Post-Brexit, trade restrictions between the UK and other European countries are likely to increase, while the new trade agreement between the USA, Canada, and Mexico, USMCA, imposed by USA President Donald Trump, is expected to increase the prices of metal components imported from Mexico. The increase of tariffs on foreign steel especially According to PBS news, the additional section 232 tariffs that cover derivative products made of steel and aluminum are slated to take effect in days. In January 2020, the administration announced that further tariffs will be put in place starting to protect against imports of steel-using products like tacks, nails, and parts for cars and tractors, and according to the presidential proclamation, it states that the net effect of the increase in the imports of the goods of these derivatives has been to erode the customer base for the U.S. which has increased the production cost of the mechanical power transmission equipment. Therefore, a reduction in world free trade is expected to hinder the mechanical power transmission equipment market due to the expected increase in production costs and tariffs. Magnetic gears are being increasingly adopted in the mechanical power transmission equipment industry. Magnetic gears are physically contact-less, which makes them enable efficiencies up to 99% or more. The magnetic gears obviate the need for using any transmission oil. With the nature of a contact-less operation, the gears are highly reliable and require minimal maintenance. The technology also helps prevent damage in case of a torque overload by auto-slipping, i.e. when the overload torque is removed, the gears also re-engage automatically.

Automotive hydraulic systems refer to power transmission systems that transmit energy or signals through the static or dynamic forces of liquids. This system is considered more accurate than traditional mechanical drive systems because the mechanical system can lose efficiency over time due to friction. These systems use fluids to transfer energy between two points due to the pressure difference. They can store and release energy more efficiently than batteries. The main types of components in the automotive hydraulics system are the master cylinder, slave cylinder, reservoir, and hose. The different vehicle types include passenger cars, light commercial vehicles, and heavy commercial vehicles. Passenger cars use automotive hydraulic systems for a dynamic adjustment in the height of the car. Passenger cars utilize hydraulic braking systems as the most common application of hydraulics. These systems use brake fluid to apply pressure to a braking pad, which then presses against the axel and prevents the car from moving. The various applications include brakes, clutches, suspension, and tappets. The end users are original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and after-market. The global automotive hydraulics system market is segmented - 1) By Component: Master Cylinder, Slave Cylinder, Reservoir, Hose 2) By Vehicle Type: Passenger Cars, Light Commercial Vehicles, Heavy Commercial Vehicles 3) By Application: Brake, Clutch, Suspension, Tappet 4) By End User: Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM), After Market The global automotive hydraulics system market size will grow from $37.59 billion in 2022 to $41.51 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.4%. The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term. The war between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, a surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, causing inflation across goods and services and affecting many markets across the globe. The market size of the global automotive hydraulics system is expected to grow to $58.88 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 9.1%. Increasing vehicle production is expected to propel the growth of the automotive hydraulics system market going forward. A vehicle is referred to as a means of transportation that is used to transport people and goods. Hydraulic systems can store and discharge energy in vehicles that work more efficiently than electric batteries in vehicles.
