Industrial Gearbox Market: Key Drivers, Trends, and Challenges

Based on our research output, there has been a neutral impact on the market growth during and post-COVID-19 era. The adoption of industrial automation is notably driving the market growth, although factors such as challenges in the mining and steel industry may impede the market growth. Our researchers analyzed the data with 2022 as the base year, along with the key drivers, trends, and challenges. A holistic analysis of drivers will help companies refine their marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage. 

Key Market Driver

The adoption of industrial automation is notably driving market growth. The growth in technology over the past few decades is driving advances in automation, prompting the adoption of robots and industrial automation. The use of automation across all industrial sectors globally is increasing. The rate of adoption of automation is especially high in the manufacturing sector, which is expected to become a driving force for the market during the forecast period. Robots and automation equipment are most often used in high-speed, repetitive tasks in manufacturing and other industries. The need to manufacture robots that have a higher level of sophistication and scope of application has led to research work on the development of high-precision gearboxes. The growing mechanization of manual jobs in industries is expected to result in the simultaneous growth in demand for industrial gearboxes during the forecast period.

Key Market Trend

The decline in the cost of gearboxes used in wind power generation is the key trend driving the market growth. The growth in wind power generation capacity over the past few decades has been augmented by the decline in the cost of the components used in wind turbines, including the cost of gearboxes. The cost of wind turbine gearboxes has declined considerably over the years due to enhancements in designs, optimization in raw material sourcing and supply chain, entry of new players into the market, leading to enhanced competition, and larger economies of scale due to increased demand for gearboxes. It is expected that the average global prices of wind turbine gearboxes will decline by around 5% during the period 2021-2025. These declining costs will fuel the demand for industrial gearboxes in the wind energy sector. The lower cost of gearboxes will also bring about a reduction in replacement costs, and the number of units sold will increase considerably, allowing vendors to compensate for the decline in manufacturing costs.

Key Market Challenge

The major challenge impeding market growth is the challenges in the mining and steel industry. Industrial gearboxes are used in various mining and metal manufacturing machinery, including pulverizers, ball mills, kiln drives, rolling mills, winders/rewinders, and Z mills. Multi-shaft parallel epicyclic gearboxes are commonly used in these applications. Therefore, the recession in the global mining industry is expected to have a negative impact on the market during the forecast period. China, the world's largest consumer of raw commodities, also registered a slowdown, which in turn, resulted in a decline in infrastructure construction and manufacturing activities. The construction and infrastructure sectors extensively make use of metals and minerals and account for almost half of global consumption. Many of the large mining companies reported a net loss from their operations because of the downturn. The downturn in the global commodities market, which has led to reduced investments in mining, as well as the consolidation moves in the steel industry, are expected to pose considerable challenges for the market during the forecast period.

This market analysis report also provides detailed information on other upcoming trends and challenges that will have a far-reaching effect on the market growth. The actionable insights on the trends and challenges will help companies evaluate and develop growth strategies for 2020-2024.

COVID Impact and Recovery Analysis

In 2020, the outbreak of COVID-19 hindered the growth of the market. This is attributed to the imposition of periodic lockdowns in the region to curb the spread of the disease. Owing to the lockdowns imposed, numerous manufacturing units were temporarily closed. This restricted the demand for industrial gearboxes in 2020. However, as the regional governments announced the lifting of lockdown restrictions, economic activities were propelled in the region from Q3 2020. Numerous industries such as steel manufacturing and oil and gas have resumed their manufacturing activities. Thus, the rising end-user segments such as the industrial and agriculture sectors will boost the demand for industrial gearboxes in the region during the forecast period.
