February 2025 | Report Format: Electronic (PDF)

Test Benches Market Growth & Trends

The global test benches market size is expected to reach USD 1.96 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 5.4% from 2025 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Increasing adoption of test benches in various industrial applications, such as automotive, semiconductor and electronics, industrial manufacturing, and engineering, is likely to propel the market growth over the forecast period. Need for the testing of appliances and equipment that are under development, such as consumer electronic devices, car components, turbines, and pumps, is estimated to drive the market over the next few years. Testing systems are also used for the measurement and inspection of machines and instruments.

Testing systems are used by the semiconductor manufacturing companies to enhance their performance capability and the speed of operation, which, in turn, reduces the cost of the semiconductor device. Furthermore, increasing demand for testing systems from the automotive industry owing to significant increase in the sales of vehicles is boosting the growth of the market. Recent innovation in the automotive industry, such as autonomous cars and electric vehicles, is further driving the demand for testing systems. Lightweight materials including processed steel, carbon fiber, aluminum, and steel are used to enhance the performance of the vehicles and reduce the weight and complexity of the automotive parts.

Companies are significantly investing in the installation of the test benches in order to deliver quality products to the end customers. For instance, in late 2017, Winergy, a business segment for gearboxes of Flender GmbH, a Siemens Company, installed the most extensive testing system in Australia for the testing of wind turbine gearboxes. The company has invested USD 3.95 million in the installation of the 2.8 MW full load test bench.

Europe is expected to register the highest CAGR over the forecast period owing to increasing production of testing benches in the countries, such as Germany, Italy, and U.K. Asia Pacific held the largest market share in 2019 owing to the presence of a large number of semiconductor and electronics manufacturing companies, especially in China. Countries such as U.S., Canada, and India are anticipated to generate considerable revenue over the next few years. Key players operating in the test benches market include Mark-10 (U.S.), Robert Bosch GmbH (Germany); AMETEK Sensors, Test & Calibration (U.S.); Blum-Novotest (Germany); and IAG Industrie Automatisierungsgesellschaft m.b.H. (Austria).
