Global Electro-Pneumatic Proportional Valves Market 2026 by Manufacturers, Regions, Type and Application, Forecast to 2032
Description
According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global Electro-Pneumatic Proportional Valves market size was valued at US$ 264 million in 2025 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 348 million by 2032 with a CAGR of 4.1% during review period.
In 2024, global sales of electric proportional valves will reach 1.2 million units, with an average selling price of US$200 per unit.The Electro-Pneumatic Proportional Valves are to adjust the cross-sectional area of the valve core according to the size of the control signal, so as to achieve the technological goals and requirements of adjusting the pressure. The flow control of the Electro-Pneumatic Proportional Valves can be divided into two types. One is switch control and the other is continuous control. The difference between the servo valve and other valves is that its energy loss is greater because it requires a certain flow to maintain the work of the pre-stage control oil circuit. One is switch control: either fully open or fully closed, the flow is either maximum or minimum, and there is no intermediate state. The other is continuous control: the valve port can be opened to any opening degree as required, thereby controlling the size of the flow through. The Electro-Pneumatic Proportional Valves control the air pressure through the electric signal, which can realize the continuous and stepless adjustment of the air pressure, and can realize the remote control and program control.
Global key players of electro-pneumatic proportional valves include Aventics (Emerson), SMC, Marsh Bellofram, ROSS, Proportion-Air, etc. Global top five manufacturers hold a share over 51%. The key players are mainly located in Europe, North America, China, and Japan. In terms of product, flow control is the largest segment, with a share over 63%. And in terms of application, the largest application is petrochemical, with a share over 18%, followed by food and beverage.
With the promotion of Industry 4.0 and intelligent manufacturing, the application of electric proportional valves in control systems continues to increase, especially in industries with high automation requirements, such as oil and gas, chemicals, and pharmaceuticals. Modern industry requires higher energy efficiency and precise fluid control, and electric proportional valves have become key components because they can provide precise flow, pressure, and temperature control. At the same time, the advancement of the Internet of Things (IoT) and digital transformation in multiple industries has led to a sharp increase in the demand for intelligent control equipment such as electric proportional valves, especially high-end products with integrated feedback control and remote monitoring functions. The electric proportional valve market will benefit from the continued advancement of industrial automation, the popularization of intelligent manufacturing, and the need to improve energy efficiency in the next few years. With the advancement of science and technology and the integration of intelligent technologies, the market size and technology applications will expand further, especially in the Asia-Pacific region, where the growth potential is significant.
The main drivers of the electric proportional valve market include the following:
I. Technological Innovation and Performance Breakthroughs
1. Precision Control Technology Upgrade
Core Parameter Optimization: Utilizing proportional solenoids and PWM technology, this valve achieves a force-to-current ratio of 10-30 N/A and micron-level displacement resolution (10-30 ms dynamic response). Combined with LVDT/Hall sensors (0.1 μm resolution) and PID algorithms, this valve achieves control accuracy of ±2% and hysteresis compensation of <5%.
Material and Process Breakthroughs: New materials (such as 60Si2MnA spring steel and hard chrome-plated valve cores) enhance durability, achieving a valve core lifespan of up to 12,000 hours. Micron-level machining precision (V-groove design with linearly adjustable flow coefficient from 0.3 to 0.8) ensures stability.
Intelligent Integration: Integrated IOLink technology enables stable operation in an ambient temperature range of -40°C to 125°C, reducing failure rates by 80%. Digital hydraulic technology increases control resolution to 16 bits, and the energy recovery efficiency of the hydraulic transformer + proportional valve system reaches 40%-60%. 2. Multi-Scenario Adaptability
Extreme Operating Conditions: The petrochemical industry uses a multi-stage spring design to achieve precise hydrogen pressure control (explosion-proof Ex d IIB T4); the metallurgical industry achieves 30ms switching in the hydraulic vibration system of continuous casting machines.
Emerging Technology Integration: Integrating with the Internet of Things (IoT) and digital transformation, integrated feedback control and remote monitoring capabilities meet the real-time fluid dynamics adjustments required by smart manufacturing.
II. Industrial Automation and Industrial Upgrading Demand

Key Industry Penetration:
Automotive: Used in new energy vehicles for battery coolant flow control and hybrid vehicle oil flow optimization to improve energy efficiency.
Aerospace: Flap and elevator control in flight control systems requires high precision (5ms step response) and reliability.
Process Industries: The chemical and pharmaceutical industries rely on proportional valves for precise liquid/gas metering, with demand for pressure and temperature control driving market growth.
2. Policy Support for Industrial Upgrading
National Strategic Direction: China's 14th Five-Year Plan includes the valve industry in high-end manufacturing, promoting transformation toward intelligent, energy-saving, and environmentally friendly manufacturing. Various provinces and cities have introduced policies to support technological innovation. For example, Fujian Detsen Valve has developed products with pressure resistance exceeding 64 MPa.
III. Cost Optimization and Environmental Regulations
1. Large-Scale Production and Localization
Cost Reduction: Large-scale sensor production has lowered prices. The rise of domestic supply chains (such as Goodix Technology and FocalTech) has enabled the localization of high-end sensors, driving the adoption of electric proportional valves among small and medium-sized enterprises and emerging markets (such as Southeast Asia).
Expanding Application Scenario: Demand in the smart home sector is rapidly growing, and proportional valves, as key components, are benefiting from the widespread adoption of home automation devices.
2. Environmental Regulations and Energy Efficiency Requirements
Energy Conservation and Emission Reduction Demand: The global emphasis on a low-carbon economy is driving the application of electric proportional valves in fields such as automotive and industrial automation, reducing energy consumption and emissions. For example, hydraulic transformer + proportional valve combinations achieve energy recovery efficiencies of 40%-60%.
Compliance Driven: Regulations such as the EU's "AI Directive" promote biometric data security, indirectly increasing market trust in high-precision control equipment (such as electric proportional valves). The electric proportional valve market is showing a sustained growth trend driven by three major factors: technological innovation and performance breakthroughs, industrial automation and industry upgrading needs, and cost optimization and environmental protection regulations.
