Plasma Welding Market
The plasma welding market was valued at $1.4 billion in 2023 and is projected to reach $2.1 billion by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 4.6% from 2024 to 2032.
Plasma welding is an advanced welding form that uses tungsten inert gas (TIG) during the process. TIG is a high-temperature plasma gas which melts the base material and aids in achieving precise & efficient welds. Plasma welding is preferably used in several industries, including aerospace, automotive, and manufacturing. The versatility of plasma welding makes it suitable for thin materials such as nickel alloys, stainless steel, and titanium.
Technological advancements across diverse sectors have boosted the requirement for cutting-edge welding solutions, thereby driving the growth of the plasma welding market. In addition, rapid expansion of the automotive industry is boosting the demand for plasma welding. Furthermore, the usage of lightweight materials in the defense & aerospace industry makes plasma welding a necessity due to its precise performance. To reduce the possibility of errors & enhance efficiency, the integration of automation and robotics is a key trend gaining prominence in the market. These technologies enhance flexibility during industrial processes and accelerate productivity.
However, the upfront costs associated with the procurement and maintenance of equipment for plasma welding technique are significantly high, which deters several small-scale industries from investing in it. Contrarily, to compensate for the expenses and reduce the excessive environmental impact, the manufacturers are striving to develop innovative equipment that reduces the overall cost of welding by saving energy. For instance, voestalpine BOHler Welding Automation Gmbh, a German welding company, has introduced an energy saving welding machine for the automotive industry which reduces 50% of the time consumption and 20% of wire consumption. The machine is entirely automated, offering benefits such as repeatability, speed, and control.
