Summary
Major players in the fractional horsepower (FHP) motors market are Johnson Electric Holdings Limited, AMETEK Inc., ABB Group, NIDEC Corporation, Allied Motion Inc., Rockwell Automation Inc., Toshiba International Corporation, BorgWarner Inc., DENSO Corporation, Robert Bosch GmbH, Brook Crompton, Schneider Electric, OMRON Corporation, Danaher Corporation, and General Electric.
The global fractional horsepower (FHP) motor market is expected to grow from $ 12.74 billion in 2021 to $ 13.67 billion in 2022 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.3%. The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term. The war between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, effecting many markets across the globe. The fractional horsepower (FHP) motor market is expected to reach $ 17.53 billion in 2026 at a CAGR of 6.4%.
The fractional horsepower (FHP) motor market consists of sales of fractional horsepower (FHP) motors by entities (organizations, sole traders, and partnerships) that are used to drive pumps and compressors in refrigerators, coffee machines, washing machines, and other machines.Fractional horsepower motors are small motors with a power rating of less than one horsepower, or a fraction.
The size of the frame and the total fractional horsepower of the motor are typically used to classify FHP motors.Due to their tiny design, fractional horsepower motors are an excellent resource in a variety of businesses, including those that manufacture domestic appliances, automobile windows, and medical instruments.
Automotive engineering, heating and cooling, home appliances, agriculture, food and beverage, and personal care/hygiene are some of the industries that rely on fractional horsepower motors the most.
The main types of fractional horsepower (FHP) motors are AC and DC.The AC fractional horsepower (FHP) motors work on an alternating current that changes the direction of electron movement back and forth regularly or in cycles.
The different product types include brushed and brushless that involve various phases such as single-phase, three-phase. The several applications include automotive, HVAC, medical equipment, home appliances, and others.
Asia Pacifc was the largest region in the fractional horsepower (FHP) motors market in 2021. The regions covered in the fractional horsepower (FHP) motors market report are Asia-Pacific, Western Europe, Eastern Europe, North America, South America, Middle East and Africa.
The rise in consumer awareness about eco-friendly products is expected to propel the growth of the fractional horsepower motor market.The changing climate and harmful environmental impacts have led to an increase in awareness of eco-friendly products.
Fractional horsepower motors operate on very little power and are energy-efficient motors that save a lot of energy and do not have a harmful impact on the environment.For instance, according to The Consumer Sustainability Survey (2019) conducted among 6,000 consumers aged from 18 years to 70 years in 11 countries by Accenture plc, an Ireland-based professional services company, in comparison to five years ago, over three-quarters of respondents (72%) said they are now purchasing more environmentally friendly goods, and 81% indicated they anticipate doing so in the upcoming five years.
Therefore, awareness regarding environmentally friendly products will drive the demand for the fractional horsepower motors market.
Product innovation is the key trend gaining popularity in the fractional horsepower motor market.Major companies operating in the fractional horsepower motor market are focused on developing new and advanced products to strengthen their market position.
For instance, in September 2021, Kirloskar Brothers Limited (KBL), an India-based pump manufacturing company involved in the engineering and manufacturing of systems for fluid management, launched the NEO Series 4-in, a new series of borewell submersible pumps.This new series has NEMA (National Electrical Manufacturers Association) couplings and a high torque motor that offers a wide voltage range from 180–240 volts, which protects the motor from burning due to high or low voltage.
The motor present in the pump ranges from 0.5 to 3 HP (horsepower). The NEO Series 4-in prevents sand from entering and safeguards the pump-set brushes. They also have a cutting-edge water-cooled motor that guarantees a 30% increase in discharge and a 60% increase in life and energy savings (a 60% reduction in electricity use).
In February 2021, Nidec Corporation, a Japan-based manufacturer of electric motors, acquired Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Machine Tool Co., Ltd. for an undisclosed amount. With this acquisition, Nidec Corporation aims to expand its sales, which combines a motor, an inverter, and a reducer, and improve its ability to manufacture gears, the essential part of the traction unit. Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Machine Tool Co., Ltd. is a Japan-based firm that designs and manufactures fractional horsepower motors and water pumps.
