SURGICAL CUTTING TOOL MARKET OVERVIEW

The global surgical cutting tool market size was USD 14.89 billion in 2024 and market is projected to touch USD 26.7 billion by 2033, at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.7% during the forecast period.

Surgical cutting tools are also harmonic scalpels, and handheld surgical medical equipment is used during surgeries to cut the tissues. Surgical tools are powered with batteries electrically, and the frontal end of surgical cutters is enabled with blades. The temporal end is equipped with handles to hold the device. The handle of the surgical tools has removable grips and is used according to the operator's needs. The type segment consists of cobalt and titanium carbides whereas the application segment consists of tungsten steel plates, cutting tools, and other equipment.

The blade of the frontal end passes through the ultrasonic surgical waves, mainly used for tissue cutting. These tools improve the surgeon's efficiency during the surgical process and reduce the risks during the process. Surgical cutters have made the complicated surgery process more comfortable due to the ease of handling, raising the demand for this product in the market. Thus, this will lead to market growth and share of the product.
