Machining Centres Market Share

HMCs are demanded in high-production settings, while VMCs are preferred for relatively lesser complex tasks

Horizontal machining centres (HMCs) are equipped with a spindle that is installed parallel to the ground, allowing for efficient machining of large workpieces. HMCs, while relatively expensive, offer several benefits, such as superior coolant and chip control. There is also the presence of a fourth axis rotary table, permitting the operator to use tombstone type fixturing with multiple sides to produce a greater number of parts in one arrangement. These machines are ideal for heavy-duty machining operations and are commonly used in industries such as aerospace, automotive, and construction.

Vertical machining centres (VMCs), on the other hand, are equipped with a spindle that is installed perpendicular to the ground, allowing for efficient machining of smaller workpieces. As per machining centres market analysis, these machines are commonly used to manufacture engineering parts, medical devices, and electronic components. Companies like FANUC offer solutions like ROBODRILL for VMC applications. The modern solution offers better quality and precision at attractive hourly rates.

Distinct uses of machining centres across industrial sectors is likely to boost market growth

Machining centres are extensively used in production of aerospace, medical parts, automotive, power generation, hardware, wood processing, and home appliances.
