The beval gear motor segment was worth over USD 1.41 billion in 2023 and is expected to reach USD 2.22 billion by 2032 with a CAGR of 5.3%. Bevel gear motors have established themselves as leaders in the gear motor industry due to their exceptional efficiency, versatility, and reliability across diverse industrial applications. Prominent for their ability to transmit power between non-parallel shafts at various angles, bevel gear motors offer precise torque transmission and smooth operation, making them ideal for environments where space constraints or specific angle requirements are critical considerations. Their compact design not only optimizes machinery layouts but also ensures durability under heavy loads and in harsh operating conditions, minimizing downtime and maintenance costs.
Based on rated power, the 7.5 kW to 75kW segment dominated about 50.04% market share in 2023 and is projected to reach a valuation of USD 4.77 billion by 2032. The 7.5 kW to 75 kW segment is expected to have a significant share and is growing significantly. 7.5 kW to 75 kW consumes little energy and provides excellent performance and increases overall productivity. It is used in marine, processing, manufacturing, assembly etc.
Based on End-user, the material handling segment accounted for over 22.61% share of the gear motor market in 2023 and is set to reach a valuation of USD 2.03 billion by 2032. The material handling industry depends heavily on the integration of gear motors. These motors are further valued because they manage to effectively convey high torques—the force necessary to run conveyor, lift, crane, and automated system movements that handle extensive, large masses of materials both dependably and accurately. Their robust construct features little or less downtime and low maintenance costs under difficult operating atmospheres.
North America is leading the market share of gear motor due to increased demand in the power generation sector and process industries such as chemical and mining. Additionally, the United States is the dominant country in the North American market as it has a well-established manufacturing sector compared to Canada. In addition, it is also one of the dominant players in the material handling industry.
North America: In terms of country, the US is dominating the North America Gear motor market with revenue of around USD 1.19 billion in the year 2023 and expected to reach around USD 1.91 billion by 2032. The U.S. has an industrialized base with a robust manufacturing sector, extensive use of gear motors in industries related to automobiles, food and beverage, aerospace, and industrial machinery.
