Marché des gaines thermorétractables en Amérique du Nord – Tendances et prévisions de l’industrie jusqu’en 2030

Analyse et taille du marché des gaines thermorétractables en Amérique du Nord

L'augmentation de la capacité de production d'électricité à travers le monde stimule le marché nord-américain des gaines thermorétractables. Cependant, la modernisation des lignes de transmission et des sous-stations le long des corridors existants est un moyen rentable d'augmenter la capacité de transmission. Les lignes existantes peuvent être reconduites pour augmenter la capacité de transmission (en utilisant des matériaux tels que des conducteurs composites qui peuvent transporter des courants plus élevés). Ces matériaux sont actuellement disponibles mais ne sont pas largement utilisés car il est difficile de mettre les lignes hors service pour reconduire de nouveaux matériaux. De plus, lorsque les conditions météorologiques sont favorables, toutes les lignes aériennes peuvent transporter un courant supérieur à leur valeur nominale et une valeur nominale en temps réel qui pourrait être ajustée en permanence augmenterait la capacité disponible.

Market Definition

Heat shrink tubing is used to insulate wire providing abrasion resistance and environmental protection for the stranded solid wire conductors with connections, joints, and terminals in electrical work. In general, a tube with a lower shrink temperature will shrink faster. When heat shrink tubing is wrapped around wire arrays and electrical components, it collapses radially to fit the contours of the equipment, forming a protective layer.

Moreover, these tubings use various materials such as Perfluoroalkoxy alkanes (PFA), Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), Fluorinated Ethylene Propylene (FEP), and others, to manufacture heat shrink tubings. The heat shrink tubings with different materials have different protection features against abrasion, low impact, cuts, moisture, and dust by covering individual wires or encasing entire arrays. In addition, material is decided based on end usage such as electronics, automotive, aerospace, and others. Plastic manufacturers begin by extruding a thermoplastic tube to create heat-shrink tubing. Heat shrink tubing materials vary depending on the intended application.

 North America Heat Shrink Tubing Market Dynamics

This section deals with understanding the market drivers, opportunities, restraints, and challenges. All of this is discussed in detail as below:

Drivers

• Role of Government in Supporting and Expansion of Transmission & Distribution Systems in the Heat Shrink Tubing Market Across the Region

The role of electric power transmission and distribution (T&D) plays an important link between generating stations and customers. Growing loads and stress created by the aging equipment and increasing the risk of widespread blackouts are a few of the factors which help generates the need for heat shrink tubes. Electricity delivery that is both dependable and cost-effective is critical in today's society. The U.S. transmission and distribution (T&D) is comprised of numerous economic drivers, organizational structures, technologies, and forms of regulatory oversight. Federal and municipal governments and state and customer-owned cooperatives are all part of these systems. However, about 80 percent of power transactions occur on lines owned by investor-owned regulated utilities (IOUs). These fully integrated utilities own both the generating plants and the transmission and distribution systems that deliver their customers' power. This was among the dominant model in the past but deregulation in some states has transformed the industry. Transmission, generation, and distribution may be handled by different entities in deregulated areas.

• Increase in the Capacity for Power Generation Across the Globe 

A two-step process is used to create heat shrink tubing. The first step is standard extrusion followed by a secondary process that makes the tubing heat-shrinkable. Although this secondary process's specifics are kept confidential, heat and force are used to expand the tubing's diameter. While still expanded, the tubing is cooled to room temperature. If the tubing is rigid, it is going to shrink down to its original size. The up-gradation of transmission lines and substations along existing corridors is a cost-effective way to increase transmission capacity. Existing lines can be reconducted to increase transmission capacity (using materials such as composite conductors that can carry higher currents).

Opportunity

• Wide Adoption of Heat Shrink Tubes in Various Industries

AI The heat shrink tubing products are made from uniquely formulated materials that have been enhanced by radiation cross-linking, a technology with product design that provides a repeatable, reliable, and shrink-to-fit installation compatible with many manufacturing processes. These products are in service throughout the world in automotive, telecommunications, power distribution, aerospace, defense, industrial and commercial applications. The tubing application in under bonnet cable protection, hoses, brake pipes, air conditioning, diesel injection clusters, connectors, inline splice, wire bundles, ring terminals, seat belt stalks, gas springs, antennas, and others are further enhancing the application capabilities in the automobile industry. The tubing products are made from uniquely formulated materials that have been enhanced by radiation cross-linking, a technology. The easy-to-use products provide cost-effective, proven solutions in various automotive applications, from sealing and protecting electrical splices to providing mechanical protection for fluid management systems in harsh surroundings.

Restraints/Challenges

• Government Regulation On the Emission of Toxic Gases

The environmental significance of rapid industrialization has brought about uncountable air, land, and water resource sites being contaminated with toxic materials and other pollutants, threatening humans and ecosystems with serious health risks. More extensive and intensive use of materials and energy has created cumulative pressures on the quality of local, regional, and North America ecosystems. Before there was a concerted effort to restrict the impact of pollution, environmental management extended little beyond laissez-faire tolerance, tempered by the disposal of wastes to avoid disruptive local nuisance conceived of in a short-term perspective. The need for remediation was recognized by exception in instances where damage was determined to be unacceptable. As the pace of industrial activity intensified and the understanding of cumulative effects grew, a pollution control paradigm became the dominant method of environmental management.

• Rising Prices of Raw Materials for Tubing

The price fluctuations affect the cable, wire, and connectivity products and materials being purchased or affect the outlook on budget projections in procurement, finance, supply chain management, or product development. Thanks to rising industrial production and aggressive sustainable energy initiatives, China is the world's largest consumer of copper. Europe, the U.S., and China pursue aggressive renewable energy initiatives to sustain greener economies and copper's high thermal and electric conductivity will help them get there. The largest copper-producing countries such as Chile, Peru, China, and the United States are struggling to meet the high demand for countries to meet their green economic initiative, contributing to the price of copper skyrocketing. There is also speculation that as the U.S. dollar weakens against other North America currencies, there will be more opportunities for users of other currencies to increase their purchasing power with copper and other commodities.
