Motion Control Encoders Market size is estimated to cross USD 22 Billion by the end of 2035, witnessing around CAGR of 5% during the forecast period, i.e., 2023-2035. In the year 2022, the industry size of motion control encoders was USD 15 Billion. The growth of the market can be attributed to the growing number of satellites worldwide along with the surge in satellite communications. Motion control encoders determine the movement of satellites whether it’s clockwise or anti-clockwise. Additionally, it also transmits the signals associated with the direction, position, speed, and count of satellites. For instance, it was found that a total of 4,852 satellites circled the earth by the end of 2021. Hence, it is one of the major factors anticipated to propel the market growth during the forecast period.
Trends in the global motion control encoders market, such as the increased demand for motion control encoders in the commercial aerospace and defense industries, are anticipated to provide significant opportunities for key market participants to generate revenue over the course of the forecast period. Both of these industries require automated process machinery, thus the equipment they use uses motion controls. Motion conversion motion transforms the equipment's motion into electrical signals, which are then read by motion control systems. The United States exported aerospace components worth close to USD 90 billion as of 2021. Over the course of the projection period, all of these factors are anticipated to boost the market growth.
Growth Drivers
Rising Textile Industries to Boost the Demand for Motion Control Encoders - The demand for motion control encoders, as encoders provide critical feedback for speed, direction, and distance. The boom in the textile industry is expected to propel the demand for motion control encoders.

Type (Incremental Encoder, Absolute Encoder)
The global motion control encoders market is segmented and analyzed for demand and supply by type into the incremental encoder, and absolute encoder. Out of these segments, the absolute encoder segment is estimated to gain the largest market share over the projected time frame. The growth of the segment can be attributed to the growing sale of all products in the automotive sector including cars worldwide along with rising demand for motion control systems. For instance, it was observed that, globally, the automotive industry’s unit sales volume (including cars) reached around 78 million units in 2022. Absolute encoders are marketed as feedback devices to provide information associated with position, speed, and others. Absolute encoders are used mainly for the single revolution of the shaft. Such factors are expected to hike the growth of the segment during the forecast period.
Application (Automotive, Robotics, Food & Beverage, Textile, Consumer Electronics, Marine, Satellites)
The global motion control encoders market is also segmented and analyzed for demand and supply by application into automotive, robotics, food & beverage, textile, consumer electronics, marine industry, and satellites. The robotics segment is expected to garner a significant share among these segments. Motion control encoders are heavily used in robotics to pick, handle, and pack applications. These processes require measured force sensing and adjustment. For precise motion feedback and control, motion control encoders are heavily used in robotics. Robotics are used for several purposes such as rehabilitation, cleaning, nursing, sterilization, transportation, and others. It is estimated that every year nearly 300,000 robots are marketed while nearly 2 million industrial robots are functioning globally. Additionally, in 2021, approximately 500,000 new industrial robots were launched worldwide.
