Anticipated growth in passenger traffic is expected to drive the aerospace parts manufacturing market in the coming years. Passenger traffic refers to the total number of passengers using airports, including those boarding and disembarking aircraft, calculated as the number of passenger miles traveled divided by the total distance covered during a specific period. The annual increase in passenger traffic necessitates the production of more aircraft, thereby driving the demand for aerospace parts manufacturing. As an example, in August 2022, the International Air Transport Association (IATA), a Canada-based trade association representing global airlines, reported a substantial 229.5% increase in international air traffic in 2022 compared to 2021, and a total air traffic increase of 76.2% in the same period. This surge in passenger traffic is a key factor propelling growth in the aerospace parts manufacturing market.

The increasing demand for commercial aircraft is anticipated to drive the growth of the aerospace parts manufacturing market in the foreseeable future. Commercial aircraft, designed for the profitable transportation of passengers or cargo, rely significantly on aerospace parts manufacturing for the production of high-quality and durable components. These components are crucial for achieving an optimized strength-to-weight ratio, contributing to the reduction of aircraft weight and fuel costs. As highlighted by Airbus SE, a France-based provider of aeronautics, defense, and space-related services, commercial aircraft sales reached 202,184 clients in 2022, reflecting an 8% increase from 2021, with 661 deliveries. The substantial backlog of 7,239 aircraft and 1,078 gross commercial orders (820 net) further underscores the robust demand for commercial aircraft, serving as a key driver for the growth of the aerospace parts manufacturing market.

The aerospace parts manufacturing sector is witnessing a surge in the adoption of technological advancements, marking a prominent trend. Key players in this market are strategically concentrating on innovating new technological solutions to fortify their market positions. A notable instance of this drive is seen in January 2023, when Plataine Ltd., an Israeli AI-driven manufacturing optimization solutions provider, introduced the 'FabricOptimizer.' This novel AI-powered solution incorporates a nesting around defect feature, uniquely engineered to empower manufacturers in automatically selecting optimal options and material quantities. This enables the creation of highly optimized cut plans tailored for specific kits, thereby addressing supply chain and labor force challenges through comprehensive process automation. The 'FabricOptimizer' plays a pivotal role in aerospace manufacturing by significantly minimizing errors, rework, and material wastage, thereby contributing to a continuous enhancement of the overall production process.

Key players in the aerospace parts manufacturing sector are embracing a strategic partnership approach to deliver vital communication services to individuals, businesses, and governments. This strategic collaboration involves leveraging each other's strengths and resources for mutual benefits and shared success. An illustrative example is the partnership forged in May 2021 between Kencoa Aerospace, a US-based aerospace and defense entity, and SyncFab. Their collaboration revolves around leveraging MFG blockchain technology to digitally streamline and fortify the manufacturing supply chain. This concerted effort aims at significantly improving the efficiency and security of the manufacturing process, presenting a Tier-1 solution that addresses industry needs. SyncFab, a US-based platform, acts as the bridge connecting aerospace, space, and defense buyers.

In August 2022, Trelleborg Group, a renowned Sweden-based provider of engineered polymer solutions for aerospace, successfully acquired MG Silikon GmbH for an undisclosed sum. This strategic acquisition is anticipated to bolster Trelleborg's standing within the aerospace sector by combining resources with MG Silikon, particularly amplifying the production capacity for airframe seals. Moreover, this move is poised to empower Trelleborg in broadening its range of silicone-based sealing solutions for cabin interiors. MG Silikon GmbH, headquartered in Germany, specializes in manufacturing aviation components and sealing solutions tailored for both aviation and industrial applications.
