Market Overview:
The global train brake lining market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The market growth can be attributed to the increasing demand for high-speed and low-speed trains across the globe. Additionally, the growing adoption of composite brake linings is also contributing to the growth of this market. However, factors such as volatility in prices of raw materials and stringent government regulations are restraining the growth of this market. On basis of type, powder metallurgy brake linings are expected to hold a major share in the global train brake lining market during 2018-2030 owing to their superior properties such as high thermal conductivity and wear resistance as compared with other types of brake linings available in the market.
Product Definition:
Train disc brake linings are a type of brake lining that is specifically designed for use in trains. They are typically made from a tough and heat-resistant material, such as asbestos, to help them withstand the high temperatures generated by braking. Their importance lies in their ability to provide a safe and effective means of slowing or stopping a train.
Powder Metallurgy:
Powder metallurgy is a technique of producing metal that uses high speed and pressure to convert raw material into fine particles. It utilizes the principle of solid-state transformation, i.e., change in solid state to liquid and then back to original form by heating followed by rapid cooling process.
Cast Iron:
Cast iron is a type of metal that is obtained from the process of melting pig iron (steel) and then removing the metal that has solidified as molten cast. It can be used in various applications such as pipes, engine blocks, cookware, machinery wheels and others. Cast iron also provides excellent resistance to abrasion & corrosion which makes it suitable for use in brake linings.
Application Insights:
The high-speed train application segment led the global train disc brake linings market in 2017 and is projected to expand at a steady CAGR from 2018 to 2030. The increasing number of high-speed trainsets in service is expected to drive the demand fortrain disc brake linings over the forecast period. In addition, growing investments by foreign players in China and Japan are likely to boost industry growth over the coming years.
Low speed train application segment was valued at USD 636 million in 2017 owing to low average speeds of conventional locomotive engines which make them difficultto stop with conventional friction materials such as metal on metal or composite discs. However,train manufacturers are increasingly using low powered diesel locomotives equipped with linear motors for increased efficiency resulting inthese segments gaining traction as well.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific dominated the global market in 2017 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The presence of high growth opportunities, low capital cost, availability of skilled labor and raw material at cheaper prices are some major factors driving regional growth. China is estimated to be one of the fastest-growing markets for train disc brake linings owing to increasing investments in railways infrastructure coupled with rising demand for intercity trains from Chinese cities as well as neighboring countries.
Europe was another significant region that accounted for a share of more than 20% in terms of revenue in 2017 on account of growing demand from high-speed trains operating companies such as Siemens AG, Alstom SA/NV and CAF Group S.A., which include Deutsche Bahn AG (Germany), SNCF (France) and Railways Company Limited (Italy).
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for safe and comfortable travel
- Growing urbanization and industrialization
- Proliferation of high-speed trains
- Development of new technologies and materials
- Rising awareness about the benefits of train disc brake linings
