This metal working machinery market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry. The global metalworking machinery market grew from $252.93 billion in 2022 to $271.38 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.3%. 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 metalworking machinery market is expected to grow to $346.97 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 6.3%. The metal working machinery manufacturing market growth is aided by stable economic growth forecasted in many developed and developing countries.

Recovering commodity prices, after a significant decline in the historic period is further expected to aid the market growth. Developed economies are also expected to register stable growth during the forecast period. Additionally, emerging markets are expected to continue to grow slightly faster than the developed markets in the forecast period. Stable economic growth is expected to increase investments in the end-user markets, thereby driving the market during the forecast period. The outbreak of COVID-19 disease (COVID-19) has acted as a massive restraint on the metalworking machinery manufacturing market in 2020 as supply chains were disrupted due to trade restrictions and manufacturing activity declined due to lockdowns imposed by governments globally. COVID-19 is an infectious disease with flu-like symptoms including fever, cough, and difficulty in breathing. The virus was first identified in 2019 in Wuhan, Hubei province of the People’s Republic of China, and spread globally including Western Europe, North America, and Asia. Machinery manufacturers depend heavily on the supply of raw materials, parts, and components from different countries across the globe. As many governments restricted the movement of goods across countries, manufacturers had to halt production due to a lack of raw materials and components. The outbreak is expected to continue to have a negative impact on businesses throughout 2020 and into 2021. However, it is expected that the metalworking machinery manufacturing market will recover from the shock across the forecast period as it is a 'black swan event and not related to ongoing or fundamental weaknesses in the market or the global economy.

Metal matrix composites (MMCs) are a class of materials (metals, alloys, or intermetallic compounds) that have been reinforced with particles, whiskers, or continuous fibers. MMCs are excellent substitutes for conventional materials owing to their hardness, specific strength, and creep resistance. The main types of metal matrix composites are aluminium MMC, magnesium MMC, copper MMC, superalloys MMC, and others. Aluminum is a chemical compound that is a light, silver-colored metal that is mostly utilized in the manufacture of cooking equipment and aircraft components. Aluminum metal matrix composites (AlMMCs) are a type of material that has been shown to fulfil the majority of the stringent requirements in applications requiring lightweight, high stiffness, and moderate strength. Magnesium-matrix composites have been developed for the space industry thanks to the low density of magnesium and its alloys. Copper-matrix composites are superior compared to other MMCs. Some equipment in particle accelerators, such as Radio Frequency Quadrupoles (RFQs) or electron targets, uses copper MMC compounds such as Glidcop to retain the material properties of copper at high temperatures and radiation levels. Super alloys are commonly used as candidate materials for manufacturing gas turbine blades, where they operate at higher temperatures and speeds. The various production technologies include liquid metal infiltration, powder metallurgy, casting, and deposition techniques. Metal matrix composites are used in various sectors, such as automotive and transportation, aerospace and defense, electrical and electronics, and industrial, among others.

For instance, according to the Statista, the global automotive industry is expected to grow to 9 trillion U.S. dollars by 2030, with new vehicle sales accounting for about 38% of this value. Electric vehicle sales are expected to increase from 2.5 million in 2020 to 3.4 million in 2021 and 31.1 million in 2030. Therefore, the expansion of the automotive industry propels the growth of the metal matrix composite market. The growth in technological advancements is shaping the metal matrix composite market. Major institutes and companies are focusing on projects involving advanced composite materials for the automotive and aerospace industries. According to a study published in 2021, Al-based metal matrix composites (AMMCs) have enormous applications in aerospace, automobiles, and other structural applications. Compared with conventional processes such as casting and powder metallurgy, AMMCs processed by additive manufacturing show a significant difference in microstructure and properties. Further, in 2019, the CSIR-National Institute for Interdisciplinary Science and Technology launched an Indo-German project on innovative composite materials involving near-net shape (NIIST) technology. The objective of the new CSIR-NIIST project is to produce lightweight, near-net-form carbon fiber-reinforced aluminium composites and parts for the automotive and aerospace sectors.
