Drivers

Automation and Technological Development is Bolstering demand for Metal Cutting Tools

• The demand for factory automation is increasing the use of smart manufacturing technologies in production processes and product development. This is due to advantages such as increased productivity, product quality, and ease of dealing with labour shortages. Manufacturing and machinery operations will see a paradigm shift away from traditional methods and toward intelligent, connected, and streamlined machine systems. Manufacturers can benefit from operational savings, efficient energy usage, enhanced and automatic virtual metrology, and improved human-machine interfaces by implementing Industry 4.0 solutions. Quality assurance is critical in the manufacturing industry and is directly related to the equipment used. The implementation of Industry 4.0 solutions has brought about real-time quality assurance via an Automated Virtual Metrology (AVM) system. Real-time quality assurance is also expected to increase cutting machine tool penetration.

Restraints

High Cost to Hinder Trade of Metal Cutting Tools

• Many manufacturing companies are focusing on the automation of manufacturing operations within their facilities in order to reduce labour costs, improve productivity, and increase process optimization in their overall operations. However, the entire process necessitates the purchase, installation, and regular maintenance of all types of machinery costs alot. However, a severe cash crunch during and after the pandemic has created a significant impediment to market growth. Furthermore, difficulties in cross-border trade following the Ukraine-Russia conflict have exacerbated problems with raw material procurement, as well as increased market uncertainties and disruptions.
