LVDT & RVDT MARKET OVERVIEW

The global lvdt & rvdt market size was USD 1.9 billion in 2024 and is projected to touch USD 3.45 billion by 2033, exhibiting a CAGR of 6.8% during the forecast period from 2025 To 2033.

LVDT & RVDT stands for linear variable differential transformers and rotary variable differential transformers. The linear variable differential transformer is an absolute position sensor and is non-contact. Absolute position sensors without touch are known as linear variable differential transformers (LVDT). They consist of a ferromagnetic core that may be attached to an extension rod and a transformer contained in a metal case. The transformer's spool tube, also known as the bore liner, glides the core inside. 

In the case of DC LVDTs, the signal conditioning electronics are also contained within the transformer, together with the coil assembly with primary and secondary windings. An electromechanical transducer known as a rotary variable differential transformer (RVDT) produces an irregular alternating draft (AC) result voltage that is linearly proportional to the angular removal of its intake stake. These are used to drive low costs and enhance the functionality of the transformer. The market for AC and DC LVDT and RVDT Differential Transformers is experiencing tremendous expansion in AI processing capabilities, autonomous vehicles poised to enter the mainstream, and better commercials.

COVID-19 IMPACT

Disturbance in Manufacturing and Supply of Product Retarded Growth

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with the LVDT & RVDT market experiencing higher-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden rise in CAGR is attributable to the market's growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over.

The effects of the pandemic were allegedly severe as it affected the economy on a global scale. The LVDT & RVDT market growth was reportedly influenced by the outbreak of COVID-19. The market witnessed a negative impact of the pandemic and the lockdown due to various restrictions in manufacturing and supply chains. The demand for the product decreased due to stringent regulations on the supply of the materials. The production of transformers and the supply of existing products were halted. 

LATEST TRENDS

Product Applications in Aerospace & Defense to Surge Growth

The use of LVDTs in aerospace is extensive and includes pilot control, nose wheel steering, engines, and flight controls. LVDTs can be used in primary or secondary flight control to obtain position feedback for the flap, slat, and spoiler mechanisms within the flight control actuation systems. It is crucial to make sure that all panels on aircraft with several slats or flaps operate in unison. Additionally, the LVDT sensors' position data support aids in the accurate implementation of pilot intakes to the management by directing flight control actuation systems. Additionally, the data is used to give the pilot feedback, and the flight computer is incorporated into other aircraft systems. Additionally, it is utilized to determine engine linkage locations or valve functionality areas.
