Piezoelectric Accelerometer Market Analysis

Form (Piezoelectric Charge (PE) Accelerometers, Integrated Electronics Piezo-Electric (IEPE) Accelerometers)

The piezoelectric charge (PE) accelerometers segment in the piezoelectric accelerometer market is projected to gather the highest revenue share of about 60% over the forecast period. The most popular type of accelerometers for use in testing and measurement applications are piezoelectric (PE) models. These devices come in a variety of sizes, forms, weights, and sensitivities, and they have a very broad measurement frequency range. There are PE accelerometers that may produce voltage or charge (IEPE). They are suitable for vibration and shock measurements. Furthermore, since piezoresistive (PR) accelerometers often have limited sensitivity, they are more suited for measuring vibration than shock. They are also often utilized in crash tests for transportation. PR accelerometers can monitor long-duration transients as they typically have a wide bandwidth and a frequency response that drops to 0 Hz (commonly referred to as "DC responding") or steady state.

End Use (Aerospace & Defense, Automotive, Pharmaceuticals & Chemicals, Semiconductor & Electronics, Energy/Power, General Industrials)

The aerospace & defense segment in the piezoelectric accelerometer market is poised to generate the largest revenue share of over 30% over the coming years. The major factor to influence the growth of this segment is the rising demand for aircraft. For instance, notwithstanding the coronavirus pandemic, over 25,577 aircraft were expected to be in service globally in 2022. The majority of turbulence that aircraft encounter is mild, which causes unpredictable shifts in attitude or height. For small aircraft, moderate turbulence may appear as severe turbulence. When turbulent conditions are encountered by the airplane, passengers experience discomfort. As a result, the aircraft is equipped with piezoelectric accelerometers to identify turbulence. It recognizes when the aircraft suddenly loses height or attitude. Furthermore, the wing flaps may be instantly adjusted in a split second by sending correction signals. As a result, OEMs of aircraft are going to encourage the use of piezoelectric accelerometers due to concerns about lessening the effects of turbulence. This will ultimately lead to a rise in demand for the product throughout the projected timeframe.
