“Increasing demand for metal stamped components in the automotive and medical end-use industries are fuelling the growth of the metal stamping market.”
The metal stamping market is projected to grow from USD 213.8 billion in 2023 to USD 257.1 billion by 2028, at a CAGR of 3.7% during the forecast period. The growing population, rising per capita income, rapid industrialization, and infrastructural development have led to the growth of the automotive and construction industry, thereby driving the demand for metal stamped components.
By Process, Blanking process accounted for the highest CAGR during the forecast period
Out of the five process types (embossing, blanking, bending, coining, flanging), blanking has the largest market share and is the fastest growing segment during the forecast period. This process is automated, large quantities can be produced quickly and efficiently. Furthermore, because the process only removes material from the sheet or coil’s edges, it produces very little waste, making it an environmentally friendly manufacturing method. The blanking process is an essential tool for metal stamping manufacturers, allowing them to quickly and efficiently produce high-quality, uniform parts. Some of the major applications of the blanking process are making medals, computer parts, precision tools, automotive parts, cutlery, and power tools.
By Material, Steel material accounted for the highest CAGR during the forecast period
Out of the three material (steel, aluminum, copper), steel has the largest market share and is the fastest growing segment during the forecast period. Market growth is driven by the rising demand for metal-stamped steel products in automobiles, appliances, and electronics. Technological advancements have resulted in new steel alloys and manufacturing methods that improve strength, durability, and cost-effectiveness. As a result, manufacturers increasingly incorporate steel into their products, which may drive demand in the metal stamping market.
By Material thickness, ≤0.4 mm accounted for the highest CAGR during the forecast period
Out of the two material thickness types (≤0.4 mm and >0.4 mm), ≤0.4 mm is the fastest growing segment during the forecast period. .≤0.4 mm delivers high strength, flexibility, and precision to create complex and precise parts. Thin-gauge materials are used in various metal stamping applications, including producing parts like battery contacts, circuit board components, and other small, precision components for electronic devices such as laptops, smartphones, and tablets. They find demand in the automotive industry, especially for interior components such as door panels, dashboard trim, and other decorative elements; the aerospace industry, for lightweight aircraft components such as ducts, housings, and brackets; and the medical industry, for surgical instruments, implants, and other medical devices.
