Ann Arbor, Michigan – Total sales of
machine vision components and systems grew over nine percent in 2013,
more than double the initially forecasted growth according to new
statistics issued by AIA, the industry’s trade group.
Total machine vision sales include
sales of machine vision systems and components. Last year’s surge
in growth is largely due to an increase in sales of machine vision
systems, which is comprised of application specific machine vision systems (ASMV) and smart cameras. Machine vision system grew 11% in
2013.
While sales of machine vision systems
were up, sales of machine vision components remained flat in 2013.
Standout component categories in 2013 were imaging boards, optics,
and lighting, all of which posted growth over 2012.
“It is great to see the machine
vision market in North America grow in 2013 after experiencing a
contraction in 2012,” said AIA President Jeff Burnstein. “We hope
to see continued growth in 2014 as the North American economy remains
relatively strong.”
In addition to its sales tracking
report, AIA currently offers its 2013 Machine Vision Camera Market
Study, which is available at a discounted rate to AIA members. AIA
also prepares studies on special topics, such as its upcoming market
opportunity study on Life Sciences, which it makes available to all
AIA members free of charge on Vision Online.
