Market Overview:
The global rail components 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 railway transportation across the globe and the growing need for modernization and upgradation of railway infrastructure. The global rail components market is segmented on the basis of type, application, and region. On the basis of type, it is divided into bogie, engine, and other components. The bogie segment accounts for a major share in terms of revenue in 2017 owing to its high demand in locomotives and freight cars across different regions globally. By application, it is classified into OEMs (original equipment manufacturers) and aftermarket segments. The OEMs segment dominates this market owing to heavy investments by various governments worldwide in upgrading their railway infrastructure with new technologies & equipment’s .Regionally speaking, North America leads this market followed by Europe due to large-scale replacement activities being carried out in these regions as part of modernization programs undertaken by various governments .
Product Definition:
Rail Components are the metal parts of a railroad track, including the rails and fasteners. Rail Components are important because they provide a surface for train wheels to roll on and keep trains from falling off the tracks.
Bogie:
Bogie is a device used in railway components such as rail wheels, axles and trucks to provide them with stability. It helps in maintaining the balance of the vehicle and prevents it from being pushed or pulled out of line. The primary function of a bogie is to transfer the load between two wheels; however, it also provides suspension support for elastic tires by mounting springs or airbags under its frame.
Engine:
The engine is a power source used to convert the energy stored in the rail vehicle into kinetic energy. The engine forms an integral part of any rail system and hence, it has to be selected as per requirements depending on wheel load, speed and grade. The selection depends on factors such as power required for a particular application, durability & life span of the product along with efficiency & cost-effectiveness.
Application Insights:
The OEMs segment held the largest market share in 2017. The major rail component manufacturers use OEM manufacturing to produce railway vehicles and equipment for their respective end-use markets. For instance, Bombardier Transportation uses its own facilities to manufacture its products and then supplies them to various countries around the world through a separate order channel known as direct sales.
OEMs have been increasingly using social media platforms such as YouTube, Facebook and Instagram to promote their products among consumers who are often looking for unbiased product reviews before purchasing any related goods from anywhere across the globe. Rail companies have also been utilizing these platforms extensively by uploading videos of train operations that include technical specifications, features & benefits of using different components manufactured by different companies along with an explanation about how they work together or not together at all.
Regional Analysis:
The European market held the largest share in 2017 owing to the presence of major rail component manufacturers such as Adtranz, Siemens, Bombardier and Alstom. The region is expected to maintain its dominance over the forecast period due to increasing government investments in high-speed rail infrastructure projects. For instance, Germany has set a target of having 1 million electric vehicles by 2020 on top of having operationalized nearly 40% of its total ICE 3 (Intercity-Express) trains with an aim toward achieving carbon neutral operations by 2050.
Asia Pacific is projected to be one of the fastest growing regional markets from 2018 to 2030 owing both interior and exterior WCM usage for passenger cars and heavy commercial vehicles across emerging economies including China, India Japan among others. Growing automotive production coupled with stringent regulations regarding fuel emissions are expected drive product demand over this period.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for rail transportation in developing countries
- Growing urbanization and industrialization
- Development of high-speed railways
- Proliferation of electric and hybrid trains
- Expansion of freight transport
