In terms of growth, APAC is anticipated to become the fastest-growing market with an impressive CAGR of 7.6% during 2020-2027. APAC comprises several developing economies, such as China, India, Vietnam, and other southeast countries, as well as developed economies, such as Japan and Australia. Manufacturing industries in Asian countries are booming at an exponential rate, which boosts the penetration of Industry 4.0. By using Industrial Fourth Revolution in streamlining the manufacturing processes, the use of motion positioning stages across the Asian economies is growing at an impressive rate. In addition, the Asian economy is known for having robust consumer electronics and semiconductor industries, which further contributes toward the growing adoption of motion positioning stages. Furthermore, it has been observed that countries in the MEA and SAM are adopting Industry 4.0, which is anticipated to drive the growth of this market in the coming years.

The COVID-19 pandemic is affecting industries across the world and the global economy has witnessed the worst hit in 2020 and is likely to continue in 2021. The outbreak has created significant disruptions in various industries, such as electronics & semiconductor, automotive, defense, medical devices, and manufacturing. The US is a significant market for motion positioning stages, especially in the manufacturing and automotive sectors. The exponential rise in the number of COVID-19 cases and increasing number of reported deaths in the country affect the manufacturing sector. North America is home to a large number of manufacturing and technology companies. The factory and business shutdowns across the US, Canada, and Mexico impact the adoption of motion positioning stages. Hence, the ongoing COVID-19 crisis and critical situation in the US will affect the growth of the motion positioning stages market in North America for the next few quarters.
