Construction encompasses the processes of building, modifying, repairing, and demolishing structures and infrastructure for both residential and commercial projects. This surge in construction is largely driven by increased urbanization, the rising demand for housing, and the need for commercial spaces. Metal-forming machine tools offer tailored solutions for various construction needs, enhancing the strength and durability of metal components. Their automation capabilities improve efficiency and production rates, leading to timely and cost-effective project completion. For example, the Office for National Statistics reported in November 2023 that new construction activities in the UK saw an increase of £18.16 billion ($19.96 million) in 2022, with private sector projects growing by 16.8% and public sector projects rising by 13.1%. Thus, the increase in construction activities is fueling growth in the metal-forming machine tool market.

Leading companies in the metal-forming machine tools market are concentrating on developing advanced technologies, such as digital sheet forming (DSF) technology, to enhance efficiency and speed up production processes. Digital sheet forming (DSF) technology is an innovative manufacturing method that utilizes digital tools to optimize the production of sheet metal parts, offering greater precision and faster production cycles compared to traditional techniques. For instance, in September 2022, Desktop Metal, a US-based technology firm specializing in 3D printing systems, introduced the Figur G15. This machine features a maximum forming area of 1450 x 1000 mm and can process sheet metals up to 2 mm thick for steel and 2.5 mm for aluminum, with vertical withdrawal depths of up to 400 mm. The G15 significantly reduces production costs and lead times, producing parts at approximately $10 each compared to $160 with conventional stamping processes. It is particularly suited for low-volume production and prototyping in industries like automotive and aerospace, with minimal post-processing required for a high-quality surface finish.

In May 2022, Phillips Machine Tools India Pvt. Ltd., an India-based provider of manufacturing solutions, formed a partnership with JFY International. This collaboration aims to enhance metal-forming solutions for clients in India and Bangladesh by integrating JFY's advanced technologies. JFY plans to expand its regional market presence through this partnership, leveraging Phillips' infrastructure and customer service capabilities.

Metal forming machine tools are specialized equipment used to shape and deform metal into specific forms and sizes through bending, forging, and pressing processes. These tools apply mechanical forces to change the metal’s structure without removing material, aiming to produce precise, high-quality components and enabling efficient mass production with minimal waste.

The main types of metal-forming machine tools include bulk-forming, sheet-forming, powder metal-forming, and others. Bulk-forming shapes metal into larger volumes and complex forms, often used for parts requiring significant material deformation. These tools work with various raw materials, such as ferrous, non-ferrous, steel, and aluminum, and are used across multiple sectors, including automotive, manufacturing, precision engineering, construction, aerospace, and defense.
