The rolling mill and other metalworking machinery market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $40.18 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.8%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to growth in electric vehicle manufacturing, rising infrastructure development projects, increasing demand for lightweight metal components, adoption of smart manufacturing practices, modernization of aging metalworking facilities. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing adoption of automated rolling mill systems, rising integration of digital control and monitoring solutions, growing demand for energy efficient metalworking machinery, expansion of high precision cold rolling technologies, increasing focus on flexible and multi product metal processing.
The increasing demand for steel is set to be the driving force behind the growth of the rolling mill and other metalworking machinery market in the foreseeable future. Steel, a versatile alloy primarily composed of iron and carbon with minor alloying elements, plays a pivotal role in various industries due to its unique combination of strength, durability, and adaptability. Rolling mills are indispensable in the steel industry as they are instrumental in transforming steel ingots or billets into diverse shapes and forms, including sheets, plates, rods, and structural sections. For example, data from the World Steel Association, a Belgium-based trade association, reveals that steel demand is expected to experience a notable rebound of 2.3%, reaching a total of 1.82 billion metric tons (Mt) in the near future. Additionally, steel demand is projected to exhibit further growth, increasing by 1.7% to a total of 1.85 billion metric tons (Mt) by 2024. Hence, the surging demand for steel is the primary driver of growth in the rolling mill and other metalworking machinery market.
Leading companies in the rolling mill and other metalworking machinery market are concentrating on developing advanced solutions, such as state-of-the-art automation systems, to improve operational efficiency and safety. Automation systems combine level 1 and model-based level 2 control functions, ergonomic operator interfaces, and digital commissioning using a plant’s digital twin to optimize production, reduce downtime, and ensure high reliability. For example, in July 2025, SMS Group, a Germany-based metallurgical plant and mechanical engineering company, initiated a modernization project for the cold rolling mill at thyssenkrupp Electrical Steel (tkES) in Gelsenkirchen. The upgraded system features X-Pact Embedded controllers, a high-speed EtherCAT I/O system, and virtualized IT infrastructure. It includes ergonomic control pulpits, the X-Pact Vision HMI for effective operator guidance, and comprehensive maintenance, diagnostics, and troubleshooting tools. The master controller coordinates rolling processes and ensures seamless integration between automation levels and safety systems. The project also incorporates rigorous pre-optimization via X-Pact Plug & Work integration tests and thorough testing of independent safety control functions to enhance reliability and shorten commissioning time. This initiative strengthens plant availability, safety, and production capacity while providing long-term lifecycle support.
In August 2025, GMH Gruppe, a Germany-based provider of steel production, forging, and metalworking solutions, acquired Buderus Edelstahl GmbH’s business units for an undisclosed sum. Through this acquisition, GMH Gruppe aims to expand its product portfolio and reinforce its position as a European leader in tool steel by integrating Buderus’s hot rolling mill, mechanical processing capabilities, and heat-treatment operations, supporting long-term supply stability and access to new market segments. Buderus Edelstahl is a Germany-based provider of high-quality rolled steel products, mechanical processing services, and thermal treatment for complex steel components, with operations closely linked to hot rolling mill applications.
