Waterjet Cutting Machine Sector: Growth Drivers and Challenges

Growth Drivers

  • Rising Need to Reduce Food Wastage– Globally, around 1.3 billion of food is wasted every year, which accounts for one-third of the total produce. Owing to higher food wastage the need for waterjet cutting becomes important since it allows for precise cuts and portioning thus preventing the wastage of food.
  • Rise in the Number of Wind Energy Projects– In 2021, global offshore wind installations reached a new high of 17,398 MW, bringing the total capacity currently operational to 50,623 MW. A waterjet cutting machine is used for the manufacturing of wind turbines, which are made up of carbon fiber tape or fiberglass.
  • Rising Investment in Defense Sector- In 2021, total worldwide military spending grew by 0.7% in real terms to USD 2113 billion. Higher investment leads to the production of better defense equipment, waterjet is used in prototyping the equipment and makes necessary personalization.

Challenges

  • High Operational Costs- On the top of upfront cost of the waterjet cutting machine, the operation cost of the equipment is also very high. The operational costs include consumables such as maintenance, and energy consumption. Moreover, the operational cost is an ongoing cost and adds up over time.
  • Instances of Downtime
  • Hard to achieve accuracy

Waterjet Cutting Machine Segmentation

Waterjet (Abrasive, Non-Abrasive)

The abrasive segment is estimated to hold around 60% share of the global waterjet cutting machine market in the year 2037. The growth of the segment can be attributed to the need for high accuracy while cutting the materials. In comparison to other types of waterjet and other technologies, such as plasma cutting and others, abrasive waterjet cutting machines offer a high level of precision, enabling the carving of complete and intricate designs. Moreover, the abrasive one does not generate heat while being used.

End User (Automotive, Aerospace, Mining, Electronics, Metal Fabrication, Food & Beverage)

The automotive segment is expected to garner a significant share of around 38% in the year 2037. Modern automobiles are built using a wide range of advanced materials, such as advanced plastic, metals, glass, and composites. Waterjet cutting machine is highly suitable for the automotive industry as it provides high precision with all these materials. The typical automobile contains 30,000 parts, nearly one-third of which are made of plastic, that includes, handles, dashboards, panels, seating, cable insulation, and others.
