GEAR HOBBING MACHINE MARKET OVERVIEW

The global gear hobbing machine market size was USD 0.71 billion in 2024 and market is projected to touch USD 0.89 billion by 2033, at a CAGR of 2.6% during the forecast period.

A gear hobbing machine is used to produce gear according to the various specifications. Instead of extruding, forging, etc., the gear machines use a variety of cutting processes like broaching, milling, hobbing, and grinding. Leading manufacturers of gear machines are constantly improving their products to offer the necessary precision even for complicated gear designs. Two skew spindles are utilized during the gear cutting process on a hobbing machine. It is reasonably priced when compared to other gear forming machining processes, and it can be used to manufacture a variety of parts and quantities.

The most common universal gear application, such as the creation of helical and spur gears, is hobbling. Different systems and machines use gears, which come in a variety of types, sizes, and materials. The primary uses of gears include those found in speed gearboxes, feed gearboxes, speed initiatives in textile machinery, auto gearboxes, mining and processing equipment, industrial robots and toys, cement gearboxes, sugar gearboxes, and many more. Comparing the hobbing machine to other machines like the gear shaping machine, the gear machine has fewer tools, fewer work motions, and is much more rigid, productive, and strong.

COVID-19 IMPACT

Closure of Cosmetics Industry Restrained Market Growth

The COVID-19 outbreak caused unstable markets, a drop in consumer confidence, and problems with import and export commerce for producers of machinery and equipment. Markets were shuttered as a result of the lockdown, and many people stayed inside. Supply chain breaches, stock market inefficiencies, and vendor instability are results of this evolution. The market as a whole was impacted by the shutdown of the machinery and equipment industry. Because there was no longer a market for the product, gear machine became obsolete as those markets closed. In order to maintain stability amidst the disruptions, organizations were forced to redesign their entire operational structures as a result of the pandemic. The financial imbalance brought on by the closure of numerous stores and significant sectors was the primary factor that distorted the entire market. In addition, the outbreak has a negative impact on the business operations of the enterprises, which affects the market as a whole. The market has been somewhat impacted by this.

LATEST TRENDS

Adoption of 3D Printing to Boost the Market Growth

Adoption of 3D printing or additive manufacturing for gear manufacturing is one of the major trends that is accelerating market growth and will take off in the market in the upcoming years. Since 3D printing creates the product in tiny, one-by-one layers, it makes it easier to produce complex geometries and does away with the need for melting and reusing materials, which lowers capital and raw material costs and increases market sales. Although 3D printers have a high upfront cost, their advantages help manufacturers increase productivity and lower operating expenses, which drives up demand for gear machines. The industry is anticipated to grow during the forecast period thanks to this trend. Thus, it is anticipated that the increase adoption of 3D printing will increase overall market sales. These new developments and varieties in product are mostly to blame for the market's overall growth.
