The metalworking machinery market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• The expansion of the metalworking machinery market has been notably robust in the past few years. It is projected to soar from $280.45 billion in 2024 to $301.64 billion in 2025, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.6%.
The surge in the historical period is due to factors such as industrialization, worldwide commerce and export, growth in the automotive sector, and infrastructure advancements.
The metalworking machinery market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• The market size for metalworking machinery is projected to experience significant growth in the upcoming years, expanding to a size of $391.6 billion by 2029, at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.7%.
This forecasted growth for the period can be linked to factors such as the integration of industry 4.0, adherence to sustainability and environmental regulations, customization and production in smaller batches, reshoring and diversification of the supply chain, along with digital twin and simulation. Key tendencies anticipated during this forecasted period encompass additive manufacturing (3D printing), robotics and automation, hybrid machines, the advent of smart factories, and focus on training and development of the workforce.
The upswing in the metal working machinery manufacturing market is supported by the steady economic expansion projected in numerous developed and developing nations. To illustrate this, the International Monetary Fund (IMF), a financial institution based in the US, reveals that China's gross domestic product (GDP) ascended from $17.75 trillion in 2021 to $18.1 trillion in 2022. The market's growth is also anticipated to be boosted by the rebound in commodity prices, following a substantial drop during the historical period. During the prediction period, developed economies are predicted to maintain consistent growth. Emerging markets are also anticipated to outpace growth in developed economies over the forecast period. The steady economic expansion is predicted to boost investments in end-user markets, thereby propelling the market during the forecasted period.

Machine producers are providing high-tech 6-axis CNC milling machines that allow for the efficient creation of intricate parts. This specific form of CNC machining employs computers to manage machine tools like lathes, mills, grinders, and routers. The 6-axis CNC machine transforms a raw metal rod into the final product by manipulating both ends of the fixture. This technique yields high-quality results while reducing mistakes. CNC milling is useful for the small-batch production of complex elements and the creation of unique precision components. Key manufacturers of the 6-axis CNC milling machines include Yamazaki Mazak, DMG MORI, ERLO, Giben International, Haas Automation, Knuth Machine Tools, and IMSA.
