Metalworking Machinery Manufacturing in the US industry analysis

The Metalworking Machinery Manufacturing industry focuses on producing power-operated tools and machine accessories for finishing or shaping metal parts, serving various sectors, including motor vehicle parts manufacturers. The industry has faced hurdles because of several factors impacting its growth. Fluctuations in industrial production, shifts in private investment in metalworking machinery and changing demands within the automobile and parts manufacturing sectors have contributed to these challenges. Metalworking Machinery Manufacturing industry revenue has inched downward at a CAGR of 0.6% over the past five years and is expected to total $36.7 billion in 2024, when revenue will fall by an estimated 0.7%. Profit has dropped over the past five years because of rising purchases and miscellaneous fees.

Trends and Insights

  • The price decline of steel after its 2021 surge reduced manufacturers' revenue. Since steel is a crucial input for the industry, its lower cost means manufacturers earn less, as high prices typically allow them to increase revenue by passing costs downstream.
  • Supply chain disruptions weakened demand for construction and automotive products, causing significant setbacks. However, with the normalization of operations, demand from these critical markets has resumed, signaling recovery and stabilization of the affected industries.
  • The Great Lakes region hosts key manufacturing hubs, notably the automotive industry, enhancing the strategic position of metalworking machinery companies. Its proximity to Canada ensures efficient trade routes with a vital economic partner, boosting business opportunities.
  • The industry's fragmented nature stems from the diverse needs of various downstream markets. Companies of different sizes find success by catering to these unique demands, allowing them to specialize in narrow, highly focused market segments.
