The Global Aviation Actuator System Market Is Projected To Grow From USD 14.5 Billion In 2022 To USD 24.1 Billion By 2030, At A CAGR Of 5.4% From 2022 To 2030.
Aviation Actuator System Market Overview:
Actuators are primarily used to convert electrical signals into mechanical motion or other physical variables such as temperature or pressure. Therefore, it plays an important role in the functioning of the control system. For example, in applications in the aerospace industry, it is important that actuators achieve very high dynamic forces and fit into small and tight spaces. They must also withstand ambient conditions such as strong vibrations, heat and cold. Also in the aviation industry, a wide range of applications are controlled by actuators, such as controlling and limiting speed and engine speed by adjusting levers and flaps. Actuators are also mounted on the aircraft's valves and engines.
The air actuator system market has witnessed significant growth over the past 20 years. This is mainly attributable to increased demand for aircraft due to surge in global passenger traffic. Demand for commercial airliners has increased significantly in recent years. This growth can be attributed to continued economic growth, rising consumer spending, particularly in developing countries such as India and China, and increasing global passenger traffic. To meet the growing passenger traffic, production of several new aircraft has increased, such as the Boeing 737 Max, the Airbus A320neo and A350, and the Bombardier C series primarily used for air travel. These factors are likely to drive the global air actuator system market over the forecast period.
Aviation Actuator System Market size, estimates and forecasts are provided in terms of sales volume (K units) and revenue (million USD), with historical and forecast data for the period 2017 to 2030, with 2022 being considered as the base year.

Significant Market Dynamics:
Opportunity:
The Internet of Things (IoT) refers to the networking of physical objects with the help of devices including sensors and actuators that can transmit information within a network. IoT in aviation offers numerous opportunities to improve operational efficiencies and automation in various aircraft operations. With IoT, multiple actuators with different functions can be compiled together to form a network where the connected actuators can communicate with each other to perform multiple tasks. Otherwise, it is not possible for each type of actuator individually.
As next-generation aircraft are IoT-enabled, big data analytics are expected to play an important role in aircraft design, manufacturing, and maintenance during the forecast period. Now, Pratt & Whitney (United Technologies Group) has deployed IoT technology in aircraft engines to improve efficiency. Nonetheless, IoT can be used in electrical devices (e.g. actuators) to easily communicate and move together. The IoT presents an opportunity to improve automation in flight control and landing gear systems applications in aviation. Hence, increasing application coverage of actuators in IoT for these applications is expected to boost the demand for actuators over the forecast period.
Challenge:
The aviation industry is marred by numerous bilateral, national and international regulations and standards that constrain the behavior of airports and aircraft operators. The International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) is tasked with establishing global standards for the commercial aviation sector to ensure the safe operation of aircraft and to control aircraft-related risks to acceptable levels.
The continued globalization and liberalization of the aviation business has put significant pressure on the airline industry to be commercially successful in an increasingly competitive environment. Nonetheless, a major focus of industry participants has been the development of advanced systems and components with reduced failure rates, lower material costs, and shorter R&D phases. Components and systems for aircraft are therefore subjected to rigorous quality inspections and rigorous testing to increase the level of safety. The increasing complexity of aircraft structures requires the use of electronic components, which makes delivery commitments difficult for aircraft OEMs. Moreover, with rapid technological advancements and new technologies and products replacing old ones every five to seven years, compliance with the regulatory environment is becoming a challenge for component and system manufacturers.
