The global radial forging machines market size was valued at $160 million in 2022, and is projected to reach $262 million by 2030, registering a CAGR of 7.3% during the forecast period (2023-2030). The market growth can be attributed to the increasing demand for radial forging machines from the automotive industry and other end-user industries. Radial forging machines are used for producing high-quality components with precise dimensions and excellent surface finish. These machines are also capable of handling large forgings, which makes them suitable for use in heavy engineering applications. The continuously increasing demands in view of better material properties especially in superalloys and high alloyed steel grades lead to improved radial forging systems. Reduced equipment costs, higher reliability, and flexibility have been the main targets for further development.
The global radial forging machine market is segmented based on the type, and application. Based on the type, the market is sub-segmented into hot forging and cold forging. Further, on the basis of application, the market is sub-segmented into the automotive industry, hardware tools, engineering machinery, and others. Among the application segment, the automotive sub-segment is expected to cater to a prominent market share over the forecast period owing to high production speeds, improved accuracy, and better surface finish.
Among the application, the automotive industry sub-segment is anticipated to hold a prominent share of the global radial forging machine market. Radial forging machines are widely used in the automotive industry as they offer high production speeds, improved accuracy, better surface finish, and greater versatility than bar or needle-type forged parts. The automotive sector is expected to witness significant growth owing to increasing demand for vehicles from countries such as India, China-Japan, and Germany among others.
The global radial forging machine market is further segmented based on geography including North America (the US, and Canada), Europe (Italy, Spain, Germany, France, and Others), Asia-Pacific (India, China, Japan, South Korea, and Others), and the Rest of the World (the Middle East &Africa, and Latin America). The market can be analyzed for a particular region or country level as per the requirement. Among these, the Asia-Pacific regional market is expected to cater to prominent growth over the forecast period, however, the Europe region is projected to experience considerable growth in the radial forging machine market.
Among all regions, the Asia-Pacific regional market is expected to hold a prominent share of the global radial forging machine market during the forecast period. The region has witnessed a surge in demand from China, India, Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan among other countries owing to their rapidly expanding manufacturing sector. China is considered the key manufacturing hub of machinery and equipment across the globe. For instance, in November 2018, China tested TMH20/15MN large radial precision forging machine at one heat load, and the first qualified high-end bar was forged. The successful test of the radial precision forging machine marks that the core manufacturing equipment of high-end pipe in China.
The major companies serving the global radial forging machine market include American GFM Corp., J&H CHEM, Kurimoto, Ltd., Mitsubishi Motors Corp., SMS Siemag, and others. The market players are considerably contributing to the market growth by the adoption of various strategies including mergers and acquisitions, partnerships, collaborations, funding, and new product launches, to stay competitive in the market.
