FILAMENT WINDING MACHINE MARKET OVERVIEW

The global filament winding machine market size was valued at approximately USD 4.31 billion in 2025 and is expected to reach USD 9.67 billion by 2034, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of about 9.4% from 2025 to 2034.

Filament winding machine is a creation procedure essentially utilized for assembling open (chambers) or shut end structures (pressure vessels or tanks). This interaction includes twisting fibers under pressure over a pivoting mandrel. The mandrel pivots around the shaft (Hub 1 or X: Shaft) while a conveyance eye on a carriage (Hub 2 or Y: Even) navigates on a level plane in accordance with the hub of the turning mandrel, setting down filaments in the ideal example or point to the rotational hub. The most widely recognized fibers are glass or carbon and are impregnated with sap by going through a shower as they are twisted onto the mandrel. When the mandrel is totally covered to the ideal thickness, the tar is restored. Contingent upon the gum framework and its fix attributes, frequently the mandrel is autoclaved or warmed in a broiler or pivoted under brilliant radiators until the part is restored. When the sap has restored, the mandrel is eliminated or separated, leaving the empty eventual outcome. For certain items, for example, gas bottles, the 'mandrel' is a super durable piece of the completed item framing a liner to forestall gas spillage or as a hindrance to shield the composite from the liquid to be put away. The least filament winding machine machines have two tomahawks of movement, the mandrel turn and the carriage travel (normally flat).
