The global machine tools market size exceeded USD 82.9 billion in 2022 and is expected to rise to USD 139.69 billion by 2032, poised to grow at a CAGR of 5.9% from 2023 to 2032.
Machine tools encompass a variety of power-driven devices designed for cutting, shaping, and finishing materials. Among these tools are grinders, lathes, and other specialized tools. Lathes, for instance, are versatile machines that play a crucial role in shaping metal and wood. These machine tools are essential in various industries, providing the means to manipulate and refine materials with accuracy and efficiency.
Efficiency and differentiation play a crucial role in the manufacturing sector. A shorter lead time signifies better organizational efficiency, setting it apart. In machine tools, operational efficiency is swiftly achieved with computers. Automation, driven by technology, has enhanced part quality and consistency. It contributes to increased utilization, reduced cycle time, lead time, and labor costs, fostering sectoral growth. The connection between machine tools and the manufacturing sector is significant.
Single-purpose machines focus on doing one task very precisely and quickly. They're used for specific operations like packaging, leak control, function control, and finishing tasks. These machines, such as gear-cutting or gear-grinding machines, are mainly for production. A milling machine can perform various operations like turning, chamfering, cutting gears, and filleting. The growing metalworking industry worldwide has increased demand for milling machines, contributing to expanding the global machine tool market. The manufacturing sector's growth has further boosted the need for automated machine tools, particularly CNC machines, indicating a positive impact on the market.
The automotive industry heavily relies on machine tools, using them extensively for machining various components of internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles. These components include exhaust systems, pistons, valves, crankshafts, engine blocks, and manifolds. Machine tools are essential in automotive OEMs (Original Equipment Manufacturers) and auto parts manufacturing, playing a crucial role in production. Many well-known car manufacturers have incorporated hybrid technology into their vehicles, combining an internal combustion engine with an electric drive.
This hybrid technology demands intricate machining processes, as hybrid cars need durable components to seamlessly switch between electric and internal combustion modes, especially at high speeds. Despite the rise of electric vehicles, traditional internal combustion engine-based vehicles are anticipated to maintain dominance, fueling the growth of the machine tools market in India shortly.
Asia Pacific is set to lead the global machine tools market due to the growing number of industries involved in metal-cutting processes in the region. China, a significant user and market leader, contributes significantly to this dominance. The Asia Pacific region has witnessed substantial expansion and investment in the automobile, oil, gas, and rail sectors. Key players in this region include Yamazaki Mazak Corporation, DMG Mori, and OKUMA Corporation.
As a country's manufacturing sector grows, it boosts the prospects for the machine tools industry. The lead time between placing an order and its delivery is crucial in manufacturing. When multiple countries focus on manufacturing, it creates competition among them. This competition further drives the machine tools industry.
The region is witnessing growth due to increased government initiatives supporting various industries. Initiatives like the 'Make in India' campaign offer tax benefits and attract foreign direct investments (FDI) to boost the manufacturing sector. China is anticipated to experience significant growth driven by the expansion of its manufacturing industry.
