Crawler camera inspection systems is gaining popularity across industry applications. Advancement in robotic crawler systems had provided the use of crawler cameras into various critical operation including radiographic inspection, automated ultrasonic testing. Many crawler camera inspection systems are available in a range of two and four wheel drive which are capable of operating in variety of pipes and other drainage systems. These systems are also capable of assessing wide range of pipe anomalies including corrosion, mechanical damage, and cracks. The concept of “smart” crawler has been gaining popularity among industrial end users. The companies are continuously taking effort to make more additions to their existing product line. For ex. Envirosight LLC had recently implemented a more reliable digital technology names CANbus (Controller Area Network bus) which was originally developed by engineers at Robert Bosch GmbH for automotive industry. CANbus enables the crawler to establish connection with all the component with each other for better communication. The introduction of such novel technologies has eliminated the hurdles associated with traditional modes of operation. Traditionally, the crawler camera system is controlled using multi-conductor cable in which individual wire has been allocated to specific functions. This multi-conductor cables makes the system heavy, fragile and costly to maintain. The camera segment was valued at $57.7 million in 2018, and is projected to reach $88.0 million by 2026, growing at a CAGR of 5.7% from 2019 to 2026. North America was the highest contributor to this market, with $43.3 million in 2018, and is anticipated to reach $62.4 million by 2026, registering a CAGR of 5.0% over the forecast period.
Premium prices of systems and associated accessories have decreased the adoption of pipeline inspection systems. End user from Asia region are largely focusing on procuring cost effect solution for waste management and sewage management activities due to limited expenditure by government authorities on repair and maintenance. Moreover, the manufacturer are main competing on the basis of product differentiation. Thus, these manufacturers are introducing novel products with high price which are further reduced overall adoption of crawler camera systems. The novel products are also equipped with various services such as software services, maintenance services which are a costlier affair for residential end user. The above factors are collective decreased the overall penetration of crawler camera systems.
