Aircraft Actuators Market Size, Share, Growth Opportunities, Trends Analysis & Global Industry Forecast Report, 2023-2030
Aircraft Actuator Market size reached USD 7.9 billion in 2022 and is estimated to reach USD 13.8 billion in 2030 and the market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 7.2% from 2023-2030
Aircraft Actuator Market Overview
Aircraft actuators are a mechanism that transmits mechanical or rotary motion into linear motion with the help of gearing and control systems. The actuators are operated with different electric, hydraulic, pneumatic, and mechanical techniques for aircraft’s movement control. The aircraft actuators have reduction gear to control the rotating motion with a wide range of applications, including control & limit speed of the aircraft by adjusting levers & flaps. They can withstand ambient conditions such as solid heat, vibrations, and cold on the aircraft.

Major Aircraft Actuator Market Drivers
The factors driving the global aircraft actuator market include increasing investment by several governments towards developing military and defense aircraft for strengthening the country and rising demand for commercial aircraft across the globe due to the increasing number of passengers. For instance, according to the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI) Organization Report in 2019, the global military expenditure reached USD 1917 billion due to increased military demand for military aircraft and rising demand for homeland security in various countries.
Further, the rising sale of commercial aircraft due to the surge in the global aircraft passengers with rising tourism across the globe has propelled the aircraft actuator market growth. For instance, according to the International Air Transport Association, in 2020, there have been 960 new commercial aircraft scheduled for delivery, which slightly declined due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
Moreover, the rising trend towards adopting the electromechanical actuators (EMAs) for aircraft operations due to outstanding benefits such as reduced fuel burn, enhances system flexibility, reduces maintenance cost, and improves the management of isolation and fault detection is further propelling growth. Also, several leading players are adopting strategies such as mergers, acquisitions, and partnerships for developing new electromechanical actuators for aircraft that expected to strengthen the market growth. For instance, in 2019, Safran has completed the acquisition of electromechanical systems business of Collins Aerospace to help expand its product portfolio in the pilot control and actuators applications.
Restraint in the Aircraft Actuator Market
However, increasing concerns about leakages of oils and high noise problems from the hydraulic and pneumatic actuators may hamper the global aircraft actuator market. The installation of pneumatic and hydraulic actuators is also expansive. It requires high maintenance cost due to consists of various components such as air filters, dryers, fluid pump, electric pump, compressors, lube tubes, and regulators. These factors hamper the growth of the aircraft actuators market.

Type – Segment Analysis
Based on the type, the rotary is expected to grow at the fastest rate in the global aircraft actuator market during the forecast period owing to its capability of moving in at any angle required from 90, 180, or 360 degrees. Also, the rotary actuators are used to convert high-speed, low-torque rotary motion with the help of planetary gear train into low-speed, high-torque motion, which reduces maintenance issues. Rotary actuators are durable and provide high force for aircraft operations.
Technology – Segment Analysis
Based on the technology, pneumatic is projected to capture the largest market share over the forecast period in the global aircraft actuator market due to the low maintenance requirements and high durability compared to other actuator technology.
End-User – Segment Analysis
Based on the end-user, commercial aircraft holds the highest market share in 2020 in the global aircraft actuator market owing to rising demand for the low weight aircraft and surge in demand for fuel-efficient aircraft with a surge in the number of air passengers across the globe. For instance, according to the International Civil Aviation Organization, in 2019, the total number of air passengers rose to 4.5 Billion, and increased by 3.6% compared to 2018.
