The grinding machinery market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $7.58 billion in 2024 to $8.18 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to strong economic growth in emerging markets, the growth in construction activities, the growth of the aerospace industry, increased automotive production, and increased consumption of machine tools.
The grinding machinery market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $11.19 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.1%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing urbanization, the growing shipbuilding industry, and an increasing demand from the mining industry. Major trends in the forecast period include technological advancements, automation solutions, the introduction of robotic machines, IIoT (industrial Internet of things)-based industry 4 grinding solutions, product innovations, and strategic partnerships and collaborations.
The rise in industrial automation is expected to drive the growth of the grinding machinery market in the future. Industrial automation involves the control of machinery and industrial processes by autonomous systems, including robotics and computer software. As companies increasingly adopt industrial automation, the demand for grinding machinery is likely to grow, as businesses will seek new equipment compatible with automation systems. For example, in May 2023, the International Federation of Robotics, a Germany-based non-profit organization, reported that industrial robot installations in manufacturing increased by 12% in 2022, reaching 41,624 units. The automotive industry, primarily consisting of U.S., Canadian, and Mexican businesses, was the leading adopter, with 20,391 installed units - marking a 30% rise from 2021. Thus, the growth of industrial automation is expected to boost demand for grinding machinery during the forecast period.
The expanding shipbuilding industry is poised to contribute significantly to the growth of the grinding machinery market. Shipbuilding involves the manufacturing of larger vessels for military, offshore energy, or merchant fleet applications. Grinding machines find frequent use in shipbuilding applications for tasks such as weld preparation, cleaning between weld passes, and post-weld cleaning and finishing. A Congressional Budget Office analysis of the Navy’s Fiscal Year 2023 Shipbuilding Plan in the USA forecasts a total cost of shipbuilding ranging from $30 to $33 billion over the next 30 years, surpassing Navy projections by 14% to 18%. The anticipated growth in the shipbuilding industry is expected to be a driving force for the grinding machinery market.
Major companies in the grinding machinery market are increasingly focused on developing Polish grinding methods to enhance the load-bearing capacity of gears while simultaneously reducing surface roughness. This leads to lower friction and improved efficiency in transmission systems. Polish grinding methods involve advanced machining techniques aimed at enhancing the surface finish of workpieces, particularly gears and other precision components. For instance, in February 2024, Nidec Machine Tool Corporation, a Japan-based manufacturer of grinding and polishing equipment, announced the development of the world's first high-accuracy polishing method for mass-producing internal gears, which are crucial for automotive drive units and robotic joints. This innovative technique addresses challenges related to gear quality, durability, transmission efficiency, and noise performance. This advancement highlights Nidec's commitment to improving gear technology in response to the growing demands for electrification and automation.
Major companies in the grinding machinery sector are focusing on robotic grinding machines. In October 2022, Indian technology company Grind Master launched ROBOFINISH, a groundbreaking machine for the robotic grinding of large castings, setting new standards in automatic fettling and precision grinding. Grind Master's technical partnership with US-based Roberts Sinto Corporation enables the manufacture and service of machines using ROBOFINISH technology in North America.
In September 2023, Star Cutter Company, a U.S.-based manufacturer of cutting tools, acquired Tru Tech Systems for an undisclosed amount.
