Market Introduction
The industrial radiography market in SAM is segmented into Brazil, Argentina, and the Rest of SAM. The Rest of SAM comprises Chile, Colombia, Guatemala, and Peru. Several initiatives are taken by governments to support the growth of the technology sector. For instance, Argentina is concentrating on attracting FDIs by taking several initiatives, such as easing import restrictions, signing international bilateral agreements, and removing restrictions on foreign investment. Such initiatives help SAM countries develop their industrial sector. Moreover, the growing middle-class population in the region is positively affecting the growth of the aviation industry. Further, the demand for aircraft in this region is expected to increase in the future owing to the development of the airport infrastructure, improvement in the air transportation network, and the high share of low-cost transportation in domestic routes along with the active operation of large aviation holding companies and national airlines. Thus, with the growing MRO operations in this region, the adoption of industrial radiography is expected to increase in the coming years. Moreover, in 2017, Argentine President Mauricio Macri announced a 1 Million Plan for the automotive industry, under which the country aimed to produce 750,000 cars annually by 2019 and 1 million units annually by 2023. Therefore, the government initiatives to support the growth of the automotive sector would strengthen the automotive manufacturing industry in the region in the coming years, which is likely to support the adoption of industrial radiography in the region during the forecast period.
In South America, Brazil is the worst impacted country due to the COVID-19 outbreak. As of April 2021, the country is still facing significant surge in COVID-19 cases. Also, countries such as Peru, Argentina, Uruguay, and Venezuela were impacted by the pandemic and are still facing the significant impact of the second wave of the pandemic. Countries such as Brazil and Argentina were under lockdown, and some parts of the region are still under lockdown, halting the business operation and manufacturing process. In some parts of the region, there are travelling restrictions, and various manufacturing projects also slowed down. This has lowered the demand for various new machines and equipment that are used for inspecting defects in the production line in industries. Further, manufacturers are facing challenges in procuring raw materials and managing supply chain and logistics. The COVID-19 pandemic has a negative impact on the industrial radiography market in major SAM countries.
Market Overview and Dynamics
The industrial radiography market in SAM is expected to grow from US$ 16.90 million in 2021 to US$ 28.98 million by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 8.0% from 2021 to 2028. Growing importance of quality control; manufacturers are highly investing in quality control operations and equipment owing to the increasing competition across industrial sectors. Industrial radiography, which is a non-destructive testing method, is one of the major technologies that manufacturers are adopting significantly. Industrial radiography is a technique that uses ionizing radiation for identifying deviation in the component and materials X-rays and gamma-rays in this method. A few examples of defects are cracks, cavities, gaps, delamination, pores, shrinkage holes, slag inclusions, and looseness. The industrial radiography technique can be performed on types of materials with various densities. Also, the technique requires minimal surface preparation and can be performed on the surface and subsurface of objects to identity defects. Thus, it allows manufacturers to conduct quality checks of materials and components with the need to completely dissemble them and save a significant amount of time and human effort. Moreover, the industrial radiography system is adopted by end users to perform periodic quality check of machinery and equipment. Thus, owing to these factors, the SAM industrial radiography market is experiencing growth. This is bolstering the growth of the industrial radiography market.
