical energy and vice versa. These processes are done in specific materials like ceramics and crystals, making them crucial components across various industries, such as in industrial automation for precise motion control, in the aerospace sector for converting vibrational energy from aircraft movement into electrical energy, and in the healthcare sector for ultrasound imaging for precise diagnostics.
Market Drivers
Growing Automotive Industry
Piezoelectric devices are used in the automotive industry for various functions, including actuators, sensors, and fuel injectors, all of which enhance fuel efficiency, safety, and overall vehicle performance. As global demand for automotive gradually increases, production is also increasing to meet the demand. This growth in automobile manufacturing is generating significant demand for piezoelectric devices, making the automotive industry is one of the leading end users of this market. Furthermore, the advancements in driving aids and the integration of Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems (ADAS) and automation are necessitating the use of piezoelectric devices in automotives.
Widespread usage in the Aerospace & Defence Sector
Piezoelectric devices play a crucial role in monitoring the structural health of aircraft by detecting stress, strain, cracks, and fatigue in aircraft structures and enhancing flight safety. As these components are vital in aircraft manufacturing, the rising global demand for new aircraft is expected to significantly increase the need for Piezoelectric devices within the aerospace and defence sector, leading to a significant growth of the global piezoelectric devices market. According to Airbus, there will be demand for over 42,000 new aircraft between 2024 and 2043. As aircraft manufacturing grows, the demand for piezoelectric devices will also continue to rise.
Market Challenges
Stringent Regulatory Compliance
The extensively used material in piezoelectric devices, including motors, musical instrument pickups, solid-state batteries, sensors, transducers, etc. is Lead zirconate titanate (PZT). The usage of PZT materials has a toxic effect on the environment, and because of this, several countries have restricted the application of this, including the European Union. Moreover, lead exposures have bad effects on the brain, bones, blood, liver, teeth, and kidneys, and with that, the WHO has also suggested that lead is a harmful metal.
High Manufacturing Input
High production expenses heavily impact the piezoelectric devices market, influencing manufacturing and pricing policy. The production of high-quality materials such as single crystals and textured ceramics is costly, because of processes like templated grain growth (TGG) that involve critical alignment of anisometric, chemically inert template particles. Miniaturisation and precision manufacturing for MEMS applications require sophisticated equipment, trained manpower, and strict quality control, making it expensive. Moreover, coupling piezoelectric devices with systems such as flexible electronics and IoT calls for custom designs and advanced testing, further driving up costs.
Recent Developments:
- In June 2024, CeramTec GmbH (Germany) launched the ceramic substrate Sinalit. It is an enabler for more diversity in solutions and more sustainability. The properties of silicon nitride enable performance improvements in many areas and strengthen them. It contributes to a successful energy transition in electromobility or new energies.
- In February 2024, Aerotech (US), one of the global leaders in precision motion control and automation, expanded its partnership with Korean distributor ANI Motion Tech. The latest joint venture is a new manufacturing and research facility in Korea’s Songdo Knowledge Information Industrial Complex.
