Market Overview:
The global self-lubricating bearings 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 self-lubricating bearings in various applications, such as automotive, heavy industrial machinery, general engineering, aerospace & defense and others. Metal is the most commonly used type of material for manufacturing self-lubricating bearings. However, composites are gaining popularity due to their superior properties such as high strength and stiffness coupled with low weight.
Product Definition:
Self-lubricating bearings are bearings that can lubricate themselves with a minimal amount of external lubrication. This is accomplished by incorporating a bearing material that has self-lubricating properties into the bearing design. The use of self-lubricating bearings can result in significant reductions in maintenance costs and downtime, as well as longer bearing life.
Metal:
Metal is a key component in the self-lubricating bearings market. It provides several benefits such as corrosion resistance, high strength, and low maintenance. Metal based bearings are used in heavy equipment such as cranes and construction machinery due to their higher load carrying capacity.
The metal content of the bearing depends on its application which includes aerospace & defense, automotive & transportation, industrial machinery/construction equipment among others.
Composites:
Composites are materials that are composed of two or more elements connected by an internal bond. In the case of fiber composites, the fibers themselves may be coated with a polymer resin to form a laminate and then baked to bind the fibers together. The most common types of composite used in bearings include glass-fiber reinforced plastic (GRP), carbon fiber, aramid fiber, and hybrid composites.
Application Insights:
The automotive application segment accounted for the largest revenue share of over 30% in 2017. The global self-lubricating bearings market is expected to witness significant growth owing to rising demand for lightweight and greases with better performance at a lower cost. Automotive manufacturers are focusing on reducing vehicle weight, which results in higher usage of these bearings as they reduce the overall car weight.
Automotive applications include passenger cars, light commercial vehicles (LCVs), heavy trucks and buses as well as off-highway LCVs & trucks that serve cities or areas with low traffic density such as India or China. In addition to this, increasing penetration of electric vehicles is also expected to drive the demand globally over the forecast period due to increased efficiency and reduced emissions coupled with improved performance offered by electric motors compared to their combustion engine counterparts.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific is expected to be the largest and fastest-growing regional market over the forecast period. The growth can be attributed to increasing industrialization, coupled with rapid urbanization in emerging economies such as India and China. In addition, rising disposable income levels are anticipated to fuel demand for consumer goods including automobiles, which will further propel industry expansion.
The Asia Pacific region accounted for a share of more than 30% of global revenue in 2017 owing to its large size as well as high growth potential on account of growing population and industrial activities across various sectors such as automotive, construction equipment etc.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand from the automotive and aerospace industries
- Growing awareness about the benefits of self-lubricating bearings over traditional bearings
- Rising demand for lightweight and energy-efficient components in various industries
- Technological advancements that have led to the development of more efficient and durable self-lubricating bearings
- Growing popularity of 3D printing technology, which is helping to reduce manufacturing costs for self-lubricating bearings
