Key Abrasive Blasting Equipment Market Driver
The growing demand from the automotive industry is notably driving the abrasive blasting equipment market growth. Abrasive blasting equipment is used during the automobile manufacturing process and while performing restoration work on old vehicles. To restore old vehicles, blasting is used to remove the paint or rust from the metal body before repainting. Apart from the finishing of vehicle exteriors, blasting is also used on various internal parts of vehicles for cleaning and rust removal.
Portable blasting equipment is generally used for these applications. The rising adoption of industrial automation and global economic growth is expected to drive the growth of the automotive sector in the coming years. This will subsequently drive the demand for automotive abrasive blasting equipment and lead to sand blasting machine market growth during the forecast period.
Key Abrasive Blasting Equipment Market Trend
Leveraging e-commerce to increase market penetration is a trend influencing the abrasive blasting equipment market growth. The global abrasive blasting equipment market has been steadily adopting new technologies and e-retailing. The vendors of abrasive blasting equipment are expected to increase their online presence to take advantage of the rising number of online shoppers. To reach out to a wider base of customers across the world, vendors and distributors of abrasive blasting equipment are increasingly selling their products on e-commerce websites, such as Amazon.com Inc. (Amazon) and eBay Inc. (eBay).
In online shopping, buyers can compare different products and read reviews from other buyers, which can help them in decision-making. The easy payment, packaging, and tracking options associated with e-commerce are expected to attract more vendors and buyers during the forecast period. Considering these factors, the promotion and sales of abrasive blasting equipment through various online channels are expected to fuel the growth of the global abrasive blasting equipment market during the forecast period.
Key Abrasive Blasting Equipment Market Challenge
The growing use of automation may impede the abrasive blasting equipment market growth. Rising concerns about the health and safety of workers while performing blasting operations have led to the framing of regulations on their use. This poses a challenge to the growth of the global sand blasting machine market. Therefore, vendors are launching automated blasting equipment. Automation improves productivity and enables companies to have an edge over their competitors. It enables new business models that are focused on providing new goods and helps companies improve their flexibility and efficiency. Increased productivity is crucial for improving the overall GDP of a country and directly affects jobs and wages. Hence, governments are supporting automation.
Rapid advances in software programming techniques, combined with new vision and motion technologies, are expanding the scope of robot applications. By using these techniques, industries are improving the accuracy, quality, and speed of specific processes. These advances are expanding the scope of robot applications and further boosting the adoption of robotic blasting equipment. This is leading to the replacement of manual abrasive blasting equipment with automated and robotic abrasive blasting systems, which will pose a threat to the market growth during the forecast period.
