Market Overview:
The global helicopter blades market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in the market can be attributed to the increasing demand for helicopters for civil and commercial applications, and also for military purposes. The use of advanced materials such as carbon composites and hybrid composites in the manufacturing of helicopter blades is also contributing to the growth of this market. The global helicopter blades market by type is segmented into carbon composites and hybrid composites. The carbon composite segment is expected to account for a larger share of the global market than the hybrid composite segment during the forecast period. This can be attributed to its superior properties such as high strength-to-weight ratio, corrosion resistance, thermal stability, and low maintenance requirements. The global helicopter blades market by application is divided into military helicopters, civil & commercial helicopters, and others (training aircrafts etc.).
Product Definition:
Helicopter blades are rotors attached to a helicopter that allow it to fly. The blades generate lift and provide directional control.
Carbon Composites:
Carbon composites are materials that comprise carbon and other organic compounds. The most common types of composite materials include glass fiber reinforced plastic (GFRP), aramid fiber reinforced plastic (AFRP), and polyphenylene sulfide (PPS). Carbon composites have a wide range of applications in various industries such as automotive, aerospace & defense, marine, wind energy, electronics manufacturing among others.
Hybrid Composites:
Hybrid composites are a combination of different materials which are used to reduce the overall weight of the helicopter and increase its performance. The material used in hybrid composites is mostly steel, aluminum or titanium. These materials when combined together provide better strength and durability than any single material can offer. Also, these materials have a very high strength to weight ratio which makes them ideal for use in helicopters where agility is important factor for survival.
Application Insights:
The military helicopters segment dominated the global market in 2017, accounting for a revenue share of over 60%. The growth can be attributed to increasing defense expenditure by countries such as China and India. Furthermore, presence of major military bases in these countries increases the demand for helicopters. For instance, Indian Army has more than 70% of its force concentrated in just 4 states namely Assam Pradesh, Himachal Pradesh, Jammu & Kashmir and Uttarakhand which creates a high demand for security related services thereby driving the industry growth across North America and Europe.
Civil applications include air taxi/charter operations as well as firefighting aircraft among others. Helicopter types such as single-engine piston-driven helicopters are used mainly for commercial purposes owing to their low cost structure along with good maneuverability that helps them perform aerial stunts known as aerobatics which boosts product sales significantly among other applications including medical evacuations or police missions.
Regional Analysis:
North America accounted for the largest revenue share in 2017. The region is expected to maintain its dominance over the forecast period owing to increasing defense budget and stringent regulations by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regarding carbon-emitting aircraft. Europe also held a significant market share in 2017, due to high demand from countries such as Germany, France, Italy and U.K.
Asia Pacific is projected to be one of fastest growing regions during the forecast period owing to increasing number of helicopter accidents that occur due to bad weather conditions or because of human error.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for helicopters for civilian and military applications
- Growing popularity of helicopter tourism
- Rising number of air ambulance services worldwide
- Proliferation of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) or drones
- Technological advancements in helicopter blades design and materials
