Abstract
The market for linear and torque motors continued to experience growth levels
far exceeding that of general industry during 2007 reaching a global value of
$1,023.4 million by the end of the year. This represents a $360million (54%)
increase in value since the last time IMS Research measured this market in
2004 despite the recent slowdown in the global semiconductor and flat panel
machinery sectors. This regional study provides detailed analysis of the size
and growth of the market in this region, and places it in context with that of
the global market. The study also highlights the trends and characteristics
that currently impact the growth of the linear and torque motor market within
Asia Pacific and Japan.
The report provides market size estimates and forecasts to 2011 for linear
motor components, modules and systems, and torque motor components, modules,
and systems, and shows market segmentation by product design, product size,
industry, accuracy, speed, and geographic region.
An analysis of the competitive environment is also provided, which includes
market shares for 2005, as well as a matrix of over 80 companies active in the
market.
IMS' aim in writing this report is to provide marketing and technical
executives with an up-to-date comprehensive description of the market for
these products and to identify the trends that will affect this market over
the next five years.
