The World Market for Stepper Systems - 2009 Edition

Abstract

Description

"The Stepper Systems market has benefitted from recent performance improvements and is increasingly targeting new applications that were previously the domain of servo systems. Although the market is expected to witness a small contraction in 2009, the positive performance of key industry sectors, such as medical & scientific equipment, is expected to mitigate the damage and the market is forecast to return to positive growth rates in 2010, when an economic recovery is predicted."

This is only one of the findings reported in the 2009 edition of the World Market for Stepper Systems. The study presents the stepper systems market in industrial applications in terms of revenues, unit shipments and average selling prices. The study uses 2008 as the base year, and forecasts that incorporate the latest economic developments are provided for the period 2009 to 2013. In addition to presenting market size estimates, the report also examines the relevant trends affecting the stepper systems market, analyzes the competitive environment, and provides market shares of leading stepper systems suppliers on a worldwide level.

This report presents data for all five stepper products: hybrid stepper motors, tin-can stepper motors, variable reluctance motors, integrated stepper motors, and stepper drives. In addition, the study features exceptional granularity by illustrating breakdowns of the stepper systems market in terms of product type and geographic region. Various technical segmentations are also presented for both stepper motors and stepper drives. The report also presents data for 16 industry sectors, including electronics & electronics assembly, medical & scientific equipment, semiconductors, packaging, printing, material handling, textiles, and many others. A company directory and a product matrix are also included to provide a complete picture of the world market for stepper systems.
