The global metal cutting machine (MCM) market size reached USD 3.7 Billion in 2024. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach USD 5.4 Billion by 2033, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 4.17% during 2025-2033.
Metal cutting machines (MCM) refer to power-driven equipment used to change the workpiece to the required size and shape by cutting or removing unwanted sections. Laser, waterjet, flame, and plasma are some common product types. These machines are widely used in various applications to cut different ferrous and non-ferrous metals to produce a finished product of desired geometry. MCM offers numerous advantages to finished products, including closer dimensional accuracy, complex shaping, surface texture or finish, and required size. As a result, they find extensive applications across the automotive, construction, marine, aerospace, and electronics industries.
Significant growth in the automotive industry across the globe is creating a positive outlook for the market. MCMs are widely used for power cutting a range of interior and exterior components, such as door panels and chassis used in passenger cars and SUVs. In line with this, the widespread product adoption for manufacturing efficient, high-precision, and effective defense and aerospace components and equipment, including composites, engine parts, ignitors, rotary blades, and turbines, is acting as another growth-inducing factor. Additionally, the increasing utilization of plasma cutting machines that utilize an electrical arc to ionize and heat the gas to form a plasma used to cut conductive metals like stainless steel, aluminum, titanium, and copper is favoring the market growth. Apart from this, the launch of advanced metal cutting machines that offer increased performance and throughput, thicker cutting ranges, and high cutting speeds are providing an impetus to the market growth. Moreover, key players are focusing on introducing automation into their manufacturing processes to increase productivity and meet quality standards, which, in turn, is facilitating the market growth. Other factors, including extensive research and development (R&D) activities and the widespread product utilization in the electronics and electrical industry to cut springs, capacitors, motherboards, and circuit boards, are anticipated to drive the market toward growth.
