Market Overview:
The global rail grinder market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% from 2018 to 2030. The growth in the global rail grinder market can be attributed to the increasing demand for ballastless track and rising investments in railway infrastructure across the globe. Switch grinders are expected to account for the largest share of the global rail grinder market in 2018, followed by main line grinders. Asia Pacific is expected to be the fastest growing region during the forecast period, owing to rapid industrialization and urbanization in countries such as China and India.
Product Definition:
Rail grinders are large machines that use grinding stones to smooth out irregularities in railroad tracks. This is important because it helps ensure trains run smoothly, without getting stuck on bumps or other track imperfections.
Switch:
The switch is a device that controls the power supply to the machine. It's an important component in any grinding equipment as it protects the machine from damage and ensures smooth functioning. The working principle of switch is based on electrical current flow through insulated contacts when activated, it provides power to start or continue working of motor.
In rail grinder market, there are two types of switches namely mechanical and electrical switches both work on similar principal but vary in price range depending upon its application.
Main Line:
The main line is the core of rail grinding equipment. It is a continuous metal track that runs alongside the rail tracks and guides the wheels of rolling stock. The main line consists of two or more rails, connected by a center-point device known as an "electric switch".
There are different types of switches used in main lines such as block, level, and interlock switches.
Application Insights:
The ballastless track application segment dominated the global rail grinder market in 2017. This can be attributed to increasing demand for high-speed trains and rapid transit systems, especially in emerging economies of Asia Pacific and Latin America. In addition, the segment is expected to witness significant growth owing to growing demand for high-quality railway infrastructure across developed countries of North America and Europe.
Ballast track application is projected register a CAGR of XX% over the forecast period due to rising investments by governments in developing new lines as well as expanding existing railways networks within their borders at a domestic level. Furthermore, increasing number of projects involving laying railway tracks on former busy roads or highways are expected to drive industry expansion over the coming years.
Regional Analysis:
Europe dominated the global rail grinder market in terms of revenue with a share of over 35.0% in 2017. This is attributed to the presence of major industry players such as Adtranz, Bombardier Transportation, Siemens Mobility Germany GmbH & Co., and Alstom Transport France S.A. Moreover, Europe has been witnessing significant growth in infrastructure development owing to which there is an increasing demand for rail equipment including rails and related products such as rail grinders for maintenance activities.
Asia Pacific regional market captured a revenue share exceeding 20.0% in 2017 owing to the growing demand from developing countries like India and China along with other Southeast Asian nations that are investing heavily on improving their railway infrastructure network at both domestic level as well as international level thereby driving product adoption over the forecast period The Middle East & Africa region is expected to grow significantly during the forecast period due to various government initiatives taken by Saudi Arabia (upgradation).
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for high-speed and efficient rail transportation
- Growing urbanization and industrialization in developing countries
- Proliferation of high-speed railways across the globe
- Rising investments in railway infrastructure by governments and transport authorities
- Technological advancements in grinding equipment that improve operational efficiency
