Market Definition
The brake pad wear sensor accurately informs the driver about the current wear of the vehicle brake pad. The brake sensor is normally a wire encapsulated by a plastic compound. Once the compound wears down to the minimum wear level on the brake pads, the metal wire makes contact with the metal brake rotor, creating a light to display on the car dash.
Brake Sensors Market Dynamics
- Rapid Urbanization Across the Globe
Technological development across the globe has influenced the brake sensor market to an extent. The surge in the sales and production of commercial vehicles and off-highway trucks and the integration of the system in heavy and commercial vehicles to apply more massive brake efforts accelerate the market growth. The use of air brake systems in wider parking and service brakes applications and increased railways and high-speed trains further influence the market.
- Growing Demand for IoT and Connected Devices
IoT applications rely heavily on sensors to gather data from the physical world and enable connectivity between devices and systems. Furthermore, IoT devices are now being adopted across various industries for real-time monitoring and data collection; hence, the demand for sensors is expected to rise significantly. Sensors are critical in enabling real-time monitoring, data collection, and automation in IoT applications, creating ample opportunities for sensor manufacturers and suppliers.
Opportunities
- Rising awareness about the safety of the vehicle
In a moving vehicle, once the brake pedal is pressed, the pressure is applied to the frictional components near the wheels, which then press against each other to stop the vehicle. Air compressor brake sensors resolve this traditional issue by offering air by offering special fluid to deliver pressure to the braking components. Hence, this braking system reduces the chance of brake failure by avoiding leaks.In addition, the use of air brake systems is being made mandatory under many governmental regulations across the region for vehicles exceeding a certain size or carrying passengers for commercial purposes.
Restraint/Challenge
- Expensive and Excessive Air Leakage Rate
Cost parameter is a significant factor for large vehicles including heavy duty trucks, semi-trailer, and buses, where air brake systems lose out to traditional brake systems. Excessive air leakage rate is another concern for the air brake system. Air system loses pressure at a high rate, which lends importance to the rate at which the system builds pressure. A reservoir that loses pressure too quickly not only puts strains on the compressor at the same time it can also leave without adequate stopping power when it requires the most power.
- High Cost of Sensor Technology
Sensors are sensitive pieces of technology that do fail over time and can be quite expensive to develop and manufacturing advanced sensors often involves complex processes, sophisticated materials, and advanced technologies, which can drive up production costs. This high cost can limit the affordability and accessibility of sensors, particularly for price-sensitive industries or emerging markets. The cost factor can be a barrier to adoption, further furtherhindering the widespread implementation of sensors in vehicles.
