The global injection molding machines market size reached US$ 11.2 Billion in 2022. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 15.3 Billion by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 5.27% during 2023-2028.
Injection molding machines (IMM), or injection press, refer to mechanical equipment that injects molten materials, such as glass, metal, elastomers, and thermoplastic polymers, into a mold to mass produce identical items. They operate on multiple power sources, which offers flexibility, durability, higher accuracy, optimal strength, aesthetic appeal, and customization. On account of these properties, they are extensively used for manufacturing syringes, power tool housing, telephone handsets, car bumpers, disposable razors, and electrical switches. At present, injection molding machines are commercially available in varying system types, such as standard, multi-component, and liquid silicon rubber (LSR).
The widespread adoption of injection molding machines across various industrial verticals, including healthcare, automotive, consumer goods, packaging, and electronics, for producing precise polymer components with complex shapes, is driving the market growth. In line with this, the global outbreak of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic has intensified the utilization of injecting molding machines for manufacturing large quantities of medical supplies, such as air systems and syringes, which is acting as another growth-inducing factor. Moreover, the increasing demand for all-electric injection molding machines due to their various beneficial properties, such as minimal energy consumption, enhanced precision, high speed, reusability, and low maintenance, is contributing the market growth. Rapid technological advancements, such as the integration of the Internet of Things (IoT) and information and communication technology (ICT) solutions, to improve the manufacturing processes and overall product quality is further propelling the market growth. Other factors, such as rapid urbanization and industrialization, particularly in emerging economies, strategic collaborations amongst key players and the rising investments in the research and development (R&D) activities by the governments of various nations to introduce advanced automated machines are creating a positive outlook for the market.
