The Global Precision Ball Screw Market size is expected to reach $2.7 billion by 2031, rising at a market growth of 5.3% CAGR during the forecast period. In the year 2023, the market attained a volume of 2,748.6 thousand units, experiencing a growth of 5.3% (2020-2023).
Rapid industrialization, technological advancements, and a growing demand for automation across various industries in the Asia Pacific region characterize the market. Thus, the Asia pacific region acquired 49.1% revenue share in the market 2023. In terms of volume the Asia pacific region captured a volume of 6,569.0 thousand units in the market 2023.
Precision ball screws are known for their high efficiency in converting rotary motion into linear motion, resulting in reduced energy consumption compared to alternative motion control solutions such as hydraulic or pneumatic systems.
Additionally, Precision ball screws are used in medical imaging equipment such as MRI machines, CT scanners, and X-ray machines. These devices require precise and smooth movement to position imaging components accurately. Any disruption or malfunction in this can affect the quality of medical images, diagnosis, and patient care. Thus, the expansion of electric vehicles (EVs) and automation led to the expansion of the market.
However, Precision ball screws require high-quality materials to ensure durability, accuracy, and performance. The materials used, such as hardened steel or stainless steel for the screw shaft and precision-ground ball bearings, can be expensive, contributing to the overall cost of the component. Therefore, the increasing adoption of alternative technologies is obstructing the growth of the market.
