X-ray Inspection System Market Outlook – 2027
An X-ray inspection is a non-destructive inspection process that uses radiography and is primarily used for detection of CUI (corrosion under insulation). These inspection techniques cover a wide range of sectors from inspection of cracks in materials to detection of external matter into materials, such as automotive, food, and pharmaceuticals.
Increased use of minute goods and their integration in the electronics industry involves quality inspection with the help of X-ray inspection systems, which can locate hidden defects. The scan can reveal variations in density caused by corrosion, welds, wet insulation, blockages, and other density changes with no need for costly insulation removal.
The global X-ray inspection system market is segmented on the basis of imaging technique, dimension, industry vertical, and region. Based on imaging technique, the X-ray inspection system market is bifurcated into film-based imaging and digital imaging. The digital imaging segment is further divided into computed tomography, computed radiography, and direct radiography.
In terms of dimension, the market is categorized into 2D and 3D. On the basis of industry vertical, the market is divided into manufacturing, oil & gas, aerospace, automotive, government infrastructure, power generation, food & pharmaceuticals, and others. Geographically, the market is analyzed across several regions such as North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and Latin America, Middle East & Africa (LAMEA).
Top Impacting Factors
The global X-ray inspection systems experienced a rapid growth in recent years. Growth is driven by adoption of technology in the food and pharmaceutical industry, driving the market is the aviation sector and the demand for technologically advanced systems. Increasing customer awareness raising the bar on safety and quality standards acts as a driver of X-ray inspection system market growth.
The risk of exposure to radiation and high device costs serve as a constraint for the overall demand for X-ray inspection systems. While the X-ray inspection systems offer an assured return on investment for the reliability of complex equipment, the cost of installation of these systems for certain minors in the industry is actually beyond limit. The end users perceive it as a burden on the company's investments and thus prefer inspection services from third parties.
3D X-ray Inspection System Market to Grow at the Highest CAGR during the Forecast Period
The market for 3D X-ray inspection systems is projected to grow at a higher CAGR during the forecast period. The growth of the X-ray inspection system market can be attributed to the use in a wide range of industries of 3D X-ray inspection systems, from semiconductors to automotive manufacturing, and their vital role in quality control. These systems also enable manufacturers to diagnose problems such as metal bridges, foreign materials and building defects in 3D planes.
The Oil and Gas Industry Holds the Largest Share of the Market
The oil and gas industry holds a prominent share of the market for X-ray inspection systems. X-ray inspection systems in both downstream and upstream portions of oil and gas fields are commonly used. X-ray inspection systems are highly efficient in providing solutions for inspection of pressure vessels, pipes, boilers, and valves, which, in turn, drives growth of the market.
Asia-Pacific to Grow at the Highest CAGR during the Forecast Period
The demand for X-ray inspection system market in Asia-Pacific is projected to rise at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. This growth is due to continued demand from oil and gas for fast-processing and cost-effective X-ray inspection systems, and vertical power generation.
