Industry Analysis & Industry Trends
Moving along
The improved economy will stimulate industrial activity, in turn, spurring demand for actuators. In particular, key markets like aerospace and machinery manufacturing will pick up in light of renewed conditions, resulting in moderate revenue growth. Because of the relatively weak dollar, industry exports continue to perform strongly. For example, China, Mexico and Brazil represent newly industrialized countries with booming industrial sectors that create substantial demand for related machinery. Therefore, growth will remain stable in the next five years.

Industry Report - Starting a New Business Chapter
The Actuator Manufacturing industry exhibits medium barriers to entry. The competition that potential entrants face when producing actuators and fluid cylinders depends on the type of product to be produced and the market to which it will be targeted. In general, the largest actuator manufacturers produce a range of products for varied downstream industries, making competition on a mass scale more difficult. Some entrants may find success in targeting niche markets with an application-specific product.
Another potential barrier lies in the need to hire qualified workers. Actuators are highly engineered pieces of equipment. They are often produced with demanding specifications that push the limits of torque on the materials used. Eng... purchase to read more
