Automotive starter is used to initiate the operation of the vehicle by rotating an internal combustion engine. There are different types of starters, which include electric, pneumatic, and hydraulic. The internal combustion engine is a kind of feedback system, which rely mainly on inertia to initiate next cycle of rotation. The traditional starter motor were mainly human powered, in which the initial movement of the crankshaft was driven by human operated crank. The electric starter motor is the most commonly used in gasoline engines and small diesel engines. The latest technology advancement in automotive industry and have resulted in starter motor with permanent magnet or a series of parallel wound direct current electric motor. Bosch had developed a new 24-volt starter motor portfolio: the HEF109-L for heavy-duty vehicles. This will increase the capability of starter motor and result in increased demand for the market in future. There are various components involved in manufacture of starter motor such as armature, starter drive gear, shift fork, return spring, solenoid, brush, and others. The electric starter motor are mainly used in gasoline vehicles while pneumatic starter motor or hydraulic starter motor are used in diesel engine vehicles. Different starters are used for different vehicles mainly gasoline and diesel vehicles. The gasoline engine is expected to boost the starter motor market in future.
The factors that are responsible for the growth of automotive starter motor market are rise in the demand for passenger and commercial vehicles, development of advanced technology, stringent government regulations for emission, and among others. The rise in the demand for passenger and commercial vehicle mainly in emerging countries will increase the installation of starter motor in the vehicles. The electric starter motor is in high demand due to stringent government regulation for emission. There have been various developments in starter motor by the automotive manufacturers. The advance starter motor includes various automatic start and stop options in the vehicles. This growing development in the start and stop technology allows the driver to stop the vehicle automatically. This will result in the growth of the market.
The Automotive starter motor market is segmented based on type, component, engine type, and vehicle type. By type, the market is segmented based on electric, pneumatic, and hydraulic. Electric starter motor segment is expected to dominate the market during the forecast period due to increase in demand for gasoline operated vehicles. There has been growing sales of passenger and commercial vehicle operated by gasoline in emerging countries. This will increase the demand for installation of electric starter motor. By component, the market is segmented into armature, starter drive gear, shift fork, return spring, solenoid, brush, and others. Solenoid segment is expected to dominate the market during the forecast period because it allows large electric current pass through the starter motor. By engine type, the market is segmented based on gasoline and diesel. The gasoline segment is expected to dominate the market during the forecast period due to increase in the production of gasoline-powered passenger and commercial vehicles.
