Market Overview:
The global linear guideway market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% from 2018 to 2030. The growth in the market can be attributed to the increasing demand for precision machining and automation across industries. Additionally, the growing demand for wire EDM machines, CNC machines, and milling machines is also contributing to the growth of the linear guideway market. The ball guide segment is expected to dominate the global linear guideway market during the forecast period owing to its high accuracy and stiffness properties. The roller guide segment is projected to grow at a higher CAGR than other segments during the forecast period as it offers low friction and long life cycle.
Product Definition:
A linear guideway is a type of track that uses a series of bearings to guide and support a moving object. Linear guideways are often used in industrial settings to move heavy objects or machines. They are also sometimes used in transportation applications, such as for moving trains or cars. Linear guideways can be either stationary or movable, and they come in a variety of shapes and sizes.
Ball Guide:
Ball guide is a device used to direct balls in rolling. It can be of various types depending upon the application requirements such as roller, cup and cone type. The ball guide plays an important role in the manufacturing process of linear guideway products such as bearings, wheels & axles, slides & rails among others.
The global market for linear guideway products is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to increasing demand from end-use industries including automotive.
Roller Guide:
The roller guide is a device that is used to position the rollers in linear guideways. It helps in maintaining the gap between the rollers and provides smooth movement of products along the guideway. The product being transported by rail-based systems, it needs some kind of positioning devices or mechanisms to keep track of where it should be positioned at any particular time.
Application Insights:
The global demand for the machines used in wire EDM applications accounted for over 40% of the overall market share in 2017. The segment is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period owing to extensive use of these machines on a global scale. Wire EDM machine uses a moving part known as an eddy current, which acts as a magnet and attracts iron out of the steel substrate, thus making it possible to create sharp edges on various substrates such as wires and bars.
CNC milling is one of the fastest growing segments due to increasing demand from end-use industries such as automotive and aerospace. CNC mills are widely preferred over other conventional machining techniques due to their ability not only provide high precision but also reduce scrap rates resulting in increased productivity per hour worked by operators.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific dominated the global market in 2017 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The region has been witnessing rapid growth in several industries, including automotive, consumer electronics, medical devices & pharmaceuticals. These factors are anticipated to drive the regional demand for metal cutting machines over the next eight years.
However, North America is expected to be one of the fastest-growing regions from 2018 to 2030 owing to a rise in investments by prominent players for research and development activities as well as new product launches across numerous industries such as aerospace & defense and wind energy generation equipment manufacturing industry. Moreover rising demand for CNC machines across various applications is also likely to spur regional growth during the forecast period.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for automation in manufacturing and logistics industry to improve efficiency and productivity
- Rising demand for transportation of goods and people in urban areas
- Development of advanced linear guideway systems with enhanced features
- Growing popularity of rail-based transit systems over traditional modes of transportation
- Proliferation of smart cities that are conducive to the adoption of advanced technologies
