Market Overview

The global cold heading machine market size was valued at USD 3,267.40 million in 2021. It is projected to reach USD 5335.53 million by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 5.60% during the forecast period (2022-2030). 

A method for progressively molding metal into net-shaped or nearly so components is called cold heading, often known as cold forming. The cold heading machine shapes apart from a slug initially cut from a continuous coil of wire material using a series of solid hammers and dies. This technique results in little to no waste, much lower material costs, and equal volumes for the initial slug and the completed product. The net volume does not change since the material is molded into the die rather than being sliced from the blank. The global cold heading machine market is expanding due to rising electrical industry demand and other considerations.

Segmental Analysis

The global cold heading machine market is segmented by technique and end-user industry.

Based on technique, the global cold heading machine market is bifurcated into upsetting and extrusion.

The upsetting segment is the highest contributor to the market and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.90% during the forecast period. Metal pieces can be formed at room temperature using a multi-step procedure called cold heading manufacture. In contrast to other metal manufacturing methods, hammers and dies are employed rapidly to create the metal without heating it. The material is typically forced into the die using two distinct methods: upsetting and extrusion. The punch block in the upset process pushes the metal out of the dice to create a more giant head than the starting blank. The most popular and fundamental method of cold heading used nowadays is upsetting. When the beginning diameter is increased while the slug's height is decreased, an upset is created.

Another cold heading method is extrusion. Extrusions can be divided into two categories: forward extrusions and backward extrusions. Forward extrusions reduce the material's width and length by forcing it through an aperture with a decreasing diameter. Before this form of extrusion begins, the beginning material may be confined in the tooling entirely or partially. The material enclosed in a die or punch insert is forced to flow around a penetrating punch or pin by backward extrusions. Typically, this extrusion is used to create a void or cavity inside something. In order to make pieces, the cold extrusion process often relies on a large volume transfer of metal and depends on the mold to manage the metal flow. China has the capacity to design and produce a range of tonnage extrusion presses.

Based on the end-user industry, the global cold heading machine market is bifurcated into automotive, electrical and electronics, industrial, aerospace and defense, and others.

The automotive segment owns the highest market share and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.30% during the forecast period. The demand for electric cars is primarily driven by shifting pollution rules and stringent regulations. The market is also being driven by consumers' increased choice to refrain from purchasing cars with engines that produce more pollutants than electric ones. Automobiles will soon have even more electronic components because of recent advances in automotive electronics and the rise of electric vehicles (EVs). This means that cars will likely have a greater variety of cold-headed car parts during the forecast period.

It is anticipated that the electronics sector will expand moderately. Future market growth is anticipated to be aided by a rise in demand for new technical items. The LAMEA region is expected to be a sizable market for e-commerce, particularly the Gulf region, which is expected to have rapid growth over the forecast period. The usage of electronics and appliances in the area may rise. The largest electrical and electronics sector in Europe is located in Germany, with 11% of Germany's total industrial production. These factors are anticipated to drive market growth during the forecast period.

  • Impact of covid-19

    The automotive industry is critical to the economy's growth. However, during the second and third quarters of 2020, the COVID-19 outbreak impacted the whole automotive supply chain, affecting new car sales in FY 2020.

    South America is most affected by COVID-19, with Brazil leading the way, followed by Ecuador, Chile, Peru, and Argentina. South America's government (SAM) has taken a number of steps to protect its citizens and stem the spread of COVID-19. South America is expected to have fewer export revenues as commodity prices fall and export volumes fall, particularly to China, Europe, and the United States, which are all significant trading partners. The manufacturing industry, especially automotive manufacturing, has been damaged by containment measures in various South American countries. Due to the pandemic, major automotive manufacturers have also temporarily halted manufacturing in the region as a cost-cutting move. Furthermore, the automobile disc brake industry has been significantly affected in 2020 due to a lack of raw materials and supply chain disruption.

    The Automotive Brake System control module of a vehicle is meant to alert the driver with a warning light if the system fails. The module itself is rarely defective; instead, the sensors or the wiring to the sensors are frequently defective. The most typical cause of dysfunction is when the Automotive Brake System is contaminated with particles or metal shavings. There is no signal continuity when sensor wiring is destroyed. Brake fluid becomes contaminated in corrosive situations, and the hydraulic unit fails to function.
