Metrology refers to the science of measurement and ensures the calibration of various equipment to deliver accurate results. It is the characterization of physical surface properties of the equipment such as roughness, flatness, dimensions, and curvature. Metrology systems use advanced technology to measure indefinite quantities and out of sight dimensions of various objects that are either difficult or impossible to measure physically.
Companies need to ensure precise measurements to comply with the industrial measurement standards. The International Bureau of Weights and Measures is a government organization that introduces measurement standards for several industries. It is mandatory for enterprises across various industries to follow these international measurement standards and hence, it is necessary for them to adopt the metrology systems. This is one of the major factors boosting the global metrology systems market. Additionally, inspection, measurement, and quality control in the manufacturing process of the companies are predicted to propel the global metrology systems market, as these processes would require the companies to adopt advance metrology systems.
The global metrology systems market can be segmented based on component, enterprise size, application, and region. In terms of component, the market can be divided into hardware, solution, and services. The solution segment can be segregated into on-premise and cloud-based. The cloud-based segment is anticipated to expand at a significant pace during the forecast period. Expansion of the segment can be attributed to the rise in adoption of cloud-based solutions among enterprises, as these solutions provide enhanced scalability and reliability.
The services segment can be bifurcated into managed services and professional services. The professional services sub-segment is expected to account for a major share of the services segment.
