The Global vehicle Propeller Shafts Market Size is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.6% from 2021 to 2028. The global vehicles propeller shafts market size was valued at USD 7.7 billion in 2018 and it is projected to reach USD 10.8 billion by 2028. The growth of this market can be attributed to increasing vehicle production and sales across the globe. In addition, stringent emission norms are expected to drive up demand for industrial machinery and equipment with a propeller shaft in order to reduce emissions from such machines.
Vehicle Propeller Shafts are shafts that transfer power from the engine to move a vehicle. The propeller shaft is comprised of two parts, called universal joints - one near each end of the assembly. They allow for angular movement in any direction and together with the bearings they also provide radial support at both ends so there's no sideways motion between input and output sections (i.e., you can't push off on an outside wheel while turning left).
On the basis of Types, the market is segmented into small series, medium series, and heavy-duty series.
The small series vehicles propeller shaft is the most popular type of vehicle propeller shaft. It is used for small-sized, less powerful engines in cars and trucks with an engine capacity that ranges from 600cc to 1400 cc. Smaller motors require smaller prop shafts because they do not produce as much torque or power; thus making it necessary for a more durable material like steel instead of aluminum which would bend easily under pressure. One advantage this has over other types of vehicle prop shafts is durability due to its heavier weight and sturdier build quality. This means there are fewer occurrences where these need repairs or replacements, reducing costs while increasing availability for consumers.
The medium series vehicles propeller shaft is a Propeller Shaft that has an Average Thrust capacity from 20 kilonewtons to 100 kilonewtons. Medium Series Vehicles are mainly used in machinery & equipment, manufacturing, and automotive applications. Applications of the medium series vehicles propeller shaft vary based on many factors such as size range or type of application. Medium series vehicle propellers have an average thrust capacity ranging from 20 kilonewtons to 100 kilonewtons so they can be applied across a wide variety of industries for various purposes.
Heavy-duty series consists of gears that are transmission and power steering system related. An example is a heavy-duty gearbox in a bus chassis, which may consist of one or more propeller shafts to couple it with the rear axle(s). The engine powers these shafts via input from its crankshaft.
On the basis of Application, the market is segmented into Automotive, Manufacturing, Machinery & Equipment, and Other.
Vehicle propeller shafts are used in various types of vehicles, such as cars and trucks. In most cars the use is to transmit power from one end of a car's axle to another; this can be either consecutively through two or more axles (in which case it would also serve as an intermediate drive shaft) or directly from differential gearbox outboard towards wheels on each side of a vehicle with live front and rear axles so-called "live-axle" design.
Vehicle propeller shafts are used in various manufacturing applications and industries. For example, vehicles use car propellers to drive axles and gearboxes, while industrial equipment typically uses long-shafted vehicle propeller shafts for power transmission purposes. The automobile industry is the largest consumer of these parts worldwide. Automotive manufacturers have been using more aluminum alloys than steel due to their lightweight properties since 2001 because they offer a better weight distribution among different components on the engine block. While it might be true that one or two light-duty cars per year will still require steel proper shafts with standard hub sizes, most production lines run an automated process where operators only load onto trucks either 15 feet (about 250 pounds) of aluminum shafts or 25 feet (about 500 pounds) of steel shafts.
Machinery & Equipment is one of the leading applications for vehicle propeller shafts. Propellers are used in a wide variety of industries, such as automotive manufacturing and construction. The shaft is mounted on the power source and provides rotational motion to other parts that require energy to turn them. It can be found anywhere from an automobile assembly line to various types of machinery in industrial settings with high torque requirements. The use of vehicles propeller shafts in Machinery & Equipment has increased due to their ability to withstand heavy loads while providing the necessary speed for many rotating devices. Due largely part because specialized engineering design, these components provide smooth changes between gears by effectively transmitting large amounts of torque and turning at higher speeds than smaller components.
On the basis of Region, the market is segmented into North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and Middle East & Africa. The North American region has the largest market share of global vehicles propeller shafts followed by Latin America due to increasing demand for automotive parts in these regions.
The most important factors driving these global vehicle's propeller shafts are:
