Frost & Sullivan's Strategic Analysis of Servo and Stepper Systems Market in Europe, finds that the market earned revenues of €1623.3 million in 2010 and estimates this to reach €3385.4 million in 2017.

Frost & Sullivan的《歐洲伺服和步進係統市場戰略分析》報告，指出2010年該市場營收為16.233億歐元，並預計2017年將達33.854億歐元。

Servo systems generate significantly more revenue than stepper ones. This is due to their lower costs and ability to support greater control and accuracy in various applications. Industrial automation and automotives are the major end user segments for both servo and stepper systems, contributing almost 40% of market revenues.

“The drive for energy efficiency and decentralised systems is highlighting the need for efficient servo and stepper systems,” notes Frost & Sullivan Research Analyst Raaj Thilak Raveendran. “This shift towards energy efficiency will boost demand levels over the next 7 years.”

Frost & Sullivan研究分析師Raaj Thilak Raveendran指出：“能源效率和分散式係統驅動器突出了高效伺服和步進係統的必要性。人們轉向對能源效率的關注將推動未來7年的需求水平。”

Signs of economic recovery, paralleled by increasing investments in end user segments such as automotive, industrial automation and packaging, will also enhance growth prospects.

經濟複蘇的跡象，以及通過增加對汽車
、工業自動化和包裝等終端用戶群的投資，也將促進市場增長前景。

In addition, the end user need for customised and energy efficient products is creating demand for integrated drive solutions. The potential increase in functionalities of servo and stepper systems is projected to expand the range of applications across various end user segments, which in turn will increase overall revenues. The benefits of integrated servo and stepper systems, such as networking capabilities and application oriented programming, will underpin market growth over the forecast period.

“The major challenge faced by manufacturers will be to provide integrated package solutions for servo systems,” states Raveendran. “Integrated solutions can be used directly for specific applications; this is a challenge for both end users and OEMs, since they have to find the best fit for existing servo motors / servo drives.”

“製造商將麵臨的主要挑戰是提供伺服係統的一攬子綜合方案。綜合方案可以直接用於一些特定應用，這對終端用戶和OEM而言都是一個挑戰，因為他們需要為現有的伺服電機、伺服驅動找出最匹配的。”

At present, servo systems’ efficiency is good. However, it can be further improved by integrating the drive and the motor, which will eventually reduce the wiring components.

目前，伺服係統的效率還是不錯的。但是，通過整合驅動和電機，最後減少布線部件，從而可以進一步改善效率。

“AC motors and drives are accepted in all industrial areas, due to their capabilities and comparatively lower price than servo systems,” remarks Raveendran. “Manufacturers who are shifting from pneumatic and hydraulic systems will look at the cost factor, so AC motors and drives will be preferred over servo systems in some applications.”

Raveendran表示：“由you於yu其qi作zuo用yong和he比bi伺si服fu係xi統tong相xiang對dui更geng低di的de價jia格ge，交jiao流liu電dian機ji和he驅qu動dong在zai所suo有you的de工gong業ye領ling域yu都dou有you應ying用yong。從cong氣qi動dong和he液ye壓ya係xi統tong轉zhuan移yi過guo來lai的de製zhi造zao商shang將jiang主zhu要yao關guan注zhu成cheng本ben因yin素su，因yin此ci交jiao流liu電dian機ji和he驅qu動dong將jiang在zai某mou些xie應ying用yong比bi伺si服fu係xi統tong優you先xian考kao慮lv。”

Tier 3 servo and stepper manufacturers are moving towards integrated technology to allow better focus on specific end user segments and their applications. This strategy will also push tier 3 companies into direct competition with tier 1 participants. This could in turn reduce market concentration over the long term, even while underlining the importance of continued investments in new product development.
