Total Dimensional Metrology Market in the Automotive Industry: Key Conclusions and Future Outlook, Global, 2013
Parameters Current Future Geographic • APAC is the region with the most companies exploring opportunities to
sell more units. • With rapid proliferation of low-cost equipment in APAC, more
marketing initiatives are needed to sell more equipment.
• For price-sensitive end users in APAC, leading companies such as Hexagon Metrology, Carl Zeiss, and Mitutoyo are expected to work with automotive component manufacturers to include more cost-effective inline metrology solutions products to their portfolios.
• The presence of numerable target market companies is likely to increase interest from small and medium sized dimensional metrology companies in entering the APAC market with a direct presence; resellers will also be influenced. In turn, future competition will likely increase.
Competition • For end users in developed countries, companies are looking forward to manufacturing high-accuracy and application-specific machines.
• As the need for enhanced safety, quality, and improved productivity grows in the automotive industry, particularly in the developed economies, metrology vendors’ biggest challenge will not come from industry peers, but from meeting the insatiable needs of the automotive industry.
• Building niche products for key application areas such as powertrain and sheet metal is likely to increase unique selling propositions and profit margins.
• The market is likely to witness more consolidation, particularly in the inline metrology segment.
• Large industrial automation companies are likely to foray into the dimensional metrology market by acquiring dimensional metrology vendors.
Technology • Interest in automating inspection activity is likely to increase inline metrology solutions. In-line metrology will note increased penetration.
• Another such solution is the X-ray-based products that will gain prominence, which are actively being marketed by Carl Zeiss, Nikon Metrology, and WENZEL Präzision GmbH (WENZEL) for automotive end users.
• Advanced fully-automated inline metrology systems will power the next-generation dimensional metrology solutions.
• Priority on improvising existing inline metrology products and software packages will be the key demand.
Growth Opportunities
• Declining profit in hardware sales has pressured dimensional metrology vendors to pursue business opportunities in value-added services such as metrology labs, retrofits, and software.
• Customized software packages and cloud computing services are likely to become the most profitable business opportunities for dimensional metrology vendors.

New Business Models
Next-generation business models will
redefine future business propositions and
influence future technology and product
development. These business models
will not only reshape the landscape of the
business environment, but they will also
influence industry dynamics. An example
of a new business model is Value for
Many.
Implications
• Increasing demand for cost-effective metrology
services will streamline revenues of several metrology
vendors.
• Client retention and a wider target market is likely to
reduce the impact of fluctuating growth restraints for
metrology market participants.
• The market experiences a “Value Based from Product
Based” transition.
• Case Studies: Carl Zeiss Metrology Labs,
Renishaw’s acquisition of ACE
Innovating to Zero
Globally, emissions and greenhouse
gas regulations become more
stringent each year, and the trend is
expected to continue. Additionally,
alternate fuel and hybrid/electric
vehicle technology is also expected to
be favoured by legislations.
• Zero emissions, zero accidents, zero fatalities, zero
defects, and zero breaches of security can be a reality
in the future. This implies zero distraction for drivers.
• CMMs with optical scanners, inline metrology, and
CT* metrology are areas that deliver high client value
as dimensional metrology manufacturers aim towards
helping clients achieve zero defects.

Smart is the New Green
Green products and services
will be increasingly replaced
by smart products and
services with intelligent
sensing technology and
Internet connectivity, driving
better optimisation.
• The need for smarter solutions and energy-efficient living
will drive and foster clusters of smart communities called
smart factories. Smart factories will be measured on the
level of intelligence and integration of production,
assembling, quality inspection, and packaging.
• Quality inspection systems and reports generated using
software will be integrated with servers using cloud
computing.
