Report Description Table of Contents The metal heat treatment market was worth USD 18.3 billion in 2023 and will be worth USD 24.09 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 3.5% during the forecast period. The metal heat treatment market is growing due to the rising demand of several applications in automotive, Aerospace, Construction and basic heavy engineering industries where these heat treatment processes are required to enhance the metals. It is estimated that the annual production of the automotive industry will be more than 90 million cars by 2025, and heat treatment is one of the most important processes in manufacturing gears, crankshafts, and other engine parts. For instance, Bodycote, a heat treatment service major in 2023, increased the vacuum heat treatment portfolio to support aerospace as a growing industry demands high strength and lightweight materials. Also, newer technologies such as additive manufacturing and advanced manufacturing technologies have emerged, thus stressing the significance of commensurate heat treatment and techniques to enhance the properties of 3-D printed metal components, enhancing demand for this market. The metal heat treatment market holds great potential because of the increasing demand for electric vehicles and renewable energy, which require metal parts to undergo heat treatment processes for better performance and resistance. One key sector is the EVs market, which is expected to reach more than 30 million units by 2030 and will require parts like heat-treated lightweight alloys, the drive system, and battery components. In 2023, Sandvik developed a heat treatment technology for battery components in EVs, improving thermal and mechanical characteristics. Also, wind and solar energy have presented new opportunities in the market as more wind and solar projects rely on heat-treated metal components of turbines and structures. As industries move towards more high-tech industries in manufacturing, emphasizing sustainability, there will be an increasing need for more specialized heat treatment processes.
