Synopsis
The global market for Voice Coil Motor (VCM) was estimated to be worth US$ 4065 million in 2024 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 6077 million by 2031 with a CAGR of 5.8% during the forecast period 2025-2031.
This report provides a comprehensive assessment of recent tariff adjustments and international strategic countermeasures on Voice Coil Motor (VCM) cross-border industrial footprints, capital allocation patterns, regional economic interdependencies, and supply chain reconfigurations.
Voice Coil Motor (VCM) is an electronic component that adjusts focus by moving multiple lens holders according to the change in current via magnets and a coil built into the component.
Voice Coil Montor working principle is that in a permanent magnetic field, the stretching position of the spring is controlled by changing the DC current of the coil in the motor, thereby driving the lens up and down movement.
Main driving factors
The trend of multi-camera in smartphones: Triple and quadruple rear cameras have become standard features on high-end models. The average number of cameras equipped on each smartphone has increased from 2.5 in 2019 to 3.4 in 2024. The popularization of 5G mobile phones and 50-megapixel cameras has driven up the performance demand for VCM voice coil motors.
Direction of technological upgrade
Material innovation: High magnetic energy product magnets (such as N54 grade neodymium iron boron) and low resistivity copper wires (OFC material) are adopted to enhance performance.
Structural optimization: Innovative solutions such as liquid VCM achieve contactless drive through magnetohydrodynamic suspension technology (laboratory stage).
Advancements in driver chips: Open-loop, closed-loop, and OIS optical image stabilization motor driver chip technologies continue to upgrade.
The competitive landscape of the industrial chain
The market share of domestic manufacturers rose from 40% in 2019 to 49% in 2020, gradually challenging the dominant position of foreign capital.
In the upstream materials sector, high-nickel tin-containing copper alloys such as MX215, C-17200 and C-19900 from Mitsubishi of Japan remain the mainstream choices.
International semiconductor giants (such as Texas Instruments and Renesas Electronics) dominate the driver chip market, but Chinese enterprises have demonstrated competitiveness in niche fields.
