Rising Demand for Automation in Manufacturing and Industrial Sectors
India's hydraulics, pneumatics, and actuators market is witnessing rapid growth, mainly due to increasing automation in industries such as the automobile, aerospace, and heavy machinery. The pace of adoption of hydraulic and pneumatic systems in automated production lines, robotic systems, and precision machinery is greatly driven by Industry 4.0 and smart manufacturing practices. Such mechanism improves efficiency at work, reduces human intervention, and raises the overall productivity. The Indian government's initiatives promoting investments in manufacturing automation, such as the Make in India program, have also contributed to greater demand for hydraulic and pneumatic actuators. The burgeoning rise of EVs is another factor driving the industry, as these manufacturers call increasingly upon motion control technology for the precision assembly and testing processes. For instance, in September 2024, as per industry reports, India's electric vehicle sales may hit 3-4 million units by 2025 and 10 million by 2030. Currently, two- and three-wheelers dominate, comprising 80% of the market, driving rapid industry growth. Moreover, advancements in sensor technologies and IoT-enabled hydraulic and pneumatic systems are facilitating predictive maintenance, minimizing downtime, and reducing operational costs. With increasing labor costs and the need for enhanced efficiency, industries are investing in high-performance actuation systems. This trend is prompting key market players to innovate and offer energy-efficient, intelligent actuator solutions that integrate seamlessly with automated industrial setups. Consequently, the market is positioned for ongoing expansion, fueled by technological progress and changing industry needs
Expansion of Infrastructure and Construction Projects Driving Demand for Heavy-Duty Actuation Systems
India’s ongoing infrastructure development, including highways, railways, smart cities, and urban mobility projects, is significantly boosting the demand for hydraulic, pneumatic, and actuator systems. Hydraulic actuators play a crucial role in heavy equipment such as excavators, cranes, loaders, and material-handling machinery, which are essential for large-scale construction activities. With government initiatives like the National Infrastructure Pipeline (NIP) and PM Gati Shakti, the demand for reliable and efficient hydraulic and pneumatic systems is increasing. The surge in investments in renewable energy projects, including solar and wind power plants, is further driving demand for actuators in applications such as turbine blade control and solar tracking systems. The growing emphasis on sustainability is also leading to innovations in hydraulic and pneumatic systems, focusing on energy efficiency and reduced environmental impact. Manufacturers are increasingly developing electro-hydraulic and electro-pneumatic hybrid systems that optimize power consumption while maintaining high performance. For instance, in March 2025, John Cockerill Defense and Electro Pneumatics & Hydraulics announced a joint venture to manufacture hydraulic actuator-integrated turrets for India’s Light Tank program, boosting defense self-reliance under ‘Make in India’ with advanced weapon systems. Furthermore, India’s expanding logistics and warehousing sector is contributing to the rising demand for automated material handling equipment, forklifts, and conveyor systems equipped with advanced actuation technologies. These developments indicate a sustained growth trajectory for the hydraulics, pneumatics, and actuator market, as infrastructure and industrial expansion continue to shape demand patterns.
