ELECTRIC POINT MACHINE MARKET OVERVIEW

The global electric point machine market size was anticipated to be valued at USD 0.45 billion in 2024, with a projected growth to USD 0.79 billion by 2033 at a CAGR of 6.5% during the forecast period from 2025 to 2033.

The word electric point machine represents a tool that uses an electric motor to carry out the function of unlocking, operating, locking, and detecting the correct setting of the point switches. This function is similar to that carried out by an operator using a lever in a mechanically lever frame.

Innovation and electric point machine market growth expansion are being fueled by strategic alliances between point machine makers, train operators, and technology providers. The need for energy-efficient and environmentally friendly point machines is being driven by the increasing attention being paid to sustainability and environmental issues.

COVID-19 IMPACT

Temporary Shutdowns to Degrade Market Share 

The COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, electric point machine experiencing lower-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden rise in CAGR is attributable to the market’s growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels.

The COVID-19 outbreak had an effect on the market, similar to it has on other industries. The outbreak curtailed expenditures in infrastructure development, temporarily halted train construction, and disrupted the world's supply chain. However, the need of electric point machine will increase as nations recuperate concerning the outbreak and restart their economic activity. As long as efficient and secure rail transportation is required, market expansion is expected to be fueled by investments in rail infrastructure.
