Market Overview:
The global linear guide rail market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The ball guide rail segment is expected to hold a comparatively larger share in the global market, which accounts for about 69%. The precision electronic machinery application segment is expected to hold the largest share in terms of revenue in the global linear guide rail market during the forecast period. Asia Pacific is estimated to be the fastest-growing region in terms of revenue growth during the forecast period.
Product Definition:
A linear guide rail is a type of bearing that helps to keep motion in one plane. Linear guide rails are often used in conjunction with linear bearings to create a smooth surface for objects to move along. They are commonly found in manufacturing and robotics applications where precision is important.
Ball Guide Rail:
Ball guide rail is a device that is used in the linear guide rail industry to keep the balls from walking out of the rails. It works on the principle of centrifugal force created by spinningthe ball around an axis, which keeps it tight againstthe inner surface of rail. The main function performed by this product includes keeping balls in place and preventing them from falling off or moving out of position while filling or replacing individual batteries inside vape pen devices.
Roller Guide Rail:
The roller guide rail is a device used in linear guides to provide resistance against the movement of the work piece. It is fixed along with the other components in a stationary position and its movement can be blocked by another work piece or an obstruction. The roller guide rail has cylindrical surfaces that are concentric with each other and these surfaces are mounted on two parallel bars, which form four rollers between them.
Application Insights:
Precision electronic machinery was the largest application segment in 2017. The global demand for linear guides is increasing due to their use in precision electronic machinery, which requires a high level of accuracy and consistency. Precision equipment includes various components and systems that are used in manufacturing or processing applications where small variances can lead to substantial costs or consequences. Linear guides are widely used for positioning components on printed circuit boards (PCB) during testing, assembly and packaging operations as they provide smooth movement with low friction coefficient over a wide range of travel distances.
Automation equipment is expected to be the fastest-growing application segment from 2018 to 2030 owing to increasing adoption across several industries such as food & beverage, medical devices, chemical & pharmaceuticals among others. Automation equipment uses linear guide rails made up of ball bearings along with an aluminum rail that slides on top of it providing smooth movement over a long distance without any friction loss resulting into increased production rates leading to higher market penetration across regions globally.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific is expected to be the fastest-growing market, expanding at a CAGR of XX% over the forecast period. The growth can be attributed to increasing investments in automation and rising demand for high-quality metal cutting tools in this region. Moreover, growing industrialization and rapid urbanization are also anticipated to drive regional product demand over the forecast period.
The Asia Pacific was followed by Europe that accounted for a revenue share of about 16%. The growth can be attributed to developed economies such as Germany, France, Italy and U.K.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand from the automotive and transportation industry for linear guide rails as they are used in various applications such as door systems, seat adjustment, sunroofs, and sliding roofs.
- Growing demand for miniaturization in electronics industry is fueling the growth of linear guide rail market as these rails are used in various small devices such as medical devices, 3D printers, and robotics.
- Rising investments in research and development activities by major players to develop new products is expected to fuel the growth of linear guide rail market over the forecast period.
- Growing popularity of automation across different industries is projected to boost the demand for linear guide rails during the forecast period.
