Global Non-Destructive Testing Services in Aerospace and Defense Market Overview
The global non-destructive testing services in aerospace and defense market is estimated to reach $1,817.2 million in 2033 from $1,294.9 million in 2022, at a CAGR of 3.34% during the forecast period 2023-2033. The non-destructive testing services providers have witnessed the demand from space agencies, defense, and growing commercial industry.
Market Lifecycle Stage
The non-destructive testing (NDT) has been critical in the aerospace and defense industry and is currently at a mature stage, having consistent and stable demand.The use of NDT in the aerospace and defense industry has a history that starts from Second World War and has a significant role in conducting the Second World War.
Visual testing was used to a great extent to determine the surface anomalies to detect surface imperfections.
Additionally, in recent years, non-destructive testing has included various methods such as ultrasonic testing, eddy current testing, magnetic particle inspection, radiographic inspection, and others. These testing methods are being used to detect surface, sub-surface, and internal defects in components used in the aerospace and defense industry.
Furthermore, the NDT market has opportunities for more growth due to technological advancements such as artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) for higher accuracy and efficient inspection.Additionally, the requirement for aircraft maintenance and inspections to maintain high quality and safety standards is driving the demand for NDT services growth.
The space industry is also experiencing significant growth with a rise in activities such as the large deployment of satellite constellations, which needs NDT services to qualify space-grade components.
Some of the major players with a global presence providing NDT services in the aerospace and defense industry are Zetec, Inc., Acuren, MISTRAS Group, Waygate Technologies, and FORCE Technology.
Impact
The global non-destructive testing services in aerospace and defense market is observing demand from end users such as the aviation and defense industry.The space industry is also growing, which will experience significant demand during the forecast period 2023-2033.
The major challenge faced in the non-destructive testing market is the increasing size of components that impose difficulty on the majority of the NDT equipment available in the market.
Furthermore, in the upcoming years, the deployment of satellite constellations, along with other rising space activities, will witness an increase in demand for NDT.The space and aviation industry is using advanced materials such as composites for the manufacturing of the components that require advanced NDT.
Thus, advanced NDT methods such as computed tomography are being used for the inspections. Additionally, the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) in the NDT further increases the testing speed and quality.
