TechNavio today launched its report, Global High Speed Steel Metal Cutting Tools Market 2012-2016, based on an in-depth analysis covering the Americas, and the EMEA and APAC regions. The report aims to aid decision makers’ understanding of the present and future landscape of the market.
Commenting on the report, an analyst from TechNavio’s Engineering team said: ”There has been a rapid increase in the competition among the high speed steel (HSS) metal cutting tools vendors in the last few years. As a result of the increase in productivity in several developing countries such as Brazil, Russia, India, China (the BRIC countries), and South Africa, there is increased investment in high-quality and high-performance machines in these countries. This in turn increases the need for high-performance cutting tools. This increases the competition among the HSS metal cutting tools vendors, and thereby leads to a reduction in the overall cost of HSS metal cutting tools. Consequently, there is an increase in price wars among the players in the market. Moreover, with the advancement of technology, the cost of developing several basic HSS metal cutting tools is going down. Furthermore, vendors are focusing on the development of economically priced products in an attempt to tap the Micro, Small, and Medium-sized Enterprise sector. In addition, the emergence/availability of carbide cutting tools forces the HSS metal cutting tools vendors to reduce the price of their products to sustain their market share.”
According to the report, one of the main drivers is the increasing need to develop superior-quality products. As a result of the increase in customer expectation of high-quality products, HSS metal cutting tools have become indispensable in various industries.
Further, the report reveals that one of the major challenges in the market is higher product costs, which decreases investment in HSS metal cutting tools.
The study was conducted using an objective combination of primary and secondary information including inputs from key participants in the industry. The report contains a comprehensive market and vendor landscape in addition to a SWOT analysis of the key vendors.
