Market
Challenges

  • The sheet metal processing industry faces significant challenges due to the volatility of raw material prices, primarily steel and aluminum. Factors such as supply chain disruptions, geopolitical tensions, and fluctuating demand from industries like automotive, construction, and aerospace impact these prices. For instance, the World Bank predicts a 2% rise in
    aluminum prices in 2024 and a further 4% increase in 2025. Higher raw material costs increase production expenses for manufacturers, potentially leading to reduced profit margins and increased equipment prices for customers. In a competitive market, this may decrease demand or push customers towards lower-cost alternatives. Moreover, rising material costs can limit smaller companies' ability to invest in advanced technologies, hindering their competitiveness. Thus, the sheet metal processing equipment market's growth will be significantly influenced by the price fluctuations of essential raw materials.
  • The Sheet Metal Processing Equipment market faces several challenges in various industries. In automotive OEMs, manufacturing precision is crucial for
    vehicle design. Advanced machinery like punch cutting equipment, forming equipment, and joining equipment are essential. However, aging machinery and the need for automation pose challenges. Robotics and IIoT are key solutions. In consumer electronics, thin sheets of materials like aluminum, brass, silver, stainless steel, carbon steel, and high strength alloys require cutting and bending. Laser cutting and waterjet technologies are popular. In contrast, automation is vital for industries like energy generation, where wind turbines, solar panels, batteries, and metal products are fabricated using CNC cutters, plate rolls, drilling, polishing, stamping, and hand-held plasma torches. The market must adapt to meet the demands of electric vehicles (EVs) and mechanical applications.
