Registering a year-on-year growth of 3.7%, the global screw conveyor market is forecast to reach US$ 884.2 million by the end of 2022. Overall screw conveyor sales are slated to increase at a CAGR of 4.8% between 2022 and 2032, exceeding US$ 1,416.3 million by 2032.
Rising penetration of automation across diverse industries coupled with increasing demand for advanced conveying and material handling equipment is a crucial factor providing impetus to the expansion of screw conveyor industry.
Screw conveyors, also called auger conveyors, are innovative equipment employed to transport or move bulk materials, especially liquid and granular materials, from one part of the process to another. The primary function of a screw conveyor is to push materials.
Screw conveyors are employed in many bulk handling industries to convey materials discharged from centrifuges, mixers, or filter presses. The use of a screw conveyor enables the end users to improve the production quality as well as the packaging rate by incorporating innovative and integrated technologies. They significantly reduce costs, minimize need for extra laborers, and increase overall productivity.
Rising demand for food products due to population growth and changing eating habits is expected to positively influence screw conveyor sales during the forecast period. Screw conveyors are being increasingly employed in food and beverage facilities to mix raw materials
and transport them from one point in the process to another within a sealed, dust-tight system. This equipment ensures the safe and quick movement of raw ingredients throughout the manufacturing process.
Similarly, increasing usage across pharmaceutical, agriculture, chemical, and mining & metallurgy sectors will generate demand for screw conveyors during the assessment period.
Another prominent factor that will create lucrative opportunities for screw conveyor manufacturers is the development and popularity of energy-efficient and inexpensive screw conveyors.
The current perspective in manufacturing is moving towards a circular economy. In the manufacturing process, a material handling facility consumes a significant amount of energy, which can be optimized by a screw conveyor system while also enhancing productivity. It will make the process more economical and efficient.
Lighting, heating, cooling, machine drives, and peak-time operations are key areas where energy consumption needs to be optimized. End-use industries are increasingly focusing on reducing energy costs with efficient processes.
In response to this requirement, manufacturers of screw conveyor systems are introducing energy-efficient systems that are more effective in terms of energy reduction. For instance, key manufacturers are developing screw conveyor systems with advanced properties and custom designs that can reduce energy consumption by 15 to 20%.
The ecosystem of industrial automation has emerged as a prospering domain, supplying automated machinery to almost all the end-use industries, including chemical, food and beverage, and pharmaceutical. Automation of bulk material handling systems is beginning to emerge as a global trend in the screw conveyor market.
FMI has identified Europe to hold a prominent value share in the market whereas North America & East Asia are expected to create futuristic opportunities with a considerable growth rate. North America is expected to hold around 1/4th of the value share in the global screw conveyor industry.
