Non-metal sensors are devices designed to measure inclination or tilt angles without relying on metal-based components. Unlike traditional sensors that use metal elements, non-metal sensors utilize alternative materials such as ceramics, polymers, or semiconductors to detect changes in orientation. This design allows them to be resistant to corrosion and unaffected by magnetic fields, making them suitable for applications where metal interference or degradation is a concern. Therefore, the USA market consumed 1,879.5 thousand units of Non-metal sensors in 2022.
The US market dominated the North America Tilt Sensors Market by Country in 2022, and would continue to be a dominant market till 2030; thereby, achieving a market value of $86,072 Thousands by 2030. The Canada market is experiencing a CAGR of 10.3% during (2023 - 2030). Additionally, The Mexico market would exhibit a CAGR of 9.3% during (2023 - 2030).
In manufacturing, robotics, and aerospace industries, precise control and accurate measurement of tilt angles are essential for maintaining operational efficiency and quality. These sensors enable precise positioning, alignment, and orientation of equipment and systems, ensuring optimal performance and productivity. For example, in CNC machines, these sensors facilitate accurate tool positioning and alignment, resulting in precise machining operations and high-quality finished products.
With the increasing adoption of automation and robotics across industries, these sensors play a crucial role in robotic arms, drones, and autonomous vehicles for navigation, obstacle avoidance, and stabilization. These sensors provide real-time feedback on orientation changes, allowing robots to navigate complex environments, manipulate objects, and perform tasks precisely and accurately.
The growing mining industry in Mexico stimulates technological advancements in equipment and technology, including sensor technology. As per the data from the International Trade Administration (ITA), the value of Mexico’s mining industry in 2022 was USD 3.3 billion. Precious metal extraction accounts for around half of Mexico’s mining output; non-ferrous, metallurgical, and non-metallic ores comprise 40%, 6%, and 7% of the total. In 2022, mining production reached USD 16.16 billion. Similarly, the expansion of the aerospace industry in Canada drives the demand. According to the ITA, Canada’s aircraft sector generated about C$27 billion (around US$20.8 billion) in GDP in 2022. Canada has 5% of worldwide sales in aerospace. The Canadian aerospace manufacturing industry exported close to C$18.7 billion (approximately US$14.4 billion) and actively participated in global supply chains in 2022. In conclusion, the increasing mining sector and expansion of the aerospace industry are driving the market’s growth.
