As automation increases, the demand for hydraulic ironworker machines is likely to rise, driven by improvements in productivity, versatility, energy efficiency, and a reduction in operator fatigue. For example, in September 2023, the International Federation of Robotics, based in Germany, highlighted significant progress in robotics technologies. Their latest World Robotics Report revealed that global factories installed 553,052 new industrial robots in 2022, representing a 5% increase from the previous year. Regionally, Asia accounted for 73% of these installations, with Europe and the Americas contributing 15% and 10%, respectively. Thus, the rising adoption of automation is driving the growth of the hydraulic ironworker machine market.

Key players in the hydraulic ironworker machine market are directing their efforts toward developing innovative offerings such as robust industrial-grade hydraulic press systems to maintain their competitive edge. An industrial-grade hydraulic press is a heavy-duty machine utilizing hydraulic force to compress, shape, or rectify materials. For example, Scotchman Industries Inc., a US-based metal fabrication machinery and equipment manufacturer, introduced the PressPro 110W hydraulic press in September 2022. This American-made hydraulic press caters to industrial-grade tasks such as fabrication, bending, forming, straightening, assembly, maintenance, testing, and quality control. Its construction integrates an industrial-grade hydraulic system with a robust all-steel frame, ensuring durability, strength, and extended service life. The PressPro 110W shop press is designed for precise pressing with features such as movable ram cylinders, a pressure regulator, three ram speeds, lateral movement capability, intuitive joystick operation, and standard V-blocks.

In May 2023, Miller Industries Inc., a US-based automotive towing and recovery equipment manufacturer, completed the acquisition of Southern Hydraulic Cylinder Inc. for $17.5 million. This strategic acquisition is intended to bolster Miller Industries' supply capacity, optimize inventory levels, and address existing order backlogs. Southern Hydraulic Cylinder Inc., a US-based custom hydraulic cylinder manufacturer, specializes in producing hydraulic components integral to hydraulic systems used in hydraulic ironworker machines.

The hydraulic ironworker machine market consists of sales of computer numerical control (CNC) ironworkers, mechanical ironworker machines, and standard ironworker machines. Values in this market are ‘factory gate’ values, that is the value of goods sold by the manufacturers or creators of the goods, whether to other entities (including downstream manufacturers, wholesalers, distributors, and retailers) or directly to end customers. The value of goods in this market includes related services sold by the creators of the goods.

A hydraulic ironworker machine stands as a versatile industrial tool primarily utilized in metalworking and fabrication processes. Tailored for cutting metal sheets and structural components, this machine operates through hydraulic systems, ensuring precise and efficient execution of tasks.

Hydraulic ironworker machines come in two main types such as single-cylinder hydraulic and double-cylinder hydraulic. The single-cylinder hydraulic system employs a singular hydraulic cylinder to generate mechanical motion or force through fluid pressure. These machines offer a range of functions, including punching, shearing, bending, notching, and pressing. Operations can be automatic or semi-automatic, catering to various industry needs such as aerospace, oil and gas, metallurgy, automotive, and food and beverages, among others.
