The global precision ball screw market was valued at $1,571.0 million in 2019, and is projected to reach $2,043.9 million by 2027, registering a CAGR of 5.1% from 2020 to 2027. Precision ball screws are mechanical elements used for transmission of rotational to linear motion. It is an improved version of conventional acme lead screws, in terms of accuracy, precision, and efficiency. It has high efficiency (greater than 90%) in motion transmission as it converts sliding friction into rolling friction. Precision ball screws find extensive applications in the semiconductor industry, medical devices, and aerospace industry, owing to its high load bearing capacity, positional accuracy, and repeatability. In addition, it enables cost and weight savings in overall design of a mechanical system.
Growth in semiconductor, aviation & aerospace, and healthcare industries is anticipated to provide potential opportunities for key players operating in the market. However, fluctuations in raw material prices such as steel and iron affect profitability of manufacturers, which restrains growth of the precision ball screw market. Moreover, rise in demand for robots, especially surgical robots, and aerospace equipment is expected to offer growth opportunities for precision ball screws in the future.
The global precision ball screw market is segmented into type, application, and region. Depending on type, the market is divided into ground precision ball screw and rolled precision ball screw. On the basis of application, it is categorized into semiconductor, medical, laboratory, and others. Region wise, it is analyzed across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and LAMEA.
