Market Introduction
Metal injection molding is a flexible, cost effective process and innovative process that provides versatility to the product designers and production engineers while using metal alloys. Metal act as a good substitute for plastic and ceramics components that are incapable of performing as per the requirement. The metal injection molding focusses on quality, precision and is a process which is closely monitored to meet the requirements. When a metal alloy is chosen for a specific application, the geometry of the component gets limited by the cost of shaping operations. The metal injection molding helps in overcoming this issue with the formation of the net shape parts in the tool. The metal injection molding offer benefits like resistance to wear & corrosion, thermal stability, high mechanical strength, and dimensional stability.
Market Overview and Dynamics
The metal injection molding market in South America was valued at US$ 72.96 million in 2019 and is projected to reach US$ 120.77 million by 2027; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.6% from 2020 to 2027. Various advantages offered by metal injection molding, greater utilization of the technology by automotive and electronics industry are the key factors expected to drive the market. Metal injection molding is used to manufacture various medical components, surgical instruments ad orthodontics. Medical equipment manufacturers are designing and developing lighter and more intricate products with hard-to-machine materials such as austenitic, martensitic, and precipitation-hardened stainless steel, titanium, and nickel-free alloys. Instruments such as dissectors, knives, conchotomes, scalpels, and spreaders for minimally invasive surgeries are becoming lighter and offer greater freedom of movement. Metal injection molding is highly exploited by industries such as automotive, electrical, and electronics. It is highly utilized in the production of consumer electronics. Metal injection molding is gaining momentum in the electronics industry due to the rising demand for small and complex parts in the industry coupled with the increasing demand for the miniaturization of electronics devices.
However, high cost of raw materials may hinder metal injection molding growth in South America. Besides, COVID-19 is anticipated to cause heavy loss in South America economy. Brazil has the largest COVID-19 cases in the South America region, and is followed by Colombia and Argentina, among others. Disruptions in supply chain impacted the market growth negatively.
