Integrated Brake Control Market: Competitive Research And Precise Outlook 2019 To 2027

• Integrated brake control is a single unit that comprises the non-vacuum electro-hydraulic (electro-mechanic) brake control system, which is fitted in the vehicle to reduce brake response time and increase efficiency of braking.
• This integrated unit replaces the need for a vacuum pump (in case of air brakes), vacuum booster, electronic stability control as well as depending sensors, switches, and controllers, making the unit cost effective. Furthermore, it reduces maintenance charges that are incurred by the other components mentioned above.

Key drivers of global integrated brake control market

• Innovative technologies such as integrated brake control are being incorporated in vehicles owing to consumer demand and to comply with various government legislations. Furthermore, the vehicle steering is fitted with steering turning angle sensors, which are integrated with the vehicle brake system, to improve vehicle handling and safety.
• Vehicle engine and transmission systems are being designed to work together to reduce vehicle emissions, decrease fuel consumption, increasing fuel economy, and comply with environmental norms to curb pollution. The integrated brake control unit can also offer regenerative braking, making the vehicle fuel-efficient, and recharge batteries in case of hybrid vehicles. Increasing fuel efficiency leads to reduced fuel consumptions and subsequently, lowered CO2 and NOX vehicle emissions.
• Adoption of various electronic systems that incorporate sensors and actuators is increasing owing to a rise in trend of preference toward automatic emergency braking systems, resulting into more complex electro-mechanical systems. However, the implementation of integrated brake control (IBC) system eliminates the need for several conventional brake components, resulting in 20% cost savings for vehicle manufacturers and reduction in overall weight by 11 lbs. (5 kg).
• The IBC can incorporate an anti-skid electronic stability control system, which further increases the overall braking performance of the vehicle by reducing braking time and vehicle skidding. For instance, an IBC unit developed by ZF Friedrichshafen AG installed in General Motor’s full-size pickups trucks incorporates anti-skid electronic stability unit to prevent vehicles from skidding on muddy and snowy terrain.
• All the factors mentioned above are driving the market for integrated brake control (IBC) systems

Regenerative system segment to hold major share of integrated brake control market

• Rising trend toward autonomous vehicles (AVs), owing to driverless operation and stringent government regulations to reduce vehicle emission, is boosting the preference for electrical vehicles. An electric AV is fully capable of driving without human intervention. A regenerative braking technology enables the vehicle to charge the battery by utilizing the kinetic energy of the vehicle while braking.
• Demand for regenerative braking capable system is rising, as it increase vehicle efficiency and reduce strain on the vehicle battery
• On the other hand, a fully electronic brake control system reduces brake response time. This in turn, reduces braking distance by several meters, which can increase fuel economy of the vehicle. This system not only improves vehicle safety, but it is also easy to maintain.
• Integration of Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) and Differential Slip Control (DSR), and Automatic Traction Control (ATC), together with fully electronic brake control system, further increases the effectiveness of the system. This in turn, drives the regenerative system segment.
