Sector Analysis High Precision Measurement

As equipment becomes smaller and more precise, the need for precision in the manufacture of machine parts increases. In recent years, free-form surfaces are more frequently manufactured and used in a wide variety of products, such as optical systems, energy-efficient jet engines, human joint implants and solar panels. With the requirements imposed by continuous technological development, the need to make and measure these surfaces with very high precision is becoming increasingly important.

The largest investments in this sector are in Asia, particularly in Japan and Vietnam. Japan's foreign investment in Vietnam has seen steady growth over the years. In 2017, Japan topped the list of countries and territories investing in Vietnam with US$9.11 billion, accounting for 25.4 per cent of total capital.
