Load Cell Market - Forecast (2020 - 2025)

The market for load cell looks promising due to several reasons such as increased use of load cells in mining activities, and logistics and metal industries; increase in production of heavy manufacturing/industrial machinery, and rapid industrialization across the globe. Load Cells are classified into various products such as single-point, dual-shear, shear-beam, and others. The Load Cell Market  is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 3.73% during the forecast period 2020–2025. APAC is forecast to be the fastest growing market with a CAGR of 5.87%, which can be mainly attributed to the adoption of the distributed ledger technology for controlling weights in tanks, hoppers, mills, vehicles, and so on.

Load Cell Market Outlook

Load cells are connected to various measuring devices for measuring purposes, and to display, record, control, and keep track of the loads. Applications are diverse varying from small sensors for use in electronic scales, bath scales, game consoles and home electronics to those for general industrial uses such as truck scales, measuring systems in production lines, and tank scales.

Load Cell Market Growth Drivers

Increasing demand for load cells from industries such as healthcare and oil & gas is driving the Load Cell market. Load cells are used in healthcare devices and equipment such as infusion pumps and surgical instruments, and also in a wide range of delicate fluid-monitoring applications including blood transfusions, kidney dialysis, and blood donation. In such applications, the load cells ensure that the amount of fluids entering, leaving, or being replaced in the body are started, stopped, or recirculated at the right time and in the proper dosage or ratios.

Load Cell Market Challenges

Meeting the required regulatory standards is a major challenge for the load cell market. The companies that manufacture load cells need to ensure that their devices really do perform as proposed. Most countries have a set of legal requirements that manufacturers have to follow. The regulations that are adopted by many countries outside the U.S. have as their basis a recommendation made by an intergovernmental organization called the International Organization of Legal Metrology.
