Market Dynamics
According to Market Research Future (MRFR), In 2023, the market for Aluminum Die Casting Machines was estimated to be worth USD 2,217.4 million. The global Aluminum Die Casting Machine market is expected to expand at a compound yearly growth rate (CAGR) of 5.8% between 2024 and 2032, from an estimated USD 2,317.2 million in 2024 to USD 3,633.8 million by 2032.
The malleability of aluminum lends itself to die casting, also for intricate patterns. Although the initial investment requirements for aluminum die-casting machines are high, demand is growing, particularly for specially shaped aluminum parts. Aluminum die-casting machines use less power than steel die-casting machines, which also drives market growth. In addition, aluminum is easily recyclable, further contributing to high demand, especially in the packaging industry.
According to the International Resource Panel, the per capita use of aluminum in 2010 was over 80 kg, with developed countries recording levels in excess of 350 kg. Developing nations have a low per capita intake of 35 kg of aluminum, but this figure is growing with the rapid growth of industries in developing economies. With more than 60 million metric tons of aluminum produced worldwide in 2018 alone, the demand for aluminum die-casting machines is expected to rise at the same time as the per capita consumption of aluminum increases.
Market Segmentation
The United States Aluminum Die Casting Machine market has been segmented into product types and industry verticals.
By product type, the United States Aluminum Die Casting Machine market has been segmented into High-Pressure Die Casting (HPC), Low-Pressure Die Casting (LPDC), and others. High-Pressure Die Casting (HPC) is the largest segment as HPDC is employed for over two-thirds of aluminum die casting. HPDC offers a short casting cycle time and smooth surfaces and is well suited for automation. They have higher investment and operating costs, and the finished products made using HPDC machines have low strength values than products made using LPDC machines. Low-Pressure Die Casting (LPDC) is excellent for casting aluminum when strength and intricate patterns are needed. It is also more efficient in terms of metal utilization but casting time is slow, significantly reducing demand. LPDC is used for high-density applications, usually for advanced engineering. The other segment includes vacuum-assisted HPDC and semi-solid metal casting.
By industry vertical, the United States Aluminum Die Casting Machine market has been segmented into automotive, power, building and construction, and others. Automotive is the largest segment as automobile manufacturers are increasingly looking to aluminum instead of steel and iron to produce parts. Aluminum is much lighter than steel and, thus, drastically improves the fuel economy of automobiles. This is a significant driver for the growth of the segment with rising costs of fossil fuels and a focus on electric cars. The use of aluminum in power lines, transmission cables, and power grids offers a better conductivity-to-weight ratio than copper. This growth of the segment can be due to the need to minimize transmission losses. Aluminum is used widely in building and construction for wiring, window paneling, and door fixtures due to its malleability, ductility, lightness, and resistance to corrosion. The growth of the global construction industry is driving the growth of the worldwide aluminum die-casting machine market, specifically, the high-pressure aluminum die casting (HPDC) segment. In the Others segment, aluminum is used extensively for utensils, in the aerospace industry, and in packaging.
