SCR功率控制器市場 - 2023-2028年預測SCR Power Controller Market - Forecasts from 2023 to 2028 |
SCR功率控制器,通常稱為可控矽整流器(SCR)或SCR功率調節器,用於大多數製造過程中所需的溫度調節過程,例如加熱、熔化、乾燥和成型材料。加熱器的 SCR 功率控制器控制柵極和加熱器之間的電流,有助於調節溫度以滿足不同製造流程的需求。 SCR 功率控制器市場可按類型、負載、最終用戶和地區進行細分。市場成長的主要促進因素是對能源效率的日益關注和中小型工業的提振。
如今,政府法規和公眾對節能和效率的期望非常強調工業過程中對能源效率的需求。金屬和天然氣等行業對數位加熱控制系統的需求也不斷成長。這些推動了全球對 SCR 功率控制器的需求,促進了 SCR 功率控制器行業的成長。
SCR 功率控制器還具有靈活性、準確性以及長期成本效率等特性。這些功能也推動了中小型工業企業對該產品的需求。隨著新興國家工業化程度的不斷提高以及SCR功率控制器的用途廣泛,預計對SCR功率控制器的需求將大幅增加。此外,製造業中擴大使用緊湊型加熱系統預計也將進一步推動 SCR 功率控制器市場的成長。
由於這些舉措,SCR 功率控制器市場的主要企業在過去幾年中增加了收入。例如,Schneider Electric能源管理部門2021年至2022年收入成長超過12.5%。2022年部門總收入約為 264.42 億歐元。
該行業面臨的關鍵課題與缺乏操作和維護 SCR 功率控制器所需的技術專業知識有關,這阻礙了行業成長並對需求產生負面影響。對SCR功率控制器的維護不當或不定期會阻礙SCR功率控制器的使用和壽命,導致工業設施因故障而造成損失。因此,缺乏技術知識是該市場投資的障礙。
此外,限制SCR功率控制器市場成長的另一個要素是SCR功率控制器替代產品的可用性,例如繼電器和基於IGBT的控制器。這些產品作為替代品的可用性威脅著 SCR 功率控制器的需求並限制了市場成長。
預計亞太地區將在 SCR 功率控制器市場中佔據很大佔有率,並且在預測期內將繼續保持這一趨勢。這一市場佔有率歸因於該地區主要經濟體(如中國、日本和印度)工業和製造業活動的成長。隨著該地區工業活動的增加,對用於溫度調節的 SCR 功率控制器的需求也會增加。這些國家的中小型工業單位也在增加,推動了該地區的市場成長。
在印度,中央和邦政府也將資源集中在電力控制器的開發和進步上。例如,Vedanta Resources Ltd 已與邦政府簽署協議,在印度開發半導體製造設施、組裝和測試設備以及顯示器製造設施。
北美和歐洲市場預計也將出現強勁成長。在這些地區,成熟工業單位的存在、不斷發展的工業以及對節能和效率的關注將有助於對 SCR 功率控制器的需求不斷成長。
SCR power controllers, often called silicon-controlled rectifiers (SCRs) or SCR power regulators, are used in the temperature regulation process required in most manufacturing processes for heating, melting, drying, and forming of materials. SCR power controllers for heaters help to control the electrical flow between the grid and the heater and regulate the temperature as per the needs of different manufacturing processes. The SCR power controller market can be classified in the following ways: by type, load, end-user, and geographic region. The major drivers for the growth of this market include an increased focus on energy efficiency and a boost from small and medium-sized industries.
There is a strong emphasis on the need for energy efficiency in industrial processes in recent times owing to governmental regulations and public expectations regarding energy conservation and efficiency. In addition, there is also a rising demand for the digitization of heating control systems in industries such as metal and gas. These are some of the factors driving the demand for SCR power controllers globally and resulting in the growth of the SCR power controller industry.
SCR power controllers also offer cost efficiency in the long term, along with features such as flexibility and accuracy. These characteristics also drive the demand for this product in small and medium-sized industrial operations. With rising industrialization in developing countries and because of multiple SCR power controller applications, the demand for SCR power controllers is expected to increase significantly. The increase in the usage of compact heating systems in the manufacturing sector is also expected to drive the SCR power controller market growth further.
Key SCR power controller market businesses have seen an increase in income over the past few years due to such efforts. For instance, according to their yearly reports, the energy management segment of Schneider Electric had an increase in revenue of over 12.5% from 2021 to 2022. It produced total segment revenues of roughly €26,442 million in 2022.
A significant challenge this industry faces relates to the lack of technical expertise required for operating and maintaining SCR power controllers, which hinders the industry's growth and negatively impacts the demand. Improper or irregular SCR power controller maintenance can harm their usage and longevity and result in losses for the industrial unit due to malfunction. Thus, this is a barrier to investment in this market due to a lack of technical know-how.
Further, another restraint to the growth of this market relates to the availability of alternatives for SCR power controllers, such as relays and IGBT-based controllers. The availability of these products as alternatives threaten the demand for SCR power controllers and restricts the market's growth.
The Asia-Pacific region is anticipated to constitute a significant share of the SCR power controller market, and similar trends are expected to be followed in the forecast period. This market share is owed to the growth in industrial and manufacturing activities in the region's major economies, such as China, Japan, and India. As industrial operations increase in this region, the demand for SCR power controllers for temperature regulation will also increase. The emergence of more small and medium-sized industrial units in these countries will also drive market growth in this region.
In India, central and state governments are focusing resources on the development and advancement of power controllers too. For instance, Vedanta Resources Ltd signed an agreement with a state government to develop a semiconductor manufacturing facility, an assembling and testing unit, and a display fabrication facility in India.
It is believed that the North American and European markets will experience steady growth too. The presence of established industrial units, growing industries, and the focus on energy conservation and efficiency will help increase the demand for SCR power controllers in these regions.
