Global X-Ray Inspection Systems Market Size, Share, Opportunities, COVID-19 Impact, And Trends By Type (2D X-Ray Inspection System, 3D X-Ray Inspection System), By Industry Vertical (Automotive, Defense, Medical Device, Manufacturing, Food, Others), And By Geography - Forecasts From 2023 To 2028

The global X-ray inspection systems market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 7.74% from US$629.735 million in 2021 to US$1,061.250 million by 2028.

The main function of an X-ray inspection, a non-destructive inspection procedure that employs radiography, is to find corrosion under insulation. These inspection methods can be used in various industries, including the automotive, pharmaceutical, and food industries, as well as for inspecting material defects and finding small substances embedded in materials. The market is primarily driven by the growing consumer awareness of the importance of examining the aerospace industry's quality standards. The market is also anticipated to expand due to the rising use of X-ray inspection devices in the manufacturing industry to find welding flaws, missing, cracked, or broken parts, as well as concerns with orientation, misalignment, and the presence or absence of particular features and component thicknesses.

Further, the market is anticipated to expand at a faster Pace. The use of 3D X-ray inspection systems in various industries, from semiconductor production to automotive manufacturing, and their crucial function in quality control are contributing to the X-ray inspection system market growth. These methods allow producers to identify issues like metal bridges, foreign objects, and structural flaws in 3D planes. Additionally, increasing adoption in food & beverage and other industries is expected to increase the market for X-Ray inspection systems in the Asia Pacific region. However, the high expense of X-Ray inspection systems is restraining the market growth.

Technological advancements and rising adoption from the food & beverages industry drive the global X-ray inspection systems market.

Technical advances in X-ray inspection systems are projected to drive the market. X-ray inspection systems are becoming more precise, effective, and user-friendly because of the introduction of novel and cutting-edge technologies, including high-resolution images, 3D imaging, and quicker scanning periods. As a result, they are being more widely used in various sectors, including the automotive and manufacturing industries. In addition, the capability of 2D X-ray inspection technology has significantly increased during the past ten years. Advanced 2D X-ray inspection systems currently available have X-ray sources that are incredibly sharp and strong, with submicron feature detection down to 0.1 microns or 100 nanometers. These scientific advancements have aided in creating new X-ray tubes that can improve accuracy and streamline procedures across a wide range of applications. In addition, the emergence of micro-electromechanical systems and micro opto electromechanical systems, as well as the trend towards smaller electronic components, contributed to the creation of an X-ray inspection system.

Market Developments:

• The VT-X750-V3 system from OMRON Corporation, regarded as the quickest CT-type X-ray inspection device, was released in November 2021. The VT-X750-V3 provides an advanced, real 3-D examination of electronic substrates.
• The Nordson Corporation's Nordson TEST & INSPECTION division introduced its OEM product line for pre-clinical & industrial X-ray imaging systems in September 2021.

Based on the industry vertical, the global X-ray inspection systems market is expected to witness positive growth in the food segment.

Brand protection is a critical issue in the food industry, as it helps to maintain the quality and authenticity of products and prevent counterfeiting, fraud, and food safety issues. As a result, food companies are increasingly investing in technologies such as X-ray inspection systems to ensure the safety and quality of their products and protect their brand reputation. X-ray inspection systems are advanced machines that use X-rays to detect and inspect foreign objects, contaminants, and defects in food products. For instance, in 2020, Mettler-Toledo, a global supplier of precision instruments and services, launched its X34 X-ray inspection system for packaged products. The system uses advanced algorithms and machine learning to detect and remove contaminants and defects from food products, ensuring the highest levels of safety and quality.

Another element that has been the subject of numerous published research papers is the advancement of better technologies for image enhancement. For instance, a research article published in April 2020 on developing a high-resolution X-ray inspection system utilizing a carbon nanotube-based miniature X-ray tube offered a novel idea for non-destructive testing equipment using a carbon nanotube-based miniature X-ray tube. The tool can be used to inspect items inside on a small scale. The inspection of devices would rise with such innovation.

North America accounted for a major share of the global X-ray inspection systems market.

The global X-ray inspection systems market has been segmented by geography into North America, South America, Europe, the Middle East and Africa, and the Asia Pacific.

The increasing demand for food safety and quality control drives the North American X-ray inspection systems market. The demand for X-ray inspection systems in the food processing industry is increasing due to the need to detect foreign bodies such as metal, glass, and bones in food products. The use of X-ray inspection systems helps in detecting foreign bodies and reduces the risk of contamination, ensuring food safety and quality control. According to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), approximately 48 million people in the United States get sick from foodborne illnesses each year. This has led to an increasing demand for food safety and quality control measures, including X-ray inspection systems to detect foreign bodies in food products.

The United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has implemented strict regulations to ensure the safety of food products, leading to an increased demand for X-ray inspection systems in the food industry. X-ray inspection systems in food production help detect foreign contaminants, such as metal, glass, or bone fragments, which can cause serious harm to consumers if ingested. According to the FDA, there were 3,606 food recalls in 2019, many of which were due to contamination of foreign materials. X-ray inspection systems in the food industry can help prevent these types of recalls and ensure the safety of food products.
