Automatic Bending Machine Market Report 2026

The automatic bending machine market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $2.32 billion in 2025 to $2.45 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.5%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to growth of automotive and aerospace manufacturing, increasing demand for precision metal components, expansion of sheet metal fabrication facilities, adoption of programmable bending technologies, improvements in machine control accuracy.

The automatic bending machine market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.98 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing investments in smart manufacturing equipment, rising adoption of electric and hybrid bending machines, expansion of automation in metal fabrication shops, growing demand for complex component geometries, increasing focus on production flexibility. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing adoption of cnc-controlled bending machines, rising integration of robotic loading and unloading, growing demand for high-precision metal forming, expansion of multi-axis and servo-electric bending systems, enhanced focus on repeatability and production efficiency.

The increasing adoption of automation in the manufacturing sector is expected to propel the growth of the automatic bending machine market going forward. Automation in manufacturing refers to using technology such as robotics and computer systems to replace or enhance human labor in tasks such as production and assembly, aiming to increase efficiency, productivity, and consistency while reducing costs and errors. The increasing adoption of automation in manufacturing is driven by improvements in productivity, cost savings through reduced labor and operational expenses, and the ability to maintain consistent quality and safety standards in production processes. Automatic bending machines are crucial in enhancing automation within the manufacturing sector. These machines are utilized for bending various materials, such as metal sheets, tubes, and profiles, with precision and efficiency. For instance, in September 2024, according to the International Federation of Robotics, a Germany-based non-profit organization, global industrial robot adoption continued to accelerate in 2023, with annual installations surpassing 541,000 units for the third consecutive year and driving the worldwide operational stock to 4.3 million robots, marking a 10% increase and bringing the total number of robots in use to well over four million globally. Therefore, the increasing adoption of automation in the manufacturing sector is driving the growth of the automatic bending machine market.

Key players in the automatic bending machine sector are focused on innovation, developing products such as XXL (extra, extra-large) bending machines to meet the rising demand for handling oversized components. These specialized machines are designed to bend substantial components beyond the capacity of standard equipment. For example, Trumpf Inc. introduced the TruBend Series 8000 in February 2023, a bending machine tailored for XXL parts that enhances efficiency in handling large workpieces with significant box heights. The machine offers various optional features aimed at optimizing the bending process for heavy parts.

In June 2023, MNM Industries Inc., a US-based producer of containers, expanded its capabilities by acquiring Criterion Machinery Pty Ltd., a company specializing in automatic tube bending machines. This strategic move aims to broaden MNM Industries' product portfolio and manufacturing capabilities, reinforcing its market presence and ability to offer comprehensive solutions to customers.
