Rodless Actuators Market by Type (Screw Actuators (Lead Screw, Ball Screw and Others) and Belt-driven Actuators) by End Use (Manufacturing, Power and Energy, Electrical and Electronics and Others) Regional Outlook (North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, LAMEA): Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2019–2026

Global Rodless Actuators Market Overview 2026

Rodless actuators are linear devices or the equipment that use pressurized fluids to move or shift within power transfer operation or procedures. Rodless actuators are designed to provide power and motion while supporting a load. Rodless actuators are the most popular choices where longer distances of travel are required. Basically, rodless actuators guide and support the load throughout the stroke length. Rodless actuators are used to calculate loads precisely, consider the effect and inertia of the load, and consider the configuration and power output of the drive system. A rodless actuator moves in all directions, helps to eliminate the need to compensate the piston area, and helps to transport loads for longer durations and distances with less deflection.

Driving Factors: Increase in the adoption is predicted to drive the rodless actuators market

The rise in the adoption of actuators is predicted to drive the rodless actuators market. Rodless actuators are witnessed to grow as they are compact and allow for a longer stroke with single direction with a conventional cylinder. Rodless actuators have the ability to deliver the same stroke with almost half of the space and time that of the rod type cylinder. In addition, technological advancements in actuators and increasing investment to carry out the process of automation are predicted to boost the market in the forecast period.

The requirement for carrying the load capacity is very less which is considered to be the major restraint for the market

Rodless actuators are mainly used for the movement of tools or components. The main problem comes when these actuators are used for longer stokes being unsupported, and hence it is necessary to have a guiding machinery to complete the task, which creates the company or the organization to invest on other machinery to support the rodless actuators. If the guiding machinery is not fixed, then there are high chances of manufacturing the defective items or products. For instance, during packing if the guiding machinery is not fixed then there are high chances of getting poor sealing performance and leakage in the products.

Rodless Actuators Market Segmentations, by Type:

Rodless belt actuators type is the most lucrative by 2026

The rodless belt actuators type is predicted to have to maximum share in the rodless actuators market in the forecast period. The belt drive translates the rotatory motion to the linear movement connected within the two circular pulleys which are mostly preferred for long travel distances with the most cost-effective way as compared to other types. The rodless screw actuators are also predicted to grow considerably in the forecast period. The rodless screw actuators are fully enclosed units with balls or lead which make the items move faster with higher load capacity. Due to the speed and the load capacity the rodless screw actuators are predicted to give boost to the market in the forecast period. The rodless screw actuators are further bifurcated into lead screw, ball screw and others.

Rodless Actuators Market, by End Use:

Manufacturing is predicted to give boost to the overall market

Manufacturing is predicted to grow immensely in the estimated period. The versatile and reliable nature of rodless actuators makes them highly compatible with the new and altering manufacturing technologies. In addition, due to high suitable stroke application, rodless actuators are fully protected from piston binding, bending and uneven seal wear. These advantages are predicted to boost the rodless actuators market for the manufacturer in the forecast period.

Rodless Actuators Market, by Region:

Asia-Pacific possesses great investment opportunities for the investors to witness the most promising growth in the coming years

Asia-Pacific market for the rodless actuators is predicted to grow at a faster rate in the forecast period. The market in the region is predicted to have significant growth rate due to the rise in the development of the advanced technology at a better price and the availability affordable raw material. In addition, increase in the adoption of robot and automation in industrial segment is predicted to drive the rodless actuators market in the Asia-Pacific in the forecast period.
